(no subject)

Today's balance was off.  So I checked, and found that the gym charge had been put through.  Good, I'd been waiting for that.  With a bit of fiddling (Keep The Change* is for debit, not credit, so I'd logged one transfer incorrectly), my balances matched.

Savings didn't, though.  It's off by $0.45, which is the KTC result of a groceries run.  I checked in all four or five sections for the savings account - no record.  It shows in the checking section, though.  Which probably means it just hasn't reached savings yet.

*siiigh*  This is beyond irritating.  But, go me for still doing it, I suppose.  If nothing else, I'll get a better understanding for how BofA claims to work.

* For every debit purchase: Savings += Round($purchase + 0.5, 0) - $purchase

When I buy something that's $19.55 using my card as a debit card, KTC puts $0.45 into my savings account.

X-post, naturellemente.

It just now occurred to me to look at this "crosspost" option on the update page.  I assumed it was for posting to other communities, and so didn't look at it at all.  Silly X!

So, this here is a test of Dreamwidth's crossposting feature.  I already know it works, as synecdochic has been using it - when I say "test" and am referring to here, I mean more like "I've never used this and so want to make sure I'm doing it right".

If I am well pleased with this, this will totally aid my moving over to DW entirely.

Actually, now I'm curious as to what happens if I tick "Crosspost this Entry" and select no accounts.  Seems a bit odd to have that be its own tickybox, when there are tickyboxen for each of the crossposted accounts.

[eta] Either it goes slowly, or it is not crossposted at all.  Sooo, let's edit the post and tick my LJ account's item.

[eta2] Hm.  Welp, I dunno!  I hear this feature is still in alpha.  I'll go check dw_news posts to see what I can see.

Ein zweiter Versuch.

This is me doing that xposting thing, now with the LJ account ticked and the xpost box not.

Also, I notice that when I do <lj user=news>, it changes to dw_news.  Awww bless.  I love clever things.

And in completely different news...

Firefox 3 is ♥.  Today's adoration is for how it remembers what phrase I typed to get which URL.  For example, when I type 'rea', it pulls up the Google Reader URL, and when I type 'read', it brings up my reading page here.  *claps hands*

I had to train it a lot to get that example, though, as I'd spent ages typing in 'rea' and 'read' to get Google Reader.  Fifty million times later, I finally trained it to distinguish between the two URLs.

You know what's fun?  By which I mean to say, fun for me?  Installing SQLite Manager, and watching the phrase/URL counts change.

* Install that addon.
* Go to Tools > SQLite Manager.
* Go to Database > Connect Database.  This is where I go to; yours may be different:
  C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profile folder]\
* In there, open places.sqlite.
* Click on the Execute SQL tab, and type this query in the box:

select h.input, h.use_count, p.url
from moz_inputhistory h
left join moz_places p on p.id = h.place_id

* Filter on whatever you like to get the results you need.  Using my above example, I'd want to see everything where I type in at least 'rea' to get it (covering both 'rea' and 'read'):

select h.input, h.use_count, p.url
from moz_inputhistory h
left join moz_places p on p.id = h.place_id
where h.input like 'rea%'

I still don't know why the numbers aren't integers, and why there are sometimes multiple entries for the same URL.  But hey, tinkering!  I like tinkering.  And I love SQL, so, bonus.

Ramblings.

* I, for one, am impatient for when Semagic totally works for DW.  It is an unreasonable impatience, and yet here I am.

* Today's "poly happy moment" - when I learn that both my partners are ahead of me in Gemcraft.  My arms are broken and it's really hard and shut up!  *amused*

* Whenever I get too opinionated about parenting, I go reread The Story About The Baby, and I realise (a) until I have a child, I am full of it, and (b) bwahaha.
