Due to an increase in the amount of spam I’ve been having coming through the server, particularly since I opened up user registration, I’ve decided I needed to take some extra measures to verify that those wishing to register or comment are, in fact, human.  Or, at least, aren’t spambots.  To this end, I’ve installed […]

If you’re seeing this post, instead of a generic failure page for the site, then my DNS has successfully propogated, and you are seeing The Last Exit to Babylon on our new server.
The recent outage was the kick in the pants I needed to finally get things moving.  It’s been a great run with my […]

My apologies if things got a little weird here at the Last Exit to Babylon tonight.  I’ve been wanting to make some changes to the layout, and first needed to redo how the left and right sidebars were handled behind the scenes.  That led to some interesting issues while I swapped in and out multiple […]

So as you might have noticed, I launched the new version of The Last Exit to Babylon. We’re now running under WordPress. I’m far from finished, however. Many of the old posts still need to be edited, as the importer didn’t handle the “autotags” that Geeklog used to generate internal links. […]

Things have been pretty slow here at The Last Exit to Babylon, I know. There’s a good reason for this, though. I have managed, despite getting caught up in watching too many movies and reading too many comic and books, I have made some real progress on redesigning the site itself. I’ve […]

I am pleased to announce I have found my new niche on the internet. I am the number 1 google result (at least at this very moment) for “worst rock star ever.” I think that really says something about my ability to play Guitar Hero 2. Unfortunately, the label really doesn’t fit […]

Well, it looks like that was the most painless DNS-related work I’ve ever done. All five of the domains I own were transferred successfully to Namecheap by Monday morning. I found their interface much easier to use than Registerfly’s when I went in to configure the DNS and email forwarding. A few […]

Things may get a little bumpy here for the next few days. I’ve decided on a new domain registrar, and will be starting the process of moving all of my domains away from Registerfly in a few minutes. My apologies for any downtime this causes; hopefully it’ll be as swift and painless as […]

Well, it looks like I am definitely going to be switching domain registrars. As I mentioned before, Registerfly has been giving me a number of problems in recent months, culminating in the inability for anyone using Cox broadband in Oklahoma City to resolve any hostnames in my domain or in Jessika’s. While I […]

This week’s Lost recap was delayed for a night by technical difficulties. Things seem to be back to normal now, but for those few who are interested, here’s what happened.
First off, I have paid the price this week of the dual sins of smoking around my computer and never cleaning the damn thing out. […]
