Over a break I decided to implement a simple cypher that I've been thinking about recently. Its' not much, and certainly not perfect in its current implementation, but it's sort of fun to play with. Check out my Rotate i page. What it does is uses a simple alpha slide cypher, but instead of shifting everything over a few slots (i.e. rot 13 moves things 13, or halfway across the alphabet) mine shifts it based on that character's index in th string. So the input string, "aaaa" wolud result in "bcde". Some issues I'm hitting are that you'll very quickly overlap the 255 eASCII characters, many of which are non-printing. To get around this, every 26 iterations I'm resetting the offset. Simple, but it's been working. I know of several better ways to do the normalizing, but that exceeded the bounds of my break time. I also kinda like seeing the e-ASCII stuff showing up. It makes it look more garbagey.

February! JUNE! FERBRUARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ::shakes fist grumbling, "februaryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"::
Too many people have invested too much time and effort in getting the February transition off the ground successfully. Fact is, at some point the switch has to be flipped whether or not people are ready. If they're not ready now, they'll lose their signal when the switch is flipped and run down to walmart and pick up their converter...or TV just isn't a big deal to them anyhow. I'm sure many of the broadcasters have support staff and a huge plan worked out for this transition and I'd venture a guess that this is all centered around the February date.
As for me and my family, we've had our converter for months. It's probably got 2 hours on it by now. (Shoutout to Hulu!)

For those WoW players, the RL Patch Notes will be familiar, for the non-wowwies, it should still be amusing.

Apparently everything i/we know about CSS is wrong. I somehow doubt that everything is wrong, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. And apparently everything he/she knows about keeping a server from blowing up is wrong. 
Avoid buynig #3 plastic, by the way ( thanks to Stuff you should know for the reminder)

- Obama has been president for almost 2 hours now and I'm not rolling in gold. I feel so cheated. #
