"Underline your links, you psychopath ". I may have imagined this, but I could SWEAR this was a comment from Adrian Roselli. Whatever, I agree. Anyway, it seems like the psychopaths have the upper hand - too many links out there without underlines to this day.

To whoever decided to use the track “Nobody Speak” by DJ Shadow featuring RunThe Jewels in Coyote VS ACME, take a mother-bleeping bow. I can’t remember the last time I lost my shit completel, laughing to the point of crying in a cinema. Bravo.

In case you’re wondering why that is so funny, go listen to that track. Then, realise they deliberately chose a swear-ridden track for the sole purpose of them bleeping it out. With Road Runner’s beep. There was a lot of beeping going on. Fucking hilarious!

A teeny-weeny bookmarklet update: I have rolled the 1-Click De-Crapulator into the Element Inspector tool. I often found I would use Element Inspector, and then immediately fire up the De-crapulator. So, merging the two seemed the logical thing to do: a11y-tools.com/bookmarklets...

After a long time trying, I finally sold my motorbike today. However, let’s just say that I didn’t have high hopes of the buyer actually taking it away without incurring an injury or damaging the bike!

He said that he had a ramp for it, but with the height of the van, and the short length of ramp, it was an almost 45° angle! And that’s a heavy, 900 CC motorbike to get up there. Thankfully, there were some spare pallets.

TPGi (or Vispero, I should say, as TPGi no longer exists as a brand/company) have been up to their tricks again. Last year, a whole bunch of technical articles were removed from their blog, articles that had been there for years and with many, many incoming links.

I hope that other ex TPG/TPGi folks are able to do the same with their own articles, as there are some really good articles that have been lost in this latest cull. And if that's you, please add a link to updated pages in a reply :)

I really don't get the thinking behind this, it makes no sense to me. Anyway, thanks to the Wayback archive I have found all my old articles and re-homed them on a11y-tools.com: a11y-tools.com/blog/categor...

I doubt that they will make another reappearance on the Vispero blog, so if you have ever referred to any of these/linked to them, please update your links to their new home :)

I moaned about it, as did a number of others and thankfully they were restored. Sadly, I noted the other day that all of my articles have been removed again, along with tonnes of other articles. Fool me once, and all that ...

I just spent an hour and a half fighting with CSS in a WordPress post, trying to debug why a local style was not overriding a global style, despite it having greater specificity and with no typos. It was as if the style was not there at all.
