Everyone, meet … me

— Posted inUncategorized — 2 min read

I would like you all to meet mimismum, my secondary account. 😀 …


The reason why I am introducing her to MM's World is the upcoming demolition of the private message system. From next month, we can no longer use our beloved venerable PM, and have to use our new myopera.com mail account (No community BB code! :cry:)

The problem is, I can't use myopera.com mail, because I have _ in my username. 🙁 (Not the first time I was inconvenienced by this _ issue. First it was the Unite, then I was blocked from using Link, then, when I was testing the beta myopera.com mail, I was told my account will be deleted. :cry:)

Still, not giving in and sticking to my guns is the better option. As I stated here:

Why don't you just rename your current account

According to this post at the community developers' blog, '… content linked from within blog posts will still point to the old username.' So the links with old username would be broken if I changed my username. Not an acceptable option. Beside mimi_s_mum is a time honoured handle, used since 1998 at various internet services and forums. I intend to keep it.

So from now on, could you please use mimismum @ myopera.com (remove unnecessary spaces) to send me your email messages? That would save me from PMing your PM to myself for archiving in random order. Thanks. 🙂

    I know

  14. You sure took time to follow me back on Twitter :p 😆 I use Twitter more than announcement tool. I understand if you didn't want to have your inbox flooded with tweets about Wellington weather and NZ pop culture. 😉

    I just have not checked my followers for long time 😮 And if there has been some notice sent on new followers, I have just missed them.

  16. It's OK, Sami. I myself didn't know following back new followers was considered a Twitter etiquette for quite some time. I must've offended a few followers. ;)Did you, BTW, like my tweet about Peter Jackson and men with large biceps? 😀

    Yes, I have heard of that etiquette. However, who claims so has not really thought it through. At least I don't respect that etiquette. Instead I'm very cautious on whom I start to follow because I do not want to drown into all the information that I don't find useful. And I expect that also from my followers. If they find my post not interesting, then by all means it is better not to follow 😀

    Like 'We are about to be hit by the CME from the largest solar flair in several years? :DThose in the right areas may be treated with intensified aurora actions in sky. You're pretty north, may get lucky sky gazing. ;)Have a good day.

  19. Well, there on Google+ seem to be some sort of feature to adjust how much of someone else's posts yo want to see on your "main stream". But that does not seem to work at all :confused: I wonder if there's anything like that for Twitter. Although, it is pretty difficult to implement. There's not any straightforward way to define what posts have some personal interest and what are not.

    😆 Is going to their profile and reading what they've been tweeting not straightforward enough? :rolleyes:That's what I do every time I get a new follower. If what they offer is not interesting, I don't follow back. I may or may not tweet something like 'I'm not interested in someone who only want their follower number up' or 'I'm not interested in sport drink. Beside I won't follow back commercial tweets' So that the person takes the hint and unfollows me. Or they can stay following me if they are actually interested in what I tweet.I'm the curious type. I become interested in a lot of new things at drop of hat. I've found Twitter is a great tool for discovering something new and interesting. 🙂

    That's very true. I myself just need to start tracking those # tags more often :up: Currently there's very interesting comments going on concerning our presidential election.

    :groan: :lol:I'm glad I've never had one or never will. :p

  23. But it is interesting to see how peeps let their emotion to decide instead of rational thinking 😀 😆

  24. Originally posted by mimi_s_mum:

    Well, the wise man has said emotions are essentials to decision making.

    That sounds an interesting book :up:Originally posted by mimi_s_mum:

    we don't let just one person holding all the powers

    Well, president of Finland does not actually have any power either 😀 Almost only job is to manage the foreign affairs. And since we live in EU, it means the affairs with countries outside EU.

  25. Well, the wise man has said emotions are essentials to decision making. ;)What I meant was Japan has the emperor and NZ is a commonwealth under Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth II, so neither country has a president, ergo no presidential election. :yes: Either monarch is the figurehead of respective countries and has no power to influence country's policies, meaning we don't let just one person holding all the powers. I actually think that is more "democratic" than a republic state with a president. But what do I know about politics? :p

    Way to go :up:

    Hope whatever it was that put you in the hospital is not too serious, dW. @KelishaI had to look up the lyrics but your anthem's tune is very familiar to me. I hear it a lot on rugby test match coverage. ;)Shame about missing out on aurora sighting but I'll keep my eye on for future solar storm. 😀

  38. This business of no longer allowing certain characters in usernames has been really poorly handled by Opera. 🙁

  39. Hi, Mick. Thanks for popping in. :DOriginally posted by Mickeyjoe-Irl:

    Could have been better. At least they are still letting me blog and share pictures. So it's OK. 😉

    Well I made the mistake of going through with the change (Mickeyjoe_Irl > Mickeyjoe-Irl) and seriously knackered my blog.

    Yes. Your forum thread on that matter was a serious warning to me, which I'm very grateful of. I don't think I've ever thanked you for that properly. So, please allow me …Thank you, Mick!;)Originally posted by H82typ:

    just haven't got around to screwwing that up, yet.

    I know. Except I've observed some people accidentally call you glue :jester:

  46. That's the advantage of me choosing and old-school retro all lower case username. :p .

  48. Yes it is; it's the fault of this poorly selected typeface (too light and sans-serif [serif faces are more readable] ) plus the fact that the interlinear spacing ("ledding" to us old-timers) is too small, so you can't tell whether the ascenders and descenders are really all there."But it's set by a computer, so it must be right."BAH!

  49. Just another "digital compromise". I must admit that originally I thought it was glue, too many years in dark workshops working on very small things has not done my eyes any favours :eyes:

  50. I am rather fond of Tahoma myself, and of course, good old Arial :happy:
