Some of you might have noticed that I had to basically re-publish my article earlier on the NASA film “Skylab – The First 40 Days.” This was due to WordPress, the blogging software used on Xadara, being a bit of a pain in the ass due to me having to edit a few things around. […]
I apologize that I don’t have more time to go into this in this article, but I wanted to throw this out there quickly enough for what it’s worth to other bloggers and those interested in the subject. Last year Photobucket began charging for the ability to hotlink images – something bloggers have been using […]
As I’m sure a regular reader will be able to tell, the past year has been quite an interesting one for Xadara. Not only did it mark the first full year of nearly daily writing, which I’m almost certain resulted in nearly 400 articles (in and of itself quite the achievement, I think) but it […]

This one is going to get a little bit technical, so try to keep with me. As with the vast majority of the web, this site is hosted on a Linux based server. Of course, like any computer, this has practical, and logistical limitations. My hosting package is pretty nice and quite liberal with what […]
Seems like every few months I have something happen with this site that makes me have to either nuke a feature, or go into some kind of emergency “find an old version and throw it on the server” moment. Previously, an update to my podcast management software of choice wound up no longer working with […]
I thought updating readers to plans for the upcoming month would be a good idea, and so, here we go! This will probably become a regular thing, if only to fill article space, so, eh, take it for what it is. First up, we have a return to sharing some old videos about various subjects […]
Update: The plugin has indeed had version 4.8.1 released, which seems to fix the issues present in the original 4.8 release.
