Lawsuit filed against SAFE act (Or, don’t get your hopes up folks)

Now I’m delighted to see this, BUT, unlike a certain someone (*cough*TTAG*cough*) I don’t assume that “OMG the JUDGE said there would be an INJUNCTION!!!” means that “the judge thinks the SAFE act is unconstitutional!!!!”.

Infact one article states:

After hearing motions in that case, state Supreme Court Justice Diane Devlin has ordered the state, represented by state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, to show cause before oral arguments on April 25 or face an injunction. An order to show cause is not unusual in these cases, however. In fact it’s standard procedure, said Devlin’s law clerk, Timothy Kane.

“These proceedings are always commenced by an order to show cause,” Kane said, adding that the state has indicated it plans to respond by mid-March.

Emphasis mine.

So yah.  Am I thrilled to see it taken to court?  Sure.  Am I getting all excited cause “OMG, WE’RE WINNING!!!!!”?   Nope.  Keep plugging away folks, we got a lot more work to do…..

Aren’t computers wonderfull?

My domain name and account with Machighway were set to expire as of tomorrow (3/1/2013). 

I’d set it up to auto renew.

About a month ago Machighway sent me a notice about time to renew….so I checked and confirmed that I was on auto renew, and then sent in a ticked asking why I was getting an bill when I was set to auto renew.  They said it was normal, and that yes, its set to auto renew.

This morning the site was fine.  An hour ago I went to log in to do up a post…..and I get a “domain name has expired as of 3/1/2013 Click here to renew!!!”  and I said WTF?

Called MacHighway, the nice guy who answered the phone said “but you don’t expire till tomorrow” and I said “yup, and the re-direct even says that, but its still today….” so he forced through the payment a day early and reset it……gotta love it when computers do their own thing!
