You can now follow “His Holiness, The 14th Dalai Lama Of Tibet” on twitter.

The twitter account is managed by “OHHDL” ,The Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

If you are like me then peace is the only thing you wish. To me, religion, color, race, status in society don’t mean anything. They are just reasons that fuel hatred today and are being leveraged but those in power to stay in power or gain more power. NO GOD WILL ASK TO KILL!! HE WHO CREATES WILL NOT DESTROY, HE WHO IS FILLED WITH HATRED WHO DESTROYS.

Well, before I get carried away again by my emotions. If you wish, you can follow the Dalai Lama on twitter at @OHHDL or visit him at http://www.dalailama.com.

Update: Sigh…. looks like @OHHDL could be fake. It’s currently  suspended.

After some digging around I found that my web server’s download speed was pretty low. WP 2.7 by default has a 30 second timeout set for it’s download function which I constantly kept hitting.

The workaround’s a simple hack to the file.php file in the /wp-admin/includes/ folder.

1. Download the file using over ftp or ssh. Depending on your hosting package.

2. Look for the line;

” $response = wp_remote_get($url, array(‘timeout’ => 30)); ”

and replace it with;

” $response = wp_remote_get($url, array(‘timeout’ => 60)); ”

function download_url() at wp-admin/includes/file.php

3. Upload the modified file back into the /wp-admin/includes/ folder. Overwrite the old file if you must.

You auto update should be working fine now.
