Having an IM conversation with someone in Iran, turns out they "hate" Bush...so random. But I had to reply, "that's why I voted for Obama" 6 hrs ago
Looking into another VPS hosting plan. My contract is almost up and I’m leaning on going back to (mt) more than anything. I do wish I had the money for a dedicated box that I could host somewhere, I think I might ask about leasing a rack at my work. Which will be very unlikely, I might have a better chance sneaking it in. [Link] (0)
For some reason or another I could not find good documentation on installing Subversion and Trac on fc6 while also using Apache so I’ve simply just documented what I’ve learned and just implemented on my own system.
This tutorial is about the installation of a development enviroment on FC6 it’s not a how-to for using it. If you need to know more I recommend reading Version Control with Subversion (I just ordered it).

You need to install these packages before we start…
Sequential-Access drives are different than Direct-Access drives and need to be treated as such. For a while now I had always thought differently because my experience with tape was only on OS X Server. And those machines had programs that managed the tape drives for ease of use.
With a little knowledge under my belt I know differently and now I’m passing it on:
The 2.4 kernel has built-in SCSI support so you may want to upgrade. I’m using SLES 9 and…
After posting this on Twitter:
Whoever is recommending dotster for hosting and domains please stop. Sorry, but if you’re not ignorant you’re an idiot.
Jared asked, “What’s wrong with Dotster?”. LOL, I had forgotten he uses it.
I was requested to setup a client’s outlook to receive email from one of his many domains he purchased through Dotster today and I anticipated it to take a few minutes since he already had a server/hosted plan. Nope, it took forever and I found out a…
It’s been a long time since I used FeedLounge and I’m sad to see the doors closing. It was truely a great app, maybe not the best service but the functionality was everything you’d need out of an online RSS reader.
After hearing I commented on Alex’s site:
Sadly I think the only logical option would be to opensource the project. For everyone to use on their own server and help contribute to fix the bugs and increase the overall functionality. Then…
Just finished setting up all the blogs I host to update wp using SVN. What a relief it is to have all those installs up-to-date and knowing I’ll never have to manually update them again. I went ahead and setup a cron to run a daily update so from now on my site will be updated before we even here of the new release.
One of my tasks this week was to setup a web server for some sites currently hosted on the tragedy of the grid. I don’t want to talk about the (mt) grid since I’ve said so much about it before but to answer “why?” I’m still on the grid for production sites is, I’ve been too busy to migrate them and at one point I was going to put them on a spry VPS but my DB was too large for their…
I upgraded my server yesterday to the VPS300 plan at Spry. My old server was being hit pretty hard and wasn’t managing to serve the pages at a decent speed, actually if you made a visit in the last few days you would have thought the server was down. I was told with the upgrade my server would be placed on a different nod that has fewer servers so I should see a big performance boost. From what I can…
