    Sorry about that, folks

    I had a financial meltdown this past month and I needed to get everything off of my old servers, they were costing me $198/mo and I could not afford another charge attempt (costs me another $66 in bank fees just to have an item overdraft and then get returned). A friend of mine and I now...

    New web server software... growing pains... various things like that

    Recent 20 hour downtime was unscheduled, prompted by repeated deaths of Apache, our former web server software. I finally got fed up with it and decided to ditch it entirely. I'm now using a new one called nginx and it's taking some time to tweak it to get it all working again. Please excuse...

    Wii

    You got one yet? If not, what are you waiting for?! (Not in the literal sense, I mean GO GET IT NOW) Traded in an old busted computer I bought at Best Buy for store credit and got it & an HDTV. It is the most refreshing gaming experience I've ever encountered. I would recommend this to my...

    Downtime around the 31st - hard drive upgrades

    Servers will be receiving new, bigger, faster hard drives some time today, and that will mean a short downtime as I move stuff. Not sure when they will do it though. Shouldn't be too long.

    Old DOS games that you never thought would last this long in your collection

    For me, it's Tyrian. It's an upward-scrolling, space flyer shooter game. The main attraction I have to the game is the endless possibilities for destruction. You have a wide selection of weapons (several different types for each of a front gun, rear gun, and left and right sidekick weapons or...

    A sign of more to come

    Repairs, that is. So, I was driving along one day at about 35mph, the car started vibrating pretty violently. The steering wheel was shimmying rapidly. I stopped the car, took a look at the tires... the front left one was running extremely low, so I figured I'd just go get the tires filled...

    How can you tell when a tranny is about to go?

    I think my transmission is slipping. When I am shifting gears or after stopping sharply, pressing on the gas will make the engine (transmission?) rev up high for about a second and then jerk back down and then the car will lunge and then start going. Is it gonna blow?

    What would cause a motherboard to just stop posting

    I bought a Gigabyte GA-7n400 Pro 2 some time ago for my dad's computer. Well, after several reboots, it just suddenly stopped booting up. Swapping out all the hardware didn't make any headway, and the speaker did not give me any signs as to what was the problem. A dozen CMOS resets, a few cries...

    Radeon 8500 AIW 128, only came with a driver disk

    I find out that I can buy the video in/out cords and the original MMC disk on ATI.com for about half the price of the difference from what I got and getting the "full-on" white-box version that came with all the cords and disks. (btw: got it from www.emicrox.com - don't go there :rolleyes: )...

    How do you hold your mouse?

    Got me a new mouse, thanks Postal :D Intellimouse Optical. It's a purdy white and silver. :beerbang: I hold mine in a diagonal fashion, as shown in the attached pic. The reason for that is that there is a button on the right side that it's hard to reach when I hold my mouse in a vertical...
