So long “Chronos”, it’s been one hell of a five year (going on it’s sixth) ride. All the abuse you took from me, being more or less on 24×7, overclocked from 3.2GHz to 4Ghz, watercooled, and on it’s 4th motherboard and second CPU. This computer has carried me through countless nights of Starcraft and Counter-Strike, [...]

4 years, over 100 grand, and endless repetition “you must use your e-mail account”, then after graduating and 6 months later, they delete it. I was too busy in the midst of relocating my life halfway across the country, never mind accepting a new job the education helped to provide, and now my account was [...]

More updates working on implementing a mod_rewrite\Apache implementation of mod_secdownload – just finished coding in a public key encryption verification for the script, basically the same method as implemented in mod_secdownload. Whew, I’m pooped, goin’ to sleep.

Here’s the problem. I have a handful of files between 500MB-800MB that I need to host up on my website. I need to get these files to people that belong to a certain vBulletin community, and only people of that vBulletin community. Furthermore, the people of that community aren’t the sharpest knives in the drawer, [...]

Recently ordered up a pair of Opteron 280‘s to stick in my GT24 – looking forward to having a dev box. Too bad it doesn’t support hardware virtualization – otherwise it’d be an ESX box. Additionally, here’s a picture of the live network traffic on my box – it is generated with MRTG and cron [...]

If you’re running a CMS with dynamic redirection using mod_rewrite on DreamHost, you may run into a problem trying to access your statistics – since the .htaccess file specifies files and links, and not server configuration redirects like the /stats/ directory, you can be in a bit of trouble. When you try to access the [...]

For those of you on shared hosting with Dreamhost – we all know they’re oversold up to their eyeballs. While the prices are great and the proposed services offered are even greater, their servers are overloaded and very slow. Very very slow. I took a dive into their wiki today and found this gem: PHP [...]
