There were lots of peeps in the chat tonight. Welcome to the site all you new peeps. If you need any help getting started feel free to contact @paul or just talk with anyone in the chat.

P.S. If anyone still wants to donate for the memory upgrade chips @news #932 feel free to donate with paypal by clicking on the donate link above the latest 12 list. So far @twisted is the only donator besides @imk2 who regular donates.

Server Update and Info

· · 🌡️ 52°F

I updated the server but didn't get to upgrade it much. I did however get to clean out a nasty bunch of dead bug bodies that had somehow gotten inside it.

I purchased some more RAM for the server but it didn't come yet so I will have to make another trip over to artvoice soon. Now we will have a full 2GB of ECC 800mhz RIMM chips which should be enough for anything.

They ended up costing (Approximately US $194.96) on ebay. If anyone wants to donate it would be awesome. Just click the donate button above the top ten list and you can donate with paypal. This should be the last memory purchase for this server because that's the max it takes.

For some reason all of these little fruit flies lived inside the server but died. I am not sure what is unsustaining about a hot plastic.

There is still lots of space but I wouldn't mind upgrading he drives to some speedier ones. The ones in there are compusa specials.

The CPUS - all four of them seem fine - the spikes are something from the x windows programs that were running. The server doesn't usually have x windows running.

HEre is the server's new home

This is the artvoice internet pipeline and where the server used to live on the basement floor. I am so glad it lives upstairs now.

Thursday Night Downtime

· · 🌡️ 43°F

On Thursday night the the site will be down for a while after 6PM in order to perform some routine maintenance on the server. We are going to be relocating the server from one floor to another at Artvoice, then I will be doing some backups and upgrades followed by bringing the site back up. During that time, the site will be unavailable.
