I've done beat myself up enough about it, so I'll just say...I lost everything from February 2015 onward. The database drive died and guess who didn't have a backup? Well, guess who has an automated backup solution in place now? Yeah. Sorry about that. :(

So, I was busy at work yesterday, and at about 7pm, I got emails that my passwords were changing on my Yahoo and Apple accounts. They were legit, as I could no longer log into those emails. My Amazon password got changed, too. I started freaking out and reset them all back, and called Amazon to...

I just upgraded OTC to XenForo so that we wouldn't be sitting ducks on an old vulnerable version of vBulletin. I installed a Shoutbox and finally copied all 32k old old shouts that I never put into the old new Shoutbox, as well as the 11k old new shouts. Please let me know of any and all...

Google AdSense has terminated my account with the standard canned explanation of "we think your account has the potential to generate invalid activity." Therefore, I have removed these ads from the site. At this time, I can't think of any other way to bring in revenue for the site, so nothing...

That '94 T-bird is starting to feel like it's got more miles behind it than ahead of it. (whoops, about 80,000 miles past that point, even) Problem is my credit sucks, so I don't know how likely I am to be rolling out of the lot with anything better than what I already got. Do I have any...

I'd like to develop stuff for Mac OS X and iPhone Been trying to throw Hackintosh on a dormant computer here, but no luck so far (tried two different distros with a dozen combinations of different settings). Just need some kind of Intel-based Mac, luckily I've already got the developer...

is because of me trying to optimize the server, or the server breaking, due to the popularity of a new online game I started... We've managed to pull together some donations there to buy a new heatsink for the spare processor that our host Andy has had laying in wait, and he is now ready to...

My main computer just bit the big one this morning. I shut it off overnight, turned it on this morning, went off to let it boot up, when I came back it was locked up. Went to hit the reset button and nothing happened. It won't post, won't beep, anything. Upon further inspection, I see the...

Hi all. I hope this doesn't sound too cheesy, but I am in a bit of a pickle, and it would be greatly appreciated if anyone has a bone or two to spare for me. I am finishing up my current job in the next 6 weeks, and looking for another one now. But I have a matter of rather immediate concern...

:beerbang: Have a good one, ya old fart =D

OTC had its 6th birthday while it was down. Damn domain registrations... :cuss: It feels like just yesterday we were starting this site, voting on the mods, looking for a new logo, and all of that fun exciting stuff. Seemed like everything would change completely from day to day. I miss all...

What does the scouter say about his post count?! :eyemouth:

I think I could really make a business out of running online communities like this and my game... What do you all think about it, and are you (or do you know of) a lawyer or experienced business owner that can tell me the basics, and what it means for me and for the community? I've googled it...

Did I spell that right? :beerbang:

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...

Just FYI, I talked with Sam and he said it was fine if I changed it to point to my Paypal addy. So if anyone donates, be sure to note your username in the message and I'll get you credited as a contributor as soon as I see it (which is usually within a day or two) If you donated before a day...

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...
