Server Migration
Apr 16
Well hopefully nobody noticed but I migrated my website to another server and so far all seems successful. Since I bought Jackie a new laptop, I now have her old PC for my new server. I gave it a few upgrades and we are good to go. My old server was actually my first pc ever. For those of you who don’t know, I had no idea what right click meant until about 5 years ago.. and now I am a network admin.. crazy… but yeah, It started out a 750 k7 processor with 256 megs of ram and a 20 gig hard drive. It has since then moved to 1.3GHz Duron with 768megs of ram and a raid 0 80 gig array with about 100 gigs of non raid storage. Everything is completely maxed out. nothing can be upgraded higher, all ports are full. Now I am on a Dimensions 4550 with 1gb ram and roughly 500 gigs of total storage and a 2.8 Pentium processor. So stuff should be running a little faster. I haven’t decided what I am going to make my old server into yet.. maybe a dedicated apache webserver, or maybe Ill keep it for a museum for later on in my life.. not sure yet. But, overall, as with any migration, this one seemingly went off without a hitch. If there was something that someone accessed that isnt there anymore or something that is not working, please let me know, I did my best to make everything identical but this server was soooo old and had so much garbage on it that it is possible that a setting was overlooked.
Why is it that everybody on the road must be such dick heads. What I am talking about is I will be driving down Hall Road and I will need to merge.. I will put on my blinker.. and what does the person in the other lane I am merging into do.. THEY SPEED UP so I cannot get over.. here is my question… WHY? What did that just accomplish.. Because they sped, I still got over and cut them off, then they tailgated me. OK, if I can’t see the headlights of a friggin truck when I am in my puney car… there are some problems.. so how does that make me feel.. I get worried.. so I slow my car down to about 35mph, then this guy has to start yelling at me cause I am going soo slow.. well if he didn’t speed up I would not of had to cut him off and if he didn’t tailgate me then I wouldnt go really really slow and then this guy would not of blown a blood vessel in his head while yelling at me.
Now I understand I am partially to blame for this.. but could you imagine a drive to work where when you put on your blinker.. someone let you over, or at a 4 way stop and it was your turn.. that you could just go. Or how much faster the express way would go if people wouldnt ride the person in front of them so close that nothing can come between them and the car in front of them.. Why cant people just relax. I think I have found the reason.. I ran a little experiment the other day.. Day 1.. I didnt use my blinker, cut people off, didnt let anyone get infront of me, and flipped off everyone that attempted to get in front of me.. Day 2 I let everybody in.. blinker or not, kept my 4 second distance between me and the car infront of me and randomly waived to people as they were passing me. Then end result.. I ended up at work 2 min later on day 2.. So it does save you time.. the only thing was on day 1 I was 2 min earlier but I felt like ripping everyones heads off.. on day 2.. I was clam, plesant and happy. Could you imagine how much nicer things would be if everyone just followed the traffic laws?……….
