Great Moments in Buzzco

A little context. I had mentioned saying screw this and moving to Prince
Edwards Island and starting a small company a couple days ago. This morning
while buzzco, eli, and I were complaining about work the following occurred.

Buzzco: Or we could just say screw it and move to prince albert island
Me: uhhh, maybe prince edwards island?
Eli: hahaha
That didn’t really translate well to a blog post but imagine this dear
reader. Buzzco singing and frolicking around on an island made entirely of
cocks. Then he trips….

I find the longer I leave this site alone the more likely it will be that I won’t update. I think laziness has a lot more inertia than I can deal with. Anyway, although I haven’t posted recently I’ve been doing a lot with this site. Unsure.org and a couple other sites are hosted on this server and although unsure only averages about 1,000 hits a day when I’m updating zetanu.net my fraternities alumni site takes a lot of hits. On top of that it’s running Mambo and MySQL which is not a light combination. The UML image I had it on just couldn’t take the load anymore and it was seriously starting to freak out. Needless to say I’ve upgraded. On top of having a speedier UML image I also upgraded from Debian 3.0 to ubuntu breezy. The change isn’t that huge but it’s so nice developing and hosting on the same platform. On top of that migrating from one to the other is pretty simple, certianly a lot easier than moving from sles to redhat or something like that. matt out.

That just sucks.

The file which you have started editing has got another timestamp and the
contents changed (more precisely: When reading the file again with the current
option settings and autocommands you would end up with different text). This
probably means that some other program changed the file. You will have to
find out what happened, and decide which version of the file you want to keep.
Set the ‘autoread’ option if you want to do this automatically.
This message is not given when ‘buftype’ is not empty.

There is one situation where you get this message even though there is nothing
wrong: If you save a file in Windows on the day the daylight saving time
starts. It can be fixed in one of these ways:

Add this line in your autoexec.bat: >
SET TZ=-1
Adjust the “-1″ for your time zone.
Disable “automatically adjust clock for daylight saving changes”.
Just write the file again the next day. Or set your clock to the next day,
write the file twice and set the clock back.

We’re talking about unchecked aggression, here!

I found a couple of old black and white photos at my clarkson webpage so I
thought I’d put them online.

That’s all I got.
