Site Status Update
As you all well know, the entire internet TWG broke this morning. The problem was the ratings system, it was breaking everything. Also, the watermarking was causing a problem. Also, the hotlinking was causing slowdowns. While they were all off one their own machines, those things didn’t cause much problems, but now that it’s just one dedicated machine…well, let’s just say that I didn’t purchase the ultra awesome hosting package, I got the budget package that came with budget RAM on a budget CPU. Leading to some ugly ‘500 internal error’ messages until I fixed a couple things.
Items removed to try to reduce server over head:
Buy Me A Beer – no one was buying me beer, I had to buy my own.
Link to my site – really? if you don’t know how to send a url you are internet retarded, which is worse than real world retarded. I’m not really too sure why I even installed this piece of code, other then I was bored/drunk.
Ratings – I’ll try to see what I can do to bring this back, but the ratings were raping the mysql server. I’ll try to talk the ratings dev guy to enable caching for this.
Hotlinking Images – had to turn this off. I originally thought I used about 10% of my monthly bandwidth in a single day, but I was wrong, I only used about 3%, but you can see where that might be a problem when 3% x 30 = 90% only giving me a 10% budget for overages. With the way that diggs/reddits/slashdots/boingboing/farks/stumbleupon spikes happen, I’d rather have a larger buffer between me and an extra $2,000 worth of bandwith.
tl;dr = removed features to fix MCS, some might come back, some won’t.

For the more trendy, a little pink top will be the best you do not forget the accessory that will make the difference: the false Stetson straw.

GAME OVER
“Life’s tough……It’s even tougher if you’re stupid.”
-John Wayne
Somewhere they are baby mice wondering when mommy and daddy are gonna come home.
After finding a good amount of mice droppings, and semi chewed ketchup packets in a draw in my kitchen. I decided to take action. I loaded up two old school snap traps with a bit of bread and poured ketchup on the bread. I left the traps in the draw and the next morning what i found totally caught me off guard. I guess mice have no problem with chowing down with a corpse in close proximity.
Purple Frog
The Purple frog, discovered just five years ago in western India, likely escaped detection because it lives underground, emerging for just two weeks during the monsoon season. Distinguished by a pointed snout, it’s related to a family of frogs now found only on the Seychelles islands, which split from India 100 million years ago.
Mantis Shrimp
Neither a mantis nor a shrimp, the mantis shrimp has changed little in 400 million years. It has the world’s most complex eyes, and its prey-killing claw motion is the second-fastest animal motion. To quote mantis shrimp eye researcher Tom Cronin, “Whenever they get into any type of situation, they smash things. You can’t pick these up. They’re really great animals to have around.”
