Of course now that I've commited to the server move, this one has been amazingly fast (from my perspective at least.) This is in comparison to the very slow speeds I had been seeing for the last few weeks. Oh well. I'll be curious to see how the new server does. It's actually a less powerful machine, but under orders of magnitude less load. I'm figuring it will be an improvement, but if it's only as fast as this one is right now I'll be happy.
The new server is up. If everything goes correctly this domain will be transfered tomorrow. This might mean (well, ok, probably mean) the site will be unreachable for up to 24 hours. I'll post again when I'm more sure, but it looks like tomorrow will be the day.
Should we stockpile canned goods?
Scientists predict at least a 12% chance that this could bring on the end of the world. Despite this data, digitalmediatree executives were quoted as being "optimistic" about the move. "We know that every previous move has resulted in massive data loss and corruption problems, followed by weeks of guilt, doubt, and the inability of our technical staff to even get out of bed in the moring at a reasonable hour," the dmtree CIO said in a hastily called press conference, "but this time it's going to be different!" In response to a barrage of technical questions from both shareholders and the press, the CIO restated his case in the strongest possible terms: "no, really!"
In unrelated news Wall St. sent the stock tumbling in after hours trading. Rumors of a massive write off involving several trips to Lupa and some devastatingly expensive Italian wines were noted by key analysts. "We're not so concerned about the server move, it's that highly leveraged position in Quinteralli that could cause real problems."
you're funny
You mean like funny ha-ha, right?
Right?
I'm right on the deadline. Waiting to see if the move will go through tomorrow or Friday. This is a little stressful.
