Are you ever going to offer increased disk space and/or domains? I am pushing the limit of both (1.9G and 18 domains, respectively). Or will I have to signup for a second plan?

Sure, as everyone is moved to centralized storage this month there will likely be a bump in disk space.

Is this something we should expect from modern hardware? I expect it to shorten the lifetime of the machine if you keep it running like that, but to outright fry a processor seems like bad cooling to me...

Fry is probably not the right word. They're not literally "fried", they're figuratively "fried": do stuff to it so that you need to take it back to basics.

Electronics run on smoke. When you let the smoke out, they quit working. Fried is as good an adjective as any I can think of.

my bet is he's got it scripted already (or has an access to a vanity fair subscriber)

His wife most likely subscribes to vanity fair on the quiet and he just happens to stumble upon the magazines in the "throne room" ;)

After listing to the Typo/Lighttpd/Daedalus/FCGI woes, what is your recommended method for installing Rails apps (and checking that the server is up)?

Of course I've read the textmanual, but it seems like blindly following those instructions is the cause of many problems. Julik posted a nice ruby-based solution in this thread, which seems like it could do The Right Thing with a minimal amount of cleanup. Of course he also wrote the essential, yet underpublicized Rails guide which needs to be shouted from the mountain tops.

Also, UnLogikal pointed out this message about graceful lighttpd restarts. Any plans for rc.lighttpd access in the near future?

I know TextPanel will make Lighttpd/FastCGI/Rails butter-smooth, but I'm guessing a few gurus around here could put together a rock solid solution for the common man to nip some of these server problems in the bud. Put in the knowledgebase and begin the re-education process. What say you Jason?

dasil003 · 2005-10-26 22:22:49

Well I cleaned up julik's code, see this thread.

Okay. Well, then, that raises the following questions:

Favorite album?

Favorite composition?

Favorite solo?

Favorite combo? (And, yeah, I know this one will likely be Tyner/Garrison/Jones, but I still have to ask.)

Wow, so structured for Coltrane.

Anything on with the Thelonious Monk Quartet. Listening to My Favorite Things, July 1966, Sankei Hall, Japan along with the original Atlantic recording (there's a difference). It feels like a clich

I actually hear lotsa structure in his stuff, but maybe that's just me. And then I know you know about his whole maniacally rigid practice schedule. You know, the classic tight-on-the-inside-loose-on-the-outside sorta deal.

jason wrote:

Yes, yes. Monk's another favorite of mine. You've heard Live At The Blackhawk, right?
