On 12/1 Dean indicated there would be a spec sheet for accounts posted soon: http://forum.textdrive.com/viewtopic.ph … 044#p65044

On 12/13 he indicated it was coming as soon as he could "pry open a particular section of the textdrive.com rails site" (who knew it would be so hard to publish a page? Glad I don't use RoR :)

It's now Day 19... any sign yet?

I don't understand how pointing me to a deleted thread helps. I'm not being unpleasant-- I'm recapping the history for those who don't know it and asking if the promised spec sheet in question has been posted yet?

I even posted with a little smiley thing in there, like this ":)"

Sorry fncll! Have made you feel that way.

I just added one step further to the history. That thread was on 12/16 and was talking about the same subject. :)

fncll · 2005-12-19 20:01:27

Oh, I got it-- I thought you were sending a different "message" :) We'll see what happens-- I know TxD folks are busy, but they could just post the info to an announcement here (or the blog) in the interim...

Similarly, I didn't understand how deleting the thread helped. Because this new thread offers evidence the question will come up again.

But then, I don't understand much of anything anymore.

As I understand it, that thread turned rather nasty, and clearing that sort of thing out does seem to be a standing policy.

I took my first baby steps with Lisp the other day. I don't understand that I don't understand that I don't understand...

NO CARRIER

SaintNick · 2005-12-19 21:44:25

That thread did get awfully nasty. I was in the mix, and said a few things that I now sincerely regret. I'm just as happy that it's deleted - it's not nice to be reminded of when you're not nice.

Anyways, the message that I came away with was A) Don't hit the submit key unless you're really ready to piss someone else off, and B) please be patient.

Just curious - why LISP?

I've taken that question into its own thread to help keep this one on-topic.

Dean · 2005-12-20 09:00:22

Oh, good morning. Here are specs for all VC accounts btw (these will appear at /vc whenever I get around to it):

2Gb disk space
15 domains

20Gb monthly bandwidth
In addition, all VCs will be required to:
"go commando" one day a month to their place of employ (or desk if they're SOHO)
learn the opening passage to Stairway to Heaven on ukelele

eat more bacon
That is all.

Neko · 2005-12-20 09:54:10

Whoa nice: my space has suddenly doubled!

Thanks Dean!

Just try to stop me.
I can learn, just let me find a uke.

More than?
And: just curious (I'll never use them all) is there a limit to databases for VC accounts? Is it different between mysql and postgresql?

Here you go. Always happy to be of service.

supersole · 2005-12-20 11:01:49

Thank you so much Dean! Nice and simple!

BTW what is that go commando thing?
Has it something to do with the fajitas?

ukelele... can it be a tracked thingie instead? (schism tracker rulez)

bacon? just ask for a complete english breakfast instead! XD

Fajitas? Yeah. Kinda. It's when one's fajitas are unfettered, or unconstrained if you will. Um, here.

BTW, since I'm here, and purely out of casual interest since I'm up to a whole 50MB right now, when do our disk quotas jump?

Turn 'em inside out, shake of talcum powder, good as washed ;-) Or so I've heard.

Great news on the new specs. However, what are we vegetarian Textdrivers to do? Can I just encourage my friends to make up for my lack of bacon consumption? :-p

supersole · 2005-12-20 12:01:32

Eat vegetarian burgers!

dhdesign · 2005-12-20 12:13:34

Thanks for bump in our quotas - it is very much appreciated!! :)

I'm one of the VC200, on One, but am still showing only 1 Gb disk space as my quota. Have all the VC accounts been upgraded to the new disk space/bandwidth/domain quotas yet, or is the process still going on?

Also, my VC offering gave us 20 mySQL databases. Will the amount of mySQL databases be increased as well, or remain at 20?

Are we allowed to drink beer? Once a month? Please?

joshua · 2005-12-20 14:32:58

that's awesome! What about the VC 1.1 (don't know how to call it, it was between VC I and VC II and has a much lower reputation ;)

Thanks Dean!

Hey, I'm two for three this morning! I'll set up the flickr group right away.

(Thanks, Dean.)

May I use that as my signature?

Cool! Nice and simple (and probably more than I'll ever need).

Thanks, Dean.

ccarlson · 2005-12-20 18:52:02

Does this upgrade happen to include the Lifetime Hosting Redux customers, as well?

(I don't mind if it doesn't, as I'm very happy with what my money got me. I'm just curious, is all...)

igeekrn · 2005-12-20 23:24:08

As a practitioner of cardiology, thank you Dean!

OH, and please pass the bacon.
