Just moved entire new file storage array from test rack to production rack piece by piece with active test clients. No downtime. Cool stuff.

Just spent an hour+ listening to NETGEAR ProSafe support condescendingly claim a feature w/ an entire chapter in the manual doesn't exist.

Finally made them download manual off their own site. "Huh. We'll try to get somebody who's heard of this to call you back… eventually."

@unorigmoniker Use SFTP. In double-blind tests, prolonged use of FTP has been linked to irritability, bloating, and moodiness.

Everyone knows NearlyFreeSpeech.NET can't run native Rails, Node.JS, or CherryPy apps. Especially not all on the same site. Right? wtf.nfshost.com

Not sure the level of glee I experienced upon deleting the freebsd6 site realm was entirely healthy.

I will know problems are resolved when urge to vomit goes away. That switch stack had almost four years of continuous uptime. :(

In a rare field trip outside of the NearlyFreeSpeech.NET bunker, enjoyed a great show from Josh Robert Thompson and @craigyferg tonight.

Running an open SMTP relay is grounds for being kicked off the net these days. Why isn't this also true for attack-multiplying NTP installs?

@jmoneyrocks21 Yes, that's exactly how it works. Oh, hang on, no it isn't.

.@kufat NearlyFreeSpeech.NET Indeed. In my non-humble opinion, most new gTLDs are missing out by badly overpricing. The world needs more nearly free TLDs.

@deedubze You can change it, but not to Jeff Wheelhouse.

@deedubze On x.com/settings/accou… it’s at the top “Username.”

Just had @MariaDB decline to give me a quote for NearlyFreeSpeech.NET. They don’t deal with “staff” & say I’m too busy & hard to reach to be in management.

Also, their support offerings are so complex they’re “afraid” of “a great deal of misinterpretation” if they write them down.

Being mistaken for a British pub never gets old! But I’ll throw back a pint for your cause all the same. x.com/camrakl/status…

Prediction: Companies forcing existing users to buy new cloud subscriptions to get fixes will give “Old man yells at cloud!” meme new life.

.John Cook Trevor Timm How is the headline of that article not “Facebook’s one weird trick for burying clickbait will SHOCK you!” ?

There are few things I enjoy more than getting random reminders that NearlyFreeSpeech.NET members are among the smartest, most creative minds out there.
