Bureaucracy 3: Oh, so now you want to be part of the SOLUTION?
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I think you misspelt 'Pleasure'.

I don't think he'd find that funny. Also, he knows where I live.

Did we ever try using persistent MySQL connections? Did it make a difference.

Hey. New board.
We need to do due diligence, both in terms of design and code, and in terms of usage.
Oh, agreed. I guess I understand. But a dedicated server is pretty much a one-time investment, right? Or am i just totally confused on the way things work? Can you not provide your own server to whatever ISP is giving you access, with your own hard drive and CPU and whatnot? Why would CPU cycles provide a continuous expense?
Maybe I'm just dumb. It's been known to happen in the past.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, we didn't -- but if we need to go deeply into it, we should more neatly take this to BBaBB. Tuning MySQL to make persistence more effective would also lock us out of a shared server.
edit: NC -- let's take yours to BBaBB too, huh?

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Woe to the fucking wicked.
This is what happens when I get bored:
Should the Angel Spoilers thread be closed, or are we living in hope of movie(s)?

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
The show just went off the air. I'm in no rush to close any thread, including the Spoilers thread, especially since I know plenty of people enjoy reading the thread post-season and commenting.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
At a minimum, we should wait until the finale has aired down under (another 6 weeks or so, I believe).
