You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I've used ev1servers.net in the past (they're massive), and can recommend them.

Has anyone heard of these guys? Their marketing makes them sound amazing.

I'm currently playing with css.buffistas.net. If anything goes wrong, it's probably my fault.

t later Never mind. My brain can't code right now.

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

The Planet is hella expensive, and I haven't even been able to find out what versions of MySQL, PHP and PostgreSQL they run yet. Still looking.

MediaTemple looks cool, but I wonder if it's currently unreasonable to find a decent host with 8.x PostgreSQL and 5.x MySQL.

These hosts say they offer them:

[link] [link] [link] and [link]

I've been wondering, does the to-do list need to be updated? I don't think it really reflects what's going on with the board.

I have a Pentium 4 with 1M L1 cache, 1 GB of RAM, a 160GB SATA2 drive, and 100MB/s ethernet. I get 1.3 TB of bandwidth of month, as well. The hardware is from Cari.net and I pay $80 a month for it.

OK, someone remind me how I work this--I just got an email saying that Sparky subscribed to the dcistas list--but I'm not even sure I'm ON the dcistas list (I don't think I got the email she'd sent to the list about the brunch she was having), much less how to be the administrator. Help?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

You need to go here: [link] then scroll down to the bottom and click on "Dcistas administrative interface". That'll take you to the adminstrative logon, where you enter your password. Unfortunately, I don't know what the password is.

Hah! Found the admins password. I can log in and send you your password if you need it. Let me know.

Please do, DX--mearagirl, at yahoo. I went there and tried my usual passwords, but they didn't work. Doh!
