fucking hell

This time it didn't panic, it just froze.  I can't take this anymore; i'm going to have to go to Fry's and get the special-of-the-week and build a new system.  And i can't do it on Xmas, and i can't do it the day after Xmas because i'll be packing for my trip to Vegas, so it'll have to sit until i get back, but it'll no doubt freeze or crash while i'm gone, so i HAVE to do it tomorrow and Monday.

Have you tried running a memory stress test on it?

I'm convinced. We all need to return to Morse code with string and two tin cans. Computers! Bah!

Cray 1s were easier to fix than my damn home peecee.

I blame...Usenet

I bet if boredom wasn't doing Usenet you'd just host everything on colo boxes. So I blame Usenet for your problems, though I can't claim that all the text groups you host are the culprit for your woes, since as we all know Usenet Is Dead[tm]. Maybe it's time to just let go.

I'd also urge you not to get a special of the week. Go for a server-class machine, so at some point you can pick it up and drop it in colo. You should be able to get a PIII-class 1u or 2u for dirt cheap.

Oh, and will you be playing the tables in Vegas? didn't know you were into JOPKE (besides following paulp's blog)

Always the way - if it's any consolation, I had my co-lo machine run out of disk (I knew it was possible, because I'd been redlining it for a while, but still) while I was in the middle of a field with no access to a computer for a week... Hope it's better now, though... Enjoy Vegas.

Get Over It
