Moved website hosting off the Mac mini to a Linode VM. Fairly easy. Fast too. A couple hiccups (lost a post from earlier today). But so far so good, up and running. Even managed to upgrade Memex to MediaWiki 1.26.0. Maybe I can try and stay closer to up to date on that. Figured out how to do mysql backups again. And got BitTorrent Sync running on a Debian box. Hopefully I'm not leaving too many holes open on a public facing server. Even if so should be easy to shut down if necessary. And won't be hosing my home internet connection. Really wishing high speed symmetrical service was available for residential. Uploading photos to Picturelife takes forever at home, but if I wait until I get to work it's nearly instant, and that's just a 100 up/down pipe. I can only dream for Google Fiber to make an appearance in the city. 3 years away maybe? If we're lucky? Moving soon. Which was the reason to move hosting out of the home. Might move it back in if I can figure out how to get a hypervisor running on the Mac mini so I can run a Debian box for hosting. Because it really is much much easier to setup and maintain so far. Haven't picked up biking again, cause I got sick again from staying up too late working and getting up too early from Jackson. But he's woken up at 6am the last couple of days, so fingers crossed that's the new trend.
