Server Upgrades!

[hym 358]

Has anyone noticed the news announcement on the homepage?  It's a few days off, but we're getting new hardware upgrades!

Thanks for the new specs, dirk!

That's awesome news, hym!  Thanks dirk!  Sounds like the old toaster is getting another bread slot.

This site seems fast enough to me, but then again, not as fast as that, eh?

Good luck with your project. I've got my own ones too.

And everyone is powerless to stop me as I put a chocolate chip bagel in there, and probably watch the chips melt into a mess.

Hey Dirk, with all that awesome processing power, any possibility that I can interest you in the VoarTok@home project?   Just kidding.

Thanks Dirk! Its much appreciated!

I wonder who started that Simtropolis Toaster joke, lol. Too many admins convention memories blending together.

Voar Tok: Nnnnnooooooooo!!

*Runs fast toward the toaster as voars just about to place the chocolate chip bagel into it, and jumps, doing a spiral spin onto his back past voar, grabbing the bagel out of his hand, flies over the toaster, and whams into the wall behind it*

Ouch.

Maybe.  Maybe not.  It should cut down on the number of them though.

[IDS2 3,344]

Yummy!

Seriously, it's much faster. Only 1 Jrun today, and it was short, and it wasn't even a Jrun!

[Jasoncw 11,839]

Good news!  Hopefully this will put the errors and stuff behind us.

"Hit the road J, and don'tcha come back no more, no more, no more, no more..."

[Voar Tok 4]

ST is going down in less than 12 hours! YEAH!

Is that just wrong or what?

Hm. That gives me a couple of ideas myself, actually. Couple of culinary experiments I have been meaning to get on with - and I believe I could use both the toaster and the Hot Tub together in perfect harmony.

Somebody save us now..

Anyways, yay, upgrades! Hopefully this helps some of those server issues. Glad its happening at a time when I'm at work!

once I actually did put a cookie in the toaster

it burned up and made lots of smoke actually, it didnt melt. Some cookies are actually highly flammable, try putting one in the microwave sometime.

hmm, bombarding biscuits with superheated electrons? Try putting tin foil in there (DONT)

[patriots_1228 51]

yay! Ive had 1 JRun in 3 weeks, now with this upgrade that number should get even better! thanks dirk and to all who donated(unfortuantly im too young to donate )

[hamsterTK 93]

was that downtime the scheduled one refered in the front page announcement?

Try putting tin foil in there (DONT)quote>

been there done that .

the microwave in my friends house was built into the cabinets. when they remodeled the kitchen the old microwave had to go. Instead of just putting out on the curb, we decided to have it go out in style. I took it out in the yard and used an extension cord to plug it in. The rest of the day we blew up stuff in it until it finally stopped working(it was a unopened can of soda exploding that finally killed it)

Its too bad they didnt have youtube when we did this.

You have to hire your own janitor for that mess!

Glad to see that the site is back up, and that we have the new equipment.
