I think I'm having my metaphorical period.

Duncan

Original mail says :

This is an enquiry e-mail via http://www.theforest.org.uk from:
Magdalena Jednorowicz <magda_j@wildmail.com>

Mail goes to pogomac@yahoo.com

Must be a mail link or address on the site that still goes to Pogo's address.

Duncan

I'm empty of any suggestion both sensible and technologically plausible. I mean, cameras that emit light is essentially progressing towards holo-Ryan, which is probably still beyond even dorkbot.

I take it tranquility team is pretty much not happening ?

Duncan

Done, hopefully. The forest dark arts crawls its slimy way back from the void.

Duncan

I'm sorry I missed this too. I'd urge more caution on logins, particularly the server access stuff. It's been made a hash of before and I keep it very tight nowadays. I think only Milk and myself have the main details and I prefer to have them passed on directly from me. Saying that, there are certa...

Duncan

In response to PHP5 query, Barnabas asks, will we be needing MySQL 5 as well ?

Duncan

Ryan has a psycho stalker

Duncan

Milk mailed Barnabas the admin but I think he's still left it commented out for now. To be honest I'd be tempted to do the same in his position. I think I'll progress things by asking about a shift to PHP 5.

Duncan

Nice one.

Duncan

Gah, I don't know jay, but what a fuckwit. Hate this sort of thing. It's time the forest got a set of stocks to put the incompetents in. How big a drive would we need for the server ? Could always use the 160gig from bluey. What else would it need ? I've got still decent power supply that's notional...

Duncan

I have quite a few friends imminently about to drop sprogs.

This might be really useful if they don't get the right gender or hair colour.

Definitely a good idea.

Duncan

Sounds good. I got as far as figuring that line, and the random file seems intact, so no more idea. Must be some other config thing like Chaotic suggests.

Milk, not sure if you've been in touch with the admin already so I'll leave it to you to make the change and let him know.

Nice.

Duncan

From our host, You have a PHP file template that is programmed incorrectly and is causing very high server load issues. Please have your webmaster fix this ASAP, the two repeating errors are below. The errors happen every second over and over. Please fix this ASAP as I was forced to suspend your sit...

Duncan

Must be the 500G WD that was the dodgy one. Almost definitely nowhere near full. Hadn't even partitioned the whole thing when it started misbehaving. Unless someone else did which was unlikely at the time. And not so old, it was still quite new when all the office shifting happened. I would take the...

Duncan

I know one of the drives was dodgy (500GB Maxtor I think) but hopefully not both.

I have another older one that was dieing at home that I managed to get some stuff off. Must search that.

You got space to copy stuff onto Swithun ? I have an external that I got for the purpose ages ago.

Duncan

Duncan

There was a meeting yesterday ? Sorry if I missed it. Of course should have gone to film anyway. Ideas, The Safety of Objects http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0256359/ , primarily because I'm fan of Timothy Olyphant, and The Pleasure of Being Robbed http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt1189259/ Documentaries, The F...

Duncan

sponger ?

I must use that more.

Duncan

I'd like to stick up for our hosting owner and admin, who is not faceless, but is a very pleasant and competent man, named Barnabas, who provides support one to one. The service over the years has been excellent and I would strongly resist moving. He's quite happy to shift us to a PHP 5 server, and ...

Duncan

Tim has been in touch with me about this again. It's obviously quite important to him and Mikey so I'm willing to take a lead in tracking stuff down. What happened to the blue computer ? I gather it doesn't exist anymore. Was it retired because it was windows or did it actually die ? Was there only ...

Duncan

Yeah, I have ideas again, would like to get involved.

Before the film seems like a good time for the meeting.

Shouldn't we just call 'bottom liners' pants ?

Duncan · Re: Programme 24-30/11/2008 Fixed it here, but still needs fixed on events page

Fixed it here, but still needs fixed on events page

Duncan

I'm just glad someone has had the sense to put in place measures to prevent the assasination of the American president.

Duncan

He used to be a male escort ?

Duncan

Anonymity, I remember that.

Duncan

Admins, word censoring is NOT for you to make back door edits to peoples' posts, and especially not for the pursuit of some dubious hippy agenda. If you wish to do so you should use the edit button and make it explicit that you have done so. Unless of course it's exceedingly funny, a bar which this ...

Duncan

I am a vacuum cleaner.

But how is nothing more clean ?

Duncan

Matters if it's good and/or interesting, not how avant garde or mainstream.

Duncan

Cut Copy, beautilful Australian pop electronica that I picked up in San Fran.

Just imagine a massage from a hot girl and the music she listens to.

Duncan

slackware ftw !

Duncan

I finally remembered to bring in the router. In action room cabinet.

Duncan

The end of festival party and the Happening should be nothing to do with each other whatsoever.

There must be no repeat of the fuckwit culture spass disgrace of past years.

The Happening must be returned to it's former glory.

Are you my Dada ?

Duncan

919. mid 21st century post-urban tribal resurgence

Duncan

Ask yourself, is it less than green to subvert ?

Duncan

This is great ! Bill, if you're on the TK Yahoo group you should read up Sally Felt in the archives.

Duncan

Anyone going on this ?

It sounds amazing but I totally forgot in usual fashion and now it's completely booked up.

Duncan

Nope, I'd still rate my recommendation above theirs.

Their first one is just a crap make.

Their second is a resolution that's really for HDTV specifically, not what we use, and has a very weak brightness.

Duncan

Anyway, to be more useful, a quick recommendation would be the BenQ MP721, which is on a good price at http://www.dabs.com

About 600 quid.

Duncan

That should be true of ALL purchases :)

Duncan

I think we should go for A0, just to be sure. You could also use it for weirdos.

Duncan

A4 I would have thought. Probably worth buying not the cheapest so it lasts a bit longer.

Duncan

So, after all the fuss we've so far got two right hand (for a left hander) gloves.

Oh the humanity.

Perhaps if we could agree that the Forest will spend say 50 quid on this we could get more gloves.

Wish Matt was still here, he was a softball player. Played with one of the teams in Edinburgh iirc.

Duncan

It's an anti obsessive compulsive device. It seems to be working perfectly well.

Duncan

It's mostly search bots, the 74 ones are Yahoo, others are Google and probably more.

Duncan

Bat has arrived ! It's very pretty, and please ignore Daniel's weight nonsense. The bat is just under 2 lbs which is just the same as the lighter bats that the pros use nowadays, in the age of fast pitching.

Duncan

Paypal's already taken its cut, but it's only 40p. Was assuming you're familiar with such.

So anyway Mr. Professional Dreamer, that is the right address ?

Duncan

Will come up with something. Was thinking of the Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner.

Is the sound working on the PA ? Having to fuck about getting the sound working every time is the main thing that puts me off doing film night.

Duncan

Is that kasperlurcock@yahoo.co.uk ?

It'll be sans the exhorbitant paypal charge of course.

Duncan

Fixed finally, points to the forest records section of theforest.org.uk site. Domain was hosted by Pogo originally, but no more and languished in web limbo for a while. I've got it back now so it uses the free services at the domain register (ukreg) for web and email forwarding. It shall sit happily...

Duncan

James, just wondering where you're getting those distances from ?

May well be right, but I've cycled some of those bits before and my spidey sense says they're a bit optimistic.
