I’m currently having major difficulties with my mail at dreamhost, the service has been up and down all day and I can’t get into webmail. Support ticket submitted, no response yet although I guess they’re aware of the situation and are on it (currently open tickets >500, open tickets when I submitted mine: >300).
Update: server issue resolved, support ticket removed… :-)
Ingoal’s score: 40 pts
Mr. Price’s score: 66 pts
I wonder how I could have scored so few points, after all I scored 6 goals in 2 matches (3 Arsenal goals (Pires, Henry), 3 Middlesbrough (Hasselbaink)) which sums up to 30 pts, so the remaining 8 players on my squad scored a grand total of 10pts in all the other matches – you gotta be kidding me – time for some transfers I guess :-(
Google has just put “Google Desktop Search” (beta) live. I guess I’ll give that a try, sounds like a promising application. More infos about it can be found here.

Alrighty, after a short night I took some time to get everything up and running this morning. You can see the results of my efforts here, here and here). It was indeed not dreamhost’s fault that the site wouldn’t show up, it was mine (D’oh) – to make a long story short: I used my second shell user to upload all the stuff and unfortunately home of user1 != home of user2, so I basically just uploaded it to the wrong folder (web was configured to use /home/user1/fcm2.info/ as www-root…and I uploaded the stuff to /home/user2/fcm2.info/ ). So thumbs up…everything up and running in less than an hour including 3 DBs, 3 subdomains and their respective dns-updates :-)
Conclusion so far:
After receiving a mail from GoDaddy that they’re selling .info domains for 1$ (first year) I registered some yesterday…online to come back today and find out that the price rose to 1.95$ :-(
Nontheless still a good deal and I guess I’ll get some more domains as I’ll finally have some time to start some new projects from November 1st onwards…
Hmm, today I received a package from one of my hardware retailers containing a lovely new Sony DRU700a DVD-burner. I had to send in my old DVD-Burner (Sony DRU500a), which I had bought in December 2002, cause it wouldn’t burn any discs anymore…and because my model was the oldest model of their line (the first Dual 4x DVD-Burner ever) and they didn’t have that anymore the sent me one of their newest models. The new Burner is a 8x/8x/2.4x/40x one (DVD-R/DVD+R/DVD+R9/CD-R).
Now I need to figure out if I should sell it (at a low price of around 80€ – can you believe that I had payed 399€ back in 2002 for the then top of the line model?) or keep it – “unfortunately” I already bought a new DVD-Burner (LG GSA4120B – 8x/12x/2.4x/40x (DVD-R/DVD+R/ DVD+R9/ CD-R)) the moment I had to send in the old one ;-)
Ingoal’s score: 28 pts
Mr. Price’s score: 36 pts
:-(
Down to 14th place (out of 17 teams) :-(
Ingoal 2 exam: You’ve been detonized :-)
Woooohoooo! 1,3 is the mark…(1.0 is the best available 5.0 the worst)…now it’s time to relax a little ;-)
Man, my head is full. I guess there would be still more to do, but I just can’t focus anymore. Time that this exam is over (will be approx. 11:40 german time tomorrow)…Wish me luck :-)
Ingoal’s score: 24 pts
Mr. Price’s score: 17 pts
:-)
:-(
to my ranking though: dropped to 13th place….I guess Mr. Price isn’t the right person to orientate oneself…
…exam inferno…learn baby learn. Exam is coming up this friday morning, so I got today, tomorrow and thursday left to get all the stuff into my head. What kind of exam is that you might ask. The exam is an oral one which will have a maximum duration of 20 minutes. The topic is “research and development management” and the script I’ve got to get into my head is 559 pages! :-(
Good thing I started to learn early on (note: lie)…
Ah well…I worked my way through the script in the last 3 days and now all I’ve got to do is get the summary of it (I always do my own summary on such huge scripts which brings the important stuff, or at least the stuff I think will be important, down to far less pages – in this case 39 A4-pages) into my head. Then it’s time to warm up my mouth on friday morning and the flood of words can begin ;-)
Wish me luck :-)
I’ll give you an update after the exam on friday afternoon…
Oooooh….climbing that mountain, hehe.
Ingoal – 26pts (177 total)
Mr. Price – 20 pts (193 total)
Still in 11th place though, so it’s time to really get into gear now…maybe I should trade a little more.
Finally, finally, I got my loved and missed Qute-theme back. Arvid released version 2.1.3 which is now compatible with Firefox 1.0PR :-)
The results are in…I scored 33 points (total: 151)….Mr. Price’s score 25 points (total: 173).
I guess my transfers are starting to pay off, but I still need some decent games to catch up, as I’m still stuck in 11th place…time for Henry etc to score some doubles or hattricks ;-)
