    Nginx, MIME types and Firefox

    Man oh man. It's alway something simple, isn't it! nginx.conf was indeed missing 'include mime.types;' Re-enabled gzip as well. Everything is working fine. May need to hard refresh or clear cache if using FF, but afterwards everything displays normally!

    Nginx, MIME types and Firefox

    Hmm, I removed  text/css from "gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript application/javascript text/x-js;" in nginx.conf... restarted nginx. Didn't fix the issue. Then just disabled gzip entirely on the...

    Nginx, MIME types and Firefox

    It does already, but this as if it's probably due to gzip altering the MIME type and Firefox is treating it differently than Chrome. Only in Firefox does it not detect it as 'text/css'.

    Converting entire directory of JPG files to progressive JPGs and reduce quality/size?

    With any amount of luck I'll write a bash script that just runs nightly or weekly to update the newer, unconverted files. We'll see :)

    Converting entire directory of JPG files to progressive JPGs and reduce quality/size?

    Thanks fellas, I'll look into these more! The entire directory of uploaded avatars will be converted. I ran a test locally on a couple individual avatars converting them in GIMP and reducing quality to 80%. Turned a 100X100, 21KB avatar .JPG to about 11.2KB. So it's certainly worth doing. I...

    What cool and useful things would you do with your Windows VPS?

    Ordered a Windows VPS from Winity last month... I think all I've done is install Firefox and run a speedtest... I really have no idea what to use it for.

    Nginx, MIME types and Firefox

    Yesterday and the day before pushed out some updates on the forum (server side for the WWW and Ad server), to speed things up a tad. This included updating Nginx  and some SSL and Gzip related tweaks. However it's come to my attention today that the ads now display strangely in FireFox, and...

    Converting entire directory of JPG files to progressive JPGs and reduce quality/size?

    I'm interested in bulk converting an entire directory of JPG files into progressive JPGs while also stripping quality to about 85% of the original in an effort to reduce file sizes. These are for the vpsBoard avatars, and I believe it can be done with jpegtran however I am uncertain how to...

    No Disparagement Clauses

    It won't matter for the low-end, because lawyers cost more than $7. EDIT: And the disparagement clauses are insane. Any company who lists this in their terms should be immediately avoided. It's as if saying, "I have no real reason to work to impress you because you're not going to write a bad...

    Great tutorial. When I read the other post I was hoping to see a tutorial be created as well, glad one was created. May have a weekend project for some idle VMs.
