    When did you realize you were getting old?

    Oh dear god, I feel old listening to you guys! I thought I may be getting on a bit when I start managing guys at work who were in infant school when I started work! For the non-UK, infant school is for ages 4 - 7ish!

    Got quite a lot of veg on the go, lots of squashes, beans, peas, rhubarb, peppers, chillis. sprouts, you name it I probably have it squeezed in the garden. Nothing better than answering support tickets on the tablet outside :D I like your thinking - cocktails this evening I think!

    Spring has sprung... Time to get outside...

Jeeeez, I sound old - if anyone said I would be happy planting stuff 20 years ago I would of laughed in their face as I drown myself in beer! Now I can't wait to get...

    Is anyone else using LoveVPS?

    Advice on finding a decent reseller account

    I have them on a VPS at the moment but as they are only hosting the websites I would rather put them on a reseller. All the backend stuff will be kept on the few VPSes I have scattered about, saves wasting a VPS on hosting a few static (as in they don't change that much not just HTML). Makes...

    Proper redundancy question.

    Evening all. I write software for Windows that, at the moment, means people have to download a new install package when I update something. I have been messing with a few things and there is a way I can get the software to connect to the server at startup and download anything new automatically...

    I love messing about with electronics - got a few college courses under my belt about it all from setting up a few simple circuits to building my own Sky decoder when they first started out and before they knew a lot about scrambling signals :) Fast forward a few years where I did nothing I now...

    [Simple Script] Set Up Virtual Hosts On Ubuntu

    Not sure if this would be of any use to people who do this day in and day out, but for me it saves a few minutes when setting up a new domain on a server. Two files, one the script and one the blank template that is used to create the entry to sites-available. Stick 'template' in...
