We're still slowly working on the site redesign. A bit distracted with the drudgery of daily life the past month or so. But plan to get back into coding and design stuff full-time in the next few days. Really need to have something read for launch sometime in June.

The new design is more than just vaporware. Mobile and desktop snapshots of a performer browse page.

And just because servers are sexy. This is the old junk that runs ADT.

Maybe I did post this a while back. In my old age I suffer from CRS.

I was referring to some of the wiring closets where I used to work. Cheers.

Ahh.

I would wander the isles in the data center for hours just admiring all the hardware we can't afford. Those blinking LED status indicator lights are such a tease.

Not sure if this is on your end or mine, Drew, but the picture for the "Call To God" advertisement doesn't appear to be scaling correctly.

I think that was the ADT side. I saw that earlier. It was a PNG, which seems to have a scaling issue so I replaced it with a JPEG.

Have you considered moving the forum to Xenforo? Realize it may not be a priority but I've used it elsewhere and it is a nicely modern interface and I've heard that it is good for mods as well.

I've thought about it. Looked into it a couple of years ago and decided against it back then. Might be worthwhile to revisit it.

I was unable to reach the site earlier, tracert showed the whole subnet was unreachable. Did your ISP give you any indication of what happened?

It was our NGINX caching proxy server. Applied some new security updates and attempted to reboot. The server wouldn't reboot and hung before the Grub bootloader menu displayed. I eventually found this new bug report but that was too late. I had already started down the path of rebuilding the server and a recovery/workaround wasn't an option. I'm going to order a spare server and keep it on hand ready to go. It's easier to swap a system out of the rack than deal with debugging this stuff standing at the rack.

BTW, I think our firewall blocks ICMP packets so a trace route would show stuff down even when we're up and running.

Drew, when replying to a post, if I want to preview my reply I have to hit the preview button twice for anything to happen. Don't know what's up with that.
