I mean, i love comments, and Hanuman is one of the few people that comments mildly often (besides myself, i love to hear myself talk), but lately i have been getting more and more comment spam.
It sorta pisses me off, but mostly, it makes me happy on the inside, because if the bots [...]

I accidently took execute permissions away from all directories, meaning that apache could change to those directories, meaning everyone for the past like 20 minutes got access denied errors
but i fixed it

Tin Foil Soldier
I, in some 4am braindead attempt to fix something, deleted /lib from the server.
/lib is libraries, libraries that tell ALL OTHER PROGRAMS HOW TO DO THINGS!
so… once they were gone, there was not copy, move, delete, rename, hell, there wasnt even a “shutdown” or a “reboot”
so i went to the server rack (the [...]

So i reogranized all of my blog-esq links, moving sites that I dont read “daily/several times a week” into my “links” section for now
yes, I have a lot of “daily” blogs
yes, I read them, plus lots more that I dont actually link to here
I am professional student, and when I work in the [...]

Tin Foil Soldier
oops, i broke the website
but now it should be fixed
on a side note, gallery.tinfoilsoldier.com has now been moved to seele, because apache on windows 2k3 server was being completely retarded
the webserver should no longer just randomly stop like it was before

Updates:
Apache had a security bug, so it was updated
Mysql had a bug as well
as did proFTPd

My Sitemap

I found a wordpress plugin that autogenerates a sitemap every time i update my website
basically it generates a list of ALL of my URL’s, and tells google how often they are updated, and also sorta pings google whenever my site is updated.
If you have a static site, google has some info on how to [...]

Microsoft Free Friday is now over
I caved
but honestly, use Firefox

Tin Foil Soldier
so it is Friday. and officially Microsoft Free Friday here at Tin Foil Soldier
see http://tinfoilsoldier.com/blog/2005/08/02/mod_msff/ for prev post
I think its funny, I hate IE, I dont think I could internet without tabs

Unlikely dot Org / Code / mod_msff
Best
Apache
Module
EVER
msff = Microsoft Free Fridays
if you are using IE, and its a Friday, apache servers with this module will return a “Its Microsoft Free Friday” instead of the normally requested web page
I am experimenting with this, mostly to see if i can get it to work
but I am too [...]

Favourite Favicons | Delta Tango Bravo
Some cool favicons
I dont remember where I found mine, but I still like it
I was thinking about making a new one, some sort of Tin Foil Soldier lol
but… I dont know what a tin foil soldier loooks like

Tin Foil Soldier is now running on a “cpu0: Intel Pentium III (686-class), 601.40 MHz, id 0×683″ which is 150Mhz faster than the last processor
plus…!!!
it was supposed to have a gig of RAM as well, but apparently I put 3×256M sticks, and 1×128M stick, so I will have to swap that @ some point, [...]

i updated the the newest version of wordpress, and along with some fixes, it means that I got rid of the code that creates static html copies of the dynamically created pages so it can serve them up faster.
The page should be alot faster than before, but if it seems like its slower, [...]

DNS should be fully propogated, and theTTL is up for any cached lookups, so that means that all requests for www.tinfoilsoldier.com and tinfoilsoldier.com should be coming to this computer (seele) instead of caspar.
everything should work? if something doesnt let me know

if you can see this, then your DNS is properly updated
I moved my main webpage from caspar to seele, and its about 10 times faster
Everything should be moved properly, the only thing left to do is wait for dns to update so that everyone see’s this page instead of the old one, and then I [...]
