ImageWell hello there world! As it turns out, running a set of VM's and playing games works on the same machine, but not very well (Even a super beefy one). So as to meet both goals, I will temporarily be keeping the site on the server it lives on. I will eventually find a new home for it, but for now it stays where it is. Other than that, I don't have much news. I do have a boat load of work this week so there may be some sporadic updates. I'll be testing out a new webcam floater gave me a while back, to see if I can put together some low resolution video and convert it to flash for a webcast. I'll see how that works out. That aside, not much else to tell. So here are your updated goodies from ATN:

 

Nic Cage as everyone - I keep trying to get out : But this site keeps pullin me back in! This is a new movement on the interwebz to photoshop Nic Cage's face onto everything. Some of them are so good it's difficult to tell it's shopped. ZOMG!

 

A smiling dog - Look it thinks it's human! : Nothing like an anthropomorphic dog to pick up your day!

 

American middle class get ready to be f**ked - Backdoor taxes coming in 2010 : I wonder if when you become president you are injected with some serum that instantly makes you hate the middle class. YAY lets f**k the middle class AGAIN! Don't get me wrong, I don't mind paying taxes to help out, especially in times like these, but even it out across the board for Christ's sake.

 

China warns Obama not to meet Dahli Lama - Don't do it..... doooooon't do it : If I were Obama, I would throw the Dahli Lama the biggest party of all time, in Tokyo or something about as close to China as I could get. It would be like an MTV sweet sixteen party on crack. It would be televised, and broadcast across the world.

 

Spray on glass about to revolutionize everything - Sort of..... I think : Hey! You stepped on some glass and got some in your foot? Here, spray some glass on it! But no really. It does hold some serious promise. It will probably come in handy in the medical and food industries, as glass is much more sterile than other porous surfaces.

 

Classes on abstinence can delay teen sex? - Yeah sure. I believe that :  Can all you right wing wingnuts do me a favor and just go find the nearest gun, stick it in your mouth and pull the trigger? Thanks. Kids are gonna have sex no matter what. If you teach them abstinence, then you won't have time to teach them about prophalactics. Then when they have sex, they will have it unprotected and spread disease and raise unwanted pregnancy rates. I swear the religeous right is trying to bring us back into the goddamn dark ages. Apparently I'm going to have to home school my kids because the government is too impotent to doo anything about it these days. Kthxbai.

 

Last surviving american-born WWI vet celebrates his 109th - That is one tough man : Apparently even old age can't kill him.

 

33 Haitian children returned home - After good Christian Baptists kidnap them : I love how they are all incredulous like they didn't know what they were doing was wrong.

 

The old dissapearing water trick - This chick gets owned : Too bad I posted this already, cause my wife would totally fall for this......

 

Chat Roulette - A site that connects you to random strangers : With webcam and audio support. The only reason I put this up here is it's all over the goddamn internet now, and it appears there are some serious shennanigans going on that you might not want to miss out on. Keep in mind it's frequented by teenagers and there are some creepy ass mother f**kers on there too. But it should provide some entertainment should you get bored. There is a very good explanation of what it consists of here.

ImageWell here we go. I'm back on the WBG horse. Let's see how it pans out. I've gotten the VM up that will be hosting the new LAMP environment.  Cent OS is essentially Red Hat, but it's yum repositories are a bit screwed and took some time to get installed. I'll take a break until I'm ready for anther swing at it. Once the server is tip top I'll start serving up all the sites here again.

 

As of the last date this server was alive it was hosting about 7 domains. I will likely start hosting more, but that will require some security lockdowns, etc. I'll see what it requires, but it likely won't make much of a difference on the front end.

 

Anyhow, here are some tidbits from the interwebs at large:

 

Metal Foam - A lighter, stronger material than "Real Metal" : It's planned to be used in body armor and new vehicle plating for the military. It's also planned to be used in buildings, and more. It seems to me like it should be tested a bit more before we dive right in, but it shows a lot of promise.

 

Little girl outdances everyone - That has ever danced : Ever.

 

Osama Bin Laden denounces the U.S. - For failing to act on climate change? : Wait..... what? Well I guess he does have a point, although it is unfortunately mute coming from a person such as him. If only he'd spent his millions and millions of OIL MONEY on the environment instead of killing innocent people, then his voice would actually mean something. IDIOT.

 

The wingnuts at PETA have finally taken over - They want Punxsutawney Phil to be replaced by a robot : They believe that the tradition of making him come out is too stressful for him. Now forget about the Forida Panther and the California Condor. Let's go make sure the groundhog is not too 'stressed out'.

 

Bear Vs . Cat - This cat is not scared of this bear : It actually chases off a damn bear!

 

Youdrivewhat - Strange car blog - Some of them are cool, and some of them are just odd. All of them are pretty funny. This one being my favorite so far.....

 

Is your neighbor pissing you off? - Well set one of these babies up! : Put it on your roof, and point it at their bedroom. After a few weeks of that, they'll be putty in your hands......

 

Probably the toughest kid on the face of the planet - He had both arms and legs cut halfway off : Due to a bacterial infection when he was a baby. He's still on the wrestling team, he still scooters around and skateboards..... on his arms...

ImageSo I've brought this server back from the dead yet again. I've gotten an upgrade in the bandwidth department so things should be pretty damn fast, comparatively. I'm going to virtualize everything in a CentOS installation and run qmail on it as well. That way I can keep just one box. I've got a pimpin new rig at home that I'm going to serve it off of soon too.

 

Anyhow, I'll begin updating it again soon. As a side note, this site has been up (on and off) for five years. It's gone through many iterations, and had plenty of events occur (even being hacked). This site has run off a server in my house running Mambo/Joomla in a LAMP environment since it's inception. I don't intend on changing that anytime soon, but who knows. I've seen some pretty secksie CMS's out there these days.

 

Either way, I'll get back to getting this whole get up tip top again. I'm excited to get this rolled out!

 

Chris
