RAM RAM and more RAM


24GB of RAM to replace the 12 currently in my system.

Now I can run some really big simulations.

Update: Woohoo! Back up and running with twice the memory and all the goodness!

New Wifi

Shiny new wifi router with bright blue blinky lights is mounted on the board.

Getting it up and running was less painful than I expected.

Fresh start with OpenMelody

Looks like things are running pretty well on OpenMelody so far. Left behind all the plugins, so everything is plain vanilla Melody. I might bring a few things back, but I’m kind of liking this clean uncluttered DePo theme.

Still not sure what the deal was with the error I was having with the dynamic archives. It still happens seemingly randomly as I’m clicking on things in the back end and publishing stuff. Might have to resort to posting a question somewhere.

In a couple of weeks, this blog will be heading into its 9th year. 9! 8 years and 2385 entries here! Just doesn’t seem like it’s been that long. Time flies.

Blogging has slowed down a little because of time constraints and partly from not having a clear notion of what I want to put here. There are always lots of things tumbling around in my head that could probably go here. They usually never get well formed enough to be turned into anything coherent enough for a blog post though.

Guess I’ll just continue the rambling for another year.

Archive breakage

Trying to track down the source of this error which is breaking my dynamically published archives

Fatal error: Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 11]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtpluginstaticwebpath' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580) in /*/*/cgi-bin/melody/php/extlib/smarty/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 1095

Update: Decided to switch to static archives. Takes more space (+33MB), but probably simpler that way.

Running on Melody now

Got the blog up and running on OpenMelody, but the archives are broken.

bleh.
