Buffistas

And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

There are probably going to be board outages for another few days. Nothing I can do about it at this point. I just have to ask people to please be patient and hope that it gets better in our new home. Which we should be relocating to on Thursday.

What kind of machine is this running on?

As of right now, we're on a P3. I don't have the RAM or hard drive info in front me. It's on the PC at home. Starting later this week, we'll be on a dual xeon server with 2gb ram and two 120gb hard drives.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

it seems like this might be a good opportunity to start and/or crank up the dev list that never really got moving when we were at HR, no?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Good point, amych.

Any comments or questions on the ERD I just sent out should go to dev(at)buffistas.org.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

As I noted in Bureaucracy, the perl script that John wrote to threadsuck WX threads doesn't seem to work anymore. It reads the first page of posts, then can't find the next page, so it stops. The end of sucked thread indicates that the link used for the next page is incorrect. I suspect WX may have changed the way it references the next page, but I don't have the perl knowledge to do anything about it even if I could figure out what's going on. Does anyone want to have a go at seeing if they can get it to work? A copy of the script is here.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

DX, up at the top of the script, $SITE is defined as "http://www.worldcrossing.com"

If you change that line to $SITE = "http://wc1.worldcrossing.com"

... that should fix things, I hope.

ETA: ita, insent re: CVS.

D'oh! I looked right at that, and it didn't occur to me it was wrong. Thanks, Karl. That did the trick.

Sometimes it just takes a pair of eyes that haven't been staring at it too hard.

Happens to me with my own code way too much.

And of course *now* I can't get to our forums again. Bother.

I think that if I can get into WX again, I'm going to try to create a new Buffistas forum on one of the new servers, and then try to move our stuff off wc1, which seems to be the problematic one. I have no idea if that's even possible, but I think it's worth a shot. Any thoughts?

But be careful -- I've read reports that forums on WC3 disappear.
