OSI Diary
by bb on Mon 24th Jul 11am



i guess this marks the advent of a new blogging module for the site

there used to be a mechanism for blogging, but it was well hidden (and mixed up with the shouts on the main page). i moved all the data over from non-shout related blogs (so these should just be the entries for people who actually found the old blog module).

i hope some people find it of use (although with some really advanced blogging sites available on the web - i dont have any illusions that it will be too popular!) and i'll try and keep using it myself so i'll be tempted to keep adding features like ..

* rss export out
* flikr foto linkage
* aggregated by month view in right column
* mechanism for linking 'friends'
* better customisable look and feel
* preview function
* import from 3rd party blogging tool

comment if you think up any more (or better still post them via the feedback page)

Any change in function, which can be effected by insensibly small steps, is within the power of natural selection; so that an organ coach outlet store online rendered, during changed habits of life, useless or injurious for one purpose, might easily be modified and coach factory outlet used for another purpose. Or an organ might be retained for one alone of its former functions. coach online outlet An organ, when rendered useless, may well be variable, for its variations cannot be checked by natural coach factory outlet online selection. At whatever period of life disuse or selection reduces an organ, and this will generally coach factory be coach outlet online when the being has come to maturity and to its full powers of action, the principle of inheritance at corresponding ages will reproduce the organ in its reduced state at the same age, and consequently coach outlet will seldom affect or reduce it in the embryo.

The Dazed piece came out a week or so ago. Martin X celebrated 10 years of us manikg toys. The first few years were with Silas! Martin was actually a Silas character. 2012 marks 10 years of Amos! So there will be something new.It will be a while for the TV series. It's in very early days of development. It has taken us 5 years to sign a deal that we are happy with. The work begins now.Kids stuff is also in early days. Maybe something at the end of 2012 I hope.

email update by think12 on Wed 4th Oct 2pm

So everything is working nicely now. I have all the account setup (all of
those who donated this year) with passwords generated. I'm just waiting to
rebuild the kernel (mainly with quotas) and reboot the box. With any luck I
can do it tonight. I'll send a round of emails with all the info aswell.
From now it'll be done (almost) automagically when a user (is kind enough)
to donate.

Anyways, that's all for now.

email email ooohhh email by think12 on Wed 27th Sep 8am

Lately I've been struggling to get an email solution working for OSIX. We'd
love to offer mail accounts that are properly tied into the rewards system.
Just as a "thank you" to those who have helped out/donated over
the time. Plus, we have a big beefy box that is hardly used. OSIX is
popular, but not popular enough to bring this box to its knees (unlike the
previous box :)


It's been a struggle trying to get *insert POP daemon here* to work with
pam_mysql (using MD5). I've been ripping my hair out lately. If I keep it
up, I'll look like bb soon. qpopper wasn't my first choice, but none the
less I decided to try it. Now it's core dumping *rips out more hair*

pid 42104 (qpopper), uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core
dumped)


Progress is slowly being made though. Anytime now I'll have a
breakthrough.

I am sorry to those who are waiting for an account. Just a little longer!

That's all for me. I'm off for a relaxing weekend doing volunteer work.
Yes, volunteer work, which is NOT my bag. My excuse? If I dedicate 4 days a
year to helping someone other than myself, maybe, just maybe... I won't go
to hell.
