Barack Obama!

I normally don't talk about unrelated MadGizmo stuff here but Barack Obama won the 2008 election! I never saw it happening.

This is the first election MadGizmo has been around for. Good luck Obama!

A Seemless Merge

Well we finally switched. Our monthly fee will be a lot lower now and everything is just a bit more reasonable now.
Steadfast was nice enought o keep the dedicated server up for a while more, making the merge pretty much seemless.
Our new home is 209.123.162.14 at Linode!

Hell yeah MadGizmo, it just never dies muthafucka!

If anyone notices any problems, tell me ASAP!

Its Offical...

Well its offical, the dedicated sever is canceled. I am happy but sad at the same time, I put MANY hours into this server and the power of having your own dedicated server was fun, but not cost effective. I am looking into a VPS from Linode right now, it comes with Gentoo installs and support and many other cool things like Shells, instead of having to pay for KVM etc... so it seems like a better plan for us. And on top of that all, the current dedicated server has had the same install and some big screw ups on it... so haha, I think its better that we start with a clean install. The day the server gets shut down, I will be shutting down MadGizmo and making sure I have the latest backups of everything, MadGizmo might be down for a few days after that, or I might just say screw it and it might be down for a few years, I am not 100% sure. I hope everyone enjoyed the ride, it might not be over though.

Peace out everyone.

Some New Info

Currently we are trying to find cheaper hosting to make it less of a burden on our lives and take a break on MadGizmo. If anyone knows of any good cheap hosts we can contact please tell me! I want MadGizmo to survive but currently I need to get on with my own life a bit.

Peace out!

MadGizmo Current Updates

It is pretty ironic how things end up. The current situation with MadGizmo is unstable, hopefully there is a cure but shit happens.
We had a small meeting September 11th on our IRC channel, honestly it didn't go too well, but some ideas came up like writing a general overview every week or so.
MGE keeps getting updated slowly, I am starting to look at other projects I can get involved with and other funding to keep shit alive.

Sianora.

9/11/08

Everyone should remember, it seems like its a bit more clarified this year then I remember in the past, where ever I look I kept remembering when 9/11 was this year. I hope everyone remembered and respects this day.

Going Away For A Week

Me and Gizmo are leaving to go on vacation, I need some freedom from the computer, I hope everyone keeps MadGizmo alive!
Post and stuff!

I made sure to clean some stuff up before I left, made MadGizmo more XHTML standard and adding a quick update to MGE. Enjoy people, hopefully there will be big plans for MadGizmo when I get back.

Peace everyone.

Three Whole Years Of MadGizmo!

Thats right people, its that day... MadGizmo Day! August 7th, 2008!

Honestly, I never saw this far in the future when MadGizmo started, not that our expectations were reached, but you know whats its all good because we are still here.
How much longer can we go? I honestly don't know. We have gone from nothing to this and we just keep improving, and turst me we have had our "fuck ups" but we survive! Even our host (steadfast.net) helped us out by lowering the price a bit, not sure if they knew or didn't about our 3rd year in existance, but all the help is what keeps us here. Even nimbus is back! You can see nimbus's mark too on MadGizmo (the fireworks in the header and the awesome happy birthday mg pic!) and there will be more! Haha, even C.M.O beat me in posting! I've been the reigning champion till 2008, so there is always change around this place, but hell thats whats great about this place!

Oh yeah did I say the 2008 Summer Olympics are tomorrow? This will be the first summer olympics MadGizmo is around for!

We are still working on projects, like MGE and damn... a bunch of stuff under the hood we just aren't fully sure about. Honestly, there are no predictions for the future, no timelines, nothing but a future. I hope you enjoy your 7th! I sure as hell will!

HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY MADGIZMO! Go enjoy some poker and relax.

Lets End July Correctly.

Its July 31st... the summer is half over. Thats right only half, so there is still plenty of time to enjoy.

Great things happened this July, like...
like July 4th, Dark Knight, cheaper gas (not really cheap but cheaper then it was...) and the first full month of no school!
Also, I hopefully will be releasing a decent update to MGE with a periodic table soon.

So what do I ask of you all on the 31st of July, 2008? Post, give me ideas for work in August, get ready for August 7th, find anything you can update or fix and last but not least remember the past is behind us, don't dote on it, try to enjoy the rest of the summer!

"Woopsies"

Root, damn its dangerous. With great power comes great responsibility...
Do not use ROOT when you are tired, just don't... that was my mistake.

I did "chown -R games:games /" in root... why? I wanted to change one folder i meant to do "chown -R games:games ./" but no... I had to mess it up...
Well I fixed most of the problems with the help of #gentoo and "chown -Rc root:root /" but it still is a work in progress. The web server is up and I hope everything is semi ok, I am sorry for the inconvenience... I got all the backups if anything does go wrong, so we won't lose anything.

ITS ALIVE!

Edit: It was Sys Admin Day when I broke the server... sad.
