August 31: Will Jackie Evancho Lip Sync Tonight?

MicroGuy | August 31, 2010

The questions filling my inbox this morning are all the same. Will Jackie Evancho be lip synching her semi-final performance tonight on America’s Got Talent? Personally, I think the AGT producers have learned their lesson and will pull back on their audio magic tonight. What do you think?

Character Away Script

MicroGuy | August 28, 2010

Just discovered a new script that will remove a single character from any domain name. I’m currently testing it out on a couple of domains. I will update this post soon with my results.

Paul Newman Sings Plastic Jesus

MicroGuy | August 26, 2010

This is my favorite clip from the 1976 picture Cool Hand Luke. In this scene Newman’s character sings the folk classic Plastic Jesus and plays the banjo shortly after learning of his mother’s death.

MicroGuy | August 25, 2010

Just received this “response” to my last support ticket. Notice the specific and detailed manner in which my questions were answered. Thanks, that’s explains everything. Lol

Dear Greg,

I am answering your questions one by one, but first of all, sorry for the delay and thank you for staying with us.

1.) Why has my server (Colossus) been up and down over the past 4 days?

=> There was some urgent maintenance work going on in the server “Colossus” and because of that, you faced the downtime. The issue has been solved now and no further loading problem will be there.

2.) What is the issue and when will it be resolved?

=> As I have already said, the issue has been solved and hopefully you will not face any further downtime now onwards.

3.) Do you put the low end $2.95 accounts on the same servers with Business accounts?

=> Yes, we put different low end accounts all together with business accounts on the same server. I am providing you a link: http://www.pacifichost.com with which you can have a comparative picture among diffrent accounts and their packages.

4.) What method do you use to allocate CPU % to my Business Hosting Account?

=> We allow 10% CPU usage for Primium accounts. For different package information you can browse the link:http://www.pacifichost.com

PacificHost: Up Then Down!

MicroGuy |

The issue yesterday regarding page loads and massive network latency has returned today only worse than before. This is starting to effect my development timetable. It looks like I’m going to have to pull my banners advertising their services.

Here is the site report from HostTracker. It’s taking an average of 22 seconds to load a single webpage containing 7 characters of plain text:  View Today’s Report

CenturyLink Website Down

MicroGuy |

The CenturyLink (formally Embarq) website is currently down. CenturyLink is the provider of phone, Internet broadband and advanced television services for home and businesses in 33 states.

Update: 3:33pm Eastern: I just received this from CenturyLink’s Twitter guy:

“We had a power outage at a major data center & the backup did not bring the system back up. Should be back up this evening!”

Where is Jackie Evancho?

MicroGuy | August 24, 2010

Goodbye little Jackie! I’m crying myself to sleep.

Was she voted off? No. According to Jackie Evancho’s “handlers”, the AGT opera girl, was supposed to have two weeks off between her performances on AGT. That means she should have been on tonight! It appears that she has withdrawn from the competition which is a crying shame. We will miss you Jackie! Take care and I’m sure we’ll see you again in the future once your voice matures a little.

PacificHost Latency Issues

MicroGuy | August 23, 2010

Sites hosted on Pacific Host may currently exhibit extremely slow page times due to network latency issues. I have reported my findings to their support team and they are working on the issue. In other words, websites hosted on pacifichost servers may be slow as molasses until this is resolved.

Update! Read the latest on this story here: PacificHost Issues
