Nerdorama for All Your Geeky Needs

kasperh writes "After 10 months the Danish geekshop Nerdorama.com is now doing business across Europe. Nerdorama sells t-shirts, gadgets and a lot of other geek things for nerds within the EU. Now European nerds can buy geekstuff without paying big taxes when buying outside EU as you don't pay taxes when buying from other European countries."

    Why are stories on slashdot always so Euro Centric? What about us poor US geeks? We get almost no coverage here on slashdot. :(

    The add I get is for the Sybase Database... quite ironic if you ask me when all the site gives me is:

    Warning: mysql_connect(): Too many connections in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/nerdorama.com/httpdocs/ include/db.php on line 9

    Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/nerdorama.com/httpdocs/ include/db.php on line 10

      Gosh... I guess choosing MySQL *doesn't* automatically eliminate database performance problems.

      You mean you have to actually RTFM and then test stuff before rolling it out? With more than just one's own web browser?

      If only someone had ever written a web load tester that was multithreaded! But since they haven't I guess I'll have to write my own...

    It's late in the afternoon (or possibly evening, depending on your frame of reference) in Sweden right now, and unless someone has stealthily moved Denmark to someplace better, it should be the same time there.

    Hmm...could this be an intentional "Slashdotting" of a competitor to Thinkgeek.com? This is a very effective legal DDOS attack on the e-commerce site of a competitor of a company owned by the same people that run Slashdot.
