But with an infinite amount of monkeys, er, programmers writing screenplay, we'll produce an infinite amount of screenplays/scripts/etc. Then it's just a matter of picking the best one!
Just wonder if Rob could afford the tons of new hardware that'd be necessary to handle the new load (Mysql may have limited features, but it's a speed demon). It'd suck to buy tons of new hardware to give it a try and have it not end up being the problem.
The servers are in a temperature controlled datacenter being fed good clean power. Server cases are pretty dustpuppy free too. Just have to keep looking..
Don't accuse the BSD supports of FUD -- first, that's a SunWorld article. Second, neither of those is FUD. The first is an observation, one which isn't particularly harmful/insulting. The second is arguing/against/ the usual "support support!" FUD.

Better start watching your back! Rob needs another machine pretty bad! ;)
Geez, what are you blind? THE CODE IS OPEN, whether or not it's version 3.

I'd love to see a GPL'd movie, but my feeling is that we'll never see anything of quality (longer than 30 min) come out.
Hate to burst your bubble, but the code is available and can be freely modified. Go get it at ftp.slashdot.org/pub/slash/

He was looking for companies to sponsor the trip in trade for advertising.
Not to slight your site, but 12000 unique users per month isn't really enough to reach that critical mass where advertisers start jumping on.
If you were getting 12000 page views per day (with mostly, although not necessarily 100% unique users), then you'd be in a real jumping off position.
But 12000 unique users a month is only 400 per day, which is usually too little for a company that might advertise to waste time doing paperwork with.
That also assumes you're selling 100% of your ads (I assume you're assuming that, correct me if I misassumed regarding your possible assumption) ;)
Most sites sell like 30% of their ads.
Well, you kinda have to let the NYT off the hook on that one, as the Wine FAQ does say Windows Emulator...
They'd have a dozen other backups, both on tapes and on other systems around the world.
