What do you mean by that?
There were troubles at Dreamhost, which you may have noticed yesterday: apparently the MySQL server went down. If the host’s MySQL goes down, xsamplex goes down the tube too.
We’ll be bunkering down the coming days: it’s supposed to be getting colder today, tomorrow and a couple of days in the week. Between -20 and -10, plus the necessary snow and wind to add to that.
I also found out that my laptop does not have a wave audio mixer. I’m not sure if it’s because of the driver or the hardware (audio) card itself. The earlier mentioned P100 does indeed have one (but then, it has a way better soundcard too, a Connexant [Intel] HDA). I can hear the homeric laughter. I mean, a DVD player that can’t play other region’s DVD because it’s baked into the hardware and no wave audio mixer (which is in my opinion is basic functionality of a soundcard). What else can we expect in the future?
I finally gave up on DreamHost three months ago, and going back to Hosting Matters wasn’t an option for me.
I found a great new host called ixwebhosting that not only has much better plans at a much better price and more stable servers, you can also call their support 24/7/365.
