get into your comty chair, lean back, watch and laugh. He's back.
Actually, this will be over pretty soon. Someone will ban him on the forums. another one will send a complaint to his host and in a few days it will be gone again. Too bad, because even tho it's pathetic, I still find it funny. So enjoy it while it lasts.

I got fed up with my old Teamspeak2 web viewer, and since I wanted to try some stuff I wrote a new version myself. I wanted to test jQuery a bit and tried to d as much as possible with objects in php.
The ts2webviewer is still missing some things, like hiding channels, showing verbose information about the server, channels and clients and I'd like to extend the admin interface to allow more commands then just kick players, but if you want, you can get a sneak peak at the code here: ts2webviewer-0.0.1.tar.bz2

I never felt quite happy with the current categories. Whenever I wrote an entry, I had to decide what category it should be. But whatever I had chosen, it never felt 100% right. Thats why I wrote a tags plugin for yabs.
It's not really ready yet, and some features like automatic tag suggesting are missing, but it works quite well now. And while writing the plugin I also squashed some minor bugs in yabs. If I ever get around to finish the plugin I'll release it to the general public, but for now it will only run on this blog. Sorry guys ;).
Do I have to understand this

Well, this guy obviously isn't dumb or anything, but he is still an idiot. And while he writes all that stuff, I just don't know whey he doesn't take the time to run his site properly. If he wants to piss of people, then do it right, but doing something so badly as this is pathetic. Even his previous attempts were better than this right now.
Thankfully, his identity is more or less known, and if he continues this, he will get a slap on the head. Again.
Note: The site is now offline, but I guess he will return sooner or alter with something similar.
Update: WotLK mirror going down
Thursday, 6. November 2008 18:24 - daniel - World of Warcraft - 0 Comments
My Wrath of the Lich King mirror will be shut down on November 13th. On that day, the new World of Warcraft add-on will be released and the beta ends, making a beta patch mirror obsolete.
I got quite a bit of experience about running a high traffic HTTP download site. Some funny stats:
Size: 7.2 GiB files (And Logfiles up to 2.4 GiB uncompressed)
Traffic
Aug: 994.43 GiB (In: 49.56 GiB, Out: 944.87 iGB)
Sep: 1.62 TiB (In: 66.68 GiB, Out: 1.55 TiB)
Oct: 1.09 TiB (In: 46.11 GiB, Out: 1.04 TiB)
Nov: 224.69 GiB (In: 7.48 GiB, Out: 217.21 GiB)
That's about 55 GiB/Day in September. Because that was way to much, I had to enable bandwith limiting.
Most hits were also during September. The site received 14 million hits that month, or about 5 hits every second. Most hits came from CoBlitzProxy fetching chunks of a file.
Update Nov. 10th, 2008 22:15
Since Coldara is already offline, I have also taken down my WotLK mirror.
