Good morning all.   [coffee] I don't think I have really adjusted to West Coast time. I head back to Buffalo sometime around the 29th. I'm off to the airport at 0830 for my flight to Sitka. The cruise ends on the 25th in Juneua.

Hi all,

DIMBY came and went I see!  I hope all survived.

This time of year is more work travel than not but had unplanned house projects thrown in for fun over the past two months. Short break for the next week.

Stay safe and smoke and heat-stroke free out there.   [thumbsup]  [coffee]

GoDaddy can kiss my ass. I've had to restart the server 5 times since yesterday morning.

Thank you.  Is there an alternative?

There are many. Our contract with GoDaddy runs through September 2027. I'm positive they won't refund any of the money, so I hesitate.

We don't need the server we have. We went to media temple when we had thousands of crack monkeys clicking 24/7/365. The forum simply isn't like that anymore. We don't need unlimited simultaneous connections, or any of the other upgrades we supposedly are getting.

All I know, We paid GoDaddy to provision a server, and I pay to manage the SSL. When the HTTPS Domain service becomes unavailable 5 or more times a day, and that, I believe, is because the SSL they write is make the beast with two backsed up some how, it gets frustrating.

I just hate to have the forum unavailable to many members when I'm not available

Evening.

Question. I sent an email to a local fine foods store that is licensing their "friday burger night" to a local operator last night about my experience. I've not heard back from them. You would think that including the phrase, "most likely the worst burger I've ever had at a restaurant" would illicit a fairly quick response, yeah?

How long do I wait to send again?

It's likely they don't care

Well they should. Their "burger night" burgers are regarded as some of the best in the city. This new venture has plans to rapidly expand across the state. It could be a nightmare if they don't get it fixed.
