Updates for Maggi Picayune

The big change coming up which you probably won’t notice much its hosting being moved. After nearly a decade, I’m just moving the site to be hosted somewhere more reliable. I just don’t have the time to find out why the server in my house goes deaf nor do I want to spend any money on new hardware locked into the current OS I personally find inadequate for my personal server needs. The old mini will get repurposed to remain our jukebox because I doubt the issue is being caused by QTSS. It might too. I will be erasing it and re-installing 10.6 Server to get it rolling.

Next up will be winding down my contract with AT&T for static IPs while watching for Google fiber to get to Pflugerville later on. Probably not for 2015, maybe 2016, we’ll see. We are on the cusp of Austin which makes me cautiously optimistic.

I want to take the server offline next weekend to back it up one last time before we make the jump to a location with closer to 99.999% uptime. It will make the Tenth Anniversary more satisfying. I may even regain its comments ability back.
