one year uptime and then some...

Well… the last couple of days were quite hectic! I left Groningen last thursday for Amsterdam. Friday I attended The Next Web, at a certain point I even got on stage myself! Unfortunately, I don’t have pics of myself up on stage with the Slurpr (if someone has, please let me know), even worse, I don’t know where I left the memory stick of my camera with all the pics from the conference at this moment. I changed memory sticks somewhere down the road in the last couple of days. Hopefully it turns up somewhere and only then I’ll be able to complete my set on flickr, until then I only got some pics from my phone, and I give you:

The Slurpr Management team!

(that’s Boris (on the right) and myself ^_^ ) (I never knew he had such a lovely sister btw *^_^*)

Yesterday I had a stag day/night of one of my best friends, so I guess you can guess how I feel at the moment… *^_~*

And now I’m collecting energy for the coming week…

Oh, before I forget. My webserver just went past one year uptime! (yes, all these Digg frontpages, Slashdot and a whole lot more were handled on a single boot!)

I managed to collect almost identical hardware for geektechnique server number two, so in a short while I guess this will be the highest powered personal blog in the world, don’t you think? ^_^

    I so want your server! Though I’ve not had any problems with my third host…yet! :S

    I would like that server too! We had some problems with both Fleck and our other domains on separate servers…

    haha, but I thought you guys had some fancy SUN-box? Maybe we should trade :D

    1 year uptime – take that, Windows!!

    so, no security patches for that kernel…

    >so, no security patches for that kernel…

    since you seem to be so knowledgeable, which security patches?

    I haven’t paid much attention to this, but I’m not aware of any major vulnerability that needs to be fixed right away.

    (and I’m looking/googling for it now, but I still can’t find it, so again: which security patches? ;-))
