    Your new site is better than the old one, that old layout looked just like your suit, but I always assumed that wasn't an accident. It did make me think of "Count Dracula's nephew fixes computers" though.

    That was not intentional. And yes, I prefer the white too.

    Using anything but UTF-8 is a crime!

    True, and even old WP installs used it without the actually making sure the DB was configured that way. So odd.

    That kind of ineptitude seems par for the course for WordPress. UTF-8 issues can't be blamed just on them though, consider the absolutely bizarre issue of utf8 vs utf8mb4 for MySQL, why the hell wasn't it implemented completely the first time?

    Interesting enough,.. I'm still running into the issue of OWA showing new email. Last time I check email, the OWA icon showed 12 but I opened it up, and had only three emails and none of them were new.

    I only have two minor complaints about it so far.

    Setup only works in IE. ActiveDirectory sync for users & SSO doesn't work on a domain controller without a GUI (core install) the sync tool will install. But you have to run a wizard from IE to complete it. It can't be completed from the tool. I guess I'll but it on my fileserver since I need to convert it to GUI anyway.

    Right on - but from what I understand, and from what I have downloaded, this is a linux machine, and it ties into the Windows Server, somehow... not sure, still studying..

    The easiest way to do it would be to mount the windows share on the ownCloud box and make that the repository.

    Having not tried to integratge AD let alone pass permissions, I have no idea how well this would work.

    Pertino does now have the iOS app and would simply pass AD auth.

    The Pertino Android app was broken with ICS or KitKat (I forget which). I have not tested if they fixed it yet with the new 420 release. The other problem with Android is apparently some changes in what 3rd party apps are allowed to write to. As long as you are pulling it down live you would be fine, but there seemed to be new security issues with writing to SD.

    If you are using multiple SSIDs from the same APs and using vlans they need to be tagged in those ports. Depending on the ap it may not have a managment VLAN setting so you either need to make it untagged on your staff network or mamagment vlan depending on how your network is setup.

    Our adult entertainment division is legally based out of the Netherlands and we still charge USD for everything, because even so most of our customers are from the US or are familiar with the currency.

    I guess I am weird..... I store very little data.

    I stopped storing movies/tv because I have been able to find whatever movies/tv I want on Netflix. Hulu Plus, etc. Anything I can't find on streaming, I can buy on Amazon. I don't watch much TV or Movies anyways.

    I don't feel the need to store music with many of other good options (Youtube, Music Services, etc.)

    I don't store a ton of photos.

    I have a huge colletion of PDF's and eBook, but I am not storing them.......

    I do store ISO's in onedrive.

    I do store personal documents (encrypted) - tax returns, etc

    I think you're probably normal. I'm the same. I don't know how much I have but I suspect it's around 100gb - nearly all of which is photos and music.

    You've made your point @scottalanmiller, and talked me off the ledge (mostly).

    Am I worried about my ISP, no more than I have been since the confirmation of Prism. Though considering problems like the ones recently found in the WiFi used by hotels, etc that allow attackers to completely take over those devices, using security/encryption everyone should just be the norm... not having to worry about setting up my own VPN termination point, or buying someone else's would be pretty nice.

    My guess is that some combination of MySQL and Apache were unable to cache all of their content. You had memory being maxed out, but not over taxed, so those subsystems were not "expanding into free memory" to leverage RAM. So they were running from disk instead of from memory.

    The additional of an extra CPU helps too. Rarely do workloads run ideally from a single thread. Having two threads lets there be a lot less context switching (a LOT less) while getting better cache hits.

    Ok, that makes a lot of sense.

    It's 120v most people call it 110v for some reason.

    Because historically 110 was used a lot prior to the national 120 standard.

    Related: most of the rest of the world has standardized on 230V.

    Yeah but that's been a very long time. That hasn't been since people only used lighting in their house. and it was even originally 100v then moved to 110v. That was long before the time of multiple phase distribution.
