Thanks again, Dreamhost.
Well, I WANTED to show you guys Page 011 today, but I guess my web host is having some weird problems again. The site and mail and everything seem okay (if not a bit slower than usual), but I can’t ftp anything to the server.
Eh, you get what you pay for, I guess. Sorry for the delay.
Anyway, if Dreamhost doesn’t have things worked out by this evening, I’ll figure something else out. I think I can still tack images to my WordPress (and Livejournal) posts, so I’ll probably just stick pages in the blog down there for the time being. It just means you’ll have to scroll a bit, is all.
But we’ll see what happens.
We now return you to Arnold in Rio, already in progress.
DreamHost’s main problem is that they oversell like crazy, which means that their servers tend to be overcrowded. This leads to servers being slow or even crashing.
If you want a host that doesn’t oversell I recommend WebFaction. You get a bit less diskspace (but more than you probably need anyway) but the speed and stability gain is well worth it.
I’m sure that the comic will be well worth the small delay. Looking forward to it!
Arnie’s accent is getting sooooo American. It just oozes fakeness, and I can hardly tell most North American accents – aside from obvious ones like Texas or New “Yoik” apart (despite being Canadian).
It seems like the entire west coast is having computer troubles today. Google and YouTube are having some issues. (YT has a server in LA, probably near DH’s neighborhood.) Of course, it also doesn’t help that China is being a real Internet troll this week, and not just their hackers.
When a medium size country like Pakistan blocks internet traffic it causes a ripple effect through out the internet. Sort of like a 40 car pile up. But when a big country like China does something stupid like block out alot of websites, it’s like a 100 car pile up.
