  Regional food (was Re: the best laid plans of mice and men)
 
(...) Really? How odd. In my experience you can't be in Scotland for more than 12 hours without *seeing* a haggis, and more than 48 before someone corners you into eating it. Secretly, I beleive that none of you eat it at all when tourists aren't (...) (26 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) I did not mean ridicule anyone or anything. I feel like ridiculing someone right now, but I am too busy... Scott A (...) (26 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: straying off-topic & marmites (was: Re: the best laid plans of mice and men)
 
(...) This is a key point - I think Todd covered it. Rules do exist, and they should be respected. However, enforcing them in a "jobs worth" manner just alienates everyone. If we all sifted through each and every post and winged about infractions at (...) (26 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.terms)

  Re: Load too high?
 
(...) No. Depending on what the processes are doing, you can have dozens of httpd processes all impacting the load average very negigibly, especially if they're blocked on I/O writes to the socket. --Todd (26 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Load too high?
 
(...) Umm, isn't that what MaxClients is for? The only thing I use load triggerd shutoff for is the Virtual Explorer, since someone could (and has) pointed a rude paralell robots.txt ignoring web-sucker at it and caused 40+ povray renderings to (...)

  Posting notices about ldraw.org (and other website) inaccessability
 
It seems to me that every so often someone posts about not being able to get to www.ldraw.org. I'm concerned with some problems that users of the site may have getting to it - its definitely frustrating every time a site goes down. One thing I'd (...)

  Re: Load too high?
 
(...) Thanks. My fault. I launched a process which forked a bunch of times to do some updates and things. I noticed it too, and raised the threshold. I set the threshold at a low conservative value initially. It's still a bit conservative now, but (...) (26 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
