And we’re back

2 September 2009 in Uncategorized

After experiencing my own ‘Tard moment, Ubuntard.com is back.

Previously hosted on fsckvps.com (whose name can also be accurately interpreted as “fuckups”) we’re back up and running at nearlyfreespeech.net, whom I endorse mightily.  The previous hosting company suffered catastrophic failure and destruction in early June at the hands of an unnamed hacker exploiting a weakness in the management portal and bad administrative practices.  Most of the VPS systems hosted by VAServ and fsckvps.com were totally obliterated.  Ubuntard.com was one of these.

Always the tard myself, there were no full backups of the Ubuntard.com database or site.  I used Google’s cache and my own local copy of the theme to rebuild the site.

As a result, you’ll notice that:

  1. Previous comments are missing.
  2. A post or two may be missing.

C’est la vie.  Oh well.  Live and learn.  I hadn’t thought the site important enough to backup at the time, but after a few weeks of idleness, I was bitten again by the rage welling up inside me surrounding Ubuntu and its community.  So with little further delay, on with the posts and welcome back.
