I tried sleeping 0.1s every 5s or so. It did not help. Still crashed. I don't think swapping would even occur since neither mysql nor php grow their memory usage over time. It's not an SSD. It's good old rusty HD.

But can't anybody sue anyone for anything anytime? Does that mean anybody can bankrupt anyone at will? As far as I know, being bankrupt means you owe someone more money then you have. At what point does this situation occur? I would th

Well, if you pay me more then $0.05 for the $0.6/-$0.5 coin flip, I will happily sell you some. How much do you want?

If you don't need transactions, then MySQL with the MyISAM engine has several aspects I love: 1: Blazingly fast. As it simply hands DB writes to the OS and benefits from all the caching and optimization the OS does. Depending on your s

Searching for it on Youtube brings up videos of a pretty ugly interface. With 80s style text windows. I like OPs version because it just puts a one pixel border around the window and except everything is black.

That's cool! Are there other versions of this idea around? Maybe older, more stable and trustworthy solutions?
