New Server going online today!


Recommended Posts

i'm seeing 3 IPs for www, that correct? :p

It was a few hours ago, you must be caching your dns results, there are only 2 setup

Ah, so this is why i cant search? :p

Yes, the search engine will be down whilst the move is in progress, use google with site:neowin.net if you need to find anything.

The "latest forum posts" thingy on the front page stopped updating for me, about two-three hours ago.

Still seeing these old posts on it:

(yeah, I saw Dave's signature).

There may be one or two minor issues like that, they're not high priority for checking out so long as we're online while the servers are moved across.

I say that, but I just fixed it, was just a minor permissions error on the files, all sorted now.

In other news, Simon360 discovered the reason behind some of the recent slowdowns we've been experiencing and together we've put together a patch that will prevent that happening again, so not only more powerful servers, but more efficient code will come out of this process :D

Yes, it's true, Simon doesn't do servers :p Nevertheless, others have done worse...

/me glares at blackice912... and we all know why.

EDIT: Here, I'll even do it for you Ste :p

Interesting... I live <30 mi from both the datacenter in Southfield & the offices in Plymouth yet my ISPs routing via BGP and their backbone goes out to Ohio, Cincinnati and then Chicago for the traffic peering/exchange before coming back to SE MI. Funny how BGP/routing/traffic aggregation works. Anyways glad the datacenter is in MI.

Nothing is running on the Michigan box yet, your route should take you to Chicago, where the current boxes are

Okay, the trace lost me as to where it took me once I hit Cogent. There were a lot of hops. Tonight at just about Midnight EDT I got a lot different trace. I'm just three miles into Michigan above South Bend, IN. This is what I get now:

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
