Server going slow after IPTables configuration? Try this

February 27, 2013

Recently I’ve started the migration of my company’s servers to a new provider. After checking that the OS installed on the -now- old servers was Ubuntu 8.04 (holy shit), I decided to make a fresh install of CentOS 6.3, cleaning up all the servers contents and setting up everything from scratch.

After setting my iptables rules (INPUT whitelisted, OUTPUT accept all) I noticed a big delay on every connection made to my server. After checking a lot of things, these two solved the issue:

Fringe series finale: My oppinion

February 24, 2013

Attention: This entry contains huge spoilers about the series finale of Fringe. Also, lots of negative opinions, if you like the series or don’t understand how sarcasm works, leave.

I’ve spent the last weeks watching the show from where I dropped it -the third season- and I can say that the final season is the worst of all. I don’t know if the show was losing audicence, if they only wanted to finish it, because I don’t know another reason to kill the show this way.

Tweeria: The MMORPG people without time can play

January 14, 2013

“Tweeria
summary”

Many of us -or maybe not, but let’s assume that- have played at least one MMORPG game in our life and we know that it could be very time consuming. Level up, going to instances, getting better year… and if you was hardcore enough: scheduled raids.

As we grow up we notice that the time for this kind of things fade away, but you still want to party with friends and get some_purples_. Until I found Tweeria, that brilliant idea of using your twitter posts to interact with your alter-ego on a MMORPG world.

Weekly project status: Dropping projects is hard

January 12, 2013

Since I wrote the last post of 2012 I have been wondering if I could finish -or at least, work- on all the projects or experiments I wanted to. The answer was easy: no. I just don’t have enough time for all the stuff I want to do, so I have made some decisions about my projects.

Project herobrine …dropped!

“Early draft of Project
Herobrine”

The first time I did something about this project was like 2010, as some of you have guessed by the name of the project, its minecraft related. It was intended to be a wowhead-like minecraft database but not only on PC.
