Bungie Moving Office or Expanding?

According to a new job posting over at bungie.net, there’s a new listing for a ‘Personal Assistant/Gopher’, this may not seem like big news but there is a little tid bit in there that is very interesting.

Poised, professional and mature-minded Assistant/Gopher needed to provide personal support to Studio Head and to assist in the coordination of a major office relocation/move. Duties will include running personal errands for Bungie’s Studio Head, providing transportation services (vehicle provided) and other duties, as needed. Office relocation/move tasks may include, but are not limited to, procuring equipment, supplies and services as needed.

Now are Bungie planning on relocating from their current office in Kirkland, WA? Which was setup during Bungie’s era with Microsoft, or perhaps since their recent deal with Activision they are looking to expand with the recent cash injection to work on the ‘Next Big Title’.

Coppermine Tag Cloud on the Home Page

Coppermine gallery is a great piece of software, as of version 1.5.3 RC it has the ability to display ‘tags’ on the search page of your gallery and then you can click on one of those tags to display all pictures that have been assigned with that specific keyword. To see what i mean, see bellow:

Coppermine Tag Cloud

And when you click through from one of the keywords you should see:

Coppermine Search Tag Cloud - BruteSo that’s great, but the tags are hidden away on the search page, wouldn’t it be great to show these on the home page somewhere? Luckily is relatively simple to achieve.

Halomods.com and The Halo Modding Future

I recently went to check in with the goings on over at Halomods.com and to my surprise I was greeted with this message

To the guys at rework3d and anyone else who was a fan of halomods.
I’ve decided to discontinue the site for reasons you can probably figure out yourself. If anyone is interested in taking over the domains and the rest of the site, send a message outlining your future plans for the domain\site to [email protected]. Whoever has the best plans for the site can have it. Deadline: 20 feb.

-SG

Now I knew there were some big changes that went on, there was a new domain and stuff but I was very shocked to see it complete down with everything gone!

Cannot unsuspend domains – After Plesk Backup

For one of my domains, I noticed it was stuck as ‘suspended’ but was still functioning. This was due to my server going offline during a Plesk cp backup. There are two ways of fixing this:

If your domain is just that, a domain then run this command as root from your CLI

/usr/local/psa/bin/domain -u <full_domain_name> -status enabled

It should then tell you that it was successful, and hopefully your domain is back to normal. –

SUCCESS: Update of domain ‘example.com’ complete.

For domains that are part of a client, or if a client has been susspended simply run

/usr/local/psa/bin/client -u <login_name> -status enabled

Install Winrar (UnRar) on CentOS Linux Easily – CLI Version

It took me an hour or so to find out how to install which was a pain, so for anyone having trouble here is the code your need. Replace the wget with the latest version to install the most recent, up-to date version.

These instructions are for the CLI, terminal version so no GUI here.

# wget http://rarlab.com/rar/rarlinux-3.7.1.tar.gz
# tar xvzf rarlinux*
# cd rar
# make
# make install
