I’ve been running a Plex Media Server off on old laptop for more than a year now without a hiccup. A few years ago Jess came home with these decade old Dell laptops that her work was going to throw away, and I’ve just tinkered with them off and on. Initially, I tried to run […]

Unfortunately their register/login system is broken: Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/admin/domains/projecteuler.net/public_html/includes/login_preprocess.php on line 11 So I’ll keep track on my own blog I guess […]

Set up your project Set up your remote preview server Set up an (S)FTP deployment connection, make sure you check “Automatically sync my changes” Go […]
