Back From The Cottage

And so I continue. I'm back from my cottage now and while I was there I both relaxed and worked. I basically did what I wrote about in my last post but I was also helping my father repair the roof (as it's been deteriorating pretty badly). I'll be honest, when I went back up things went by fast and it's pretty hard to believe that there's about a week until I enter college now. For those you that don't know, I'll be taking a course named Computer Programmer where we do programming on computers and stuff. I have many things to look forward to and many things to look back on.

Aside from the good, I'll always be faced with the bad. I've been trying to sort out some problems with my computer and it's been going on ever since I installed my CPU's liquid cooler. I've been getting plenty blue screens of death and most of them pointed to my RAM but I don't believe that's the problem. After investigating some more I believe it has to do with some faulty drivers or something similar. I've been working on getting the correct ones or fixing corrupted ones so hopefully this will be fixed soon.

A bit on the business side, turns out I've just reached the amount of money needed to cover my server hosting costs. It's always a problem when I get customers before my invoices are due because it becomes more and more risky as you get closer to their due dates as you can lose customers in an instant. Hopefully after I pay these invoices I'll get an influx right after, but I'll remain doubtful. Some future things I want to do with my server hosting is centralize the game panel and do some more customization with it so things work a lot better. Other than that, things remain pretty steady.

I'll be addressing some "internet drama" concerning the online community named Cloud Sixteen before September 1st. It'll involve my views, opinions and other things, keep tabs on this blog before then to read about it.

As Summer slowly comes to an end, I hope to start up some of my projects (mainly cManager) and maybe start a kickstarter for it. I've never done one before but I plan on putting a goal of $5,000 for it. I've been looking around and it seems like a reasonable goal for my project and what I have in mind for it. I plan on making an "all-in-one" billing system including things such as a game panel, web panel, customer manager, store front, etc. It's most comparable to WHMCS but as I said, it'll be an all-in-one. It won't rely on 3rd party panels such as TCAdmin, cPanel, etc. It'll be a long project but I think I can do it, and if it takes off enough I'll be able to get some people to help me with it. I'll probably discuss my ideas about it in more detail later on.

To close on my post, I just wanted to inform everyone (if there is even anyone) that my future blog posts will probably be a bit shorter than what they're like now as they'll be a daily activity. Although, they could be longer as a lot can happen in a day.
