OMGWTFDOWNTIME
« on: July 17, 2013, 06:47:56 PM »
First off: My sincere apologies for the downtime.

I don't know all the details of it, I wasn't doing the work, but server upgrades did not go entirely to plan last Friday leading to the start of downtime.  Once the data was off it was then a matter of getting it up to somewhere that could host it, being 20GB this took slightly more time than I would like, only to find hey... need to make some changes before it will actually work.  So, second upload.  And some fiddling.

Things are now up, and there should be warning before any additional downtime but...  excrement happens.

Again, sorry for being down.

I think you're overreacting, just tar and feather should be enough... They can't host the website from the abyss.

I don't know, there are pretty long cables out there on the market.

Keep calm and move along.

Ya.... so this one was my bad.  I did not give The Doctor much of a heads up on the intended upgrade, and then it did not go as planned, and that was before I spent a weekend in the middle of nowhere with no internet access.  Got the VM moved to another location now while I spend some more time getting the server upgraded and such.

Windows is a structural weakness. Geth do not use them.

Except Tran. He must be a very rebellious Geth.

Keep calm and move along.
