Slrpnk.net outage

thirty minutes later
Okay I touched grass and now I'm bored and itchy
-
For that, I'd highly recommend a power conditioner with outlet controls (and preferably sequencing).
Most are pretty expensive, but you can get something like a surgex squid or a gude expert power control for a few hundred here and there, which will give you great data on power usage as well. You can also grab an older model with serial and/or relay controls, and use a pi or whatever is handy to trigger it. Actually have a setup like that in a few racks for clients (mostly orange pis and a couple of Asus tinker boards).
Hope your trip goes well!

Try not to stress too much about it while you're away! If nothing can be done, nothing can be done. Solarpunks need to be resilient to things like this anyway. Community over convenience.
-
communicative about issues
Aren't most admins this way?
*glances at your instance name*
Ah...
-
Thanks for letting us know! Try not to worry about it too much, it’s all good
-
Thanks, I am trying, but it really is quite annoying to lose access like that.
-
Glad that at least someone sees a positive side of it, because I sure don't... well at least it gives me a bunch of ideas how to avoid such situations in the future
-
-
Thanks for the update, good luck with your trip.
-
Thanks for the heads up! My Main account is in slrpnk, so I'll set a reminder in an month to switch back. :)

pretty hands-off
Given that the single admin @SDF@lemmy.sdf.org hasn't been active in two years, yeah, I'd say that counts as "pretty hands-off". The SDF organization as a whole will probably be around for decades to come, but they don't seem to care that much about their Lemmy instance.
-
Yeah! It's definitely worth adding to my list of migration contenders now that lemm.ee is closing and I have to jump ship
-
Opengear cellular backup appliance with serial/console connectivity to hardware.
-
You will unfortunately have to get rid of the lemmy.ee links since they are closing down very soon.
-
I will no longer read that domain as "slurpink" thank you
-
I miss BBS.
-
Many of the .ee communities are in the process of migrating, so hopefully the list can be updated with their new homes.
-
I this it’s a law that servers run 100% perfect until the literal day one leaves town with zero way to return home. One of the many reasons I got all my services off of unraid.
Very cool to learn you’re running your own machines. Do you go into detail about this anywhere?
-
I've had the opposite--personal trip and work server problems.
-
Might it also be possible/feasible to send an "email blast" to everyone with a slrpnk.net account? It would probably be quite complicated to send that many emails at once without getting blocked by the major email providers, but hypothetically we've all registered with emails...
Just spitballing ideas for the future. Everything's fine now. Gives me an excuse to spend a little more time on the Canadian end of the fediverse. :)
