Just used it myself. Still very much working.

Downvoted for downvoting pineapple 😡

Goddammit Loch Ness Monster!

Came to the comments to say the same thing. Cool collection, but invest a few bucks on some cable ties my dude.

That’s not just a hot take, that’s straight up nuclear.

It just sounds like slavery with extra steps.

I think you could say the same for a lot of countries. Even the ones that seem to know what they’re doing make braindead decisions sometimes.

I was a little confused since I’m from America and am used to all utilities being privately owned, so I did some research. It does look like Japan’s government owns a majority stake in the company, specifically because of this disaster. The private stakeholders are still there but own minority stakes. So yeah, the government of Japan dropped the ball here. It’s strange that I read the linked article and they never mentioned the government once.

Yeah, sucks to have two in a row. I think the likelihood is a little low that I “won” the lottery twice. But statistics are weird. Either way, replaced it with a Fold 4 and love the new device.

Ah, that’s fair. Best of luck either way. This is the tough part of admin work. FWIW, the stability we’ve had thus far has been pretty impressive!

Lemmings

Already seeing high latency for our instance. Guessing everyone realized the impending doom and created accounts on one of the easier instances to join. Welcome, fellow lemmings!

Everyone on the internet is a dog unless proven otherwise.

I mean…woof.

Unless one of your subscribed communities is a victim of this spam. That’s kinda rough.

So is there a Las Vegas on Mars?

I’m not familiar with what the server architecture looks like, but is there a possibility of using a load balancer in front of the instance’s server and swapping a “beta” server into the load balancer when you need to do testing? You could basically migrate your traffic with zero downtime, assuming Lemmy’s architecture allows for it.

Electric Boogaloo?

Dude, I’d ask so many questions if you brought that up in regular conversation and I’m not in your line of work at all. That sounds awesome.

I’m a sysadmin. No one really knows what people in my profession do, so they just assume it’s all servers and computers. I’m all about the automation tools, though. With the right tools and credentials, you can install apps, create accounts, provision a new VM, parse through your emails, brew a cup of coffee, and let your wife know you’ll be home early so she can get rid of her boy toy before you get home…all with a single click.

This is legitimately one of my fave movies of all time
