Forum going offline in 30mins for a backup

Guess I'll have to get up off my ass and do breakfast. Thanks for the warning.

Duluth

Ok the backup is complete. That was quicker than I was expecting

Things have got slower than Sevu Reece in the open field.
May be just me, but thought I should report it @Duluth

bayimports

godamnit, remember paying Telecom for a second phone line to access internet in peace.

The bad old days.

Machpants

Yeah glacial ATM, sadly

Duluth

Thanks for reporting it

Umm no idea why. Resources look fine. I've restarted everything and disabled most embeds

nzzp

@Duluth seems to be working again now. Thank you.

Duluth

..and then it crashed

embeds are back on as they were not the culprit

Will build a fresh server with some better protection next month. Until then we limp along and I'll restart services regularly.

It was mostly fine during the day. It's worth keeping track of what time the slowness happens

I remember going on a New-Years road-trip, while being on-call - and needing to stop and beg shop-owners to plug my laptop into their phone-lines to connect and solve a problem.
I had a pager. Honest-to-god fucking pager.

I opened this back up a few days ago. It was fine until tonight

The forum is hidden to guests again. I'll try a better fix tomorrow
