They were down for like entire day once because they moved that server to a new location by train. In a backpack.

Migrations should always incur downtime

I am disappointed. A few servers have been moved via train and stayed online. Codeberg should do better.

If that was their only downtime that year, that would have resulted in 99.7% uptime.

A company at which I once worked built a functioning server into the frame of a motorcycle. It was after I left, so I'm not sure of the details, including whether it had to be plugged in; but regardless, they called it "the world's fastest server!" and I think that's pretty funny.

I have a dead moyorcycle. I want to do this now.

On behalf of a company that hasn't been my employer for more than half my life, I give you permission.

[–] ZombieChicken@reddthat.com 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I don't need permission to do awesome things. All I need is the budget.

[–] toynbee@piefed.social 1 points 12 hours ago

Fair enough. With that I cannot help.

Lol, awesome.

Annoyingly I noticed that the status page only shows the past 22 minutes to 1 hour for the primary services. I have no idea why, and there doesn't seem to be a way to look further back. But the badge says 99.45% uptime over the last 14 days, so that's probably right.
