Haven't been able to access them for the past 24 hours

I expect we will be back soon, but it has taken a few days before

They saw the porn was gone and decided "nah, fuck it".

You're not wrong, I'm always gooning

@ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net has to constantly remind me

I tried to convince myself it's just a friendly gang of frogs body-slamming some lily pads out in the garden pond, but the illusion was shattered when I realized even frogs need to sleep.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Do you mean Lemmynsfw? Cause I can't access it either.

It's been down for a few days now as far as I can tell.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 35 points 1 month ago (2 children)

First the porn, now the techno hippies? Oh god, who's next?

[–] TrackShovel@lemmy.today 13 points 1 month ago (2 children)

This, but he's seed bombing when he moves his hands

[–] abcd@feddit.org 6 points 1 month ago

Haven’t seen Techno Viking for a while 😁

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

!antiquememesroadshow@lemmy.world

Alsooo... he actually hates the meme

poVoq here. After a string of bad luck it looks like I will not be able to get it back up before Tuesday evening. Super annoying.

[–] ranslite@pie.dasneuland.de 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

You're not accidentally on a work trip in Asia? I ask for a friend.

[–] TrackShovel@lemmy.today 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I feel like I just missed the boat on this joke

[–] Blaze@piefed.zip 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The former admin of feddit.de was on a work trip in Asia when feddit.de went down. The instance never recovered.

[–] Skavau@piefed.social 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Did he just not want to bring it back up when he returned?

[–] Kris@feddit.org 6 points 1 month ago

No one knows 🤷

[–] TrackShovel@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago

Next up on locked up abroad...

[–] Kris@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It is a work trip to the middle east. I am unlucky with work trips and server maintenance 😓

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Do you not have a way of remotely bringing the server back up?

[–] Kris@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I bought a KVM for that purpose, but didn't get around installing it.

The other person able to do it manually will be available the same time as me more or less so I don't want to bother them.

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What is a KVM? I'm not familiar with the term. I just meant that you aren't able to SSH into the machine or something? But I guess if it's turned off and physically unavailable, that's hard.

[–] Kris@feddit.org 7 points 1 month ago

A KVM is basically a second computer that acts as a virtual screen and keyboard that can be connected to the server to remote control it as if you were physically in front of it, including hardware resets and access to the bios etc.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is that the second time this sort of thing has happened to you (where you were able to give us status updates, but not physically access your server), or was the previous incident I'm thinking of with a different admin?

Either way, I appreciate you, but I think your 'bus factor' is too high.

[–] Kris@feddit.org 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, I need to work on the busfactor.

The last time it went down was a similar situation and all the stuff I planned to prevent it next time I procastrinated on because the server was stable 🤦

[–] MelodiousFunk@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

I can relate. Been meaning to fix that hole in my roof for a while now.

[–] nothrone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 month ago

And also, some suggestions:

  • Your XMPP is also down. I just came across this by luck. Maybe adding your alternative username (kris@feddit.org) to your main povoq@slrpnk.net about is not a bad idea. That would help people find your posts when an outage is happening.
  • A status page (status.slrpnk.net) where you (admins) can leave comments? Perhaps, when slrpnk.net is down, automatically redirect there?
[–] TrackShovel@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago

Glad we have a timeline, much appreciated.

We don't go down often (heh) but when we do we make it memorable (also heh)

[–] umbraroze@piefed.social 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All the good luck with that!

These things happen, can't expect five nines from every server.

[–] Kris@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thanks. Should be back in a few hours hopefully.

[–] CafeFrog@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 month ago

Have safe travels, poVoq!

[–] nocturne@piefed.social 4 points 1 month ago

Thanks for the update.

[–] silence7@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Povoq said they would likely be able to fix it on Wednesday

[–] CafeFrog@lemmy.cafe 3 points 1 month ago

Pinging @Five@lemmy.cafe so you know we're gathering here :)

[–] PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

Damn. Hope y'all get your instance back soon ✌️

[–] hanrahan@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Tuesday I think the owner said?

[–] hanrahan@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

down again ?
