Downtime? oh noes!
For about an hour on Saturday, the site will be taken off line for maintenance. What maintenance you ask? well, my neighbors annually delight in erecting a massive ice rink right beside my parent’s house (Canadian eh?). Since this house is rather old, (late 30′s, early 40′s) the basement has a tendency to leak. as the current server is sitting on the ground, this poses a slight water problem. Recently at a local technical flea market, I picked up a rack mount case for an ancient 486 server. My father has been converting this case for the purpose of relocating the server among his racks of test gear (which the server currently sits under.) and we plan to move the PC on the weekend. I plan on hosting my own interblag shortly, and I will provide pictures of this epic event. my only regret is that I’ll have to reboot the server, which to date has had an impressive uptime of 177 days 20 hours 11 minutes
