Is Geekhack down?

Seems to be down.

You should better make a post when it is up. Down and GeekHack is about the same thing.


PS:
Maybe I should add a cursor kit which contains LEFT, GH, RIGHT and DT.

Spin the wheel of misfortune to find out why today. I'm guessing jammed cassette tape in the server farm.

A chicken pulled out the tape at the farmhouse (pictured), where the server is located.

Oh no, is Reddit leaking again?!

Why such an offensive title, OP?

[TacticalStache]

Why such an offensive title, OP?

Because he's Ripster.

That's why he's banned from GH.

I thought that news would reach you fairly quickly.

Anyway, I don't want to bring my :triangle: or my general flame out right now. I think it's impolite the DT members who only get to see me once in a blue moon.

[Belfong]

Hmm, I knew he was banned, just didn't know he's Ripster! That makes a lot of sense, I should get out of this pointless thread as well.

[hwood34]

so here's where everyone is...

[rowdy]

But GH is down

Anyone know why?

I thought for sure it would be up by now.

[Findecanor]

Nobody reads the threads about scheduled maintenance, huh...

The maintenance I read of was done already afaik. Also more than 12h downtime for maintenance?

[StylinGreymon]

I have too much free time now.
I need my geekhack...

PBTforever is Ripster or is that just a joke? I think there's an account over at Geekhack with that name.

One of the geekhack mods posted on reddit it was a minor hardware failure.

[webwit]

Minor hardware failure.

[Muirium]

Mining accidents are no joke. The cleanup takes forever, as you can see.


Worried GHers, pausing between marathon sessions of hitting refresh.

[Hypersphere]

Yes, I noticed that GH was down most of yesterday and it is still down today. I did see a recent report about a new malware that especially targets Windows servers. I hope that they were not a victim of such a thing and that they can get back up and running soon with no data losses.

[vvp]

I cannot load geekhack from yesterday evening.

Nice, just like the cassette player I used with my first ZX Spectrum!

[JackMills]

Minor hardware failure, but still offline? That's probably not just minor...

[Compgeke]

Eh, could be like the one guy I know who runs a fairly large site who takes his time getting anything done. Even something like rebuilding from a backup after a drive failure took a good 2 days despite having full backups of everything (even configs).

[TacticalStache]

The provider didn't get to it yesterday. Sources say we should be back up this afternoon if all goes to plan.

Guess I am getting used to working for customers with 99% SLA's, forgetting that is not the case for every server or customer.
Curious though what the problem was...

[TacticalStache]

DT HAS TRIANGLES???

I gotta spend more time here.

GH IS BACK, SEE YOU NERDS IN SIX MONTHS

Ok all, we can stop hiding, they're gone now.
