I missed you.
What did you get up to in the mean time?
Stuff on the alt. Normal rural Canada stuff IRL, which is pretty boring.
I just started reading The God of Small Things. It’s been on my list for a while. But I have to read so much for my work (I’m a math researcher), that I rarely have the energy to read fiction. Thanksgiving break gave me some free days, and I guess that worked out well.
OTOH, man, it’s sad to see SDF going down so frequently. Anyone has any recommendations for alts? I just want decent uptime, and lax federation policy. (I like to choose who I block.)
I’m on futurology.today, pretty sure it was just next on the lowest blocked/blocked by list.
We exist, apparently. Always an adventure!
Might need to create an official alt somewhere stabler, just in case. It’s just SDF has that special coolness factor to it.
I did end up creating a backup account on programming.dev but I’m glad SDF is back! Any word on what happened?
I’ve been working on a multi-ROM, a hybrid multi-system cartridge/disk image. Mostly got DOS+MBR working except something is still going wrong in my BIOS disk reading code. The read succeeds, but the system hangs when the function returns. Really want to get that sorted because I want to get GameBoy code in there!
Saw on bboard that the server storage is filling up, new hard drives are required
too much content
It’s a quarterly thing. I think the servers just need to rest for a while every now and then.
Upgraded all of my main infrastructure to 10gb fiber.
i think i might have to leave, or at least setup a backup account on another instance. :/
tried messaging on irc #helpdesk but didn’t get much replies.
back from where? how long has it been?
i fixed a rabbit messenger queue issue that was drivin me bonkers
