You are acting like this is a life or death situation. I think you may need to take a break from the internet.
Comment on Slrpnk.net outage
MyOpinion@lemmy.today 3 weeks agoThis is a very big issue for a server no mater when it happens. A sever you can’t reset and you go on a trip ridiculous.

You’re going to want to try “my little Internet” by Fisher-Price before using this adult Internet we’re on.

It usually can be reset, it’s entirely unexpected that a component that prevents that would break. You’re essentially implying that any admin who self hosts cannot ever leave their house for any length of time without being irresponsible because they cannot ensure with 100% certainly that a computer component won’t fail while their gone, or a lightning storm won’t fry something, or a flood won’t harm the servers.
Like, dude, c’mon. We’re volunteers, and poVoq is running this stuff for free. We’re not an enterprise business with multiple staff on hand to swap out failed components 24/7 so that our ‘customers’ don’t lose millions of dollars.
If anything, this only proves the strength of decentralized media, as we’re able to swap to a functioning node and continue on our merry way while the other is being repaired. Like what an incredible system.
