You know me too well XD

Discourse is easy to manage beyond the occasional ssh to upgrade the container.

Maybe not for long. Now that i have a job i can afford to move this to a proper server :smiley:

Good my server can finally get some rest from you lot and the fear of @TheDiddilyHorror posting questionable stuff that may involve santa doing horrible things :stuck_out_tongue:

I mean its a 47770k stuffed in a corner on a residential connection which isn’t exactly ideal considering the outages we’ve had so will be good to get something more permanent.

michaels is fine though, until we actually have regular traffic to the forum
not that 100-200 or so visits a day (and like 4x that if you count the views we (registered users) give the forum is bad something to scoff at but still lol

and if the forum grows to a big enough point, I have connections to be able to put a server in a datacenter (a real one) and have it connected with up to 10gb/10gb
though, the forum would need to be big to warrant it, or I would need to make enough from twitch/recycling/etc to pay for it, but still :smiley:

I mean yeah its fine but there are problems with running it like this, It can certainly handle it but namely it doesn’t really have that much redundancy when something goes wrong plus there is the question of liability and all of that, whether circumstances change with my ISP, the law, my whole house can burn and we’d lose everything and all that.

Just think of all the autism youll experince though

IRL is dramatically less derp than L1, even quakecon

well, maybe

thats not even the best one lol, nor the most “autistic”
quotes because is just gamers actually being themselves… but IRL, lol

the heresy, is almost complete (lol just a test fit, not finalised hardware for build. GPU probably but others not likely)
