LiveJournal Servers Go Down
Wind writes "According to any journal hosted off of LiveJournal.com, the LiveJournal data center Internap has suffered a critical power failure, leaving all of LiveJournal and its content temporarily offline and requiring the revival of 100+ servers. Perhaps Six Apart wasn't quite prepared for the responsibilities of a website of this size? Updated information is posted here."
We're out of combinations of phonetic sounds. When we make up new words, they sound so fucking retarded, like blog. Say it out loud. Tell me you don't feel like you just lost 100 IQ points.
Why can't we just call them what they are: online diaries/journals?
I don't need no instructions to know how to rock!!!!
Doesn't California have a long history of power problems? Why burden ones self with the costs of putting a server center there instead of moving to another state with a better infrastructure. Another negative externality of doing business in California.
I don't keep a lid on my coffee so when I walk around I look busy -me
There's an oft used, almost cliche saying that applies here: "Easier said than done." How the hell are you, the sysadmin, supposed to go around checking out the power redundancy of a huge, well-known colocation facility? That is what THEY are supposed to do, and NO facility will let you sample the diesel generator when you see fit. Of course, it's really easy to sit on the sidelines and yell at the players. You are an idiot. Go back to your parents' basement and "make sure as hell" that your head is screwed on before you feel like commenting again.
Never mind the teenage girls, where will the poor trolls go now that the community that nurtures them is gone?
GCHQ Quantum Insert installed. If only our tongues were made of glass, how much more careful we would be when we speak
