FSE will be down until replacement parts are delivered. Apologies to everyone on FSE. It'll be a few days at least. As noted in the other thread, you can check if FSE is back up or not at http://demo.fedilist.com/instance/freespeechextremist.com , view a stream of the status changes at http://demo.fedilist.com/instance/recent-changes?host=freespeechextremist.com , and if you are lazy, you can point your RSS reader at http://demo.fedilist.com/instance/recent-changes/rss?host=freespeechextremist.com and it will tell you when FSE changes status.

(Glowies not involved, or at least not as far as I know. If @p has federated to wherever you are, you can see that this is the alt mentioned in my bio, so they'd have to get both FSE and SPC. I've got alts all over, though, so if SPC goes down while FSE is down, probably I'll be @p or @p. You can probably tell I'm me, though.)

If you have a VM on that machine, ping me: your VM will be down, too, due to the hardware problem. Apologies.

Situation is a failed PSU on the box. Will be ordering replacements for both PSUs shortly. $150 total, $75 for each PSU, not bad. Machine was a refurb anyway, this kind of thing happens.

This is kinda good news: the weirdness that I was ascribing to "maybe a qemu-kvm bug or a blown cap on the motherboard or something", because even the IPMI wouldn't register anything when the machine locked, and it had to be power-cycled, so it had to be something weird or a hardware problem. Dirty power from a failing PSU would explain it, and it would explain why the thing would just cut out and why sometimes it'd take a couple of power-cycles: some circuit detects overvoltage and pops the entire system.

So, once I've replaced the PSUs, we'll see. I'm optimistic: recall that my previous plan was to stop all the VMs and to declare the box totaled if that didn't fix it and then to figure out a plan after that. This is a small, relatively inexpensive replacement part, and after fans, PSUs are basically the most frequently failed part.

Anyway, very stressful week after a very stressful few months, so it sucks for the site to be down but it's nice to have a little good news. I have work to do so I'll be doing that, and then when I am not doing that, I'll be working on Revolver in between periodic smashing of ^R (F5 for plebs) on the shipment page when there's a tracking number for the replacement parts.

On that topic, remember the bandwidth overage and me spending half a day hacking Revolver into a media reverse-proxy for FSE? Maybe I'll come up with something clever while waiting for the PSU. No telling. I'm a crafty motherfucker.

They forgot I'm him. Flipped a whole brick into an empire. They said they needed a stealth soldier so I put my hands onto the hibachi hot-plate at Benihana and burned my fucking fingerprints off. 今日は, you fucking github.
