godamnit, remember paying Telecom for a second phone line to access internet in peace.

The bad old days.

Yeah glacial ATM, sadly

[Duluth]

Thanks for reporting it

Umm no idea why. Resources look fine. I've restarted everything and disabled most embeds

[nzzp]

@Duluth seems to be working again now. Thank you.

..and then it crashed

embeds are back on as they were not the culprit

Will build a fresh server with some better protection next month. Until then we limp along and I'll restart services regularly.

It was mostly fine during the day. It's worth keeping track of what time the slowness happens

I remember going on a New-Years road-trip, while being on-call - and needing to stop and beg shop-owners to plug my laptop into their phone-lines to connect and solve a problem.
I had a pager. Honest-to-god fucking pager.

And likewise, took 8-9 seconds for the above message to go from the Quick Reply field to being posted.

I opened this back up a few days ago. It was fine until tonight

The forum is hidden to guests again. I'll try a better fix tomorrow
