        • @vaeringjar We’re just hearing about the impending shutdown of GSNO. Is there any chance that you’d be willing to transfer it to another GS Admin to keep it running?

          I’m in the US, so I can’t control a .no domain, but maybe we can find someone in Europe that would be willing to do so.

            • @vegos It seems that this was caused by a flaw in the RedisCache plug-in, which shared connections between daemon threads.
              Something about TwitterBridge made it more apparent.

              • @vegos Not sure what causes this – TwitterBridge has always been a mystery to me.
                But I'm looking into it.

                      Well, there's this answer.
                      There are !gnusocial instances out there that have ActivityPub enabled, !loadaverage isn't one of them yet.
                      When confidence in the implementation not making a mess in the database is high enough, you'll know :-).

                                          • @lnxw48a1 Well, don't think of -18°C or +38°C as those limit temperatures then.
                                            As you said, those are approximate numbers, so it's just circular logic to say that round Fahrenheit degrees are more round than the corresponding degrees Celsius. Just round degrees Celsius then, to -20°C and +40°C. Which do have symmetry as well.
                                            But it's not like running naked in wind with -10°C is safe, so the margin of error is way too big either way.
                                            As a counterargument I can say that 0°C being the point of water freezing (under "normal" conditions) is useful in daily lives too, as it affects weather, reliability of ice, all that kind of stuff.

                                            • Downtime was because the server had a SSD that failed. No data from LoadAverage was on that SSD, but the hypervisor OS was, so that made things dicey. Sorry for the fuss. There will be a hopefully short downtime sometime in the future to remove the failed drive. A replacement is already in place.

                                              Why the drive failed is unknown, it seemed rather out of the blue, but as far as we can tell, the controller just upped and went. It won't even SMART test.

                                              It could be seen as "creating new timelines" while travelling, while also not actually creating anything, just throwing out of synch.
