Defend the Great Seal, Carl Sagan Pale Blue Dot Skywalkers!
Joy!
they announced it completed. Not sure if it worked as intended.
Starship is supposed to coast for the next 30 minutes, until T+ 40
45 seconds in, amazing all engines look great
It is looking like it might go on first attempt!
Fuel loading has gone well so far!
ActivePub every platform has at least one major Intelligence Agency monitor who has to make a weekly report of ongoing. Do people really think 9/11 didn’t happen on message boards? A lot of secrets for corporate espionage and government leaks happen on message boards. There are worst things to waste staff time on.
“Lemmy” as an app has to have a file in case it comes up on some security matter - it has to have a definition on a Wiki somewhere!
most likely, yes. There was no notice of a planned outage, and the timing of them both going down within 15 minutes of each other. Lemmy server programming code isn’t very robust when it comes to performance, it is possible to busy up the database to a point that the site become unresponsive. I don’t know what is going on with lemmy.ml being entirely unreachable, the devs who run that server don’t normally work on weekends… and normally nginx responds with an error at minimum. Nothing at all is loading
lemmy.world is reachable, but no database connections, it has an “Error” page on every post I try to load. Which this post itself on Lemmy.world serves as example: https://lemmy.world/post/1578844
Lemmy.world down now for over 30 minutes, Lemmy.ml over an hour (I created this post on Lemmy.world before it went down). Distant Early Warning Sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrDj5XvZXX4
Kbin and Lemmy seem to not agree on time zones, there has been some mention on GitHub.
Major performance problems have been fixed in Lemmy in the past 48 hours, with more pending in the next 24. The latest code on GitHub is far better than 0.17.4/0.18.0 in terms of hammering the server.
The admin of Beehaw told me to post it on Lemmy.ml despite the message being that the server was down.
Beehaw is suppressing the news about a Lemmy outage, when their /c/Technology community is about rumors in the sidebar!
removed by mod:
Lemmy 0.18 (and earlier) has no ability to save the federation queue, when the server stops it forgets what it had in retry to send. I suspect the problem is more the other servers going down causing lemmy.ml to keep crashing on outbound content it is sending. There are hundreds of small servers out there subscribed to lemmy.ml’s communities.
I’m seeing 9 days old, it’s really stuck.
There is an open bug about internal crashes within lemmy_server: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3076
A restart of the lemmy_server service might get it fixed for one-time.
