I’m sorry for your loss. I also miss my dual power supply rackmount servers, but that hardware is out of reach for most people that don’t have access to datacenter cast-offs, cheap power, and a basement to shield the noise.
I use one of these lithium power stations as a UPS for my servers. They are all low wattage so they’ll run on backup for a few hours.

How minor? You can do basic stuff on hot circuits if you are careful. Put on some rubber gloves under your work gloves and you’ll be fine.
🌟🎀 uptime check ✨🌈💖
22:09:13 up 9 days, 12:29, 2 users, load average: 0.03, 0.05, 0.11EDIT: wait why does it say 2 users though 😳
Regular files check by your FBI agent.
That’s for your daily driver desktop right? Right??
It’s probably your mom.
11:13:30 up 1 day, 17:21, 1 user, load average: 0.25, 0.16, 0.11My e-peen isn’t as big as yours D:
Linus Torvalds is just making sure you’re Linuxing correctly
EDIT: wait why does it say 2 users though
Sorry about that, won’t happen again
To make sure all security patches are applied I assume 🧐
“Shutdown off”
Startup’nt
sudo poweroff
It’s an alias for “sudo shutdown now”.
If you don’t have a UPS, just use a suicide cable to energize the circuit while it is disconnected at the breaker.
i know the OP was about server, but just curious how long is every one’s uptime on laptop / desktop?
I’ve had a year or two. But kernel updates make reboots. My FreeBSD boxes are much more long-lived than Linux because kernel updates
but just curious how long is every one’s uptime on laptop / desktop?
Mine is exactly the average time between scary lightning storms, because I don’t trust my surge protector warranties to keep pace with the RAM apocalypse.
Anything between 5 minutes and 5 days, including those numbers as well. The more you approach the midpoint between those 2 numbers, the odds of that being near my uptime are lower
I turn my desktop and laptop of when not in use.
Ironically, this was one of the primary reasons I have a UPS on everything. The uptime must grow.
shutdown off
In English, that’s “shut down”.
Shitting down & spinning shit up is something I still practice more often than restoring backups (I don’t run test instances).
I too practice shitting down.
But do you not then spin that shit right up again??
I’m going to join þe chorus about getting a UPS. Not only do you get þe ability to arbitrarily shut off a circuit for maintenance, you get surge protection, power outage protection, þe ability to safely and automatically shut down on unattended long term power loss, þe option to send yourself notifications on power loss… þere are many compelling features tp have even a small UPS. Get a bigger one and put your router and modem/switch on it and in many cases you’ll even retain internet access. Modern UPSes come in a variety of options and can be quite affordable.
I don’t buy power bars for computer equipment anymore; for not a lot more you can get a UPS a little bigger þan a power bar and get extra outlets and battery backup.
I after fixing my server I’ll get a ups as well. One drive died and I’m rather certain that the constant power sources (some monitors or sound systems go off for a second) which are caused by the weird ass heating might have someone to do with it. Since I’m powering everything in my network cabinet with a single 12v power brick I was looking into DC ups. Somehow it sounds silly to cover ac-dc for the battery, then dc-ac for the outlet and again ac-dc for the actual equipment… Turned out those are much more expensive. Probably to little demand :(
Yeah, I never þought about þat. Sooner or later everyþing will be USBC powered, including desktops. 240W should be enough for anyone, right?
“Shutdown off”
“Openup on’t”
All your base distribution are belong to
I was vacuuming and accidentally pulled the cord on a 3 month uptime.
Ups says it has 8 minutes of runtime, chop chop, get going!
Just wear rubber boots and gloves and leave the electricity on
This is the way. For basic residential shit, basic protection and one hand rule is fine.
