Head-Fi Update on Facebook

[nickknutson]

New update from 2 hours ago:

"still at the datacenter with the boys, everyone. If I can stay awake, we're going to work on getting the site up this morning. If I fall asleep, then this afternoon. We're a little bit behind schedule tonight (this morning)."

Thanks for the update tyrion.

Remember Dusty, you're a mod too.

+10 irony recognition points for you

Now...lets all wait to see all the massive amounts of "was head-fi down?" posts when it's back up and running. Also, all the bitching that shit is missing, and they're "omg, so glad it's back up, I was going crazy!!!!"

And thus we begin week 3 of the outage.

I have a LARGE bottle of pharmacy grade caffeine that i'm willing to donate

to the cause. (About 2lbs left in a 5lb cannister)

Maximum safe dose is 500mg every 4 hours. 2.5 grams per day.

I could ship enough to make sure jude stays awake for at least 2 more weeks...

will the "pharmacy grade" prevent the heart attack that will come with it?

What time/date is it over in the US? It's past 7pm of the 24th and Head-Fi is still down.

Agreed. I vote that those posts are automatically deleted.

Thanks, guys. Unfortunately, we just couldn't finish as much as we thought we would at the datacenter last night and this morning, so a return trip tonight is in order. Because we will also be working on work-related things--which will involve brief downtime--we want to do it late tonight, during our lowest-use period (for work).

While there, we should be able to finish up with Head-Fi.org. I'm actually in Head-Fi.org right now, and things appear to be working quite well. I've been posting test posts and threads, doing searches, adjusting settings, etc. (we essentially started from a fresh install, and imported the content back into it). Other than what I've already described as still missing in my previous posts, I'm currently alone in what is otherwise a fully-functioning Head-Fi.org.

Thanks for your patience.

Now I'm off for a couple hours of sleep.

That is why you can only take 500mg every 4 hours. The container

has all sorts of warnings on it. Picture on monday.

If you take 2 grams at one shot you are likely dead in 20 minutes.

Powerful stuff.

So that makes it sound like they're going to try to take it live tonight but to expect periodic outages as they continue to tweak things. Translation, buckle up kids, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

I actually laughed out loud at that.

"Clear!"

[PinkFloyd]

I hope it goes back to 006 that was the best time. Pretzels vs. Churro's and Pink FLoyd

THose were the days.

I hope he manages to get it back in it's entirety, would be a shame to see all that hard work and all those posts lost, I wish them the best of luck and hope to see the place back to normal ASAP.

When they have to go back to 2006 you'd be still a respected member there instead of the banned arse from the U.K.

Might be quite entertaining to watch all the "wrongdoers" running amok after a relaunch .........

[HiGHFLYiN9]

Hey Pinky, I sent you a long-ass message right before you got banned, so maybe you'll get to read it

He's a liar...it's still not up

There were no guarantees nor promises made.
