Sorry for the down time overnight

[MetroMPG]

Someone forgot to keep feeding espresso to the server, and it fell asleep sometime in the wee hours of the morning.

Waiting to hear back on whether it was the waiter, espresso machine or...

So apparently it was a rift in the space time continuum:

Actual error message:

www kernel: [xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxx] clocksource/1: Time went backwards [...]

I hate it when that happens.

The server admin says it's a known bug, and will be fixed during a planned maintenance outage to upgrade another unrelated item.

No date yet set for that maintenance, but I'll let you all know as soon as I know. It'll be an overnight thing for minimum disruption (with apologies to insomniacs, night owls, members on the other side of our planet, and shift workers).

Bah, no big deal. I did cry a little though. It just meant I actually had to do WORK when I showed up to my job.

So that's what was going on.

time went backwards.....
wow. just wow. Please, don't fix this known bug, that's awesome.

I don't think it's just the ecomodder.com server. I sent some gmails recently that said they were sent "-1 minutes ago".....
