Well that didn’t last long.

Do I reset my staycation counter to day one, or do I keep this at day six?

@torvalds Just keep.

@torvalds Zkuste to bez drátů, milý Marconi

@torvalds sad :(

@torvalds What is happening? Are trees suddenly getting heart attacks?

@torvalds same thing happened again? Then it looks for me like you are in a loop, so you are on day 1 of this iteration i guess 😅

@torvalds Wait, what? Is the power cut again?

@brauner Yup. Back on my laptop and the big battery pack.

@torvalds Fork it!

@torvalds Hmmm… I say you keep it at 6.

Hope conditions improve soon out there!

@torvalds
Samuel L. Jackson would probably say: "Enough is enough! I've had it with these monkey fighting trees in this monday through friday place!"

@torvalds should I whisper whole house generator at this point?

@arisu I’m definitely starting to feel like trees are overrated.

It’s raining possibly subfreezing water, the trees (and ground) is cold, and it’s just at or below freezing. End result: trees with lots of ice on them. It’s actually very pretty.

But the branches suddenly weigh a lot more, and probably also catch more wind without being as flexible, so gravity and wind will do their thing.

Parking lots are pretty in their own way too.

I bet that when Joni Mitchell wrote Big Yellow Taxi, she hadn’t been through an ice storm.

@jejb We actually got a generator last time. Not the whole house kind. I used it for one day, and decided “never again”. The noise is not worth it.

I think I might buy a bigger battery, though. And I definitely will make the gas furnace have a switch between hardwired and “look, here’s a plug for a battery”.

@kirby @torvalds k6rm6 is 6 bitch

@torvalds That looks like a reset to day one to me.

@torvalds Keep the streak going

@edfloreshz @torvalds
Seems kinda weird for trees to keel over just like that indeed.

@torvalds should have run git prune more often :D

@torvalds They need to do some pruning in your area every year to ensure this doesn’t happen.

I'd suggest "uptime in percent", per week and per month.

@torvalds

@torvalds should we get you an axe? It's far more fun than the treadmill 🙃

@torvalds 😱​
Oh no... not again.

@torvalds Oof.

@torvalds This looks like a merge conflict between those branches and mainline

@torvalds :(

@ChampersBE @torvalds Unstable land maybe

@torvalds this is something out of a movie screenplay I swear

@torvalds This is a break...continue situation.

@torvalds Oh no! I just commented woohoo on the power restoration post. I hereby officially retract my woohoo.

@torvalds

@torvalds in my limited experience of power outages, if you get your power back after a big outage and it goes out again, you shouldn't have as long of a wait to get it back

My hypothesis: it's because most of the work is clearing out damage, re-stringing lines, replacing damaged hardware, etc.—actually turning the power on is relatively easy after that. If you got power, they've definitely done the hard part. They likely shut your circuit off to make it safer to resolve someone else's circuit

@torvalds how about "day 6+1", "day 6+2", ... Fingers crossed that the power stays on this time.

@torvalds
Less than 24h, maybe even 48h, does not count as reset, imho

@torvalds Groundhog Day

@torvalds I blame nvidia

I hope batteries were fully charged
