Uptime: Still a thing?

[Venn Stone]

Millions of years ago in the futures past I was full-metal J-man and left my boxen on for months at a time. That said, 2014 Venn has SSD drives in spooky RAID and my box makes with the desktop in +/- 13 seconds from naught.

Do you keep a boxen running 24/7?

well, my temp web server/DNS/firewall is 24/7… but that’s a server…

18:10:58 up 890 days, 3:56, 2 users, load average: 0.04, 0.20, 0.22

Servers don’t count… Uptime is the whole POINT.

My netbook stays up for months at a time… Cuz its so damn slow to reboot. Every once in a while I leave it in suspend too long and the battery trickles out like a old man’s piss.

My laptop will stay on for a week or two, sometimes. But truth be told, ever since I got both SSDs running on it, it doesn’t even take 15 secs to load my KDE desktop.

There’s no point anuymore, really. Unless it’s a server!
