Request For Comments: Snakeoil 1.2.0 (Gear Isolation)
#6
As I sit here trying to recover it all. Really - things could have been a lot worse.

e.g. This website and everything that goes with it could be gone. Because until a few months ago everything was hosted on this machine that I've just lost. Thanks to generous donations from you guys, the more critical stuffs have been moved to the cloud. Sure the cloud servers I'm currenly using have no backups, and no SLA, but it's a fair compromise given the price.

Been around computers for a long time, this is the first time I had suffered a loss at this castastrophic level. Although I'm pretty tired from sleep deprivation right now, there's also a sense clamness. Obviously snakeoil development will have to wait till all this is working again. Hope I have your patience.

Snakeoil Releases in 2018 was slow - all thanks to various hiccups like this along the road. If you like to help out, please consider becoming a $2 patreon for Snakeoil. Hit the orange button to the right. This means you'd be donating $2 US Dollars to this project every month ($24 USD a year). For less than a cup of coffee (in Australian terms) a month, and with enough support, I can move a lot of this to a good reliable cloud service, and things like this is unlikely to ever happen again.

That is the best way for me to concentrate fully on development, rather than spending 80% of my time trying to figure out what is wrong with my computers. This system has served me well, it has also been running 24/7 non stop for years. Cracks are starting to appear, and they just seem to get bigger and bigger now. :/

Put things simply, if you want to see more Snakeoil releases, hit that orange button to the right and become a patreon.

Update: Fark.. This reminds me.. Paypal/Patreon notification emails is not going to work at this time. Will update once everything is back up and running.
