Mild Downtime due to Weather

Genereal qrRO talk

Postby codemaster » Sat Jun 24, 2006 3:01 pm

As you all may or may not know, the electric company that provides our distrcit with power is horrible. Practically whenever someone sneezes we lose power.

With that aside, Thursday afternoon we had a large storm (110mph winds anyone?)
This caused not only us to lose power, but everyone in our district and a few nearby districts, including Time Warner (meaning the internet was down for all Road Runner consumers in the area, as well as some houses' electricity, like ours).

Nonetheless, we've been without electricity since Thursday night, but recently snagged a generator to power a few things (refridgerator, laptop, etc.). I also used my DS to scout out an unencrypted wireless access point and thus, I'm able to post this B) (yes, your Nintendo DS is useful for mild wardriving of sorts).

Nonetheless, the electricity is slated to be up and running (supposedly) by Sunday around noon at the latest (the earliest was Saturday at noon, which of course has already past). Basically, it means "whenever before Sunday night."

So, of course, qrRO is down since I can't really run my computer off of nothing (although that'd be nice).

In the mean time, I'll program a bit on my laptop and probably finish up "The Art of Deception"

Well, hopefully you'll get power back soon. It was storming down here yesterday, but it wasn't that bad.

Oddly I obtained my power back just a little while ago so I am repairing everything now and all should be good soon enough.
