April 15, 2012 Some network downtime tonight, all is well.


April 7, 2012 I've disabled logins to the old server; if you need anything killed shoot me an email at termina (at) gmail (dot) com

All znc, psybnc and irssi have been killed on the old server.


March 31, 2012 We have a new server and new connection! If you find you cannot log on, please use ssh.bbis.us (or 173.227.197.10)

All files have been transfered over; if anything is missing let me know and I'll restore it.

Make sure to start using the new server for IRC bouncers and what-not as the old server will not allow user logins starting next weekend.
March 28, 2012 Donate button now allows you to specify a custom amount.

March 27, 2012 Reboot due to server hang.

July 19, 2011 Thanks to SnZ for getting rizon IRC to increase their connection limit for us to 50

July 4, 2011 We're hosting the website again, so you can go back to using st0rage.org/~username

July 2, 2011 We are now off emergency power and back on the mains. Huzzah!

July 1, 2011 After a rather violent wind storm in my area, we have several power lines down. Running off emergency generator right now.

Pics or it didn't happen. Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3

ssh.st0rage.org
ssh.bbis.us
irc.st0rage.org
irc.bbis.us


May 15, 2011 Hard drive failed yesterday, moving all those drives to the new server must have made one unhappy! :)

Thankfully we had a spare, but now we're running without a spare so donations would be apprecated.

May 8, 2011 We're had a hardware upgrade!
Quad-Core 2.5Ghz
6GB DDR2 RAM

Feel free to make some donations as I save up for some new hard drives.

April 11, 2011 AT&T outage for a few hours.

March 18 , 2011 Looks like we won't be switching ISPs after all; rejoice! :P


March 14, 2011 AT&T is introducing a bandwidth cap, so I will be switching ISPs in the near future. This may mean extended downtime for st0rage, so I would encourage you to make backups of all your important files.
