Yeah, so, failure to babysit the db node that was scheduled for a reboot on the 5th resulted in a bit of database FUBAR that left us temporarily losing everything from then to now. Fortunately we had a backup less than six hours old, restored from it, and appear to be copacetic now. Except for the missing five hours and change.
I'd usually make some sort of dumb joke here but it was already four hours past my bedtime when I found out about the problem. My brain is no work good anymore. Fill in whatever dad joke or snark about getting a do-over for a change strikes your fancy.

This is a silly interpretation of my work, and events.
It is not called "support" when an author is selling their work, or when an activist asks for members of a community to assist with a project.
I am not asking for charity, I am saying, why the fuck are none of you doing anything about the stated values this community has being attacked on all fronts, to the extent they may disappear.
Also, by contributing reams of content to this site, that is a form of payment in the form of labor. One of the primary failures of the current iteration of the internet is that our work filling it with interesting content is considered charity, while the people who simply own the infrastructure and had first mover advantage due to timely investment, accrue all of the financial rewards of our work.
Every single rioter in chicago actually does deserve a piece of the internet fortunes of bezos and gates, and has a reason to be angry that all of their posts, which serve their data harvesting and marketing engines perfectly, do not generate income for those who did the labor and made the contribution.
That you cannot see the injustice and theft taking place here, which directly affects especially people like myself who do not only shitpost but put entire reams of content online, at risk to ourselves even due to the political dicey nature of our times, says a lot about the extent of your ignorance and inability to see anything other than the tiny portion of the system that is visible to you.
The rest of us who can deduce and infer and analyze larger systems and see them for what they are, are getting quite tired of having to explain things to people like you, as you insult us for being the ones demanding free stuff.
You should rethink your life, this comment of yours betrays epic and willful ignorance and more than a little stupidity, and worse, you are calling the person who is trying to help you get your ostrich head out of the sand the asshole.

Dude, lose the paranoid schizophrenic shtick. It's no more genuine than any of your other personas and it's ceased to entertain.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
