70 Celsius? Jesus, what's on that level, a sauna? Maybe it's supposed to be Fahrenheit....

[SolarMarr]

So... If the cooling system fails in the next half hour or so... And the flesh-eating/regenerating bacteria indeed are some species of extremophile... Surely nothing will explode and release them into the atmosphere/clear of Antarctica's climate, right?

*gasp* about 30 more minutes

More uh-ohs...

Looks like what was frozen will now melt... Hope Dan's out of the way.

EDIT: Ok, this makes me feel better again:

Oh zeighy, it'll be all right. It's not your fault. It's just like that guy who had to shut down the containment system in the Ghostbusters movie. It's not HIS fault that Gozer awoke.

I guess the biohazard detectors, as well as what small amount of the netowrk and computer systems is required to make these alerts, remain online during a reboot. I wonder what else does...

[Badgerconda]

Uh oh. looks like the biohazard is... progressing.

So I emailed Scimitar a few things I hoped to get an answer about

First I asked him about the mirroring command. His response:

Quote:

It means LAINSY is making sure each of her mainframe has an exact copy of her so that if one goes corrupted, it can just get a noncorrupted copy from the other mainframes when LAINSY goes back online.

Then I said the thing we were worried about was the core error which he responsded:

Quote:

Yep, hoepfully it is indeed not a cause for any conecern. Usually that kind of error can be ignored for up to 48 hours.

So hopefully they can address it down there after the boot up completes.

Edit: Another new message on the website:

posse, are you willing to try making a call? It probably won't go through, but it's still worth a shot.

Oh sure, no problem, since I found my old PC microphone I can use Google Talk to call. Anyway, all I got was a recording that says, "This number does not accept calls right now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please hang up and call later."

I didn't leave a voicemail. If we don't hear from Dan within a day or two, I'll definitely leave one with my Google Voice number.

[Badgerconda]

Heh, Alberta facility. Either a funny coincidence, or the PM knows roughly where some of us are located.

[SolarMarr]

Wow, things kinda exploded here, eh?

Looks like the Alex/Scimitar comparison was more dead-on than I thought. It's interesting how he changed his tune once a couple of us were willing to work with him, too. d:

...Okay, I also just have to say that the "Far Eastern" and "France" reactor messages were delightfully vague when juxtaposed with the others. XD

[duke9509]

Ok, it changed to:

Quote:

Powering down mainframes . . . COMPLETE * ALL MAINFRAMES WILL POWER UP ON: 22:42:00 -05:00 GMT * * 60 Minute powerdown required for system power cycle * * DO NOT ATTEMPT EARLY POWER UP *

Looks like we play the waiting game for an hour.

[duke9509]

Uh, oh... the consequences worsen...

Eh, you beat me to the status message quote... Not re-posting, I don't like redundancies.
