Hahahha guy i host for free on my home server is up my arse about his site being down.
I suspect he dwells under a rock.

Rewatching Fargo 3.
geebus. multiple times in every episode the characters are presented with moral choices and every single time they choose wrong, they dig their own hole deeper
except for gloria and winnie , they do the right thing
it's interesting to see how the morally weak are no match for the truly evil and that there is no winning against evil, there is only survival

It is the traditional standby when the power goes out after all....

Couple throw downs on the chesty south intersection
oh dear. At least you're getting some entertainment.
Also I rang up United Energy and went through the automated machine and they said my area is suffering from a "Dim Light" issue.
I guess that sort of covers my problem even if it's just me experiencing it and not my neighbours.

So it's not safe to use much?
Have a read up on undervoltage. It's not ideal, no.
oh yikes! Hope my fridge is ok, it's still on.
Should be, i can see guys working on the poles outside the foodworks now, fingers crossed it's coming back on....
Sounds more like that might get your power back up as opposed to solving my problem.
The outage map that covers my area doesnβt so as far as the food works.
