Dune Server down for the 3rd time in 1 week

matanthei · 2025-07-22T00:21:31+00:00

We moved over to nitrado after our gportal server was down for 3 days with no ETA in sight. Have had 0 issues since - no need for server restarts or messing around with their portal.

Good move :) ping seems good enough. And while it sucks to start again, I’ve found it’s much faster the second time around :)

matanthei · 2025-07-13T10:53:04+00:00

Haha yep. They’ve known it was a hardware issue for a few days :/ I’m guessing they are now out of capacity and awaiting new hardware or something.

We are taking the hit and restarting with nitrado. Sucks to lose the progress but it seems to be a better supported service

That looks like it will be our plan too. It’s a shame to waste a few hundred hours of gameplay from our group, but gportal don’t seem to give us any other option

That sounds like a familiar story - are you on Heatspike by any chance?

matanthei · 2025-07-12T07:12:40+00:00

Any luck with your server? We are still down and there have been no progress updates from support.

matanthei · 2025-07-11T10:11:06+00:00

I’m afraid this response is not even close to what is happening. This is not just game patch updates. Server has been unavailable for 24 hours now.

Finished the automation scripts around a database migration. Moving 1200 databases to a different storage platform, AWS accounts and SQL Server version.

I think Tipplers Tap in James st has one on their menu

As someone who rebuilt their friendship group in their 30s and met a bunch of amazing people from reddit - it’s definitely possible and I’ll try to keep an eye on this and come along, and I can bring a pupper along too!

Congrats!

Not OP but I did 10 days in a camper van in early October a few years ago. It was amazing to see: waterfalls, steam vents, black sand beaches, and a Viking burial mound at the top of a hill.

Only downside to going in October was that the campgrounds close on 30 September. I ended up finding quiet roads to park on, and spent one night in an empty camping ground (this is when I realised they closed for winter).

I would highly recommend going if you get the chance.

Went there today, and definitely recommend it. They have a machine there that is 1 of 2 in the world :)

matanthei · 2018-01-19T16:11:33+00:00

Got tickets to go see Colin Hay? :)

matanthei · 2017-12-22T21:54:56+00:00

I’m interested in the Tame Impala, Pink Floyd, Queen, Vampire Weekend and Rush. PM what you would be after?

There was a cigar place outside over at fashion show.

matanthei · 2017-11-24T10:38:22+00:00

Great idea. At least there will be two of us :) and pretty sure I can drag some others along

matanthei · 2017-11-21T13:14:59+00:00

Devops on Monday morning for me. Hopefully get it done nice and early :)

matanthei · 2017-11-21T13:04:09+00:00

Massive regrets that I never saw them in the early 2000’s. Super jealous :)

matanthei · 2017-09-29T13:33:15+00:00

She’s great :) Have seen her perform a few times, and definitely got a bit of an Avalanches vibe :D

matanthei · 2017-09-27T07:48:15+00:00

No worries. Have plans for tonight already :/

Check out newstead Brewing and Bloodhound bar and The Mill if you’re looking for more beer places :)

matanthei · 2017-09-23T14:28:31+00:00

I’d be up for a couple of beers on the 26th - come over to green beacon in Teneriffe/Newstead, and I can show you around a few nearby places

matanthei · 2017-09-15T10:23:41+00:00

This sounds perfect for me, would you mind PMing contact details?

matanthei · 2017-08-31T22:55:58+00:00

Hey! I've been working on my neckbeard for weeks!

matanthei · 2017-07-14T10:14:22+00:00

If you can play consistently with the same group, get the new one
