   I turned off my French server after nearly five years. It
   wasn't possible to upgrade its Ubuntu install any more (or
   at least, to make it boot a newer kernel). Scaleway had
   accepted a bunch of government money to launch some physical
   ARM based dedicated servers, but I don't think it was a
   profitable endeavour for them.

   Of course, now that things run from my basement, I need to
   worry about the uptime of my house network. I had some
   firmware upgrades to do at the weekend which caused some
   blips and dropped my PPPoE session and I have some upcoming
   maintenance for the building power which will probably
   involve some downtime. Such is life, I guess.
