The Angry Systems Administrator

Welcome to the Angriest place on the web! Feeling annoyed? Has someone really pissed you off? Are you a disgruntled postal employee? Well this is the place for you. Why sit in your office and get all hot and bothered about that pointy haired boss, totally stupid co-workers, your mother in-law or anything else that makes you want to fly off the handle? Don't keep it in, share it with the entire world!

The Angry Webmaster

February 16, 2020

Greetings all. You may have noticed earlier this week that Angry.net, both the main site and the blog were offline for a few hours. It turns out the hosting company had an issue upstream. Their provider was working on routers and managed to misroute all of our hosting services clients, along with our hosting services on support and main web sites. Everyone was offline for about 5 hours before the routing issues were corrected.

IN the Webmaster's real world job, the dumpsters are gloriously aflame and have been for several weeks. The Webmaster's real world manager is visiting the European offices, this week and we anticipate a major shakeup over there.

We had just one rant come in this week, which is fine. The Webmaster will be working next weekend, (His turn in the rotation), so next week's updates may be delayed.

Until next time...

Stay Angry!

Greetings all. You may have noticed that Anger Central has been offline. Our Hosting service suffered a major outage, starting at around 4:30 AM EST. Not only was Anger Central affected, all of our hosting company's clients were affected, as was their own support web site.

The Angry Systems Administrator was finally able to reach through to them via Faceplant and twater, and it appears that it's something upstream from the data center. This update is being written as we wait the the repairs to the network. Obviously, if you are reading this, the data center is back online and we were able to upload our updates.

As of 10:40 am EST, our site was partially responding. The www redirect was not functioning, however going straight to angry.net or angry.net/blog2 worked normally. This appears to be a major DNS issue. Without knowing the actual details, the Angry Systems Administrator thinks that the DNS servers either had their tables corrupted or the servers were trashed and had to be restored from backups.

And, as of 10:50 AM EST, it appears that we are fully back up and running. The Angry Systems Administrator is looking forward to the Root Cause analysis that should be coming to all of our Hosting Services clients.

Until Next Time...

Greetings all. Well, it's that time of year again. Today is Superbowl Sunday! *yawn* As you can see, we're all so excited about the game, whoever it is that's playing.

We had a couple of rants come in this week, but otherwise it was nice and quiet. The Webmaster wishes it had been that quiet at his Real World Job. The phrase, "Multiple Dumpster fires" pretty much describes what he's been dealing with.

Finally, Great Britain has regained their freedom and sovereignty at long last. Brexit has finally happened and Britain has left the European Union building. It will be interesting to see what happens next.

Until next time...

Greetings all. Well, the Webmaster's ear is still clogged. He's also just received notification that his Primary Care doctor is taking a new job and the Webmaster now has to find another doctor...again. It's a good move for hsi former doctor, not so much for the Webmaster.

We had 4 rants come in this week. Actually there were 5, but as we sorted through them, one just made no sense. Perhaps the poster might consider reposting once he sobers up or comes down from his high.

The Impeachment trial of the Duly Elected President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, is now underway. The Democrats managed to bore everyone to tears and from what we've seen, managed to torpedo their own case. President Trump's legal team is now up and ripping the House managers several new ones.

The Webmaster also found out a sandwich shop he liked will close next week. Pity.

Until Next Time...

Greetings all. The Angry Webmaster has just come in from clearing the driveway leading to the Anger Central Primary Dwelling. We got about 6 inches of Greta Thunberg overnight.

On the rants front, we had a large number come in this week. That makes up for the lack of rants the previous week.

Today is the Webmaster's Birthday. He is <CENSORED> old. He's also still dealing with the aftermath of a really nasty cold. His ear is badly blocked up, to the point he went to see a specialist about it. Worst case scenario, the Ear, Nose and Throat doctor might have to make a cut in his ear drum to let the fluid out. The upside is he can't hear his Real World Job Manager screaming at him.

The political situation is going nuts of course. You can follow the Webmaster's comments and editorials over on the Blog.

Until Next Time...

Greetings all. It was a quiet week here at Anger Central, at least on the main site. No new rants came in. The Webmaster is still having health issues and is, for all intents and purposes, deaf in his left ear due to the rather long running cold he's been dealing with. (Hearing is also diminished in his right ear) He has an appointment next week with an Ear, nose and Throat doctor and hopefully he can do something to clear out his ears.

In the Webmaster's real World Job, his manager was off Friday, and one of his minions decided to have some fun. He has put one of those "Take a number" dispensers and attached it to our manager's desk. Sadly, the Webmaster is working this weekend and will be off Monday and Tuesday, so he won't get to see the reaction. :(

We've been watching the political disaster that Virginia has become since the Democrats took over the state government. We fully expect it to go sideways down there unless the Democrats pull back on all their totalitarian like plans. The Webmaster wrote about this on the Blog in an entry titled "The Virginia Boogaloo." The New Hampshire Democrats may want to pay close attention to what's going on down there, since New Hampshire actually has the Right of Revolution written into the state Constitution. However, that's grist for the Blog.

On the rants side of the house, we had nothing new come in. This is rather surprising considering all that's been going on. Oh well.

Until Next Time...

Greetings and happy New Year to you all!

Well, another year has gone by and a new year has begun. What will the new year bring? Hopefully a lot of people angry about something, and we think that's going to be everyone. The election season is now underway, and that should drive any number of people right over the edge.

The Webmaster is still dealing with the cold and ear infection his Real World Manager was so kind to gift him before he went out on vacation. The Webmaster has been plotting his revenge.

We've archived last year's news and updates, and if you have any interest, you can follow the link above.

For now, the Webmaster is getting ready for his weekend shift, which means he will probably be delayed in updating the site, and is banking a number of posts on the Blog since he won't have time to write anything much.

Until next time...

Stay Angry!
