Yeah, I'm not sure what relation that has to this solar powered website.
This actually cool.
Does anyone remember when businesses would operate their websites only during business hours and then take most of the functionality offline after hours?
I'm possibly also mis-remembering my early internet years and just talking shit.
This is sometimes still a thing. I know of at least one religious news organisation that takes the website offline on Sundays.
B&H Photo will not process your order on the Jewish day of rest, it's amazing. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/httwww.bhphotovideo.com/find/SHcalendar.jsp
New York State's civil service pension/retirement system is still like this. Including holidays.
we did have those with BBSes for sure
There are solutions like IPFS for decentralized content hosting so downtime of a primary resource is less important.
Barcelona pff… now do it in Oslo! 🤣
Still possible with big enough battery and solar panel
Or maybe another form of renewable energy?
Of course, it depends on the website. I'd be unhappy if my banking site went down for more than a day.
ihavenotv.com could go down for weeks, and I wouldn't fret it.
I rent a server instead of hosting at home. But it includes a XMPP server. That down would be more problematic to me.
