Aight so we tried to switch to Spectrum from AT&T. Internet was slow but reliable on ATT. Weāve been with spectrum for 3 weeks and have on/off/no signal constantly.
The third tech should be here in the hour. I already told them if this doesnāt fix it we are cancelling. Unbelieveable.

Is that DPās Cbg Force photo?
Iāll be interested in your post-cure thoughts. I have the Auto version to run this autumn.
From what I read at GTR, CBG trichomes are not sticky and fall off easily so care needs to be taken from harvest on.
At least it makes for easy sifting, which is my plan for most of it.

Ugh man, yeah. ATT only offers 1gb service but spectrum says they have a 2gb speed so we decided to try it. So far itās been a disaster.
I did realize the ATT fiber has an old CAT5 cable running to the router. If we go back Ill upgrade to a new CAT8 and see if that helps. Iāve got short CAT8 ethernets on the way to connect all the new stuff anyway.

lol I have spectrum and I love it. Can count all the outages Iāve had with it on one hand in about 3 years now. And cheap too; paying like $54 (that includes tax) for the 1 gig fiber plan.

Good morfnoevight fellow stoners. 
It makes sense that both sets of files are needed but not that it times out. That to me would indicate that the DB needs repairs, orphaned pointers bad data flagged. It is routine stuff for a DBA in my day, it is out there in some physical space somewhere and that is most likely what needs sorting 
None of which helps you because you lack leverage. I though you had a back-up?
Have you thought about web crawl scraping the whole site? I donāt know how it works but pretty sure a hacker can do it.

Oh there are backups, but itās the database + attachments. 1.3 TB.
Thatās a hefty file to download/upload.

For awhile, it was the backup process that was actually taking down the site

I have used the old forum a few times since the move to look up stuff, like the lineage of Anvil (thanks @BCBudLady).
The old site doesnāt need much bandwidth, mostly just the storage space. I had a site where day traders could post charts, and the storage got so massive that the host shut me down for using too much of the āunlimited disk storage.ā

Iām not sure if it would even be cheaper self hosting it versus just keeping the cloud hosting for it. Itās $200/month. I can stop the auto-updates for it so it shouldnāt break much for add-ons (and Iāve disabled several already since several were dependent on there actually being active members.)

I just got my Vivosun C08 AC. Iām working on the installation. It uses 3 pipes. Two are to the tent (cool air in and return air out). The other circuit draws in basement air and has a pipe to vent the hot air outdoors.

I fired Spectrum about 6 months ago. Theyāre so dishonest and a den of thieves. I think their support people work on commission, so when you call for help their main focus is trying to trick you into signing up for something āfreeā thatās not free at all. Iāve been satisfied with T-mobile 5g home Internet. After I switched to T-mo Spectrum billed me for 2 months i didnāt use. Iāll never pay that, so they sold the account to a collection agency. Fuckāem.
