gollark: Also, the nginx configuration is incomprehensibly complex.
gollark: In theory osmarks.net itself can just be compiled anywhere and put on any static webserver. In practice it can't because people have come to rely on stuff I arbitrarily scp-ed into the webroot, so I have to back up that folder. And it relies on some dynamic-site logic like the comments.
gollark: In case of an osmarks.net server implosion, I can theoretically run the critical site logic on one of the spare osmarksnodeā„¢s.
gollark: Can you instantiate the backups elsewhere?
