Here is what am gonna do. Ill be keeping a log

(1/4) > >>

Bazoukas:
I wont shut down my PC (UNLESS we get a thunderstorm. I had my video card fried one time from that).

   Ill keep a log how many times Linux will go into "Please reboot me cause i feel emotional" and what programs and how many times they will crash.

  I will do ALL of my work with Linux.

  I know all of you will say good luck waiting for Linux to crash. But just a small stupid project of mine.

 So far:

11:35pm  up  4:36,  1 user,  load average: 0.11, 0.06, 0.02  

ravuya:
I shut down my Linux box every night (I have no reason to keep it on overnight), and I still haven't had a crash yet. Same with my iMac running OS X.

Master of Reality:
I had my somethin in Linux fuck up after a thunderstorm knocked out the power twice while it was running (i was stupid and turned it on after the thunderstorm just ended and then the power went out).
I leave my server runnin all the time. I in fact wait for the power to go out during a thunderstorm, then i leave it off until its over. Its a crappy old computer and i dont care that much if it gets fried (it means that i get to upgrade to OpenBSD if it fries).
I'll join you in your project.
My uptime is currently:  
12:00pm  up 3 days,  8:33,  3 users,  load average: 0.12, 0.03, 0.01

Bazoukas:
sounds like a plan  

 Ill be posting my log every week.

voidmain:
Well, you may have better luck getting it to crash than I do.  Some are better at it than others.  I'm not very good at it.  I never shut my Linux boxes off. I've got a heavily used RedHat 7.0 server that was up for almost 500 days before an extended power outage.  Now it's back up to 69 days of uptime.  Let's see, 568.9 days up, 0.1 days down on a single outage, what kind of availability percentage is that?  Actually since everything automatically failed over to a backup server at a different location there was actually zero loss in availability.
