We both setup servers at about the same time a few years ago and shared with each other. I’m sure once the dust settles someone will pull the he plug on his server and it’ll be offline for good.
Watching School Of Rock on his server one more time while I can.
Edit: his server is officially offline now. Rest in peace.

Instead of wiping, just encrypt and write a script to shut down if you don’t sign in within x amount of time. That way you won’t lose your data if you’re not able to sign in for some reason other than death.

This is what encryption is for without much risk of loss.
They’re used to be email lists where if you didn’t respond every few weeks or would send out to people.
I bet that led to some rough days
I was just talking about kill switching some of my servers with someone the other day
Just encrypt your drives and don’t tell anyone the password.
I wrote a little garden plot called Exit Planning which was my initial plans for how to take over after I die. The end result is a sealed folder in a file cabinet that my partner knows to look at. In there, I have a page on my servers: contact information about who to handle administration/takeover, how much it costs, and what I would like to be done with it.
I have an agreement with two of my buddies that one of them will take my server and maintain it for my family if something happens to me, and I will do the see back.
How do you prepare against it?
Even if I explain to my wife what to do, there’s no way she’ll do it. I don’t have any friend capable of running my server.
I guess that’s how everyone finds I died.
Sorry for your loss. Solid movie, though
Thanks! He was a good dude who loved music so I thought it would have been fitting.
Still in shock.
Sorry for your loss. Definitely keep some movies loaded on your server for him in case they have a plex server in the sky
My condolences. But is that something you think the family would give You since you it was a shared hobby.
Sorry for your loss
