It's night. Somebody has to fill a form to approve night work first.

[daneel_w]

And then fax the form to the correct authority, so that the request is Official(tm).

Well at least that doesn't require functioning DNS. This time around, it in fact could not have been an email :)

In fact it could, you just would address the IP directly instead of a hostname.

I know that people are joking, but of course we also have (extra paid) on call shifts.

And send it by post for approval, which will take 5-30 business days.

[dgellow]

Fax, actually! Will still take 5–30 business days for approval, for some reasons

[9dev]

Oh come on, that’s not true. You could also fax it. That might come with an additional processing fee though.

[rasz]

Dont be ridiculous, thats what FAX is for.

[croes]

I many days would an email take?

[skrebbel]

To a .de domain?

[croes]

Of course

[snapetom]

Luckily it's not Sunday. Everyone would be out in the country hiking.

[lschueller]

Or reading the latest prints about tax filings and how to conduct a compliance audit with pen and paper.

[thih9]

Or sweeping.

Or in Berghain
