My trusty #FreeBSD home server just crashed, for the second time this year. For (*sigh*) reasons, it boots off a microSD card, and I suspect it is beginning to fail.
Being on a *very* tight budget, I seriously hope the SD card survives into May, so I can buy a replacement, copy the contents from the old card and keep my server alive.

And as if to mock me cruelly, it crashed again. As there is nothing more I can do today, I disconnected the power chord, let it sit for a bit, got my vacuum cleaner to remove the terrifying amount of dust that has found its way into the machine's innards. Removed the SD card, blew on it vigorously, put it back in. PLEASE don't give up the ghost just yet!
