chrissx Media

To focus our development efforts, we have archived the chrissx/ludwig Docker image on 2026-03-27. A detailed migration guide has been added to its README.

For internal reasons, including but not limited to cleaning and battery replacement, we have performed maintenance at our site in Rosenhof. On 2026-02-15, all services hosted there (i.e. Email, Mumble and BUcKET) were unavailable between 22:00 and 22:35 (10:xx PM) UTC (23:00-23:35 CET). We expected this to take less time than it did, learnings have been made.

The following subdomains have not been used in years:

• ftp.chrissx.de
• get.cpm.chrissx.de
• mc.chrissx.de
• pad.chrissx.de
• penis.chrissx.de

Their DNS entries were removed on 2026-02-11.

We have migrated all services previously running on our Nuremberg-based server sophia, which includes most of what we operate, to the new server ruby. We’re going to great lengths to make this switchover as smooth as possible, but there might be short periods of downtime or other disruptions, such as unexpected errors. Most of the migration has taken place on 2026-01-26 between 3:00 and 4:00 (AM) UTC (4:00-5:00 CET). A detailed timeline can be found below.

The following list of chrissx Media websites and services are affected:

• chrissx.de
• fuxgames.com
• kinkcheck.top / bottom.kinkcheck.top
• fonts.chrissx.de
• lyrics.chrissx.de
• screwed.chrissx.de
• meme.chrissx.de
• erwin (please read the warning below) / erwin.chrissx.de
• gock.dev / pixel.chrissx.de
• elonisnwichser.de

Additionally, the following third party websites hosted by us are also affected:

• zerm.eu / zerm.link
• emilycatgirl.de

On 2026-02-22, sophia was taken offline permanently. Please note that after this has taken place, no services will be available at sophia.chrissx.de (or its associated IP addresses) anymore. Specifically, make sure that if you use erwin, the correct URL is not http://sophia.chrissx.de:8080/, but http://erwin.chrissx.de:8080/ or https://erwin.chrissx.de/.

Detailed Timeline

We will carefully monitor for breakage after each step. All times are 24-hour UTC.

• (2026-01-25) ruby setup, incl. complete testing
• (2026-01-26 3:00) DNS switchover of underutilized domains: chrisxeric.de, cpm.chrissx.de, elonisnwichser.de, media.chrissx.de, wiki.chrissx.de
• (2026-01-26 3:15) DNS switchover of erwin.chrissx.de
• (2026-01-26 3:20) DNS switchover of lyrics.chrissx.de, meme.chrissx.de, screwed.chrissx.de
• (2026-01-26 3:30) DNS switchover of zerm.link, bottom.kinkcheck.top, emilycatgirl.de
• (2026-01-26 3:40) DNS switchover of all remaining domains
• sophia traffic decreases to an insignificant amount
• (2026-01-29) Significant reduction of sophia’s nginx configuration
• (2026-02-21) Migration of Discord bots
• (2026-02-22) Final Shutdown of sophia
• (2026-02-23) A very cheesy farewell

It has not been decided yet when the IP addresses assigned to sophia will be given away. We will hold onto them until at least 2026-03-15 to mitigate any confusion arising from their reuse by a third party.

Semi-Live Updates

Times are given in 24-hour CET, unless noted otherwise.

• (2026-01-27 12:00) Yesterday sophia already saw a >80% reduction in traffic, despite the 4 hours before the migration. Today we’re seeing <5% of usual traffic, which is mostly bots, so everything can be shut down in the coming days.
• (2026-01-26 07:50) The issues have been resolved. zerm.eu has been switched over and verified.
• (2026-01-26 05:02) successful switchover and verification completed: chrissx.de, fonts.chrissx.de, gock.dev. The main part of the migration is done and this notice will be significantly reworked soon.
• (2026-01-26 05:00) zerm.eu has been rolled back to sophia because of broken Content-Type headers. This will be fixed soon
• (2026-01-26 04:52) successful switchover and verification completed: fuxgames.com, qa.chrissx.de, porn.chrissx.de, pixel.chrissx.de, new.chrissx.de
• (2026-01-26 04:43) successful switchover and verification completed: bottom.kinkcheck.top, kinkcheck.top
• (2026-01-26 04:36) successful switchover and verification completed: zerm.link
• (2026-01-26 04:30) switchover and verification completed: emilycatgirl.de. Chromium shows a security warning that we will investigate later (possible rollback)
• (2026-01-26 04:25) successful switchover and verification completed: lyrics.chrissx.de, meme.chrissx.de, screwed.chrissx.de

• (2026-01-26 03:59) chrisxeric.de has been fully verified to work while accessing it through ruby (a test image is not available, which is expected)

• (2026-01-26 03:50) Coffee has been made, we are ready.

• (2026-01-25 12:15) All services are up-and-running. Testing will be conducted later today.
• (2026-01-25 10:45) After 4 test installations, we have arrived at a concise and stable setup. The new server ruby, located in Falkenstein, will be set up during the next few hours.

The following websites have not been updated for five years, are partially broken and don’t serve any material purpose anymore:

• old.chrissx.de
• ampless.chrissx.de
• amplus.chrissx.de

To optimize our deployment processes going forward and reduce unnecessary resource consumption, these websites and their corresponding DNS entries have been removed on 2026-01-25. The code will remain available in the form of public archives on GitHub.

For the same reasons, as well as focusing our development efforts, the tech demo that we call our Gopher site was taken down on 2026-01-25. The archive will also remain public on GitHub.
