Rep:
Site Down Time
Looks like the site was down for awhile today. I was unaware of the problem as I was at LinuxWorld. If you notice any other problems let me know ASAP. Thanks for the understanding.
well I understand, can't say I was happy about not being able to check the site all day at work but I'll forgive you . However maybe you're being a bit assuming... there's not been time for a non-understanding to start yet!
I knew Jeremy was at LinuxWorld, as everyone and their pet gerbil to do with Linux seems to have been there. I guessed that was why the site was down for a short while.

I thought it was DOSes or something because it kept loading, but never gave a response, same way slackware.com did while it was under that DDOS attack a month or so ago.
I was so worried to go to #linuxhelp and ask Acid if he knows what's going on, but i guess he was busy..

yeah all the mods were in another-room-which-shall-remain-nameless trying to contact jeremy by pager, semaphore and carrier pigeon... actually i wasn't logged in to #linuxhelp all day, that would be my home machine. when i got home someone had said my name but it had scrolled off of the screen.

actually... i was mainly worried about tricky. since finny modified that knee-cap hub to connect directly to tricky's nervous system, i thought an extended lq outtage might make him go into seizures.
...god only knows what a ddos attack would do to the guy ...

Actually fin installed an updated state-of-the-art neuro sensor which will auto switch over to the autonomic nervous system so my body doesn't rely on LQ to function normally. So I was doing fine while LQ was down but I think fin needs to do some more work, at times I had trouble with my efferent neurones, causing paradoxed illusions during the downtime, but I'm ok though.
