Now completed.

And today the Kremlin managed to crash its own site temporarily, while launching a clumsy attack against Twitter!

Our servers are located in Amsterdam. Therefore, the Kremlin will not be able to reach us with its bloody paw. Even if he uses his entire stock of "Novichok", which he keeps in the basements of Lubyanka Square.
But, no politics ;-)

Do you mean "announcement" or "atonement"?

Do you mean "announcement" or "atonement"?

I assumed “announement” was a reference to Chaucer’s “The Miller’s Tale”:

“Go up," quod he unto his knave anoon , " Clepe at his dore, or knokke with a stoon”

The postimages.org site (which hosts all the gifs I share here) is down. Wonder if it's related to the trouble other sites are having.

The problem appears to have been solved. Yay!

Annulment or astonishment... Apologies for my sloppy typing!

I have had to bend my view on how a 'server' looks like!

The brand new CF server after the upgrade:

I don’t think we’ll have any more problems...

What could possibly go wrong?

And where are the naked slave girls who have to power this device? If they rest more often, our sever has to slow down.

Remember to never touch this button. "Oh shit, I said that, but it might make her curious about what happens next."

If you press the buttons in the right order, it deletes the internet

 

[Barbaria1]

So there was this small button to press
Curiosity overcame me I guess
Let’s give it a try
I said on the fly
If shit happens I’ll never confess

Said Barb with a flick of her hair,
“Computing’s an easy affair!
Look, on screen it’s stated
That the problem’s located
Between my own keyboard and chair.”

 

[Wragg]

No corner or message or thread
Is exempt from this malady, dread
It gets worse and worse
This limerick curse
No wonder the server was dead

 

[Barbaria1]

This limerick plague wasn’t started by me
I take pains to remind you guys with glee
They can hijack a thread
I can say with some dread
But they’re kinda fun one has to agree

Barb said “While the server’s rebooting,
I’ll prove that I’m good at computing!
I’ll scan and de-frag
Until Monty and Wragg
Stop teasing and start saluting.”
