The You Game!

[PluMGMK]

< feels a bit peeved that the radio news headlines all day mentioned the 250th anniversary of Daniel O'Connell's birth but didn't breathe a word about the 80th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima

[EdgyRabbid]

< finds that absurd! < doesn't even know who that Daniel guy is!

[PluMGMK]

< says he's a very important person in Irish history but he wouldn't be well-known elsewhere. It's right and proper that he's commemorated but it doesn't make sense that they would say nothing at all about Hiroshima…

[EdgyRabbid]

< finds that absolutely absurd! < feels sorry for all the victims and survivors of the attack.

—————

< is kinda scared for the boycott < is doing for YouTube when its id update starts on the 13th. < can’t switch from most google services but < would if < could. It’s just YouTube is very near and dear to <. But < has been archiving videos left and right and putting them on the internet archive. < thinks that’s something good < has done.

[Greengoop]

< Wishes the Pirate Community a happy birthday.

[Hunchman801]

Happy 22nd birthday Pirate-Community!

< has got to go and write a birthday message now.

[PluMGMK]

< was labelling some samples in the lab with today's date and then was like wait a minute!

Happy Birthday RPC!

Apparently it's also Glen Campbell's anniversary, and Dustin Hoffman's birthday!

[EdgyRabbid]

< I am very excited about the anniversary! < wishes everyone an amazing day!

[lyndo64]

<wishes RPC a great anniversary

[Greengoop]

< Realises the forum is back but search features are unavailable.

[Hunchman801]

< apologizes for that; < suspects there was a network outage at our hosting provider that made the server completely unreachable. Search is working again too.

[Greengoop]

< Thanks ^ for fixing that!

[Hunchman801]

< did not fix the network outage, < couldn't do anything but wait for the host to solve it.
< did fix search though; < is the one who broke it last night when attempting to investigate the issue.

[Fifo]

< thought ^ self-hosted it?

[Hunchman801]

No, < rents all the infrastructure.

[Fifo]

Ah, < sees < didn’t know

[EdgyRabbid]

< didn't know that! < thought to selfhost it only needs a single computer?

[Pirez]

< is back from vacation

< wants to go back on vacation, preferably somewhere far of <'s family this time. Alas, < doesn't have any vacation days anymore, and <'s focus will not be set on acquiring an apartment and relocate before Christmas. Also Record Day.

[Hunchman801]

< thinks this is a very reasonable set of priorities in life.

[Fifo]

< thought to selfhost it only needs a single computer?

< says yes, but proper server-grade hardware would be a better choice than just any computer.
