I had trouble loading it about a half an hour ago, for at least 5 or ten minutes.
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I got 404'd, too. Had to open a new window to get access again.

Mine cleared up after about five minutes, and the board's all zippy again now.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Oooh! I just noticed that the thread adminstration page now lists the thread number. Were about to add our 79th thread.

For a "no rush" sort of a question, I've grown curious about the links to other b.org posts...
If you just copy and paste the link from your browser's address box, does the board generate the link text on its own? You know, that whole "[JohnQPoster] 'Appropriate Thread Name' date/time stamp" format that I always see?
Or is everybody on the board just spectacularly anal in that one regard?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yes.

C'mon now. Anal? Here?

I knew if I waited long enough, somebody else would ask that question. Thanks sean and ita.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Anyone see the notice at livejournal.com on how the are handling their database issues?
I hope you're all enjoying the speed of the site today and yesterday. We're continuing converting all popular and intensive database queries into using our memcached system instead. We're not done, though... we have one last query to convert, and then most of our 20 million+ page views per day won't even hit the databases. Because the databases are generally the limiting factor, involving slow moving parts, removing our dependence on them keeps making the site faster.

Yes, it was very fast. It quite snappily brought you to a random page in a random journal, rather than the page you really wanted.
