I've gotten a "Cannot find server" error several times in the last hour. Once posting to Jossverse, though the post went through; once navigating Bitches; and just now posting to Book Club, and the post didn't go through.
And we live to fight another day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is anyone in touch with jengod? I just went to change the owner of buffistas.org, but we'll both need to sign some form, and I don't know how to send it to her. I guess it doesn't matter so much, since I have access to everything, as far as I know, but her name pops up, and it feels a little sketchy.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I will soon be closing down the Wisconsin house for a long while, which means that the PC that is hosting the Buffistas maps will be going offline. If you would like for me to hook the maps into the org and shift the hosting, I should have time to do it over the next week or so. Profile addy still good.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gus! You're staying in Swiss-land for the forseable future?

Signed a contract this week for a year on-site. Next week, will be moving out of the hotel into an apartment. Visas and all those hoops go pretty quickly/smoothly, when a Swiss company is the employer.
So, yeah, for a foreseeable year of future, anyway.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Perhaps we should set up a "maps" subdomain here?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Congrats, Gus, even though we'll miss your maps something awful.

amych, I think we'll be able make it so you don't have to pine for the maps.
There was some thought at one point of hooking the username from a Buffistas session, so it does not have to be sent separately. I did some refactoring after that discussion that probably needs revisiting, with that in mind. Also, the data is very different from the last archive, so here is the latest: zip
If we don't want to hook into the Buffistas identity system, that zip can just be unzipped into a directory './map' off the document root, preserving file structure. The "./map/data" subdirectory should be chmod'ed for the doc-server having 'write', as the mapping stuff writes/updates files in there.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Is there a specific Mac web browser that's required to open the archived thread files? I previously thought it was just my archaic system and software at home that was keeping me from accessing the files, but they're freezing up my work computer too.
I'm running Internet Explorer 5.2.3 (the most recent Mac version I could find) on a 1.4 GHz G4 with system 10.2.5, which theoretically should be plenty to handle any html files. Should I install Opera or Safari, or is there some tweak I can make to IE to fix this?
