Site Downtime
« on: Tue, 20 August 2013, 22:31:33 »
There will be a brief downtime later tonight while I upgrade the forum software.  It should only last for a few minutes.

WOHA...sorry that took so long.  My test only took a few minutes, but it took about an hour on the production server.  Also, apologies for that misleading downtime message about restoring backup databases.  That was nonsense.  No rollbacks happened.  No data was lost.

Thanks!

Hope everything went well!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Well the upgrade finished 3 minutes before you posted that, so your claim is mathematically improbable.  :)

I sent a PM a few minutes ago - went straight away.

I'm sorry rknize, i lied about it, I'm bored, and you took it away from me for so long. I might have gone a bit insane.
