    Approximately three hours ago, the server hardlocked and in the the process took out GRUB, the Linux bootloader, which took a while to fix. After that it took an hour for Linux to check the filesystem. I ran a burnin test after that to determine if it was a memory error which brought down the system. Everything should be running optimally now.

    I had about four/five people come up to me on MSN or steam and demand to know if DLP was down for me or if it was just them. Panic much? :)

    I'm almost tempted to post my conversation with Irene here, about this.

    Also, Shezza, how many people from DLP do you have on MSN.

    Well....there's you, Jon, Nuhuh, Vash, Sree, Inquisition, Anya, Amerision and Anna. Then I have Steam, which pretty much has the DLP clan on it- KrzaQ and the like.

    I am a vastly popular person :)

    Screw MSN, Meebo lets you use all of the IM services at the same time.

    And it uses those services as a basis, so you need an account from an underlying service, i.e. MSN.

    Not only what world said, but third party clients allow you to use all the IM services at once as well, you retard.
