We gots us a new server and I have cpu cycles to spare. So I'm putting that ssl link up there, so people who want to can browse the forum (more) securely.

We don't have a proper certificate so you're not really safe from a proper MITM, but hey it's better than nothing. :)

Server crashed today. No loss of data or anything, it was just gone for a while :P

I'm not entirely sure but I suspect it simply overheated because we had some fairly heavy duty stuff (non mfg related) running for a while.

Sorry about the downtime. Also, we're gonna revamp the cooling concept soonish and not run heavy stuff to avoid further unplanned downtimes --;

[size=5pt]btw don't listen to Iced when he blames ponies for the downtime. they had nothing to do with it![/size]

I finally got off my lazy ass for this thanks to everyone who kept poking me: We have [youtube] tags now. They should take pretty much any format of links as long as there's a youtube id in there:


The tag is not parsed within quotes, so you don't need to remove it when quoting others.
