ah, Merlin's back again.

>>34843 the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.

Downtime... ...Router... ...Reset... ...Pi... ...Server... ...Updated... ...Restart... ...Need... ...More... ...Coffee... ...42... ...Question?... ...:S...

>>34820 Yeah, it sucks :/

In some good news, I see that the Merlins-Bar https certificate updated automatically so at least that now works correctly :D

Bummer :( It must take ages to download let's say GTA5 (77GB atm).

>>34817 This is fibre (FTTC) :(
Sadly to save money they, BT, put the cabinet 2 metres in front of the the phone exchange which is a mile up the road from my house so it's very slow! Most people in the UK can get faster ADSL speeds than I can get with Fibre!!! People in cities get more choice of ISP's too so they can pay less then I do for much faster speeds!!!!! >:(

Will you get Fiber now?

I work in the morning, so no I haven't noticed it.

Had to change ISP again after some speed issues with the previous ISP so was down for a while this morning. I'm effectively back with my previous ISP, but directly this time instead of a resale product under another name. I doubt anyone noticed XD

>>34801 XD

>>34800 Yes, poor little thing is made to work very hard :/

:( Is it the Asus?

Router pooped itself again :/ This time all the LAN sockets went down, never had that before. After a reboot it still didn't work so I powered it off for a while and it's booted back up ok. Hopefully it's a one off and not a sign of failure. I don't want to buy another one of these they're expensive, £150! The newer model is £210 :S

All good :D

>>34774 Nevermind, deleted cookies, all sorted now.

That links goes to a different video than displayed, at least on my end :/

No issues here.

Oops, another little snafu updating a certificate. Should be sorted for real this time...

>>34759 No worries, it should now be automatic so won't be a problem again.

All good bro. Was watching a movie so didn't noticed anything.

Just has a little issue with renewing the https certificates which meant the site was done for a short period while I redid it manually. Should be ok now. Let me know if you notice any issues.

I see! Nicely done!

>>34750 It'll take a few minutes for the changes to filter through to all the threads...

Hopefully it's sorted now. Let me know if you find a problem.

>>34746 All the previous comments need to be rebuilt in the database before that will work. I need to create a script to do it which might take a while, but all new comments will work as expected.

why doesn't >>34714 work like >>34744 ?

>>34744 Seems good. Links in comments should now open a new window.

link test...
http://merlins-bar.com
https://merlins-bar.com

>>34737 Yes, I kept the test address for it I need it in the future.

JC, is the test.merlins-bar.com now the same as merlins-bar.com?

sure, cool & thanks!

So how about all embedded links posted in comments, except links to other comments in the thread.
I'll add it to my list of things to do :)

errrrrrrrrm, all? Well not the youtube ones as they display on the site. But pretty much any other, like this: https://imgur.com/a/amL9V

>>34710 Should be possible. Specifically which links are you referring to? Do you mean when someone embeds a link in a comment?

JC, when I click on a hyperlink it opens in the current tab. Is it possible to change the code that it opens new tab instead?

>>34686 Cheers Oldballs :)

Happy Anniversary, and thank you again for keeping this glittering gem afloat

>>34656 Nothing's changed except the updated video embedding, but if you have ideas or suggestions then let me know :)

So now that you host it yourself, are there any new rules of posting stuff?

Thanks for making it!

It is of course traditional to have cake...
