  1. When I saw the title I thought there was a rule called Osprey's Rule. That fish looks like a small dolphin or something! Crazy.
  2. So I recorded a thing on my violin. It's pretty okay. Not the best mic quality. Here it is. c: I hope everyone's having a good Friday!
  3. Looks like the /tmp partition was full, thanks to an error SW sent me I was able to clear some space. I believe that should fix most problems, assuming they were all due to that.
  4. I defer to the old Roman quote "I do not see it, therefore it does not exist." It looks like a pretty benign notification related to the forum software, SW is more familiar with that so I don't want to go poking around without his permission. It shouldn't keep you from browsing the site, at least from the info you shared.
  5. Hey guys, Sorry, I didn't realize that the 'Show advanced' doesn't actually show the information like in my screenshot. You have to click the red 'Not Secure' up next to the URL, and then click 'Certificate' to get the pop-up box which is what I need. You can then press alt+print screen to capture just the content of that window so it looks like this: However, I just got the error myself so these screenshots are no longer needed (I'll welcome them if you still want to post them though, just in case I might get any additional info) @Square WheelsThis does not appear to be due to the same issue that happened last time. Looking into the possible cause now
  6. Lol, I thought it was funny. But anyone else who runs into this might not know as much about browser security warnings, so I wanted to shed some light on their relative harmlessness. Ironically, as I was submitting this reply, I got the error. I just received the info I needed so hopefully I can track down the cause.
  7. The chances of this ever actually being dangerous, no matter what any browser says, are very very small. Unless you are actively sending your credit card information or something like that while you see this warning, or if you purchase things on a site that shows this warning, there is nothing that can be stolen by a malicious third party. Except maybe the contents of your post. Which is... something we all can see. lol Also, clicking the lock icon / 'Not Secure' thing next to the URL only pulls up more details about the error, it does not push through to the site. It is very safe. No traps here.
  8. To anyone who gets this in the future: The next time you see this error, please click 'more details', or if you're on Chrome click the lock icon next to the URL and then click 'Certificate (Valid)' and show me the screenshot from there. That should help me to narrow down the problem, in the unlikely event that the cause is the same as last time. Your screenshot should look something like this (don't know if it's possible to find this on Mobile):
  9. Thank you everyone! You all are an amazing group of people.
  10. I like how your bus has six wheels.
  11. This trend is one I am happy to be a part of.
  12. That's a lot of 'if's! Also, I'm still in the basement, so... this must be another trick. EDIT: I'm keeping this post as a coupon next time there's downtime.
  13. Oops, I accidentally edited my profile picture to that. It should ACTUALLY be faster, but I welcome any imaginary speed as well. lol.
  14. Yeah, the site's performance on average is really the key metric, I'm realizing. Thanks for your kind words, SW definitely puts in a lot of his time toward trying to keep things smooth. I'm just happy to be able to help.
  15. Hey Everyone, Just finished some upgrades on the server in the hopes of speeding it up a bit. Does the site seem faster to any of you? Answers involving the placebo effect are welcomed.
  16. Cinnamon raisin toast is amazing, though. Sorry Kzoo.
  17. Yeah who could imagine having a giant D as an avatar?!
  18. I say we revolt against RG and BRING BACK THE LETTERS! Just choose 'Remove My Profile Picture' in the settings to get a cool random-hue letter. This isn't a ploy to improve website speed by loading less images, that would be ridiculous.
  19. I'm noticing that! There's random categories of food gone from all the stores at once, it seems like. At one point it was flour, and the lastest is sodas and diet sodas specifically. I wonder if it's just hiccups in supply lines. Also, congrats.
  20. I'm totally going to "Umm, ACTUALLY" you just because I don't know much but I'm in love with history and the Greco-Roman world. The word 'zephyr' actually comes from 'Zephyros', the Greek god of the west wind, which was considered the gentlest wind. The warm west wind brought the spring season. Even today the name of the god means a warm and light breeze, which is cool. Er... warm. As for RedFacedWalrus, I think I was given the name by Page or Wilbur or RG. Can't believe it was five years ago. I'd like to think I'm a walrus at heart, though, despite being 5' 6'' and 125lbs. I need to exercise more, and then I'll be red-faced. We'll pretend that's where it came from! EDIT: I was curious so I looked back on my first post: I guess I made it up, I have no idea where it came from. I just changed it away from Danielle2. Dang, that's disappointing. But look at all those classic names posting on my welcome post!
