geekhack hacked again!?

Funniest thing I've read this week mate!

Java does eat servers! Whys Java.exe eating an entire core? Because that's what it does :)

I concur. Hahaha. :D

down..and up again
Every day at around 10am cest. So backups etc?
Reminds me of that story where a server used to fail every single day around the same time. But they just couldn't find a reason for it .
So the admins decide to camp out in the server room to see what happens as a last resort.
The time comes and the door opens, cleaning lady comes in unplugs the server plugs in the vacuum cleaner..

I think it must've gone down for 5 minutes or something; I sent a PM and got a page error when going back to the Spy, 5 minutes later I tried again and it worked fine.

Just wanted to reasure you that you weren't going insane dirge ;).

What I still lol @ is who iMav works for.

Then again, it explains a lot about why McAfee sits by and lets systems get thoroughly owned. Don't know how many machines I've reimaged due to friggin' System Fix, and MBAM actually catches and cleans it, but I'm not allowed to use that.

Now I'm not that technical but can't you screen images for viruses somehow?

Saves me all this bother of saving and reuploading.

Wait a second, lemme log out and check bullet 1.

Loads fine for me. I'm logged out and uploaded to OCN.

Pic works for me over there, not here though. Different pic I presume? Run into that a lot, quite annoying; even freshly posted stuff from after the last rollback seems to be prone to that shi.


Ya might want to tip that guy cutting up that tubing to try and use what's left by splitting it open and cutting fittingly sized pieces for in the caps, then sacrificing his holepunch for that... at least he'll have consistent cushioning (provided he makes sure they all fit inside the caps and with the same side up).

GH is not down because of me. I prefer social engineering hacks.

Probably being patched to delete all babe pics and Tapatalk/bump posts.

Why are Vb patches like Vista SP 1 patches, take FOHEVAH to load.

I got dead Reddit links as a result, hurry it up iMav or I'm asking for my $20 donation back!

Shhhhhh....

Don't give him any ideas!

I mean it's a keyboard forum. Never did figure out HOW someone could get butthurt over a keyboard forum post.

Now if I unfriended iMav at FB that would be a big deal.....

But at least there will be a roll-back. In case of a roll-back you are lucky and no poste got deleted. But is it is not that kind of thing ...
