I loved the DOS prompt and batch files back in the 80s. It made me look like a hacking god at work, even though I was typing in simple stuff.I still remember the odd DOS prompt, and they still work. It beats searching for "print" in random different programs.
I'm not computer savvy, much, but nowadays I amaze younger people who can't find the menu dropdown and I simply pop in the commands and voilà.I loved the DOS prompt and batch files back in the 80s. It made me look like a hacking god at work, even though I was typing in simple stuff.
I was wondering if some of the server hamsters have got time off for Christmas.Yes. It’s been like this for me for a couple of days now.
There’s a thread on this.

Anyone else finding the site really slow when loading today?
Have you tried feeding the hamsters on the wheel more food?I'd expected this to have corrected itself by now.
I'm going to press a button and take a ticket at the technical support counter.
Maybe the hamsters have overdone it on the food department and that’s why they are slow.Have you tried feeding the hamsters on the wheel more food?
Seriously though, it's not as if the forum has gone down. It still works, albeit slower.
I thought pietro mercurious was our tech bod, or is that a case of the mandela effect, because I see he's retired from here now.
That sounds very much like me.You are not only wrong but very, very out-of-date.
I looked at the list of mods the other week and there was a fifth guy there below THE FOUR.You are not only wrong but very, very out-of-date.

I assure you, Windows 10 and 11 PCs still crash. They mostly handle it a lot better than DOS ever did. Mostly.People nowadays don't know what it means to have a computer crash.
They are on annual leave after the Christmas rush ... they had to fill in for the elves who were on strike so they are a bit grumpy.Has anyone tried asking the Pixies to fix it?
Running normally again for me at time of postingOdd because the site is still slow to load. It is painfully slow for me today. Hopefully something can be found out and fixed.
So do we know what the problem was?
