:(
Got a call yesterday first thing in the morning, found out that my dad passed away overnight at the age of 81.
Last couple of days have been a whirlwind. I'm really looking forward to going back to work tomorrow.
Ya, sorry to hear about that. Wishes go out to you and your family.
Going back to work today was also comforting. Normalcy at a time like this is good.
Its all going down soon.. Winter is coming.

Is the best search engine service ever down?
It was down for a day or two last week when I messed up a DNS change. It's currently up. If you find otherwise let me know.
Didn't realize you worked for Amazon.

Still down for me. I have been using Duckduckgo for the time being but it is awful compared to the Citadel search engine.
Fun fact, I actually have a search site on my own whose name translates to "HorseHorseGo", but it is for internal use only and I can't use it from the Tor network heh.
Well that was neat, not seen this in a while.
I logged in. Saw several rooms were orange. Went into one room to do a post ( ok, a rant ) with intent to look at the others afterward. Go back to the room list, they all were marked as read.

I did see some errors, I think we might be hitting some rate limits on
the upstream search engines. Certainly not from us using it, so I
wonder who's actually hitting (and probably spamming) it.
It is working for me *right now*. It certainly didn't feel like upstream ratelimit to me.
Not that it means a damned thing, but i tried it on TOR this morning just to see... Wondering if it might be regional. But it worked.
Surprisingly the out-port was in a Russian province. I was NOT expecting that at all. Figured that would be a dangerous thing to do there. Using, sure, i can see that happening a lot, but not being an out-port.

- Country: Russian Federation
Thu Oct 30 2025 09:46:44 UTC from darknetuserWhat I am getting is "The connection has timed out" from my web browser, so it certainly does not look like an upstream issue.
Wow. didn't expect to see you again..
