Maybe I missed a memo, but the site isn’t working for me (Error 500). Is this a known issue, did somebody break something, or am I the only one having this issue?
@shawn There we go. I went into panic mode too soon I see. Also, I had you tagged in this too, but the post crapped out while submitting (on my end) and I missed you in the repost. Thanks for the quick follow up!

The forums are there.
Brief outage while we made some upgrades.

@shawn “Upgrades”? We don’t need no steenkin upgrades.

What is mediocre’s scheduled maintenance window?
@medz only non-mediocre sites have scheduled maintenance windows.
@medz
Correlary:
@mike808 Uhhg…people who SSH into their production server and run “nano index.php” (and it’s always PHP with those types).
@mike808 yup. “Push it to Prod”
I checked status.mediocre.com to see if it existed… it did, but had an invalid certificate with an HSTS header (don’t do that).
Clearly we need an up-to-the-second status page for such an important, high-traffic service such as meh.com.
@awk Why does the site have a cert from *.statuspage.io (and it’s a wildcard at that). SAN certs, puhleaze.
@mike808 I think @shawn has a post-it somewhere with “finish status page” scribbled on it.
They are just getting ready for their sale to walmart, nothing to worry about.
@thismyusername the rumor around here is that we’re planning on buying Walmart to add to our local pickup capabilities
/giphy shhh, it’s a secret
@thismyusername I call BS on the walmart rumor. Way too classy an outfit to be interested in a underwhemingly mediocre webstore like Meh.com.
Now, Aldi’s, on the other hand, would be a mind-meld of dreams for Meh.
@mike808 they are too busy cranking out trader joes locations and raising property values right now. maybe in 10 years or so
@mike808 I think it’s just Aldi. No ‘s’.
@mike808
If I were Meh, I would purchase Dollar General or Dollar Tree. Smaller upfront $ stake I would guess.
OTOH perhaps if you purchase Walmart, you get Arkansas thrown in as a Bonus Item.
@f00l Don’t forget the 4 house members and 2 senators you get for free.
@mike808 oh they’re not free. You can’t easily imagine the types of parties you have to throw for them.

@medz it should be when possessive, as in “The owner of Aldi”, right?
@tightwad sure. Something like, “Aldi’s carts require quarters.”
@f00l

@mike808
Ah would agree that they are not free. But ah don’t think they cost much by the standards of Wallyworld.
Besides. 2 Senators.
Plus only 4 house members?
Pitiful.

@medz I learn something new every day that i read crap here.

Oh no!
@Ignorant it’s back up, that was close.
@Ignorant Good, because I seriously need a box of ten dollar beauty masks made from diamonds.
@sammydog01
“Diamond beauty masks” might be asking for too much.
If need be, I’ll settle for $10 “diamond ugly masks”.
@f00l I’m already ugly enough- don’t need help there.
