Those of you who take the occassional dekko over at the Llama Butchers recently may have recieved, in answer to your intertoobs request, the response, “509 Bandwidth Limit Exceeded: The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later.”
Yesterday, the Mothe asked me what this meant. Well, friends, I tell you truly that I have not the remotest idea. After shrugging my shoulders in immense ignorance (albeit wastefully, given that she could not see me), I replied that my first impulse was to believe that there is some kind of general Mu.Nu meltdown.
That’s all well and good, except for the fact that Munuvian stalwarts such as Ace and Randy seem to be plowing ahead unimpeded.
Perhaps whatever the crisis may be is localized to the point that we smaller bloggers are being thrown to the wolves so that the more Important Persons may continue their sleigh ride across the steppes unimpeded. Perhaps not. I really don’t know.
In any event, there it is. Whatever the problem is, it is out of my hooves, ah, hands.

The husband thinks llama central probably got hacked. That’s usually the case when bandwidth is exceeded, or so the geek sez. Pixy moved Ace and Rusty to a different server a few years back, if memory serves, because there were so many DDOS attacks, and they kept taking the whole shebang down. Basically, they got their own well-tended playground, and we all got the shaft.
If you want Pixy to help, spoof your email so it looks like it came from Ace, so he’ll actually respond.

Heh. Somehow the idea of sock-puppeting Ace and Randy amuses me.
BTW, what IS Pixy’s email these days?

Have you noticed that they’re automatically referring your Llama link to the Jawa report?

Now I really don’t regret jumping the MuNu ship.

Perhaps this might explain something, though I don’t know what.
