  7. Slashdot breaks new uptime record. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Slashdot has set a new record for uptime. Having been up and running for a full TWO HOURS now, it's anybody's guess how long this will last.

    While a two hour uptime might not seem like much, except to Windows NT adminstrators, this is a new record for the Slashdot site since the disasterous software upgrade last week. Since then Slashdot has suffered countless crashes and the Slashdot community was becoming disgruntled(as if they weren't from the beginning).

    The excitement for the two hour uptime is slightly tempered by the fact that the search functions on the site STILL don't work. This however is simply a minor annoyance in light of Slashdot's new uptime milestone. CmdrTaco must be proud.

    Up your's, AC has no karma.

    • Remember to use TT tags around the links.
    • There can only be somewhere between 20 and 29 characters between the // and .com before Slashcode inserts an ellipsis in the middle and abbreviates the whole thing. I'm not sure the exact number; but I did tests with multiples of ten and it started cutting them off around 30.
    • You can only use hypens, letters, and numbers. Slash will filter everything else out, including %XX character codes. You can apparently use one period if you end the like with a country code, like .ca or .uk, but this behavior seems inconsistent, so don't count on it working.
