Is static-rendering possible? November 12, 2001 7:57 AM Subscribe
Despite all the new RAM, at least from Europe, access is reaching 11.9 levels of difficulty. Is static-rendering possible? This time users are trusting MetaFilter more than the usual sources, as it does a great summing up job.
Er, sorry, just got on to the front page. Seems like its a problem with the server this end. Just slow, that's all. ;-(

Things were bad on November ninth? I wasn't aware. :)
If the load stays bad, I'll move to static rendering later this morning.

Seems to be working for me. I have a feeling this thread is causing some problems though.

I'm not getting a "new submission" parenthetical statement on Mefi (but it is working here on Metatalk)

Yes. But either I was not before, or it was not there before. Sorry to waste your time like that, Matt.

Hey, lotsofno, the truth is even more ridiculous. I've always written September 11 on my posts - even initiated a thread on the correct way to refer to the attacks - and today, wishing to be cool and American-like I decided, disastrously, to adopt your own style. 'Cept that, instead of 9.11, I wrote 11.9, betraying my wan attempt to be one of the crowd. And got ticked off by The Man himself too. Pathetic indeed; I agree.
P.S.
Doggone, it's The Times, you insolent whippersnapper! :-)

ahah! You heard it here first, folks -- MiguelCardoso wants to be American-like.... If even MC (that bastion of stubborn European multiculturalism) can see the light, maybe there is hope yet for those poor, as-yet unenlightened foreigners among us who still fail, despite the preponderance of evidence, to perceive the incomparable awesomeness that is America, and its flawless, unflappable (i.e., "cool") understanding of the True Nature of Things....

there's "tech stuff" near the bottom of the about page. I think there was some mention of some more RAM being added somewhere in MeTa, too, but I can't find it....
