Oops how will lots of insecure people cope?
Will Putin care to comment?
? Broken as in Broken society or Broken as in doesn't work?
Twitter is fine as is Discord.
Call in the army.
I'm going to start prinitng out memes so i can swap them for diesel 🧐
At least now the rest of the world will understand what being on STW is like.
This is my social media, it too has been a bit broken.
I know nothing about IT, but appears a bit odd that someone can pull the power cord out from one computer and it takes down so many platforms?
Eggs in one basket springs to mind ?
I only know about this because you told me (on social media).
Jeesus @Mark. Whatever you did to fix STW, you've broken everything else!

If it's a DNS problem then it's not "one computer"

still get 502 bad gateway so not fixed
You’re not wrong.

Arrrgggghhhhh just got an error message on here 'error communicating with origin' never seen that one before.
Error communicating with origin
I don’t Adam and Eve it
Working ok in central manchester near the town hall, good neighbours nearby doing their stuff probably
My wife was complaining her phone was broken.
Turns out Facebook / Insta are down.
I thought there would be more of an outcry but there's been nothing on social media.
You thought people got silly when they thought there was no fuel...

Go knock on their door and tell them to stop dicking about

*just updating my status here until I can do it as normal to all my real virtual friends.
Facebook market place is down. Don't use anything else to know!
WhatsApp down too, which actually is a bit annoying. Old school txts it is then...
I just tried to log in to MySpace for old times sake. Didn't work.
Here has been a bit borked for a few days (years?) now 🤨
Not only is social media down, my Vodafone broadband has died.
This might be the beginning of the end of the world.
*Likes kayak23's status*
Is it that solar storm the meeja was on about? They did say we wouldn't be able to cope.....
It's the end, my vodafone broadband is gone too (and I'm in Ireland). Also get my TV from Vodafone so no TV either. Might just have to read a book (assuming my Kindle is working).
Better be back for the zwift race tomorrow or I won't be able to get any exercise 🙂
Just been speaking to my wife as social media is down.
She seems nice.
Ironically as someone who has remarkably few problems with STW, ever.... it's now acting up!
It's the only SM I use or care about too.
Whaaaggghhh!😭
WhatsApp down too, which actually is a bit annoying. Old school txts it is then…
Signal / telegram

Don't worry, you can still be a sanctimonious prick on here.
🙂
Touché
The whistleblower is giving evidence tomorrow...might be down to get a final purge to remove the dodgy stuff that can be found...
If a conspiracy theory was needing to be spun...

I'm sure the army will be able to sort it out.
Ahahahhaha! (yeah I know it’s probably bollocks but fun to imagine!)

No FB, no WhatsApp and no Instagram . . . users worldwide apparently.
Conversation with my 13 yo daughter:
WhatsApp won’t load. Which is bad bc I need it.
me: it’s down. So is insta and fb. Read the news.
Christ on a bike. I thought my phone was broken. That’s so weird.
me: tech breaks. Welcome to reality
So yours isn’t working either?
me: no one in the whole world’s is working
…
Which makes me think that come the apocalypse us over 40s are going to be the only ones that can remember how to actually do anything.
Should I stock up on tinned goods? #armygeddions
Not just a facebook problem. Energy crisis, fuel crisis, pandemic, now this! It’s like the end of times.

I know bugger all about the tech involved but from reading Twitter it suggests a large chunk of Facebook has been "permanently" deleted???
System definitely down.
Plenty of non social stuff uses Whatsapp. British Gas uses it as their support chat for their PAYG customers. In most of South America, it’s the default text platform.
This is serious. My bedtime routine is usually reading whether anyone's bins have been missed, asking if virgin broadband is down or posts trying to reunite a bank card with their rightful owner.
Guess I'll have to make some calls instead.

Facebook HQ:

On the other hand, my wife got to Morrisons just after the petrol tanker arrived - it was deserted, probably because this hadn't been broadcast on the local Facebook group.
And the world starts turning again…
Boo! The DNS is back up. I was beginning to imagine a future without local community facebook groups.
Phew! Antivaxers everywhere can 'dO tHeIr oWN ReSErch' again.

YouTube wasn’t affected was it?
Apparently whatever they broke took out the ability for their techs to remotely connect and fix it (I’ve been there myself not so long ago - it’s not a good day at the office!) with the added bonus that the staff also could t access their offices as their spades all use the network to check this ID!
As the entire world imploded and was remade while I was asleep I didn't notice. Does this mean I have been rebooted?
Based on my lad's experience of starting uni at the weekend, I suspect that the overload of new WhatsApp groups for accommodation, subject, uni, college and a million official and unofficial societies just caused it to explode
No FB, no WhatsApp and no Instagram . . . users worldwide apparently.
How will the Influencers have survived?!
Is anyone else a bit disappointed that it is working again today?
WhatApp being down was a bit of a pain but a world without FB and Insta is no bad thing.
Anything to lessen the screentime!
a world without FB and Insta is no bad thing.
Yeah.... they should have left it broken.
November 17th, 2178 - "On October 4th, 2021, increased productivity, vaccination rates, global economy indicators, and overall worldwide happiness indicators showed a sharp upwards spike for several hours. IQ scores globally doubled in all tests, while aggression levels subsided across the board. To scholars in the 22nd century, unfortunately, the cause of this has been lost to time."
My main observation was that JnrV was barely impacted, her and her mates live on Snapchat and barely touch Facebook products. It'll be interesting to see if FB are able to lure in her generation.
Didn't impact at all. I'm part of several What's App groups (one for our street is particularly inane) that went blissfully quiet don't use FB at all, and I didn't scroll aimlessly through Insta while making a cup of tea...
Mleh.

Says an insecure person on Social Media.... 😀

Yeah /S instead of /r sucks.
Which makes me think that come the apocalypse us over 40s are going to be the only ones that can remember how to actually do anything.
Reminds me of the aftermath from the London Tube bombing. Loads of blokes in suits having to walk like five minutes to work and being utterly bamboozled.
Well that's a bit random, but OK.

Making ignorant assumptions about just how capable younger people actually are, is why you'd end up as their food....
how capable younger people actually are
Age and low cunning, trumps youth and exuberance every time.

I don't think bridges has a sense of humour.....
Oh I do. I'm pissing myself laughing at you.
That's, AT you, not WITH you... 😉
Age and low cunning, trumps youth and exuberance every time.
Hmm. Assuming yourself to be cleverer than youth, is truly folly. NEVER underestimate your opponent. That is why you also will be eaten. 😀
Social Media broken
Must be some good stuff in those Pandora Papers....
This'll just be the real 'leaders' reminding everyone else who is really in charge now.
