There is something seriously wrong here. The codebase has not been updated. The site goes down for days without explanation. No sign of our one and only admin. @Atko comes in to save the day? Wtf?
I've waited a week. So, if @puttitout does not post an explanation by tomorrow, along with an updated canary notice I'm gone.
If you want any of my subs, please post here. First come first served. Regardless of Putt's actions...
Adios bitchachos!
Edit: All subs have been claimed and owner requests sent. No, nobody can have /v/chmod.
Edit 2: I got a response from Putt which is so fucking far out of character for him I recommend everyone run. So long!
Edit 3: Banned

Ive been here a little while so I feel stupid for asking but what is a canary? I am aware that is a type of bird and I am aware of the term "canary in the coalmine", so I have a couple guesses as to what it could be but idk. If someone could please enlighten me I promise I will raise your karma.

Th canary here is an old announcement submission that is edited to show that the canary is alive. It hasn't been edited for 4 months now. Someone may come along to correct me or spin one way or another but those are the raw facts.

The theory is that with a canary; an NDA or gag order can prevent you from telling us weve been had, but they cant force you to tell us we havnt been had, so the canary is wrote during a time we are sailing clear, and every time it is edited and updated we can assume we are still good, if it doesnt get updated, and the longer it goes un updated, the more likely it is that some sort of gag order has been applied, making the canary out of date and dead.
But that all assumes they wouldnt just come in and pretend to be Putt, and update the canary. I dont give a shit about the canary because i think the idea is naive and relies on the corrupt to behave within the rules they have made clear are just for us, not them
