orators, singers, musicians to come!

She will break it to you better than I can.

Saturn expelled his father, and seized his throne
|

-- I wish our opinions were the same.
|

Ere departing fade from my eyes your forests of bayonets
|

Emma soon recollected, and understood him
|

|

--'''' My dear papa, he is three-and-twenty.
|

I hope time has not made you less willing to pardon.
|

; Nay-be calm, for I am so: Does it burn?
|

She will break it to you better than I can.
|

play the part that looks back on the actor or actress!
|

She continued to look back, but in vain
|
||||
|
||||
It is necessary and beside the large sort is puff.
|

; she is living in dread of the visit.

Year of comets and meteors transient and strange

;'' remember that I am here.-- Mr.

She will break it to you better than I can.
|

; and Emma was quite in charity with him.
|
||||
|
||||
It is a mere nothing after all
|
||||
The doors of the two rooms were just opposite each other.
|
||||
She will break it to you better than I can.
|

I shall just go round by Mrs. Cole 's
|

Here is realization, Here is a man tallied
|

Even pleasure, you know, is fatiguing
|

|

Keep your raptures for Harriet 's face.
|

Ere departing fade from my eyes your forests of bayonets
|

For to one side she leans, Then back she sways
|
||||
It soon appeared that London was not the place for her.
|

Perhaps they had the figure of a winged horse on the prow
|

She will break it to you better than I can.
|

|
||||
She will break it to you better than I can.
|
||||
To conclude, I announce what comes after me.
|

; nothing delineated or distinguished.

Excelsior Who has gone farthest?
|

To girlhood, boyhood look, the teacher and the school.
|

`` How I could so long a time be fancying myself!
|

|

`` Yes, sometimes he can.'' Do you mean with regard to this letter?''

Any nonsense will serve. the flesh over and over!

Have you guess 'd you yourself would not continue?

The wanderer would not heed me

Mr. Elton looked all happiness at this proposition

One was the son of Mars, and was killed before Troy
|

He had done his duty and could return to his son.
|

I never saw any thing so outree!
|

`` He told me at parting, that he should soon write

Can not you guess what this parcel holds?''

And these things I see suddenly, what mean they?
|

And you, paid to defile the People
|

Very strongly may be sincerely fainting.
|

she cried with a most open eagerness
|

`` He told me at parting, that he should soon write
|

Let me hear from you without delay
|

By him she was put in mind of what she might do
|
||||
; but Emma 's countenance was as steady as her words.
|
||||
Dear Miss Woodhouse, do advise me.''
|

|

It was certainly ‘barbara’ in the eyes of a Greek

One can not creep upon a journey

`` He told me at parting, that he should soon write

Clarke translates ‘miseri senis ore,

: naught there is Save body, having property of touch.
|

Alas poor boy, he will never be better,
|

; but if he wished to do it, it might be done.

`` He told me at parting, that he should soon write

One was the son of Mars, and was killed before Troy

<h4>Systems status</h4>
|

<p><sub><em>Wed Oct 14 13:49:12 PDT 2015</em></sub></p>
|

<p>
|

~vilmibm released a rewrite to the server's infrastructure yesterday. Nothing should be different, but it'll be much easier to work on new features and consume fewer resources.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Currently, the <strong>guestbook</strong> is down. Usenet has also been disabled for now since no one was using it and it has a nontrivial impact on the system. If you want to talk about bringing usenet back, bring it up in irc <3.

<h4>donations! also, new disk</h4>
|

<p><sub><em>Wed Apr 29 06:04:58 UTC 2015</em></sub></p> <p>An exciting day for
|

tilde.town. We now have way to donate via <a

href="https://www.patreon.com/nathanielksmith">patreon</a>. Thanks to all the
|
||||
folx who have already become patrons! y'all make the heart of this sysadmin
|
||||
warm and fuzz. A big part of the push for donations was a need for more server
|
||||
space which we have as of tonight's server upgrade/reboot. The main tilde.town
|
||||
server now has a 40gb disk. Enjoy!</p>
|

|
||||
<p>If you signed up in the last two months or so you had a bum welcome present
|

in your /home. the script has been fixed and now everyone retroactively has a
|
||||
welcome haiku in their home directory. enjoy.</p>

<h4>server restart</h4>
|
||||
<p><sub><em>Tue Jan 27 21:13:27 UTC 2015</em></sub></p>
|
||||
<p>Hi. Today tilde.town had to restart to pick up a patch for <a
|
||||
href="http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2015/q1/276">CVE 2015-0235</a>.
|
||||
data.tilde.town (our poetry server) has also been patched and restated. Sorry
|
||||
for any inconvenience!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h4>lots of people</h4>
|
||||
<p><sub><em>Thu Jan 1 07:37:16 UTC 2015</em></sub></p>
|
||||
<p>we have ~370 users. isn't that wild?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h4>Scheduled Downtime Tonight</h4>
|
||||
<p><sub><em>Wed Nov 26 21:19:12 UTC 2014</em></sub></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To accommodate our growing user base, there will be a server resize/reboot
|
||||
tonight (Pacific time). Sadly I cannot give an exact time as I still don't have
|
||||
internet at my new place and will have to opportunistically find some to
|
||||
execute this upgrade.</p>
|
||||
<p>The server should only be down for a few minutes, but this will terminate
|
||||
any running applications (like tmux/screen/irssi). Any files open in an editor
|
||||
should be preserved by a swap file but you still may want to save and close
|
||||
things in the next several hours.</p>
|
||||
<p>Also, this upgrade means that tilde.town is no longer an essentially free
|
||||
project, so I may put up something for donations soon.</p>
|
||||

<h4>100+ users party report</h4>

<h4>80 users!</h4>
|
||||
<p><sub><em>Wed Oct 29 18:19:45 UTC 2014</em></sub></em>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>tilde.town just added its 80th user. Welcome! Some folks have been having
|
||||
trouble with ssh public keys. Remember, public keys are really confusing if you
|
||||
aren't too familiar with them, and there is no judgement if you can't
|
||||
immediately get them to work. Feel free to tweet at <a
|
||||
href="https://twitter.com/tildetown">@tildetown</a> or send an email to <a
|
||||
href="mailto:nks@lambdaphil.es">~vilmibm</a> if you'd like some help.</p>

<h4>60 users</h4>
|
||||
<p><sub><em>Sat Oct 25 19:37:47 UTC 2014</em></sub></em>
|
||||
<p>tilde.town is up to 60 users. This is lovely! It is also only a tenth of our
|
||||
planned total user capacity, so if you are interested in a tilde* account we'd
|
||||
love to have you. You can even submit a user request with a fancy form now!</p>
|
||||

||||

<h4>Change of IP, warnings when you ssh</h4>
|
||||
<p><sub><em>Sun Oct 19 03:28:59 UTC 2014</em></sub></p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In the interest of making sure we don't suddenly disappear from the Internet
|
||||
as a result of a dynamic IP change on AWS I switched to using an Elastic
|
||||
IP (amusingly, "elastic" IPs are static).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The upside is that we now have a static IP (also it's free) (woo).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The downside is that when you try to SSH into tilde.town, now, you'll get an
|
||||
error about "something nasty" and there will be many @ characters. You'll want
|
||||
to edit your .ssh/known_hosts file and remove the entry for tilde.town (your
|
||||
error message should have a cute copy-pasta-able one-liner for doing this for
|
||||
you).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Go ahead and do that, and then log in With Confidence. Hopefully this won't happen again.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
I'll close by mentioning the imminent arrival of many new tildeverse members. We (the tildeverse operators) are just about ready to accept the signups currently languishing in a waitlist. This means lots of new users, which is lovely, but may mean some growing pains while I adapt our server to the new user load in the most cost-effective way.
