It was a collection of silly quotes from IRC channels everywhere, many of which dated back to the 90s. It was rarely ever updated in the 2010s, but now, the URL no longer resolves.

Last capture was July 2023. https://web.archive.org/web/20230601000000*/bash.org

EDIT Someone archived all the quotes on the Internet Archive.

It vanished 7 years ago and came back. It's possible they forgot to renew.

First week of the new year. This seems likely.

Probably is exactly what happened here. The FreeCAD wiki went down on the 1st too, thankfully they have it mirrored to a GitHub repo so that ended up not being a major issue

Oh shit… be right back.

Domains seldom expire on the new year, they are typically registered for a number of years with the proof starting on the day you register

So register today, it expires yesterday + 10 years

They went down in August too. Maybe they just need better help keeping things running
