At some point tomorrow, the samizdata server is going to be rebooted whilst various arcane rituals are preformed and the hamsters that make it all spin are fed and rested. So if Samizdata is off-line for a while, that is why.

Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

As long as you don’t switch to a commenting platform like Disqus, or bloat the blog with that “social” networking stuff that’s really quite antisocial in the way it hogs memory, I’ll be happy.
No, Disqus is the devil’s snot. The system we have now is just fine.
I hope it is hamsters behind this site and not gerbils with their pestilent fleas.
Oh, it’s definitely hamsters. Hamsters of the highest, most delicious quality.
Damn it Michael, that was a secret! The official Samizdata line is that we were going to ‘rest and feed’ the hard working hamsters!
We serve our hamsters, yes.
Arcane rituals will be “preformed”? Really? How does that work?
You want gerbils, not hamsters.
This is a true story…
My office-mate S once brought her gerbil round to my gaff to see how it would get on with my flatmate’s hamster (they were out). The gerbil (female) mounted and attempted to embuggerate the (male) hamster.
We were very drunk but it was all in the name of science.
At least that is what I’m saying when they feel my collar.
Thanks Perry. At least you warn us all in advance that you will be offline, unlike ours which swans off into the Ether for weeks on end without a bye your leave. 😉

Laird: Yes, we are all preverts here.
Indeed, Mr. de H, the system we now have is excellent (save only the lack of Search, for which I blame WP). You guys done great. :>))
By the way, I can only express the greatest gratitude for this:
Laird: Yes, we are all preverts here.
It’s one of those irregular verbs:
What I like to do is kinky
What you like to do is a fetish
What he likes to do is a perversion.
