Silence is Defeat Relocation
I just received an email from Silence is Defeat about a domain relocation, from .org to .com. It appears their .org now redirects to an eBay auction, auctioning off the domain name itself.
The email I received was as follows:
Hello <username>,
You’re receiving this email because you have the account ‘<username>’ on the SilenceIsDefeat public access unix system.
Silenceisdefeat now runs at this address:
* silenceisdefeat.com
Please note that the old address no longer works, and use the new address for mail, web, and shell access.
You can greatly assist this change by blogging about the new address, replacing any old links to SD with the new address, and even putting up a new link.
As always, you can get in touch with other silenceisdefeat users and administrators in #sd on irc.oftc.net.
Thanks!
The SD team
I thought I’d take this opportunity to spread the word about the change, as well as give a plug to silenceisdefeat. They provide a great service that has come through in a clinch for me on more than one occasion when I’ve needed a public shell to work from (that didn’t suck). My primary shell for university uses SunOS and has some weird quirks, so it’s nice to have an alternative.
Short version: silenceisdefeat.org is now silenceisdefeat.com, and they’re still awesome!
