The plugin, tweetily, apparently isn&#8217;t compatible with the version of PHP we&#8217;re running. The hosting company tech renamed the plugin and now it&#8217;s loading.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t recall what the plugin was for other then it was something to do with Twitter. I&#8217;ve since removed it as no longer functional or supported. It does seem odd that it suddenly broke, however, I suspect it&#8217;s been acting up for some time, and wasn&#8217;t taking the site down, just making things act odd.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your patience as we worked to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n<span id=\"wp-postratings-26955\" class=\"wp-postratings\" data-nonce=\"083441b8a3\"><span class=\"wp-postratings-vote wp-postratings-scale wp-postratings-shape-star\" style=\"--wp-postratings-shape:url(data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%27http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%27%20viewBox=%270%200%2024%2024%27%3E%3Cpath%20d=%27M12%202.4l2.95%205.98%206.6.96-4.77%204.65%201.12%206.57L12%2017.46l-5.9%203.1%201.12-6.57L2.45%209.34l6.6-.96z%27\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E)\" data-post-id=\"26955\" role=\"radiogroup\" aria-label=\"Rate this post\"><input type=\"radio\" id=\"wp-postratings-26955-5\" name=\"wp-postratings-26955\" value=\"5\" data-rating=\"5\" \/><label for=\"wp-postratings-26955-5\" style=\"--wp-postratings-step-fill:100%\"><i class=\"wp-postratings-item\"><\/i><span>5 Stars<\/span><\/label><input type=\"radio\" id=\"wp-postratings-26955-4\" name=\"wp-postratings-26955\" value=\"4\" data-rating=\"4\" \/><label for=\"wp-postratings-26955-4\" style=\"--wp-postratings-step-fill:100%\"><i class=\"wp-postratings-item\"><\/i><span>4 Stars<\/span><\/label><input type=\"radio\" id=\"wp-postratings-26955-3\" name=\"wp-postratings-26955\" value=\"3\" data-rating=\"3\" \/><label for=\"wp-postratings-26955-3\" style=\"--wp-postratings-step-fill:100%\"><i class=\"wp-postratings-item\"><\/i><span>3 Stars<\/span><\/label><input type=\"radio\" id=\"wp-postratings-26955-2\" name=\"wp-postratings-26955\" value=\"2\" data-rating=\"2\" \/><label for=\"wp-postratings-26955-2\" style=\"--wp-postratings-step-fill:100%\"><i class=\"wp-postratings-item\"><\/i><span>2 Stars<\/span><\/label><input type=\"radio\" id=\"wp-postratings-26955-1\" name=\"wp-postratings-26955\" value=\"1\" data-rating=\"1\" \/><label for=\"wp-postratings-26955-1\" style=\"--wp-postratings-step-fill:100%\"><i class=\"wp-postratings-item\"><\/i><span>1 Star<\/span><\/label><\/span> (<strong>1<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>5.00<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><span class=\"wp-postratings-text\" id=\"wp-postratings-26955-text\"><\/span><\/span>\n<p><em><strong>~The Angry Systems Administrator~<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/dr_strangelove_1ed07.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13627\" src=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/dr_strangelove_1ed07-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/dr_strangelove_1ed07-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/dr_strangelove_1ed07-150x112.jpg 150w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/dr_strangelove_1ed07-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/dr_strangelove_1ed07.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day everyone, this is the Angry Systems Administrator.
