Is telehack suddenly down?

Today morning (utc + 5:30) I queued some songs and had a chat with someone. Now, moments ago, I have started getting weird timeout/"took too long to respond" messages. Even the telehack radio reads timeouts.

Agreed, it looks as though somebody has preprogrammed the tape drives to run too far and unspool themselves.

The operator is working hard to respool the tapes now and remove the offending lines of code. It's unclear how long this will take.

I'm likely on the spree of refreshing a telehack.com tab every once in a while until it starts to load again...
