I dont think so. The front page is back but things using the database (forum store) seem to be pretty broken. Maybe he got hacked again or maybe a server crashed and they're restoring from backups?

Right before I posted I checked out smbc-theater but didn't really pay attention to the content. My work laptop probably has the hard drive HIV but I'm not showing any symptoms right now so if you guys really love me you'll still swap data with me.

smbc is protesting today but I noticed some comments yesterday from 1/15 and 1/17 talking about them moving to a new city. I doubt he hosts his site on a server at home but the outtage could've be related.

Here's a list of sites protesting. It's probably not comprehensive but impressive. nerds unite!
