  Dionysius1: And it's a bit tricky, because when I try to access any individual page within the chessgames.com website, I'm given the same warning, and at own risk I can proceed to that page, but only that page.

If it helps, the message I get on Google Chrome is: Your connection is not private/attackers might be trying to steal your information fromwww.chessgames.com (for example, passwords, messages or credit cards)/ NET:ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID, and then an option to proceed at own risk.

I think I'll give it a day or two and try again.

Apr-20-22  diceman: <MissScarlett: Visitors to the site are being warned that its not secure, proceed at own risk, etc. Did somebody forget something again?>

Yes, I received the same.
That Firefox detects an error on this site.

Apr-20-22  diceman: <MissScarlett:

proceed at own risk>

Could be as simple as harry is posting in the cafe!

Apr-20-22  diceman: It also looks like the Laboratory isn't working. (Don't know if it's related to the above)

6-second analysis keeps running, and says you have pending requests.

Susan, you sure you don't want to transfer <CG> over to me?

(I'll be very modest in fees and the site would be in the hands of the guy who's probably got the biggest overlap with Daniel's skill set.)

.

Apr-20-22  Z free or die: Since the certificate isn't working my override (via Chrome on Linux) works, but I think any and all images not in my cache won't load.

I think that's why <Missy> could see the diagram on a game page that I couldn't.

Basically, until the certificate is fixed expect various errors on <CG>.

I advise all biographers to hold off on any/all updates as well.

Apr-20-22  Messiah: Finally, an expired TLScert. I love CG's surprises!

  Susan Freeman: <z> I believe I asked you before and you declined. I need a front end coder in the near future and Steve could use some help. I remember seeing the SSL email and then it was gone. Caisso is in charge of the emails and I help when I can. Especially if it concerns billing. You’d be surprised how many people charge twice. Out demographics are becoming younger and younger. I need an NDA signed by you and your CV. And what you require for salary. TIA

  Willber G: If <Z>takes over CG then I want to buy shares and watch the millions roll in. Why? Because <Z> obviously stands for <Zuckerberg>.

  MissScarlett: Last time I checked, the net worth of this site was estimated at c.$70,000. I would add a few zeroes, <zed> would subtract them.

  Susan Freeman: <MissS> wheat was you source for 70,000. That doesn’t even cover the costs and salaries

  MissScarlett: Net worth isn't directly related to the level of costs and revenues.

  HeMateMe: what about the strange <security> warning that was shown on this website Wednesday morning, that slowed or blocked log ins? Was it some sort of interna glitch, or malware, hackers trying to take over people's computers?

  Dionysius1: It's working again at my end - no more "...invalid" messages. Yay! Thanks guys :-)

(I THINK "guys" includes "gals" now? Like actor includes actress?). Heartfelt thanks.
