Nothing relating to the "www.irontowerstudio.com" "grouping" (I can't remember the correct term) is accessible, unfortunately. Really, I would be certain (as was my second thought, after realising it might not just be down) it was some setting on my computer that was the problem, if it wasn't for the fact that my phone can't access it either.
Furthermore, pinging-requests all fail to do reach the site/whatever it is they're supposed to do, timing out.

IP Ban maybe?

An IP-range ban for both his computer ISP and his phone's ISP? Unlikely. Though it could be something the like.
Try asking a friend (ideally, a neighbor) to access the site.

Edit of forgetfulness: The fact that your ping requests are timing out means that your PC can't "see" the webpage. Do you have dynamic IP?

Yeah, I suppose it's down to that, then. Might check it out on a library computer tomorrow while I'm in town as well, but perhaps not. Not friendlies with any neighbours, though, or anyone in the "county", really, so it's a no on the regional aspect of it. We'll see how it goes.

Apparently the Austrian motto is 'Callouses machen frei.'

I chuckled.

Fixed.

Wait, what? Are you telling me that in addition to everything else, the Nazis were bad at German grammar? I know it would be "machen (Sie) frei" if it was addressed to a specific person, but I thought "macht frei" was correct if speaking in the abstract.

The "Sie" isn't necessary. The english sentence doesn't have "you" in it either, after all.


Also, "callouses" isn't a german word (obviously), so it's rather ... uh, what does callouses mean anyway?

Just got in trouble for posting another rant elsewhere.

Fuck me.  Once again, I've been told that I'm "overthinking it."  I've really got to stop posting things at 3 AM, anywhere.

Is because "calluses" is pluaral.
While in the original "Arbeit" is singular.

I got some on the pads of my feet. Not the normal feet heel type areas.

They are good in away, they keep me standing straight.

On the other hand my feet are now very unsensitive. That can some times be annoying... Although it does allow me to go outside without shoes or socks in the winter.

I've got them on my left pinky finger. How did they even get there? Oo

Obviously too much repetitive motion.

If you're left-handed and they're on the side, they're probably from writing.
