[Bangyai]

The Chinese assault marines are landing in Pattaya right now and securing soi 6 and other key points.

Grab your Chinese phrase books, pack a few things and flee to the dark side

[Bangyai]

Its working on my very expensive Samsung smart tv.

 

False alarm.

[JaiMaai]

It lloks like a Google account problem.  Things are failing when signed in (or trying to sign in).

[2long]

It's playing a video I started hours ago, but only cached pages are displaying around the world.

The beginning of the end is here! ????????

[AlfHuy]

It's a worldwide problem.

 

Can't access my pro... Youtube channel. Damn.

[CorpusChristie]

Mines working .

Just tell me what song you want to listen to, and I will post it up on here 

 

 

 

[2long]

It's back.

Like the activity when watching Xhamster, 'Well, that didn't last very long!'

From the BBC item linked to by 2long above:

 

"Google has been contacted for comment, but one spokesperson said they were unable to access their email".

 

Maybe they should switch to Outlook?

I was just going to post something here about not being able to login to google accounts.

 

Started as a youtube glitch, in which I deleted cookies and would need to login again.   But then I could not login.  accounts.google.com would say "account does not exist"   So then I REALLY started to get nervous.

 

Both 3bb and myCat networks.

 

This is pretty big.

[Chivas]

Its working on smart TV but its logged me out

[phetphet]

Multiple Google services and websites including YouTube, Gmail, Google Assistant, and Google Docs have been hit with a widespread outage. DownDetector indicates that the outage, which appears to be affecting Google’s business and personal services, started at around 6:40AM ET in the case of Gmail. Reports are mounting on Twitter as users can’t access its basic services, with Gmail and the hashtag “#YouTubeDOWN” starting to trend.

As of this writing, the status page for Google’s services is reporting that they’re all experiencing an outage.

I can get Twitter on my phone but not my PC.

[4evermaat]

Seems to have gone away.   I was able to login to google accounts that were previously showing "account does not exist"????

 

Not sure if the fix is permanent or there might be another wave.   @webfact Will be interesting to hear what excuse google releases.  

[VBF]

All back up in UK as of 13:00 GMT - a rare but annoying outage

[poohy]

Can you imagine the TV mob of computer repairers trying to sort this out

Without first bothering to do their basic research ????   https://istheservicedown.co.uk/status/gmail

 

And as for blaming the Russians for every technical outage in the world...why next they'll be blaming Covid on 5G!  ????????????????????
