nin.com Homepage Error

[laststepdown]

Hi, I'm from the midwest and thought this was just Trent being "artsy" for the past however many months. Some weird ARG for the new album? The older fans like myself have been through A LOT of internet shenanigans, especially from TF forward.

Until I went to buy 2 shirts from the store.

So the broken link thing is some 1997 geocities-esque malfunction. Got it. Thanks. It's actually heartwarming to know I'm not the only one with the issue.

It's really awesome that somebody thought to ask if it was a midwestern thing, because I'm in Missouri and have had this issue for months too. I asked this question on the NIN subreddit when it first popped up and most people were like "wtf? Works fine for me" so I assumed it was just something wrong with my connection and waved it off.

[hellospaceboy]

I'm in the Midwest and it doesn't load for me either. Never had this issue while we lived in Florida.

+1 for Toronto. Trent hates us, it's a given.

Hmm. Are you guys sure? I don't know how website would break in the US in only certain regions. I don't think that's how websites work. They are either up or they aren't. If something isn't working it would be more of an internet provider issue.

Not necessarily true. Depending on the region, your route may hit certain firewalls or proxies that if not set up identically, may block certain things from a website to load.

My bet is that it's an issue with the CDN. It's not uncommon for content platforms and ecommerce platforms to utilize content delivery networks to serve static assets such as CSS, Javascript, and images. When you hit assets.whatever.com, it's actually going to serve that from a machine that is physically closer in location to you. This typically results in a faster experience, but if a region of the CDN is down and there isn't a good failover, you're going to see something like what's going on with nin.com.

What about... now?

[henryeatscereal]

Got no problem to log to the main ".com" site from Mexico City, but when i click on the store section, it takes me to the https://store-uk.nin.com/ site for some reason.

Pretty sure Mexico isn't part of the UK

[sonic_discord]

What about... now?

Nope, it's the same (including both links you sent previously). I did notice that instead of just showing a broken image link, the alt text "Logo" is now displaying where the NIN logo should be.

Mine looks much like Jon's above. This is after I disabled Firefox's built-in tracking blockers, too.

[thenorthwood]

Yep, I’ve had the same issues since this summer, regardless of the computer or browser used. I live in Milwaukee.

Checked the site this morning, seems to be fixed from the midwest POV.

Yeah, looks like it's fixed for me, too!

lmao didn't some "Insta-celeb" or whatever they call themselves post an alleged WT release date, like, last February, along with that 100th Window vinyl reissue that never happened either?

Four years later, and we're still waiting for these later-period reissues. I will believe they are coming out when I have them in my hands and I've listened to them twice..

Yup, and now there's supposed evidence of someone with a copy of it with material inside dated February 2019. So it likely was intended to be released around then.

The date is when the article included with it was written. It does NOT mean it was intended to be released then. Something like that would be written months before release.
