Like, really? o_O

OK, apparently we need subtitles on:

This was a planned April fool, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day
We never lost control of anyting.
No content was moved, altered, removed, or otherwise compromised.
No machine was compromised.
Noone got unauthorised access to any machine or service.

No worries everybody: at 1:04:19 PM UTC today we will all come back to
our "normal" pointless lives :)
