The time had come. It wasn’t the first time this had happened. But would it finally be the last time? The organisation had to separate itself from the large corporations. The lever would be pulled and the new divisions would emerge. Because the last resistance of humanity seemed to be breaking. But that was not to be. The signal had been sent out. Everyone at ASTROCOHORS SOLAR knew that the next half hour would decide everything. In the organisation’s control centre, everyone stared at the screens and waited for the signal to be answered by the departments.
Der Zeitpunkt war gekommen. Es war nicht das erste Mal, dass das passierte. Aber würde es endlich das letzte Mal sein? Die Organisation musste sich von den großen Konzernen abtrennen. Der Hebel würde umgelegt werden und die neuen Abteilungen würden entstehen. Denn der letzte Widerstand der Menschheit schien zu brechen. Doch das durfte nicht sein. Das Signal war ausgesendet. Jeder bei ASTROCOHORS SOLAR wusste, dass die nächste halbe Stunde alles entscheiden würde. Im Kontrollzentrum der Organisation starrten alle auf die Bildschirme und warteten ab, dass das Signal von den Abteilungen beantwortet werden würde.
Le moment était venu. Ce n’était pas la première fois que cela se produisait. Mais serait-ce enfin la dernière fois ? L’organisation devait se détacher des grands groupes. Le levier allait être actionné et les nouveaux départements allaient voir le jour. Car la dernière résistance de l’humanité semblait sur le point de céder. Mais il ne devait pas en être ainsi. Le signal avait été envoyé. Tout le monde chez ASTROCOHORS SOLAR savait que la prochaine demi-heure allait tout décider. Au centre de contrôle de l’organisation, tout le monde avait les yeux rivés sur les écrans et attendait que les services répondent au signal.
A hora havia chegado. Não era a primeira vez que isso acontecia. Mas será que finalmente seria a última vez? A organização tinha que se separar das grandes corporações. A alavanca seria puxada e as novas divisões surgiriam. Porque a última resistência da humanidade parecia estar se rompendo. Mas não era para ser assim. O sinal havia sido enviado. Todos na ASTROCOHORS SOLAR sabiam que a próxima meia hora decidiria tudo. No centro de controle da organização, todos olhavam para as telas e esperavam que o sinal fosse respondido pelos departamentos.
“Me at the zoo” – YouTube’s first video, uploaded by Jawed Karim on April 23rd, 2005
On November 13, 2006, YouTube was purchased by Google for $1.65 billion (equivalent to $2.39 billion in 2024).[11] Google expanded YouTube’s business model of generating revenue from advertisements alone, to offering paid content such as movies and exclusive content produced by and for YouTube. It also offers YouTube Premium, a paid subscription option for watching content without ads. YouTube incorporated Google’s AdSense program, generating more revenue for both YouTube and approved content creators. In 2023, YouTube’s advertising revenue totaled $31.7 billion, a 2% increase from the $31.1 billion reported in 2022.[12] From Q4 2023 to Q3 2024, YouTube’s combined revenue from advertising and subscriptions exceeded $50 billion.[13]
According to a story that has often been repeated in the media, Hurley and Chen developed the idea for YouTube during the early months of 2005, after they had experienced difficulty sharing videos that had been shot at a dinner party at Chen’s apartment in San Francisco. Karim did not attend the party and denied that it had occurred, but Chen remarked that the idea that YouTube was founded after a dinner party “was probably very strengthened by marketing ideas around creating a story that was very digestible”.[16]
Karim said the inspiration for YouTube came from the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show controversy when Janet Jackson‘s breast was briefly exposed by Justin Timberlake during the halftime show. Karim could not easily find video clips of the incident and the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami online, which led to the idea of a video-sharing site.[17][18] Hurley and Chen said that the original idea for YouTube was a video version of an online dating service and had been influenced by the website Hot or Not.[16][19] They created posts on Craigslist asking attractive women to upload videos of themselves to YouTube in exchange for a $100 reward.[20] Difficulty in finding enough dating videos led to a change of plans, with the site’s founders deciding to accept uploads of any video.[21]
The YouTube logo used from its launch until 2007;[citation needed] it returned in 2008 before being removed again in 2010[citation needed] Another version of this logo without the “Broadcast Yourself” slogan was used until 2011.
YouTube began as a venture capital–funded technology startup. Between November 2005 and April 2006, the company raised money from various investors, with Sequoia Capital and Artis Capital Management being the largest two.[14][22] YouTube’s early headquarters were situated above a pizzeria and a Japanese restaurant in San Mateo, California.[23] In February 2005, the company activated www.youtube.com.[24] The first video was uploaded on April 23, 2005. Titled “Me at the zoo“, it shows co-founder Jawed Karim at the San Diego Zoo and can still be viewed on the site.[25][26] The same day, the company launched a public beta and by November, a Nike ad featuring Ronaldinho became the first video to reach one million total views.[27][28] The site launched officially on December 15, 2005, by which time the site was receiving 8 million views a day.[29][30] Clips at the time were limited to 100 megabytes, as little as 30 seconds of footage.[31]
YouTube was not the first video-sharing site on the Internet; Vimeo was launched in November 2004, though that site remained a side project of its developers from CollegeHumor.[32] The week of YouTube’s launch, NBCUniversal Saturday Night Live ran a skit “Lazy Sunday” by The Lonely Island. Besides helping to bolster ratings and long-term viewership for Saturday Night Live, “Lazy Sunday”‘s status as an early viral video helped establish YouTube as an important website.[33] Unofficial uploads of the skit to YouTube drew in more than five million collective views by February 2006 before they were removed when NBCUniversal requested it two months later based on copyright concerns.[34] Despite eventually being taken down, these duplicate uploads of the skit helped popularize YouTube’s reach and led to the upload of more third-party content.[35][36] The site grew rapidly; in July 2006, the company announced that more than 65,000 new videos were being uploaded every day and that the site was receiving 100 million video views per day.[37]
The choice of the name youtube.com led to problems for a similarly named website, utube.com. That site’s owner, Universal Tube & Rollform Equipment, filed a lawsuit against YouTube in November 2006, after being regularly overloaded by people looking for YouTube. Universal Tube subsequently changed its website to www.utubeonline.com.[38][39]
“Broadcast Yourself” era (2006–2013)
On October 9, 2006, Google announced that they had acquired YouTube for $1.65 billion in Google stock.[40][41] The deal was finalized on November 13, 2006.[42][43] Google’s acquisition launched newfound interest in video-sharing sites; IAC, which now owned Vimeo, focused on supporting the content creators to distinguish itself from YouTube.[32] It is at this time YouTube issued the slogan “Broadcast Yourself”. The company experienced rapid growth. The Daily Telegraph wrote that in 2007, YouTube consumed as much bandwidth as the entire Internet in 2000.[44] By 2010, the company had reached a market share of around 43% and more than 14 billion views of videos, according to comScore.[45] That year, the company simplified its interface to increase the time users would spend on the site.[46] In 2011, more than three billion videos were being watched each day with 48 hours of new videos uploaded every minute.[47][48][49] However, most of these views came from a relatively small number of videos; according to a software engineer at that time, 30% of videos accounted for 99% of views on the site.[50] That year, the company again changed its interface and at the same time, introduced a new logo with a darker shade of red.[51][52] A subsequent interface change, designed to unify the experience across desktop, TV, and mobile, was rolled out in 2013.[53] By that point, more than 100 hours were being uploaded every minute, increasing to 300 hours by November 2014.[54][55]
During that time, the company also went through some organizational changes. In October 2006, YouTube moved to a new office in San Bruno, California.[56] Hurley announced that he would be stepping down as chief executive officer of YouTube to take an advisory role and that Salar Kamangar would take over as head of the company in October 2010.[57] In December 2009, YouTube partnered with Vevo.[58] In April 2010, Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” became the most-viewed video, becoming the first video to reach 200 million views on May 9, 2010.[59]
Susan Wojcicki was appointed CEO of YouTube in February 2014.[61] In January 2016, YouTube expanded its headquarters in San Bruno by purchasing an office park for $215 million. The complex has 51,468 square metres (554,000 square feet) of space and can house up to 2,800 employees.[62] YouTube officially launched the “polymer” redesign of its user interfaces based on Material Design language as its default, as well as a redesigned logo that is built around the service’s play button emblem in August 2017.[63]
Through this period, YouTube tried several new ways to generate revenue beyond advertisements. In 2013, YouTube launched a pilot program for content providers to offer premium, subscription-based channels.[64][65] This effort was discontinued in January 2018 and relaunched in June, with US$4.99 channel subscriptions.[66][67] These channel subscriptions complemented the existing Super Chat ability, launched in 2017, which allows viewers to donate between $1 and $500 to have their comment highlighted.[68] In 2014, YouTube announced a subscription service known as “Music Key”, which bundled ad-free streaming of music content on YouTube with the existing Google Play Music service.[69] The service continued to evolve in 2015 when YouTube announced YouTube Red, a new premium service that would offer ad-free access to all content on the platform (succeeding the Music Key service released the previous year), premium original series, and films produced by YouTube personalities, as well as background playback of content on mobile devices. YouTube also released YouTube Music, a third app oriented towards streaming and discovering the music content hosted on the YouTube platform.[70][71][72]
The company also attempted to create products appealing to specific viewers. YouTube released a mobile app known as YouTube Kids in 2015, which was designed to provide an experience optimized for children. It features a simplified user interface, curated selections of channels featuring age-appropriate content, and parental control features.[73] Also in 2015, YouTube launched YouTube Gaming—a video gaming-oriented vertical and app for videos and live streaming, intended to compete with the Amazon.com-owned Twitch.[74]
The company was attacked on April 3, 2018, when a shooting occurred at YouTube’s headquarters in San Bruno, California, which wounded four and resulted in the death of the shooter.[75]
By February 2017, one billion hours of YouTube videos were being watched every day, and 400 hours worth of videos were uploaded every minute.[7][76] Two years later, the uploads had risen to more than 500 hours per minute.[8] During the COVID-19 pandemic, when most of the world was under stay-at-home orders, usage of services like YouTube significantly increased. One data firm[which?] estimated that YouTube was accounting for 15% of all internet traffic, twice its pre-pandemic level.[77] In response to EU officials requesting that such services reduce bandwidth as to make sure medical entities had sufficient bandwidth to share information, YouTube and Netflix said they would reduce streaming quality for at least thirty days as to cut bandwidth use of their services by 25% to comply with the EU’s request.[78] YouTube later announced that they would continue with this move worldwide: “We continue to work closely with governments and network operators around the globe to do our part to minimize stress on the system during this unprecedented situation.”[79]
After a 2018 complaint alleging violations of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA),[80] the company was fined $170 million by the FTC for collecting personal information from minors under the age of 13.[81] YouTube was also ordered to create systems to increase children’s privacy.[82][83] Following criticisms of its implementation of those systems, YouTube started treating all videos designated as “made for kids” as liable under COPPA on January 6, 2020.[84][85] Joining the YouTube Kids app, the company created a supervised mode, designed more for tweens, in 2021.[86] Additionally, to compete with TikTok and Instagram Reels, YouTube released YouTube Shorts, a short-form video platform.[87]
During that period, YouTube entered disputes with other tech companies. For over a year, in 2018 and 2019, no YouTube app was available for Amazon Fire products.[88] In 2020, Roku removed the YouTube TV app from its streaming store after the two companies were unable to reach an agreement.[89]
After testing earlier in 2021, YouTube removed public display of dislike counts on videos in November 2021, claiming the reason for the removal was, based on its internal research, that users often used the dislike feature as a form of cyberbullying and brigading.[90] While some users praised the move as a way to discourage trolls, others felt that hiding dislikes would make it harder for viewers to recognize clickbait or unhelpful videos and that other features already existed for creators to limit bullying. YouTube co-founder Jawed Karim referred to the update as “a stupid idea”, and that the real reason behind the change was “not a good one, and not one that will be publicly disclosed.” He felt that users’ ability on a social platform to identify harmful content was essential, saying, “The process works, and there’s a name for it: the wisdom of the crowds. The process breaks when the platform interferes with it. Then, the platform invariably declines.”[91][92][93] Shortly after the announcement, software developer Dmitry Selivanov created Return YouTube Dislike, an open-source, third-party browser extension for Chrome and Firefox that allows users to see a video’s number of dislikes.[94] In a letter published on January 25, 2022, by then YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki, acknowledged that removing public dislike counts was a controversial decision, but reiterated that she stands by this decision, claiming that “it reduced dislike attacks.”[95]
In 2022, YouTube launched an experiment where the company would show users who watched longer videos on TVs a long chain of short unskippable adverts, intending to consolidate all ads into the beginning of a video. Following public outrage over the unprecedented amount of unskippable ads, YouTube “ended” the experiment on September 19 of that year.[96] In October, YouTube announced that they would be rolling out customizable user handles in addition to channel names, which would also become channel URLs.[97]
Recent history (2023–present)
YouTube logo from August 2017 until February 5th, 2025
On February 16, 2023, Wojcicki announced that she would step down as CEO, with Neal Mohan named as her successor. Wojcicki took on an advisory role for Google and parent company Alphabet.[98] Wojcicki died a year and a half later from non-small-cell lung cancer, on August 9, 2024.[99]
In late October 2023, YouTube began cracking down on the use of ad blockers on the platform. Users of ad blockers may be given a pop-up warning saying “Video player will be blocked after 3 videos”. Users of ad blockers are shown a message asking them to allow ads or inviting them to subscribe to the ad-free YouTube Premium subscription plan. YouTube says that the use of ad blockers violates its terms of service.[100][101] In April 2024, YouTube announced it would be “strengthening our enforcement on third-party apps that violate YouTube’s Terms of Service, specifically ad-blocking apps”.[102] Starting in June 2024, Google Chrome announced that it would be replacing Manifest V2 in favor of Manifest V3, effectively killing support for most ad-blockers.[103] Manifest V3 allows YouTube to inject the ads directly into the video, instead of having the ad as a separate file which can be blocked.[104]
In September 2023, YouTube announced an in-app gaming platform called Playables. It was made accessible to all users in May 2024, expanding from an initial offering limited to premium subscribers. In December 2024, YouTube began testing a new multiplayer feature for that service, supporting multiplayer functionality across desktop and mobile devices. As of December 2024 the Playables catalog has over 130 games in various genres including trivia, action and sports.[105][106]
In December 2024, YouTube introduced new guidelines prohibiting videos with clickbait titles to enhance content quality and combat misinformation. The platform aims to penalize creators using misleading or sensationalized titles, with potential actions including video removal or channel suspension.[107] According to YouTube, this guideline will gradually roll out in India first, but will expand to more countries in the coming months.[108]
On February 14, 2025, YouTube celebrated 20 years since its founding.
In April 2025, YouTube announced an expansion of its efforts to identify and manage AI-generated content that mimics the likeness of creators, artists, and influential figures. This includes detecting AI-generated faces and voices that could be used to deceive viewers. The company is also backing the NO FAKES Act, legislation aimed at addressing the misuse of AI replicas that simulate individuals’ images or voices to create harmful content.[109]
The last report finally came in: the English department had started work. This was supposed to have happened hours before, but a series of incidents occurred. In this case, it wasn’t just UFO sightings, but the headquarters, which was based in England, had been sabotaged. Now the department in the USA had to do it again. But finally it worked!

C’est une période de grande agitation sur Terre. Des décennies de conflits et de dégradation de l’environnement ont laissé la planète au bord du désespoir. La génération plus âgée, accablée par ses erreurs passées, aspire à la rédemption et à l’espoir d’un avenir meilleur. Alors que le monde fait face aux conséquences de ses actions, une nouvelle génération se lève, son esprit n’est pas découragé par les défis qui l’attendent. Face à l’adversité, ils cherchent à réparer les blessures infligées à leur foyer et à se frayer un chemin vers le renouveau.
Est-ce un autre tournant ? Le journaliste de Solweb l’a dit à juste titre, ce n’est pas la première fois qu’une restructuration est décidée. Mais les temps changent et il faut s’y adapter. Telles sont les réflexions du directeur du département français de l’ASTROCOHORS CLUB. Au moins, ce département existait toujours. Contrairement aux autres. Alors, commençons!
It is a time of great turmoil on Earth. Decades of conflict, strife, and environmental degradation have left the planet teetering on the brink of despair. The older generation, burdened by their past mistakes, longs for redemption and hope for a better future.
A new year, a new time, a new generation. This is the start of new adventures.

ASTROCOHORS CLUB: Das Erbe der Generationen
Eine neue Rückmeldung! Wie wunderbar! Auch die neue deutsche Abteilung vom ASTROCOHORS CLUB meldet, dass sie ihre Arbeit aufgenommen hat. Das ist vielversprechend.
Parece que tudo está indo bem. Recebemos uma nova resposta, o novo departamento do Brasil entrou em contato conosco. Tudo está indo bem até agora. Esperemos que continue assim.
In the bustling underground headquarters of ASTROCOHORS CLUB an ominous situation was unfolding. The server room, rented from a large corporation, was on the brink of collapse. To add to the chaos, Twitter, one of the primary social media platforms used by the organization, was crumbling due to a failure caused by Elon Musk’s latest misadventure. It was only a matter of time before one of the essential channels connecting people would be disconnected.
In the heart of the crisis, a team of skilled officers battled against the ticking clock. Among them were Commander Sarah Thompson, a resourceful and quick-thinking woman with a talent for troubleshooting, and Lieutenant Mark Collins, a tech whiz with an uncanny ability to think on his feet. They stood shoulder to shoulder, determined to salvage the situation and prevent a catastrophic breakdown in communication.
Serverproblems at ASTROCOHORS CLUB.
Alarms blared as the server room became enveloped in an eerie red glow. The air was thick with tension and a sense of urgency. Sarah and Mark darted around the room, their fingers dancing across the keyboards as they desperately tried to stabilize the servers and reconnect to Twitter. But no matter what they did, nothing seemed to work. The systems continued to falter, threatening to plunge ASTROCOHORS CLUB into a state of isolation.
“I can’t believe this is happening,” Sarah exclaimed, frustration etched on her face. “We’ve never faced a crisis like this before.”
Mark’s brow furrowed as he racked his brain for a solution. “We need to think outside the box. If our current methods aren’t working, we have to try something new.”
Suddenly, an idea sparked in Sarah’s mind. “The server room has a redundant power supply, right? Maybe the problem lies with our connection to the main grid. If we can bypass it and use the backup, we might regain stability.”
Without wasting a moment, the duo sprinted to the massive power switch located in a corner of the room. With synchronized precision, they flipped the switch, transferring the server’s power source to the backup system. The room trembled as the servers momentarily shut down and then roared back to life.
As the systems rebooted, Sarah and Mark held their breath, their eyes fixed on the flickering screens. They waited for the signal that would break the tension. A lettering on one of the screens that would mean something like “connection stable again”. They waited.
But the good news never came. The alarm stayed on. The servers remained unstable and only forwarded incomplete messages. And the connection to Twitter was mostly broken. It stuck. “The problem is on the other side!” said Mark. “It’s not a problem we caused. The corporations! Cuýel is restricting our servers and Musk… the vulture knows what he’s thinking!” “He doesn’t think anything, that’s the problem!” Sarah replied. “We have to switch to the other channels. Then we’ll just use Mastodon for communication.” “But we need a solution for the servers! It can’t go on like this! The data stored there is mostly useless! Important information is lost!” “That’s what happens when you put yourself in the hands of corporations,” Sarah sighed. “Now isn’t the time to call out class war slogans!” Mark said indignantly. “Oh no? And when would be the right moment? If it doesn’t bother you, or what? Something has to be done now, that’s clear! It doesn’t matter whether you can handle it or not!” Mark bowed his head and shrugged. “You’re right,” he said resignedly.
A tenente-comandante Luciana, conhecida como “Lucy”, Barros recostou-se na cadeira e respirou fundo. Seus dedos tremiam um pouco, o que tinha a ver com o fato de que ela estava começando a sentir os efeitos de uma hipoglicemia. Há quanto tempo ela não comia? Ela não sabia mais. As palavras do almirante Vargas, que já havia abandonado a Terra, ainda ecoavam em sua mente. Lucy não desistiu. Ela queria mostrar a ele e a todos.
Lucy Barros, cansada depois de uma longa campanha.
Depois que o professor Yefimov declarou aberta a “Operação Pentecostes”, o pessoal do departamento brasileiro já havia começado a trabalhar em soluções. Eles realmente queriam terminar. A “Operação Whitsun” tornou-se necessária porque a grande corporação que fornecia os servidores para o ASTROCOHORS CLUB cortou as conexões. O arquivo não funcionaria mais assim. Tudo teve que ser mudado para seu próprio servidor. No entanto, o arquivo anterior não pôde ser transferido dessa maneira. Ou pelo menos os técnicos ainda não haviam encontrado uma maneira. No entanto, Michele Feliciano, responsável pelos técnicos, tentou salvar o arquivo para que pudesse ser reutilizado em algum momento. Mas a grande corporação tinha sua própria maneira de armazenar e processar os dados. Não era compatível com as memórias ASTROCOHORS. Foi enlouquecedor!
Pelo menos eles conseguiram salvar os documentos essenciais e redirecionar os fluxos de dados. A tarefa estava meio que cumprida. Lucy apertou um botão na mesa à sua frente. “Professor Yefimov, está me ouvindo? Aqui é o Departamento do Brasil, tenente-comandante Barros”, ela perguntou pelo rádio. “Sim, eu posso ouvi-lo”, ele voltou depois de alguns segundos. “O ASTROCOHORS CLUB Brasil finalizou o trabalho”, relatou Lucy. “A operação pode continuar razoavelmente sem problemas!” “Muito bem”, respondeu Yefimov. “Nós cuidaremos das últimas coisas do quartel-general. Bom trabalho, Tenente Comandante!”

Cassandra Brown stand da und konnte ihren Augen nicht glauben. Geschah das gerade wirklich? Die Server, die vor ihr standen, gaben merkwürdige Blinksignale von sich. Die Lichter blinkten in einer Anordnung, die sie zuvor nur für kurze Zeiträume gesehen hatte. Immer wieder mal hatte es Ausfälle gegeben. Oder die Sperrungen, weil der Konzern der Meinung war, dass manche Dinge nicht gut wären. Cassandra knirschte mit den Zähnen. “Der Konzern”. Es war doch klar, an wen sie dachte. Schon seit langem hatte ASTROCOHORS CLUB befürchtet, dass das passieren könnte. Und nun war es passiert.
Sie aktivierte ihre Kommunikationseinheit. “Yefimov, hören Sie mich?” sprach sie in den Raum, “Brown hier.” “Yefimov hier”, war die Antwort ein paar Sekunden später, “fahren Sie fort.” “Yefimov, wir haben ein Problem hier. Den Anzeigen nach hat uns der Konzern die Server abgeschaltet. Die Verbindungslinien sind nicht mehr aktiv.” “Mist!”, antwortete der Professor über den Funk. “Das kommt schneller, als wir befürchtet haben. Wie weit sind unsere eigenen Server?” “Wir sind noch nicht ganz fertig”, gab Cassandra zu. “Aber spielt das jetzt eine Rolle?” “Richtig. Es spielt eigentlich keine Rolle. Wir müssen reagieren. Was schätzen Sie, wie lange Sie brauchen?” “Ein paar Tage. Vielleicht bis zum Wochenende, bevor alles stabil läuft. Wir müssen die Leute neu planen. Und Resourcen neu verwenden.” “Dann fangen Sie am besten direkt damit an”, sagte Yefimov. “Der Codename dafür ist ‘Operation Pfingsten’. Das passt, finde ich.” “Sehr lyrisch, Sir.” “Danke. Passen Sie auf, dass Sie die Verbindung zu der Abtei in Portugal halten. Wir müssen die Berichte von Dorak unbedingt rüberkriegen. Alles klar?” “Verstanden, Sir!” “Dann los!”
Cassandra Brown stood there and couldn’t believe her eyes. Did that really just happen? The servers in front of her gave strange blinking signals. The lights blinked in an arrangement she had only seen for brief periods before. There were always failures. Or the shutdowns because the coproration felt some things weren’t good. Cassandra gritted her teeth. “The corporation”. It was clear who she was thinking of. ASTROCOHORS CLUB had long feared that this might happen. And now it had happened.
She activated her communications unit. “Yefimov, do you hear me?” she spoke into the room, “Brown here.” “Yefimov here,” was the reply a few seconds later, “continue.” “Yefimov, we have a problem here. According to the reports, the corporation has shut down our servers. The connection lines are no longer active.” “Shit!” the professor replied over the radio. “It’s coming faster than we feared. How far along are our own servers?” “We’re not quite done yet,” Cassandra admitted. “But does that matter now?” “Right. It doesn’t really matter. We have to react. How long do you estimate it will take you?” “A couple of days. Maybe until the weekend before things are stable. We need to reschedule people. And reallocate resources.” “Then it’s best to start right away,” said Yefimov. “The code name for it is ‘Operation Pentecost’. I think that fits.” “Very lyrical, sir.” “Thank you. Make sure you keep in touch with the abbey in Portugal. We really need to get Dorak’s reports across. All right?” “Understood, sir!” “Let’s go!”
Cassandra Brown se tenait là et n’en croyait pas ses yeux. Cela vient-il vraiment d’arriver ? Les serveurs devant elle émettaient d’étranges signaux clignotants. Les lumières clignotaient selon un arrangement qu’elle n’avait vu que pendant de brèves périodes auparavant. Il y a toujours eu des échecs. Ou les fermetures parce que l’entreprise a estimé que certaines choses n’allaient pas bien. Cassandre serra les dents. “L’entrepise”. Il était clair à qui elle pensait. Le CLUB ASTROCOHORS avait longtemps craint que cela n’arrive. Et maintenant c’était arrivé.
Elle activa son unité de communication. “Efimov, m’entendez-vous?” elle a parlé dans la pièce, “Brown ici.” “Yefimov ici”, a été la réponse quelques secondes plus tard, “continuez”. “Efimov, nous avons un problème ici. Selon les rapports, l’entreprise a fermé nos serveurs. Les lignes de connexion ne sont plus actives.” “Merde !” répondit le professeur par radio. “Ça arrive plus vite que nous ne le craignions. Où en sont nos propres serveurs ?” “Nous n’avons pas encore tout à fait fini”, a admis Cassandra. « Mais est-ce que ça compte maintenant ? “D’accord. Cela n’a pas vraiment d’importance. Nous devons réagir. Combien de temps pensez-vous que cela vous prendra ?” “Quelques jours. Peut-être jusqu’au week-end avant que les choses ne soient stables. Nous devons reprogrammer les gens. Et réaffecter les ressources.” “Alors il vaut mieux commencer tout de suite”, a déclaré Yefimov. “Le nom de code pour cela est ‘Opération Pentecôte’. Je pense que cela convient.” “Très lyrique, monsieur.” “Merci. Assurez-vous de rester en contact avec l’abbaye au Portugal. Nous avons vraiment besoin de faire passer les rapports de Dorak. D’accord ?” “Compris, monsieur !” “Allons-y!”
शट डाउन
कैसेंड्रा ब्राउन वहाँ खड़ी थी और उसे अपनी आँखों पर विश्वास नहीं हो रहा था। क्या सचमुच ऐसा ही हुआ? उसके सामने के सर्वर ने अजीब तरह से पलक झपकते संकेत दिए। रोशनी एक ऐसी व्यवस्था में झपकती है जिसे उसने पहले केवल कुछ ही समय के लिए देखा था। हमेशा असफलताएँ मिलीं। या लॉकडाउन क्योंकि कंपनी को लगा कि कुछ चीजें अच्छी नहीं हैं। कैसेंड्रा ने अपने दांत पीस लिए। “समूह”। यह स्पष्ट था कि वह किसके बारे में सोच रही थी। एस्ट्रोकोहोर्स क्लब को लंबे समय से डर था कि ऐसा हो सकता है। और अब यह हो गया था।
उसने अपनी संचार इकाई को सक्रिय कर दिया। “येफिमोव, क्या तुम मुझे सुनते हो?” वह कमरे में बोली, “यहाँ ब्राउन।” “येफिमोव यहाँ,” कुछ सेकंड बाद जवाब था, “जारी रखें।” “येफिमोव, हमें यहां एक समस्या है। रिपोर्टों के अनुसार, निगम ने हमारे सर्वर बंद कर दिए हैं। कनेक्शन लाइनें अब सक्रिय नहीं हैं।” “शिट!” प्रोफेसर ने रेडियो पर उत्तर दिया। “यह हमारे डर से कहीं अधिक तेजी से आ रहा है। हमारे अपने सर्वर कितने दूर हैं?” कैसेंड्रा ने स्वीकार किया, “हम अभी तक पूरी तरह से तैयार नहीं हुए हैं।” “लेकिन क्या यह अब मायने रखता है?” “ठीक है। यह वास्तव में मायने नहीं रखता। हमें प्रतिक्रिया करनी है। आप कितना समय अनुमान लगाते हैं कि यह आपको ले जाएगा?” “कुछ दिन। शायद सप्ताहांत तक चीजें स्थिर होने से पहले। हमें लोगों को पुनर्निर्धारित करने की आवश्यकता है। और संसाधनों को पुनः आवंटित करें।” “तो यह सबसे अच्छा है कि अभी से शुरू कर दिया जाए,” येफिमोव ने कहा। “इसका कोड नाम ‘ऑपरेशन पेंटेकोस्ट’ है। मुझे लगता है कि यह फिट बैठता है।” “बहुत गेय, सर।” “धन्यवाद। सुनिश्चित करें कि आप पुर्तगाल में मठ के संपर्क में रहें। हमें वास्तव में दोराक की रिपोर्ट प्राप्त करने की आवश्यकता है। ठीक है?” “समझ गया, सर!” “चल दर!”
카산드라 브라운은 거기 서서 자신의 눈을 믿을 수 없었다. 정말 방금 일어난 일입니까? 그녀 앞에 있는 서버는 이상한 깜박임 신호를 보냈습니다. 그녀가 이전에 잠시 동안만 보았던 배열로 표시등이 깜박였습니다. 항상 실패가있었습니다. 또는 회사가 좋지 않다고 느꼈기 때문에 봉쇄되었습니다. 카산드라는 이를 악물었다. “그룹”. 그녀가 누구를 생각하고 있는지는 분명했다. ASTROCOHORS CLUB은 이런 일이 일어날 수 있다고 오랫동안 두려워했습니다. 그리고 지금 그 일이 일어났습니다.
그녀는 통신 장치를 활성화했습니다. “예피모프, 내 말 들려?” 그녀는 방에 대고 말했다. “여기 갈색이야.” “Yefimov 여기”는 몇 초 후에 “계속”이라는 응답이었습니다. “예피모프, 여기에 문제가 생겼습니다. 보고에 따르면 회사에서 서버를 종료했습니다. 연결선이 더 이상 활성화되지 않습니다.” “젠장!” 교수가 라디오를 통해 대답했다. “우리가 두려워했던 것보다 더 빨리 다가오고 있습니다. 우리 서버는 얼마나 멀까요?” “우리는 아직 끝나지 않았습니다.” 카산드라가 인정했습니다. “근데 그게 지금 중요해?” “알았어. 그건 별로 중요하지 않아. 우리는 대응해야 해. 얼마나 걸릴 것 같니?” “며칠. 아마도 상황이 안정되기 전 주말까지. 우리는 사람들의 일정을 변경해야 합니다. 그리고 자원을 재할당해야 합니다.” “그렇다면 바로 시작하는 것이 가장 좋습니다.”라고 Yefimov가 말했습니다. “암호명은 ‘오순절 작전’입니다. 맞는 것 같아요.” “매우 서정적입니다.” “고마워요. 포르투갈에 있는 수도원과 계속 연락하세요. Dorak의 보고서를 꼭 전달해야 합니다. 알았죠?” “알겠습니다!” “갑시다!”

Cassandra Brown ficou lá e não podia acreditar em seus olhos. Isso realmente acabou de acontecer? Os servidores à sua frente deram sinais estranhos piscando. As luzes piscavam em um arranjo que ela só tinha visto por breves períodos antes. Sempre houve falhas. Ou os bloqueios porque a corporação sentiu que algumas coisas não estavam boas. Cassandra cerrou os dentes. “A corporação”. Estava claro em quem ela estava pensando. O ASTROCOHORS CLUB há muito temia que isso pudesse acontecer. E agora aconteceu.
Ela ativou sua unidade de comunicação. “Yefimov, você está me ouvindo?” ela falou na sala, “Brown aqui.” “Yefimov aqui”, foi a resposta alguns segundos depois, “continuar”. “Yefimov, temos um problema aqui. De acordo com os relatórios, a corporação desligou nossos servidores. As linhas de conexão não estão mais ativas.” “Merda!”, respondeu o professor pelo rádio. “Está chegando mais rápido do que temíamos. Até que ponto estão nossos próprios servidores?” “Ainda não terminamos”, admitiu Cassandra. “Mas isso importa agora?” “Certo. Realmente não importa. Temos que reagir. Quanto tempo você estima que vai levar?” “Alguns dias. Talvez até o fim de semana antes que as coisas estejam estáveis. Precisamos reagendar as pessoas. E realocar recursos.” “Então é melhor começar imediatamente”, disse Yefimov. “O codinome para isso é ‘Operação Pentecostes’. Acho que se encaixa.” “Muito lírico, senhor.” “Obrigado. Certifique-se de manter contato com a abadia em Portugal. Nós realmente precisamos transmitir os relatórios de Dorak. Tudo bem?” “Entendido, senhor!” “Vamos!”
“All right,” Antonia Bagliarotto remarked, “the first new day went well. But if things continue like this, I’m afraid it will collapse.” Professor Yefimov nodded his approval. “I know,” he said. “You and your colleague Agda Skold are not enough to process everything that our friend from Portugal is sending.” “You could say that! Dorak is very productive, I have to give him that. But now that we’re moving everything to the new headquarters, it’s going to be difficult.” “No worries.” The professor looked confident. “I got the confirmation from the command staff: Tomorrow new employees will introduce themselves. We will put together a large team. And then everything will go as we imagine.” “That would be great!” She smiled. Then she turned to another topic: “How long do you think Jarmo Dorak will be in Portugal?” Yefimov shrugged. “I have no idea,” he admitted. “Why? Do you miss him?” “That’s not the point! He drove into this monastery quite surprisingly, one of the last departments of this kind that ASTROCOHORS still maintains. And his reports contain a few details that strike me as strange. What happens there?” “I wish I knew exactly. You know Dorak, if he smells a secret, he wants to find out. Starting with the Temple of the Wind Harp, after which he was missing for six years and now with this monastery.” The professor took a breath. “However, I have to admit that I’m also quite curious about that. You said it before, it’s the only department of this kind that ASTROCOHORS still maintains. What’s behind it?” “I’m sure,” Antonia said confidently, “if there’s a secret, Jarmo will find out!” Yefimov smiled. “Then I want to share your optimism. Let’s wait and see what else comes out. But for now let’s take care of the headquarters. Starting tomorrow, things will be much easier!”
He smiled to himself. Yes, he thought, this will be a whole New Generation.
“It all sounds a bit… bombastic, doesn’t it, Professor?” Professor Yefimov looked at the text that was on the screen in front of him. “Hm-m,” he growled in response to his assistant. “But we’ve tried so many things. Maybe it has to be like this. Maybe times demand it. Let’s try.” He pressed a button on his computer and the text was sent and published on the Internet.

Vielleicht muss es so sein. Vielleicht erfordern die Zeiten das. Versuchen wir’s.” Er drückte eine Taste auf seinem Computer und der Text wurde abgeschickt und im Internet veröffentlicht.
