- WendyTheWillow 3y agoColloquially perhaps, but it is wrong from a technological perspective, and IMO that matters.
- phyzome 3y agoThe URL https://www.bl.uk/ https://www.bl.uk/ is working fine, but the site is busted.
- Retr0id 3y agoIt returns a resource but I wouldn't say it's working.
- ldarby 3y agoI found it confusing - if a URL is "offline", I'd expect some kind of error message like connection refused or no such domain. The URL here is not "offline", it's the BL that's offline, and the BL isn't a URL.
- Retr0id 3y agoIf it displayed the Cloudflare 502 Bad Gateway error page, would you consider the URL to be offline? There's no Cloudflare here, but I see it as conceptually the same thing.

- netsharc 3y agoSounds like a middle manager adding technical terms to sound more... technical.
- efdee 3y agoNot really, since in the context of a store, "location" often refers to an instance rather than it's location coordinates. A better analogy would be saying the store's address is closed. Doesn't make sense.
