chat.renderosity.com:8082 is down at the moment, and it hosts the socket.io.js framework that makes chat work. Every other piece of JS the chat uses is hosted elsewhere (either on port 80 or an external content delivery network), but socket.io is the glue that manages web-based chats that aren't just frontends to some IRC server.

Port 8082 is probably reserved for chat communication which is why the page still loads (because that happens over port 80).

Admins, feel free to correct everything I probably got wrong here.
