Aftermath

Although the government had the support of the majority in the parliament, Adnan Menderes resigned because of a political crisis about press freedom, called the "right to prove" (Turkish: İspat hakkı). Following this resignation, a group of MPs left the DP to form the Liberty Party.

gollark: Somehow enabling iLO (HP's remote management thing) in the "shared network port" mode has resulted in my server completely failing to connect to my network at all (apart from the iLO thing) and - somehow - my computer changing its IP to an unrelated one I don't have configured anywhere and failing to connect to anything.
gollark: I'd hope that mostly they're not configured that way.
gollark: I don't think a GPU would help.
gollark: I think most containers don't come with init systems in them.
