That’s true! I’ve read recently that GitHub’s uptime is pretty terrible too.

My site is low enough stakes that I can live with it on codeberg. I just relaxed the uptime check a bit so it only alarms if I have an extended outage. Even so, the alarms aren’t actionable to me…other than maybe announcing to my users that there’s an outage rather than having them ask me if I’m aware of the outage.

That’s true, but even at worst case (full 8 hour outage per week) that’s still 96% uptime.

Most of my outages have been out of that window.

I like codeberg and have no plans on migrating away from it, but their codeberg Pages product is…weak to say the least. There’s very frequent downtime. I had multiple users reach out to me letting me know my site was down… embarrassing. I set up kuma uptime checks on it, and now I see when the outages happen.

Forget “four 9’s” or anything close to that…my 30 day uptime is a measley 91%…

This is that one guy on the flight who won’t close his bright af laptop while everyone else is trying to sleep

Sounds cool. I’d love to see some side by side pics of a frame from a standard emulator next to a frame from zsnes, or a short gif comparison

Ah gee you’re right. Let’s shut down all the privacy blogs and communities. No reason to talk about privacy violations at all anymore.

This is a little disengenuous…the browser extension ≠ the desktop app. Some people install the app and only use the chat feature. Some use cowork but would never want to use the browser extension. Assuming that installing a desktop app means you should also want the browser extension is just bad logic.

is this a ponzi scheme? wtf is happening? Where are they going to get 100B? because it sure as hell isn’t from selling Claude subscriptions

Ok, but what’s the solution then? Certainly not the age verification pushes we have seen recently. The tech itself should be regulated, not the users.

“Parenting is hard” doesn’t take the responsibility away from parents to actually parent their kids and to be aware of what their kids are doing online. I’m not saying everyone will magically start doing that, or that we should expect them to. I’m saying it’s not the government’s job to close that gap. The government doesn’t know what’s best for kids. It’s extremely self evident in the whole age verification push itself. Completely tech illiterate boomers making flawed assumptions about how to handle a situation, and destroying everyone’s privacy in the process. They don’t get to do that just because the US is full of idiots who don’t know how to be parents.

How does it benefit the area? The money goes to the power cartels either way, and the data centers harm the environment and the people living near them regardless of the electricity cost.

Flock’s response:

No.

Assuming a minimal plugin footprint, what’s the point of using obsidian over simply writing markdown files in a folder?

Does this website block firefox reader mode or is it just me?

I almost bought a RPi and realized I’d get better value at a Dell mini PC. Sure it’s significantly bigger than a Pi, but it’s still small enough for my use case. I just don’t see a good reason to get a Pi anymore. It used to be a cheap hobbyist board. Now it’s…something else.
