iCloud Services Down
- cicloid 14y agoBesides anecdotal evidence, how could I check the status of the service? EDIT: It seems I wasnt clear enough... How could I check by myself if the service is down, if I depend of it...
- eevilspock 14y agoDid you click on the link?
- cicloid 14y agoAnd it seems I was not clear enough on my previous comment; How can I test by myself the status of the service. I don't know, maybe an API endpoint, what host to ping, something, to be able to discard network connection problems, etc.
- amirmc 14y agoIf an Apple-owned website says that an Apple-owned service is down, I'd take it on faith that the service is down. I wouldn't consider it mere "anecdotal evidence".

- Spittie 14y agoYou could use an unicode space http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars/spaces.html http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars/spaces.html
- chao- 14y agoVarious unicode control characters do not show up. The list of unicode characters that can be used in an obnoxious manner on internet forums is so long that it is almost impossible to do right. My go-to is the Cyrillic Millions sign, which is intended for use in bi-directional text. For an example, copy the line below and paste it into a browser text area and try typing off the end: "This is ".ti od ew woh
- Achshar 14y agoI can't even copy it, let alone type at the end of it. When i reach a little less than halfway through, it breaks off and selects the other half. This is interesting. I am guessing, there is a hidden unicode character that breaks of the selection.
- Xuzz 14y agoGood question. The one I posted above was an accident; I don't know how I did it.
