No. But you should be wearing a proper, non-valved mask.

Yeah. And nobody can do anything other than wait until their period has passed. I had to mail Hetzner multiple times because of this.

Long, long time ago, when last.fm radio was still a thing on it's own, I loved it: instead of pre-arranging a playlist, it kept adding the next song by searching for similar ones based on the one currently playing. It kept crawling awa

99.95% is a high standard already: 365x0.0005x24 is 4.38 hours outage for a year. In our current world, 4.38 hours is certainly not enough time to, say, rebuild a DB from backup, if needed.

All of them, sadly. Outlook is probably the craziest of all, adding the a /16 of Hetzner, because 1 IP sent spam.

Update: from what I read, the reasoning can probably only effects systems where history is stored - slack, matrix, to name two. IRC most probably not, XMPP only if configured. Email: unlikely, it's a very different system.

Doesn't work; the 1U fans are a different format, than any noctua I was able to locate. Regardless I tried putting noctua in a 1U rack, ended up with horrible hack like this: https://petermolnar.net/article/home-se

That's ridiculous on it's own. I mean... got out on the street and listen to how people talk.

There is a significant difference there though: reddit is still a single, central entity. Matrix, XMPP, email, (and activitypub based systems, ssbc, and anything federated) could be connecting to one's own server. It could be a machine

That's a feature, not a bug. Believe it or not, people don't like app/sw updates. Devs and money people do.

So in this regards, Matrix is no different from email. Should it be expected that the play store will ban email clients?

Those might be the exceptions, at least for now. Ever since Firefox's crusade against IE the majority of people seem to still know there are different ~programs~ apps to access the internet with. As long as Chrome is not the default in

This is insane. This jeopardizes every email, xmpp, matrix, etc; basically any 3rd party application.

Yes, I can. But I need to use the stuff I wrote with googling in the past ~20 years.

I simply accepted it loads slower. It's long bad if I don't have 5s to wait.

On that list, there are projects like https://github.com/Hypercubed/git2html . It makes a set of static files, which could be uploaded to any static hosting provider, including github pages.

Unpopular question: if this is the case, why put it on github? There are countless web frontends[^1] to expose a git tree on the internet, without the community/social aspect of github. [^1]: https://git.wiki.kernel.org&#x2F

Find out which party makes sense to you. In the UK, there are usually "tests" where you answer questions based on what you think, and it'll show you to what percent you agree with which party. If I'd have to guess, the P

Everyone who are finding the pricing too high: care to share why you're not hosting/running your own gitlab instances?

Is anyone even questioning this any more in 2021?
