Cost and risk.

Edge networking services can be expensive and Cloudflare offers a free tier which is decent. Additionally, I’m sure down detector has a method of making money, but I sure don’t pay them. I can’t imagine I’m the weird one. So they are almost certainly operating on a tight budget.

It’s fresh in our minds today, but these big providers are way more reliable than not. It makes sense to use them because they are generally not down.

It just doesn’t make sense to do anything different. I doubt they change even after this outage. I certainly wouldn’t.

Cloudflare is a standard piece of kit for any moderately popular website. It handles things like strict SSL enforcement, anti ddos (this is a big reason), and other edge networking functions that modern websites need.

You really get robbed on the salted variety. You get 9 extra peanuts worth in the unsalted package.

Mass layoffs or deferred resignation aren’t called out specifically.

So relatable.

It’ll be paywalled behind the pro edition in W12. Microsoft thanks you for your idea.

I find that having a task list that you use religiously helps a lot because then you can visually see what you have to do.

At some point though, if you’re getting all your work done and don’t have more to do, work on bettering yourself in some way you care about and enjoy it while it lasts.

Don’t leave me hanging, what are the 10 staples?

Bazzite.

I found it really easy to get started with. Although I’d recommend KDE over Gnome. I tried Gnome for a few hours before changing my mind and it was just a little too different from what I was used to.

This is me. Always Windows for my gaming computer and when I built a new one recently, I went full Linux. No regrets so far.

It’s OK, lots of men don’t have it. It was probably taken from you when you were young.
