Nothing is working for me, Oceania/Australia.

Including O365, Azure, Azure Devops.

The types of companies that use Windows will atypically take a long time to get on a modern version for their stack. Desktop fleet withstanding.

Same here.

AWS has acted upon similar reports in the past, Azure may have but the lack of comms and delays in seeing any action (if any) hasn't inspired confidence.

As others have stated I worked around it by setting up a wifi connection with different DNS servers and adding '- No Adblock' to the SSID.

Not all routers have this functionality and if it doesn't you should be able to flash Tomato or similar, or use PfSense. Depending how home baked you want to go.

I use Borg (https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) with some Python and Bash scripts.

All my containers write to the same volume mount (e.g., /mnt/docker_share/$service_name), the scripts shutdown the LVM, run the backups from Borg, sync the files to rsync.net and turn the LVM back on when the backups finish.

Meant to say December.

Same here in Central Victoria, Queensland.

There must have been thousands of then flying around on the 29th January.

Don't leave us hanging! What happened next!?

Source in this instance doesn't always mean source code but _the source were you're downloading it from_.

If canonical.com tells me to curl $url | sh, I'm fairly confident the script Im downloading is safe. as much as an .iso, .bin or .exe would be.

But I'd be a lot more hesitant doing the same from craigs-legit-swe-blog.com.

Seems very likely, it's now known (maybe always was) that metadata fields aren't encrypted. If Twitter poster added those keys to a 'metadata field's then they were clear text.

LastPass has a LOT to answer for.

Admittedly I've not worked in many environments that could ever be described as being anything less than 'enterprise', and within orders of magnitude larger than medium/large businesses.

If you had a niche market and only needed a small footprint. I can see a handful of VPS' or similar being suitable.

But once you get to the 200+ people mark, it gets messy. And gets much worse at 2,000 head. And worse yet at 20,000.

I believe the account he banned vs unbanned has a distinction. One account alligns with his long term strategy for $x whereas the other competes against his $x strategy.

It's difficult to say what said strategy is or may be but it'd be foolish to assume his decisions haven't been considered and vetted. But yes, intent is not well understood at all.

Based on this article, Bond Q came first.

Same here.

At massive scale, sure, it might make sense to run your own infrastructure and data centres. Some may even run their own private cloud and get the benefits we see from the public cloud today from their own IT depts.

The vast majority of us however had nothing in common with the above. Like you we ran the hardware, and to the business, we were never more than a cost centre and anything pitched to the broader business to "improve" outcomes for the development teams were seen as a cost without benefit.

I find a lot of people who are proponents for getting rid of the cloud never had to manage their own infrastructure, and have very rose tinted glasses for a reality that never existed for most.

Yep, same here. What a delightful TV show but understanding the actors speach which admittedly is gutteral at times was nearly impossible. It basically enforced CC for me at times.

Wasn't this the same for WhatsApp?

For what purpose or enabler does permissionless benefit this use case you have in mind? Or in another way, what does requiring permissions block your use case?

On recollection there's definitely a non-zero number of 32 bit machines I worked on up until I quit my last job.

Out of support, aging 32bit SPARC hosts running 4.6c SAP.

In spite of knowing about this issue in 2038, registering a lot of domains to the affect and hoping I can burst out a lot of contracting work that year, make bank and retire.

I use EPOC time in my own code NOW, a lot... :-/

Deterance is the outcome the courts were hoping for here.

Yeah he's not pro regulation is pro _regulatory capture_.

You're both doing incredible work. It's heart breaking losing a dog, it's raw for me now currently I'm still in the crying-almost-daily stage.

Not too dissimilar to me, though I don't often go breed specific but age. I've foster failed a few dogs in the last 6-7 years. I lost my recent foster fail Buster on the 2nd of November and I only got him back from the crematorium yesterday.

It's been a rough few weeks, this home has only ever been a home with Buster in it and it's been dreadfully empty with his passing. I cry every day I see something that reminds me of him.

Baby gates that stop him going up and down stairs because of his arthritis. His dog beds in each room which he would follow us when my partner and I worked from home. Food bowls. His blankets to keep him old bones warm. Coming home or getting out of bed and him not being there to howl at me. It's truly dreadful.

Buster was 14.5 years old when he passed and was 12 yo when I adopted him. I didn't believe his age when I adopted him. He was a Husky X Boxer so I could only imagine what he was like as a puppy considering his appetite for movement at 12 yo when he was effectively 100+ in human years.

I want to wait a while before fostering or adopting again but... I'm getting warn down by all the dogs that are needing a home from the groups I volunteer and donate to. I'm doom scrolling dogs in need daily.

I suspect the author of the website has no time for tart apples, seems there's a bias for sweetness.

Kind way of describing bleach.

Mastodon isn't an argument that social media isn't terrible.

The same argument can't be made for crypto exchanges and the industry they occupy also being terrible.

The exchange is a component of crypto, as an industry. Imagine defending social media but shitting on Facebook. To use your words to try and make your argument:

This isn't social media. This is Facebook with a centralized website, with centralized databases, that is run and controlled by humans. In fact, if you use a Facebook there is no use of social media for the most part.

There's a literal saying, "not paying for it, you're the proruct". Only if people would listen.

NullPassword?

Dell iDRACs had the same 5-10 years ago. I only found this out after changing them all across 200+ hosts and trying to log into a few of them again a few months later.

Made for a fun weekend and a fun flight all across Australia to our various DCs.

Docker on Windows absolutely sucks.

I write a lot of tools for my colleagues and I've gone out of my way to say "I can gurantee this .devcontainer will work on WSL2" and leaving my support of it there. Since even .devcontainers behave differently on Linux and Windows.

"I'm in a similar boat. I hate Docker. I haven't used it myself..."

Different brushes for different strokes but I'm curious to know how you can hate something without having tried it? This might be understandable for something like sexuality or even types of video games, but containerisation, .devcontainers and the like. How can you hate something without trying it?

Docker doesn't shove anything under the rug and hide it in my experience, instead it surfaces reproducibility in your face and encourages you to deal with it.

What's the alternative for compilable languages short of makefiles? Even then you can't guarantee it will work on your colleagues Linux and MacOS workstations (let's ignore Windows) but that's where docker and .devcontainer shine.
