Could it be you’re allergic to your laundry detergent or something introduced when washing it?

To be fair, the department of defence did have the $10 billion JEDI cloud contract that Amazon and Microsoft were fighting for a few years ago, so it’s not much of a stretch.

It’d be great if there were some handing of YT video ids in Lemmy, which would be independent of the provider domain. So like in Lemmy you could link to a YT video by the id (not URL), and then based on the user settings, that would open up in Piped or Youtube based on preference. I guess this could be done client side, and rewrite youtube links, but then for people who prefer Youtube and get a piped link, you’d need to know to rewrite that link. Anyway, that’s the society I’d like to live in.

Are you saying that your LGBT group has different pronoun badges? I feel like you have to post your group’s for a pronoun badge off contest.

We don’t know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky. At the time, they were dependent on solar power. It was believed they would be unable to survive without an energy source as abundant as the sun.

A4 is 17.6mm longer than an 8.5x11" sheet of paper.

And when do you ever need the feature to fold an A4 sheet into A5?

This is why they added non removable batteries in the Gameboy Advance SP and ever since.

oh lawdosis he comin

As a side note, I’m sorry for your pain

What is the 5th flag?

I too just listened to this episode of Decoder Ring

I have the worst f***ing attorneys

What was the scam if he was reimbursing her? Was it to generate Amazon reviews?

I’ve been on flights where they have announced to the cabin about someone with a severe nut allergy, and based on anecdotal evidence of a sample size of 3 or 4, nothing bad happened on the flight.

Exactly, like how an ocean liner is a step up above a sailboat. That doesn’t mean you’re unsinkable and don’t need to worry about icebergs.

Windows is banned in my household, so l’m not worried about malware.

This is a false sense of security and just because you’re not running Windows doesn’t mean you’re immune to everything and can let your defenses down. For example, KDE recently had to announce that downloading themes will execute arbitrary code and cited someone who had personal information deleted because of downloading a theme.

Jesus, that is horrible.

State legislators from the area passed a law allowing Schlitterbahn to self-inspect its attractions without state oversight as it did in Texas, unlike all other amusement parks in Kansas, which were subject to state inspection.

Verrückt permanently closed in 2016 following a fatal incident involving the decapitation of Caleb Schwab, the 10-year-old son of Kansas state legislator Scott Schwab.

If your services are not stateless, work to make them such so you can learn about scaling in the cloud, which can even be done w/ VM-based services. how much more agility using cloud vs a DC gives you

This can’t be understated. Embracing elastic idology to remove single points of failure and decoupling stateful aspects of applications has been the biggest takeaway of being part of several migrations of services to AWS. Implementing these into your practices as you grow is a huge benefit that may is worth the cost.

Over time, if the scale you’re operating at grows, using experience/knowledge from AWS and applying it to running services in a datacenter could be beneficial. In my experience, if you have a large, consistent, asynchronous workload which you’ve maxed out on reserved instances or savings plans, it is likely cheaper to operate on your own hardware than in the cloud (or get credits from GCP or Azure to migrate services to reduce costs). This is where avoiding vendor lock-in is key.

have y’all factored in all the time/money spent on maintaining the server hardware, power, DC cooling, etc. too?

For sure, this isn’t 2007 where you need to purchase servers and network equipment to start a website. For most startups and small businesses, operating in the cloud will be less expensive upfront and likely over the first 3 years. This isn’t a one size fits all approach though, and it’d be prudent to evaluate the cloud spend periodically and compare with what’d it’d cost to manage it entirely. Obviously you’d need a team competent enough to manage this, without it going to shit.

They won’t be able bodied for long if they shoot themselves in the foot! Seriously though, some people refer to abled body people as TABs, which stands for Temporarily Able-Bodied, to drive the point that advocating against or ignoring issues which negatively impact people who are disabled may include themselves in the future.

If the Empire State Building had to adhear to parking regulations, the surrounding 15 blocks would have to be allocated for parking: https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2023/05/19/what-if-empire-state-building-met-typical-parking-requirements
