Aw man. Old post. I thought it went down again and I was stoked lol
On super Tuesday. Coincidence?
$100 it’s the Chinese in retaliation for TikTok, too logical to ignore.
Lemmy server operators can now say they have better 24h uptime than Meta! lol
Just updated my résumé.
And the world is a slightly better place, momentarily.
Huh, not for their users I’d say.
Fun fact, my mobile carrier also was/is toasted LMAO.
Nature is healing
I dont get it
The nerdy looking dude in the gif touched grass. “Wasted” is from a video game (GTA?) screen shown each time you died. So from this we can infer that our terminally-online protagonist, Hiroshi, did not survive the attempt to disconnect, even if only briefly.
I guess it is just some nerdy dude. At first glance, I took it for Sue Perkins.
Doesn’t help that it rendered as a whopping 3 pixels for me
Lookup downdetector, almost all are flatlines.
Sap is also doing silly rn. Im gonna take a smoke break lol
Someone is having a very bad day

Looks like it may have been AWS or something. All kinds of services were down a moment ago. Guess thats what happends when everything is on major cloud services.
Google have their own data centres (and cloud) so it may be something more in the connectivity area.
Maybe, I would expect redundancy. But ultimately I have no clue. I just remember the last time AWS went down. It seemed that a majority of the sites that I used daily were down all in one go.
Yeah, they definitely host an unhealthy amount of the internet.
Pouring one out for the SREs at Meta
What’s a SRE?
Site reliability engineer
Google terminology leaking its way into mainstream
Meta has SRE. Not just a Google thing, even if Google invented it.
Someone is having a really bad day today. I wonder if your phone dies when you get a certain number of pages or push notifications
Fun story. I had a flip phone years ago and you could have multiple recipients to a single text. And if the text was multiple pages, it would split into several texts. And you could resend already sent texts.
So one time I put in my girlfriend’s phone number in all 20 recipient slots. I then filled the text to the max size, though I don’t remember how many it split into. I then resent it over and over. This all took like 2 or 3 minutes.
Her phone was sending notifications over and over for the entire rest of the day. I’d guess at least 8 hours, probably more.
Hopefully they won’t need to cut their way into the data center this time.
I’m gonna blame Russia.
