I bet somewhere there's a "Do you agree to the Terms and Conditions?" dialog without any Terms and Conditions and no one knows it
So that wasn't entirely awful. A couple people stopped by for a bit and I had a fun time.
If you were one of those people thanks <3.
I'm doing the thing. First time streaming with Twitch, but if you want to see me die on pluto in warframe & hang out that'd be cool

It's the weed day.
This is huge. Russia’s unelected government is afraid of communications it can’t monitor, so it tries to shut down Telegram. Telegram moves to AWS and Google Cloud. Russia BLOCKS both services.
Almost nothing works in Russia’s internet right now. Banks, shopping, small business. https://twitter.com/ow/status/986160447152885760 … #nextcloud
Just one person for #followfriday today: @Are0h, whose voice I always appreciate in the fediverse even (especially) when saying things that push me out of my privileged comfort zone. Also just a very kind individual!
Plus they recently converted from Mongodb to Postgres so they're clearly heading down the right technical path ;)

These are reasons why CloudFlare and other CDNs are bad for the internet as a whole and I'd agree with all of them.
But they aren't reasons why someone needing a CDN/DDOS protection shouldn't choose CloudFlare.
CloudFlare is shitty and abused by lots of nefarious people, but so are a lot of web services (URL shorteners are more trouble than they're worth)
@eladhen
I'm still not clear on how Ubuntu tarnishes the Linux experience. Since you went on to suggest an Ubuntu flavor I'm assuming this is about problems in vanilla Ubuntu.
Even seeing problems (such as switching back to Xorg) I'm very optimistic about Ubuntu 18.04 and the Linux desktop experience for the average consumer in the coming years.
Why is it so cold.
Spring should have sprung.
I'm blaming Punxsutawney Phil!

The way Cloudflare handled switter.at's suspensions sounds like someone high up in Legal or even a C-level exec pressed the panic button, the "Get this stuff off our service immediately" and that overrode any customer service concerns about suspending a customer with no prior notice.
@stevelord
The daily stormer did open a whole can of worms, but that's not really related to what happened with Switter.
Cloudflare has always removed illegal content (copyright, trademark, CSAM) and worked with regular hosting companies in those cased.
The only thing that happened here was content that was illegal was getting purged. This isn't surprising considering Switter was designed explicitly to get around SESTA/FOSTA
@Shotagonist
Such as?
