While AWS is down I'm sitting here with my $4 Hetzner VPS, self-hosted landing pages and even self-hosted Supabase pulling 100k+ Steam requests per day without a single interruption.
People have no idea how powerful it is to be in control of your own infrastructure.
I could literally boot up an old PC with one of the daily backups and continue to run uninterrupted even if Hetzner went down.
Might make a guide for this at some point. Everything is way too centralized today.
I just want to learn about some cool history facts, great mysteries, and see cute animal videos. It’s like innocence has been killed. I can’t be the only one who just wants to chill and be without constantly being forced to think about sex.
It’s so incredibly annoying, how sex is pushed to us everywhere. I can't browse the internet anymore without constantly seeing sexual content, whether it is direct or then some political like questioning sexuality itself. Sorry had to vent felt frustrated..
“If you put red ants & black ants in a glass jar, nothing happens. But if the jar is shaken, the two sets of ants will fight each other. But the real enemy is the person who shook the jar. The same is true in society. Before we fight each other, we must ask: Who shook the jar?”
we live in the real life silicon valley comedy:
- two young prodigal hacker/founders are at each others throats building competing AI pin startups
- both startups are named Friend
- one spends 1.8M to buy the Friend domain and launches on international friendship day
- the other responds with a diss rap video
This man gave you Reddit, RSS, Markdown, helped stop early attempts to censor the web (that are now winning) and freed academic journals for researchers.
And they killed him for it.
A crime that has never been answered for and never will be
The Euro is dying.
Since its inception in 1999, the Euro has lost 40% of its value.
To put this into perspective: 1 Euro today can only purchase about 60% of what it could back in 1999.
