    It depends. I've seen some shit on cheap bare metal providers, including getting ARP poisoned on Online.net. Hetzner has been great overall. They've been very very helpful in docum…

    Running Kube on their cloud servers? Well have fun with that, the "vCore" is a very inconsistent unit unless you get their dedicated core servers. I moved back to Hetzner Bare Meta…

    This goes both ways. Don't remember specifics, but contributors trying to "revoke" their license to destroy a FOSS project is about as common as a company trying to use your contri…

    I am sort of a kubernetes person at work, and I just wasted 3 hours trying to get a cluster up with Rancher. Everything worked fine, except somehow the network started isolating na…

    That's not the point. The point is that when white people say they're "for meritocracy" they're full of shit. Not on purpose, but still full of shit.
