I started to get 503 errors at 19:36 UTC in my monitoring instance. Opened github.com and looks down to me.

Thanks, I spent the whole day reading this awesome blog, thank you so much for posting it! I loved the articles about their daily life at the Pole, it feels surreal to see an almos…

That was funny, the "Igor is only powered by Ethernet" phrase made me laugh way too much. Also, I did not know about Hacker Typer, I will keep it around :).

I use several sites like ArtStation, Pixiv and aggregators to download new wallpapers for my devices. This used to be an entertaining experience to see all the kinds of beautiful a…

I can use it with a VPN but only if I have an already logged-in session. Without a logged-in session, I can only see error messages which change randomly. Most of them seem to be e…

Even if they have a "real" picture or a credible description that is not good enough. Instead of using an anime character a malicious actor could use an image generator [0], they c…

Seems like AWS did contribute to Redis and has implemented quite a few features [1] and have been partners for quite a while [2]. This could not have any effect for AWS but for oth…

I will keep this script around. Half of the article became "bullshit" and that shows to which kind of public is this information directed to.

I am also lucky, I got a Suica in 2017 and I used it ever since in every trip to Japan! It seems to last quite a while. Maybe I should get an electronic Suica on my iPhone just in …

The clocks' problem is also replicated at the European side of the Atlantic. The current situation is terrible but opinions differ between locking the clock at standard time or day…

To fully control the Black Sea Russia needs control over Ukraine, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania and Georgia (in that order). 3 of them are NATO members [0] and the other two are alread…

Sadly it's not something that has an easy answer. Trying to switch systems peacefully without losing total control of a country is not an easy feat. Even countries that managed to …

And the "crazy nineties" happened shortly after USSR's collapse. Hyperinflation, high levels of poverty, poor law enforcement, gang wars and high unemployment where things the aver…

Different continent (Europe) but something similar happens with my provider (Orange). 3G works perfectly to make phone calls (since VoLTE is a bit of a disaster here, most phones d…

Well, they can just stuff a 5G NB-IoT modem inside of newer TVs, using eSIMs received by OTA (either WiFi or a previous valid eSIM). As long as the manufacturer foots the eSIM bill…

Sorry, I forgot about WW2! I referred to Afghanistan since it was the last big War the soviets fought before their country fell.

First of all, RIP Gorbachev. The Soviet Union ceased to exist in December 26, 1991 [0]. Russia is not the USSR, and it's almost impossible it will never be anything remotely close.…

I still run an old tablet with 5.1, and a phone with 7.1. I've seen 10 year old iPads running on the wild, albeit for basic tasks. Still, this situation makes me quite sad. Why I c…

Well, most extensions seem to work great already. But that requires using either Nightly Firefox (and some hacks) or using a fork (like Iceraven) that loads a different extension l…

It was down for me too but it now works. The website feels fast again but GIT operations still are a bit slower than usual.

Looks like both Core and Android versions were abandoned back in 2016. Oddly enough, the web version was abandoned in 2018. Still, all versions seem to be React based.

The iPad did indeed win. But there is healthy competition from brands like Samsung (I have a Tab A [1] and it works ok-ish), Xiaomi (Mi Pads), Huawei, Kindle Fire... [1] https://en…

Big demonstrations attract all the... Let's call them "different thinking people" around them. Even if demonstrations were done in closed spaces with proper access control some of …

Seems like most people aren't used to huge protests like we used to have in western countries. Real protests (for things like worker's rights, preventing wrongful laws from passing…

As an outsider this movement looks mostly peaceful and legit. Sometimes you have to endure some protests to get an idea/movement through. I respect them and hope their voice is hea…
