Edinburgh Airport is also down, suspending all flights after an "IT issue with our air traffic control provider". Not sure if this is coincidental, but the timing is rather suspicious!
Maybe the little plane icons on the ATC screens are a PNG hosted on some Cloudflare domain.

That blog post made it to the front page of HN and my site did not go down. Nor did any DDoS network take the site out even though I also challenged them last time by commenting that I would be okay with a DDoS. I would figure out a way around it.

Would you want me to:

- Let you know why my existence means you can't afford RAM anymore
- Help you learn sustenance farming so that you can feed your family in the coming AI future?
