Now I am confused. Those are not fiber cables. They are regular ethernet ones. No light is in them. If you’re talking about fiber in general, then that would make more sense.

Ok, I figured, but you never know.

Wait really? I’ve never heard this before. How or why does this matter at all?

There have been some really weird shower thoughts lately. What’s going on? It’s not even a thought, just someone’s weird opinion.

“An issue with a routine firewall upgrade resulted in some callers from the Northern Territory, South Australia, Western Australia and New South Wales not being able to make emergency calls. Approximately 600 calls were identified to have failed during the outage, and at least four people who attempted to call Triple Zero during the outage have been confirmed to have died.”

Wow, as someone who works in this exact role of upgrading firewalls i can tell you i have an incredible amount of anxiety when we need to do them because it is a high risk device that has caused issues in the past. Thankfully, our problems would never lead to the deaths of others, and I really can’t imagine how anyone who had a hand in this upgrade feels after hearing that. Plus, with how much attention it has, someone, if not multiple people, are going to lose their jobs. Sadly, after it upgraded, it probably worked fine except for this one or a few policies that controlled this one specific route. So nobody would have been able to tell until complaints rolled in. I dont even work in a huge company, and ours have hundreds of individual policies, so they easily could have a thousand or thousands of policies on 1 firewall. I really wonder what vendor they use.

Instead of just making the comment I would love to see him lay out exactly why and how it would destroy them so we can laugh some more at how ridiculous this is.

I use navidrome for hosting my music but for your ask I was also thinking funkwhale is exactly the thing you were asking for.

So, fake locations of Hamas and put them in a bunch of countries. Isreal can’t resist bombing them. Profit?

I just watched most of it and didn’t even realize it was him. I haven’t seen anything of his in a few years, but I always enjoyed most of the stuff he did.

I love her. She is my dream girl!

Goes to one of the only places in the country that allows sex work, and that’s still not good enough.

Thankfully, we never lost data, but we have had the controller die a few times through the years on a few servers before. Thankfully we had great support and the part was same day delivered to us to replace and the 2nd time was a Dell server which we also get the part same day and a tech to come replace it for us.

We avoided buying servers with this going forward. At this point, we really only have VM’s and only a handful of physical servers anymore, so it’s not even a concern.

I just use a domain name through name cheap, which includes ddns. I cant think of anything else that I do at home that isn’t taken care of locally.

I feel the same way about Bonnaroo. Canceled 3 of the last 6 years is crazy. It’s just a sign of the times more than bad luck, I would say.

Here we go again…

I find it super weird that we continue to use platforms like WhatsApp for stuff like this. It’s failed multiple times, and other systems exist that would prevent screw ups like adding random people to stuff. It should be a closed system, especially since it’s the dam government! You would think they take security seriously.

It’s crazy that it took 4 months to figure it out. What an awful way to die after knowing the place they went to be helped ended up being their death sentence, and there was nothing they could have done.

Did you think of this because of the article about the guy who broke his arm due to his 14.5-inch penis?

That’s why i said i hope it was an accident.

I get that. I just feel like the last few years were even worse than those decades. If you can no longer get food at all due to this, I feel like that would be the point most people say let’s wait on having a baby. I wish them the best, this entire situation is beyond evil.
