  • Akamai Connected Cloud. Removing old branding is a chore and you keep some of the old URLs for awhile to not immediately break things, but they have officially changed the name. Linode is no more unfortunately.

  • As an avid grand strategy / 4x gamer, AI cheating is the biggest hurdle that no game ever gets right. When somebody finally figures it out our genre will reach nirvana.

  • The "mid-to-low range PC" already beats both consoles

    But not for the money. The console manufacturers sell their systems at a loss, which is something PC part manufacturers can’t do.

  • The thing about Borderlands 1 and 2 is that their humor fit in very well for their time. They existed through the peak “lol so random” phase of internet humor. That exact same humor, executed with less subtlety, in 2020’s just does not fit in.

    I mean as opposed to what? Windows admins probably still make up the lions share of Sysadmins and I don’t really see how that would stop now.

  • Idaho bar celebrates "Heterosexual Awesomeness Month" with free beer for straight men

  • It also depends on the context. Having that day not be inside pride month would do wonders as well. It would turn the event into an “Also” rather than “Instead of”

  • Oh yes really. You don’t seem genuinely curious at all. You seem like you want to dogmatically defend it. You’re also being purposefully obtuse about it when you say things like

    I do not see how a tiny nothing bar offering free beer in Idaho can be a dog whistle for hatred to gather

    Like if all that was happening was a small bar in Idaho was offering free beer, then it wouldn’t be a dog whistle at all. But that’s not what’s happening, which I think you know full well.

  • I don’t think anyone asked you for your opinion on it. I do remember you asking how it was a dog whistle. Maybe you have a bigger horse in this race than you let on.

  • So you think that it isn’t a dog whistle because… not enough people showed up and too many people are aware of it existing?

  • You don’t see how hosting a non-existent counter-event to the very real pride month is an inherent rejection of said pride month?

  • You clearly don’t understand a single thing about how the internet works and are very confused. Let me help you out.

    how you self host a CDN hosted by fastly?????

    You don’t? The website is what would be self hosted. Not Fastly.

    When did I resolve the Hostname to a DNS record? … I resolved it's domain to an IPv4 address which points entirely to a fastly server

    Right there. You resolved the host record, probably an A record or ANAME for the website (dev.to) into an IPv4 address, using DNS.

    It's not a resource that get's delivered by CDN, it's the whole fucking website they are serving, which is a service they sell and that's not self hosting.

    Here’s what you’re critically misunderstanding about this. Just because you resolve the record for a website and the IP that’s returned belongs to fastly does not mean fastly is hosting the content. You literally haven’t done anything to prove that the website isn’t self-hosted on a computer in some guys garage. You’re making assumptions based on ignorance and using those assumptions to gatekeep self hosting because you don’t even know what you don’t know. It’s very possible that site isn’t self hosted, but so far you haven’t actually found any proof of that like you think you have.

    If you think a domain is a hostname and an IPv4 address is a DNS record

    A domain can have several host records of different types including one at the root of the domain. What you’re resolving isn’t “a domain” it’s a single record for that domain, and its associated IP address is contained in the DNS record. If you’d like to familiarize yourself with this system, try this: https://www.dummies.com/book/technology/information-technology/networking/general-networking/dns-for-dummies-292922/

    It’s clear that you’re a hobbyist with very little understanding of how the internet and self hosting works on a fundamental level and that’s ok. But I recommend instead of wasting your energy being confidently wrong very publicly for the purpose of gatekeeping, you use that energy to learn how these things actually work instead.

  • Amazon, Walmart, and Target finally realize their colossal pricing mistake—now they’re slashing costs to win back customers

  • Not local, but I’ve been shopping at Lidl and Aldi for years and while their prices raised some with inflation, it was negligible compared to bigger grocery stores. I pay less than half at Lidl than I would at another store.

    I’ve been seeing the horror stories of $9 milk for years but I’ve never paid more than $2-3 for. Gallon of milk.
