  • You can still check the alt text in clients for sighted people. Imo it's idiomatic to only put alt text in the image field, no need to complicate stuff. If you want to see the alt text, use a client that supports it.

  • DNS is a system used to convert a domain name (for example google.com) into an IP address. When something goes wrong with your DNS resolver (that's the server your device contacts to convert domains into IPs), it'll appear as if your internet connection isn't working, and DNS is often the cause of such an error.

  • Lucky enough, I am C++ Developer

  • I'm a trans woman and recently started learning Haskell :3

    It's fun, I plan to eventually rewrite Lemvotes in Haskell (backend with Servant, frontend in Miso) as an exercise (and because the current codebase sucks and I didn't know what I was doing when I wrote it)

  • Cloudfare outage post mortem

  • Wow, bunny is second in query speed, just below cloudflare. Impressive!

    Family Email w/ Custom Domain

    Jump

  • I can't recommend Purelymail enough. Cheap (10€ per year), and you can have as many accounts and inbox space as you. You can also connect as many domains as you want.

  • Alberta invokes notwithstanding clause on trio of transgender laws

    Jump

  • The focus of much of the legal debate surrounds the law on health care. It prohibits doctors from providing treatment such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy to those under 16 for purposes of gender reassignment.

    This is so cruel. They even banned fucking puberty blockers, which are essentially harmless and completely reversible. "For the purposes of gender reassignment", of course, only cis people deserve gender affirming healthcare.

    A second law makes changes in schools. It requires parents to be notified if a child under 16 wants to change their name or pronoun at school for reasons related to their gender identity. LGBTQ+ advocacy groups are also challenging that on constitutional grounds, but for now it remains in force.

    This will put children with unsupportive parents in danger. These pieces of shit are putting kids in danger under the pretense that they're "keeping them safe".

    “We cannot and will not take the risk of a child undergoing medical, hormonal or surgical interventions that could permanently limit or eliminate choices they may want to make as an adult to have children of their own one day,” Smith said.

    Of course, all they care about is that people can keep having children. Classic.

  • Cloudfare outage post mortem

    Jump

  • I'm lazy and use cloudflare, so that checks out. Due to recent events I'll switch to another CDN, the centralization of the internet is very concerning.

  • XKCD Dependency (revised)

    Jump

  • Cloudflare went down today and took half of the internet with it. How does one company have that much impact? Do you think that's concerning?

    Jump

  • Yes, the increasing centralization of the internet is concerning, and the fact that companies have been vibecoding stuff increases the chances of stuff going wrong. And quality control and testing aren't a priority anymore, it's as if they're just chasing short term profits. Oh wait, they are.

    Imma switch my services to Bunny CDN to decrease my reliance on a huge service. And its Slovenian, so that's pretty nice.
