I touched grass today.
“i wonder if it’s down for everyone or just me. Let me check the… uh… umm…”
I love how they assume if cloud flare is down that it means you have blocked it lol
Did you try restarting it?
abuseipdb being down hurt like you don’t know
I didn’t think about it before, but any service not handling a
500on the db update code would be having major problems.
Good thing cloudflare is only used on half of all websites, otherwise this would be a major outage! Let’s keep centralizing our services though!
Yeah everyone I know, including myself, got this message today.
Its such a bad idea to centralize the web like this. But its anyway turning into Ai generated shit isnt it, probably will be easier to stop using it once its all AI.
I have this hope, that with all the AI garbage and shit social media algorithms, that there will be some kind of rebirth, where a new type of internet will look somewhat more like it did in the late 90s and early 2000s. Maybe through tor or something similar. It will be niche again, for techies and geeks and smart funny creative people. The normies can stick to Twitter and TikTok and Netflix and whatever corporate garbage. Maybe tor and the fediverse will play roles in this rebirth. Or maybe I’m just being too optimistic.
a new type of internet will look somewhat more like it did in the late 90s
I can remember in 1998 my mom showing my aunt what the internet was. My mom says “You can even chat with the president! I was talking in a chatroom last night with Bill Clinton!”
Then she pulls up www.whitehouse.com.
Now I haven’t been there in decades, but back in 1998 that website was a porn website where they had a bill clinton imposter porn actor, and an imposter porn actress for Hillary and one for Monica.
As soon as the page starts loading, my mom screams, and sends 14 year old me out of the room.
Apperently the night before she went to whitehouse.gov. Which is a TOTALLY different site.
I never did find out what chatroom she really went to, and who she was talking to.
I mean I feel like the fediverse is already unappealing to the “normies” so we kind of have that already to some extent
The fediverse is only unappealing to normies because nobody listens to my ideas! When will society learn that I am the greatest man to ever live in history, and my word should be what generations worship for the rest of their lives?
Anyways…
All you gotta do to make the fediverse popular, is program the fediverse to give you a blowjob everytime you say “I’ve had a rough day!”
And then it cleans your house, and spanks your spouse!
I will accept all of your money now, please!
That would be great, but this new Internet will somehow need to be able to accurately detect and block AI generated content.
My guess is that the new social media will be people physically going to established common areas in their communities and talking to each other in person, face to face, which has it’s pros and cons.
Yeah and what was that “security” kernel module update from Cockblock that bricked like half of the Windows systems on earth like a year ago or something? Single points of failure. Smart.
Crowdstrike. I don’t think that fits the “single point of failure” part.
Well if half of the windows boxes are running it, and they push an update without stages, and that breaks everything, I’d say that fits.
I don’t think Crowdstrike are nearly as large as half.
Has it detected itself?
The detectives don’t detect if you logged on to the service,
Who are ready to hear the worst about their websites disappearance,
We need isdowndetectordown.com.
I was bored so…
Don’t you mean downdetectordowndetector.com?
Wouldn’t it be downdowndetectordetector.com?
Maybe it’s just your browser. We can’t be sure that it’s down until we check it on downdetector.
I see what you did there.
The circle is complete
I saw that too this morning. It’s indicative of the state of modern computing, ie I don’t understand a thing anymore.
yea it’s cloudflare having weird issues. it’s affected tons of websites.
It’s really too bad they have amassed this much power. It’s not what the internet was meant to be.
CloudFlare has pioneered Crap Usability As a Service (CUAAS).
None of it is. Same with all the corporate social media shit.
We know. But this is funny.
Its because cloudflare is having issues. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
Cloudflare is down, yes
Task failed successfully, I guess.
