Just dropping this here for those who don't know about it. It solves most of my CLI dependencies.

Not a general pure image sharing site, but one dedicate for wallpapers (and more) for your personal device (ie your phone), but Zedge did/still provides sharing UGC (user generated content) and as well a premium service for artists.

They are in the margins of positive income at least last I checked.

On: Writing your own search engine is hard (2004)

For those interested in search engines, recommend checking out Vespa.ai[1][2] - the engine behind several features at Yahoo.

Sad Internet.

On: My Second Brain – Zettelkasten

[Rockjodd]

Have you tried Zettlr? https://www.zettlr.com/features

[smetj → Rockjodd]

I've been using it. I believe it's the most promising app of them all however it's still being heavily developed though.

On: Cloudflare was down

[Rockjodd]

For people who reports this is down, which country are you in? Because all the reported sites works flawless from Norway (Europe) :-)

[Fabricio20 → Rockjodd]

Brazil here, basically everything down.

I noticed a lot of packet loss to 1.1.1.1, not an outright "outage", maybe they were rolling a deployment?

Edit: Looks like a deployment to me (looking at the logs I could see cascading traces, so it took down one DC and the other started responding - increased latency - and then down, etc..), gonna be an interesting post-mortem!

East Coast USA here. Any cloudflare site is unreachable, and 1.1.1.1 is giving me massive latency and packet loss :)

[joshstrange → Rockjodd]

US here, everything reported that I've checked is down. My Cloudflare sites are down as well.

[mercer → Rockjodd]

I'm in Holland but everything came back up just now, so maybe you picked the exact right moment to check?

[Rockjodd → Rockjodd]

I put my bet on some peering fuckups, causing outrages since people are having packet loss etc.

"Update - This afternoon we saw an outage across some parts of our network. It was not as a result of an attack. It appears a router on our global backbone announced bad routes and caused some portions of the network to not be available. We believe we have addressed the root cause and are monitoring systems for stability now. Jul 17, 22:09 UTC" - https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/

Germany, everything down.

[looperhacks → akuji1993]

Interesting ... Germany here, too, but I didn't see any down sites

[Filligree → Rockjodd]

Ireland here, and it's all down.

[rvnx → Rockjodd]

Estonia, everything working fine

On: GCP to introduce an additional charge for publicly addressed VM instances

[Rockjodd]

We still want it to be promoted to beta, so it is actually available in GKE and other cloud vendors.

Alpha level cluster in GKE gets wiped every 30 days, nothing you want to run any production workload on.

Of course you have the option of self-hosting..

[jasonvorhe → Rockjodd]

If you can't move your workloads to a new cluster within 30 days, you should reflect on how you're using Kubernetes.

sig-network is working hard to get dual stack support in.

It was supposed to be targeting 1.16, but looks like it will be in 1.17 according to https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/508#issuec...
