I yoloed from a year old version up to the latest, it was fine.

It's both ways. They effectively break that link and become isolated from each other.

I think she's kinda like Harris in the US. She probably would have done a good job, but is too similar to (and tainted by) the person before. It's not worth the risk right now to choose her and lose to the cons.

Make sure to install a floor drain in case it floods. Put one under your laundry and dishwasher too if you can.

Not really

Can try home depot style stores, you'll find stuff more aimed at construction.

Oh that is cool, I didn't see that page.

Check Costco. They sell carts like that since people use them for their grocery runs.

Oh that's interesting. Thanks.

With an sre team sure, but there's a difference between the amount of infra I'm willing to setup vs what I want to maintain and be responsible for on my own. I could set this up, spend money on VPS and have something that's difficult for anyone else to maintain.

Or I could just turn on cloudflare.

I'm am expert with all the tech you mentioned, but I'm trying to avoid a complex setup where if I got hit by a bus my fellow admins would struggle to maintain things.

I've actually used them at an old day job and quite liked them. I don't know if they still let you provide your own vcl, but it was a great feature.

If we were paying for something, then yeah they'd be on my short list.

Edit: huh. Interesting.... https://www.fastly.com/fast-forward

Yeah we're at about 10mbit on a 50mbit commit off a 1 gig feed.

Im starting to dislike nginx these days, varnish is nicer as a caching frontend. We were on ovh before, fuck that.

If there was a good Canadian cdn I'd be all over it, but there isn't.

Lemmy.ca does about 2tb a week in traffic, 1tb of which is absorbed by Cloudflare caching images / static resources. We do have the server / network capacity to serve directly, but at the cost of reduced performance and higher latency for users. Our server is in Vancouver, if you're in Montreal you could expect images to load slower for you since they'd no longer be cached locally once one user viewed it. Another advantage is that if we ever do get DDOS'ed, it becomes possible to manage and deal with in a reasonable amount of time + energy.

I'm open to discussing dropping them, but we don't pay them anything as we're just on a free plan. We're just costing them a little money, we don't even register our domains through them.

Oh look, another spike in lemmy registrations.

Legit question here, what would you like to see in there?

Personally I'm not clear on where the responsibilities of federal vs provincial are on housing, so I don't even know what we should be demanding.

Fuck that, stay strong, keep our counter tariffs going. Donald will just keep changing his mind and pushing us around otherwise.

No, From is the new Lost. It's so good though, I highly recommend it.

They require software updates for every mission, that are distributed from the US.

You can probably fly / use it without those, but you lose all the advanced command & control features

They didn't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helios_Airways_Flight_522

Happens in small planes too https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-65814758

I'm tempted to watch but it'll probably be 90 minutes of him rambling.
