I just had a chicken & avocado sandwich (reduced as near closing time.) Am I now a woke millenial instead of a boomer? What a page snipe. 18. We all know what that means. Yes, time for Anthrax... 'm metal thrashing maaaddd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYMx45S29Uw (PS I do know this is a cover of Alice Cooper) I saw Anthrax do this live at the 3rd loudest ever gig (at the time) at Hammersmith Odeon back in the day. (With Metal Church and Crimson Glory). Ed Oh well, the set listing for that gig 15th Feb 1987 doesn't show them playing that one, I'm sure they did, but maybe I've mixed it up with another time I saw them. God I was 26 then, look at me now, old as the hills. Ed2 now I'm proper sad because my Facebook friends cannot see the benefits of my full on anthrax retrospective now ongoing chez moi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3ta5ahB-6w Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 21:16 on Oct 4, 2021 |

Failed Imagineer posted:Song is forever ruined for me by this Freaks and Geeks scene Never seen that. Reminds me of school when the 'trendy' teachers would break out their guitars and make us all sing kumbaya or something. At my home gig I've branched into Megadeth right now. My sister phoned to see if I could get on facebook/messenger/whatsapp - she lives 24/7 on them. Surprised she remembered how to phone.

It looks like all the devices infected with apps that hook into facebook and harvest data are now effectively ddossing the internet as they repeatedly bombard the servers trying to connect to home base. Yer grans candy crush game is bringing down the world.

Negative DNS results are typically not cached (for long), only positive lookups are. That means all recursive DNS servers are serving a lot more traffic than normal.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Wonder if there's any truth to this? Nah, a DDoS big enough to take out Facebook would blot out the sun. This is people misunderstanding (deliberately or not) the ripple effects of them disappearing into an internet black hole - to a naive network or security engineer (or a dishonest seller of network or security services) the fact that the sheer *amount* of people (and things) trying to hammer at Facebook and their services would look like a DDoS, but it's going to be orders of magnitude less traffic than they would normally see going there - the fact that it's all in one direction is what makes it look like a DDoS.

Sounds like Nick Clegg should be fired. It is pretty funny that I went to bed 4 hours ago (I've gotten really into sleeping in shifts during the pandemic, early evening until 10 or 11 & then up again for hours) and Facebook is still hosed. Hope the Zuck is taking it well.

Nick Cleggs job is to literally go out and apologise for stuff while looking sad and sincere but not actually giving a gently caress, so he'll be earning his corn tomorrow I guess. I've barely noticed the outage other than WhatsApp not working. I'd be in infinitely more distress if the forums were down.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:I was just wondering does anyone know any homeless shelter for transwomen? I have several pairs (some new) of UK size 10 (Eu size 43/44) shoes to give away. I tried gumtree and facebook to no avail. I thought maybe I could send them to a homeless shelter and transwomen are more likely to have my size feet. Alternatively, if this is a seriously bad idea, please say! I'm a trans woman with size 10 feet, I saw earlier you were offering these to any takers here. If it's not too late, could I have them?

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/oct/05/priti-patel-to-enable-police-to-stop-disruptive-protesters-going-to-demos Guardian I know, I'm trying to stop checking it out of habit - but anyway this is just more stuff about the Tories eliminating the right to protest and also some stuff about alcohol detecting and GPS tags added on. I don't know how I'm even supposed to react to this because it really loving bothers me. It's so loving evil and unnecessary in a way I thought the Tories were too flippant to care about - and you know once this is locked in, it'll just get more restrictive and expansive. People are so isolated and fragmented it's a miracle mass protest still occurs. Their complete dominance isn't enough, they also have to kill the ghost of the idea that the working class have any ability to express themselves without directly breaking the law. If you can't disrupt anything without going to jail, who gives a poo poo what you think? Has labour even had anything to say about this?

this is just my conjecture but you're seeing this stuff around the world and I think governments are just getting ready for constant protesting as the climate and inequality gets worse. The real kicker is the implication that they are not planning on doing anything about the causes. They're just giving themselves the means to lock us down. I expect disruptive and violent climate protesters to get hit with tougher and tougher sentences much like the woman who damaged the pipeline in America. They're going to make examples of people.

And the XR stuff that’s going on at the minute will make it even easier to pass public opinion, in a way that other types of protest wouldn’t provide such handy cover for.
