Daily Tech News 21 June 2022

Top Story

  • Step One: Protect your critical web sites and services by putting them behind a globally distributed, highly redundant, fault tolerant content distribution network.

    Step Two: You'll still go down but now you have someone to blame.



    This outage took out the sites we run at work, the sites I use to do my work, and about a quarter of the news sites I visit to compile this daily post.

    I'm not sure just how widespread the effects were, because one of the things that went down was Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 DNS service. (The Verge)

    So anyone using that service - including automated monitoring services - would have seen the entire internet go dark.

    Downdetector shows Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Twitter all affected, despite at least three of those companies running their own content distribution networks. But that might be in part because the monitoring systems went down.


Tech News

  • Threadripper Pro 5000 chips are coming to retail. (Serve the Home)

    Prices start at around $2500 - there are cheaper models for OEMs but they're not going to be available in the retail market - and it should show up just in time to be eclipsed by the new 4th generation Epyc server CPUs.

    But if you want a workstation for CPU-based tasks - video production, for example, or engineering - Threadripper is still the best thing out there. Intel has some new high-end chips on the way but no launch dates or pricing as yet.


  • Or you could just not use it: Disabling notifications on Nextdoor takes 130 separate clicks. (Imgur)

    Not using it takes zero clicks. It's like a smile only better.


  • Those gluten-free donuts - these ones - are now available for online order; at first they were in-store only. They're actually cheaper imported to Australia, on the freezer shelf, with sales tax added, than listed on that website. Somehow. Got more coming Thursday.

    I can only get the simple glazed donuts locally, but that's okay, they would be my first choice anyway,

Posted by: My Life is Insanity at June 21, 2022


***
I always have nicknames for my cats. Chekov was Tubby or Chubby, Wolf was The Great Black Beast, Arizona was His Lordship, Tatiana was The Wonder Siberian. Little elderly Oreo was Princess Piddlepuss: She had occasional bladder issues, but she was not a young cat when she came to live with me.

Right now Stirling is being quite good, sitting on the cushion next to me and purring solidly. I wish I didn't have to lock him out of the bedroom on work nights, but he'd wake me at 2 am if I didn't. Maybe as he grows and settles down a bit, say in 2-3 years?

The cops in the town where the school I taught at knew the building layout completely and had conducted drills involving the police, with the entire faculty and student body going into lockdown. There's no excuse for a little cooperation between schools and the police. I know, I know... it might cut into the anti-police indoctrination and drag queen story hour.

I don't wanna hear about red flag laws that the left would certainly use as a tool for intimidation.

101 At least the cat had the good grace to yack on the laminate floor where it was "easy" to clean up. Apparently she's been eating grass. Must have a hairball.

Or a couple. That cat sheds non-stop. And she's not a long hair variety. Just a fat tuxedo black tabby.

102 Only on Juneteenth murder in the city near here. A 16 year old boy. At least the news called him a boy. I suppose that's racist. Unless he started out as a girl. Then it's ok to call a boy a boy.

105 Cancer:

As the Sun moves into your birth sign today you must decide what is of most importance to you and do it to the exclusion of everything else. Don't listen to what other people tell you, listen only to your own inner voice. It knows what you need.

117 Good morning!

Seen at Anonymous Conservative just now:

Rubbish bins in Sweden have started groaning in pleasure and making sexually suggestive comments when trash is inserted as part of a new initiative to prevent littering. We have now progressed past anything they could have imagined to put in the movie Idiocracy.

That is a good thing your teacher did. We don't do folk songs in church ,but I always explain the background of the hymns- who wrote it, if that's known and what the situation was which prompted it.
