Sure, there’s alternatives: Aws, Google cloud and Azure all have their own cdns if you want to use those

It’s not that you’re wrong. It’s more that I don’t understand what you’re proposing as an alternative. To add to the comments here pointing out that that’s how CDNs work: for many designs of website, the CDN essentially is the website, being served from a cache by the provider. Even when this isn’t the case, you would normally have a load balancer in front of whatever was serving your website so that if you need to swap out the server for maintenance upgrade, etc. you don’t need to tell who your visitors to go to a different address. In that case, your certificate would be attached to load balancer rather than the server behind it.
If this was a 1990s and I were trying to run my own server on my own hardware in my bedroom, you might have a point, but please explain how you would implement an alternative in any meaningful way today.
2·30 days agoIf you follow the links, you’ll see that it’s essentially a new name for/ release of CBL-Mariner. from the GitHub readme:
CBL-Mariner is an internal Linux distribution for Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure and edge products and services.
6·3 months agoOn checking: You’re correct that the royal mail and the post office are separate organisations. They split in 2012. At the time of the majority of the active development of the horizon scandal, they were the same organisation however.
I would still want to apply the same test - not just demonstrating a notional or paper loss, but that something has actually been stolen and acquired by some other party. This was one of the signal failures with the horizon scandal: that it was simply a bookkeeping error and they were unable to show beyond that any theft or loss on their part or gain by another party.
Sorry but at this point my money is on the Post Office being incompetent and dishonest. They have form given the ongoing Horizon scandal.
- This is a newly introduced system
- There’s no evidence it has ever worked correctly
- I’m not seeing any corroborating evidence, e.g. people being prosecuted for making or selling forged stamps
- I’m not seeing an explanation offered as to why such forgery is only happening now as opposed to before barcodes were introduced
151·4 months agoThe article is from the guardian ( a reputable UK newspaper) reporting on an article by ‘Which?’ a UK consumer magazine with some very specific standards. The Which? Press release has citations.
I’d check that you’re actually installing the most appropriate package. For instance on Ubuntu there’s
kid3which is a MP3 tag application that will pull in the entire k desktop environment. Or you can installkid3-qtwhich packages its own version of those dependencies and doesn’t pull an entire desktop environment in if you’re using a non-kde environment.
That’s Marc Benioff, CEO of SalesForce
‘just’? 2018 was five years ago
Link is broken?

4·10 months agoLemmy Connect allows you to filter communities and posts on regex, e.g. I filter (hide) communities containing any of the following:
/politics/, /news/, /memes/, /humor/, /hentai/, /liberal/, /communis/, /conservativ/, /socialis/, /reddit/, /cursed/, /monero/
We keep hearing about ‘productivity’ in this context. Let’s explore that - back in the days when people were 5 days/week in the office, supervisors and managers concentrated on attendance and punctuality. They still could but now they are focusing on being in the office. In both cases these are proxy measures- they don’t directly measure output. What is this ‘productivity’ here? Because the actual verifiable data tells the opposite story
Lemmy Connect has a block instance feature and a regex filter feature in beta
SystemD replaced a variety of Linux init systems across different distros almost 10 years ago now but it is still resented by a significant and vocal section of the Linux community.
Realistically, at this point, non-SystemD distros are of niche interest. Devuan is one of the distros available in that niche
The example of Amazon’s mandated RTO has been much discussed elsewhere as a notable exception to that company’s normally data-driven approach. As I saw commented elsewhere:
“If we have data to show that mandated RTO is more productive then let’s share and act on that. If we’re going with opinions then let’s use mine”
The elephant in the room here is that ‘the data’ doesn’t exist, and for good reason: ‘Productivity’ is subjective in most jobs to begin with, and even where it isn’t Remote vs Office is not a significant variable.
Consider some ‘traditional’ proxy measures for productivity- punctuality and attendance. It’s pretty clear that if someone isn’t at work then they aren’t productive and many employers will put employees through formal processes to dismissal in response. Why don’t we see this being highlighted with remote work? Should be easy and obvious to measure and demonstrate right? Could it be that these things improve with remote work?
Consider also the pandemic impact on remote work and that we are talking about a return. It’s clear that many organisations could manage perfectly well, as they themselves have proved.
Thanks. This is pushing the limits of my current understanding, but unless I’m mistaken, this reads like ‘anyone who chooses may hijack part of your domain at any time if you both use cloudflare’. Sounds crazy.
