@knack @sjtrny it’s true - there’s nice IPKVM stuff too, it’s basically what Hetzner does

@knack @sjtrny only downside is that I think the noise may genuinely annoy neighbours? At night you’d hear a server squealing in the apartment next door I reckon

@europlus the people that live there are blessed and they probably don’t even know it!

someone posted a photo of a Philly cheesesteak sausage from Aldi - I’m sure it tastes good but damn that’s unappealing on a plate

@skribe @harrym when I think of the greatest repeated, daily risk to my life, it's a 37 year old in a Ford Ranger more than a 15 year old on a scooter

@sjtrny I know right? I can rent it out and just tell the tenant “never mind that buzzing it’s normal also free heating!”

For anyone following at home - the only location with 2000/2000 support (and presumably 5000/5000 in the near future) is 245 City Rd in Southbank, a residential building. Good place to live if you want extremely fast internet

I am happy to report that the traffic we get from OpenAI has once again doubled over the past month. We now block ~ half a million requests per day.

As of 23 January, Facebook IP addresses have also started at around 100k requests per day. That may be courtesy of a change to one of the AWS-managed rulesets though.
