Yuri’s revenge isn’t even close to being mediocre tho, it was an amazing addon for an already amazing game.

Congrats to all the execs, you’ve completely ruined the tech industry.

No - I think they made it (involuntary) better by forcing people into looking into self hosting everything and taking control over their own infrastructure.

Yes. Spotify got one aswell, and on my girlfriends phone, her default photo app provided her with a rewind that showed her certain topics she seems to enjoy photos of, in her case “cats” (containing plenty of images of my dog).

The only thing why this is still the case is because microsoft is bundling everything in a single subscription and is also providing you with software that automatically keeps everything updated.

The software is shit, but companies using the entire ecosystem probably save money. Sadly.

Honestly, having ~1.3% of paying users is fine considering they are using all the other users as free learning material for their models.

Terraform and Puppet. Not very simple to get into, but extremely powerful and reliable.

How do you notify yourself about the status of a container?

I usually notice if a container or application is down because that usually results in something in my house not working. Sounds stupid, but I’m not hosting a hyper available cluster at home.

Is there a “quick” way to know if a container has healthcheck as a feature.

Check the documentation

Does healthcheck feature simply depend on the developer of each app, or the person building the container?

If the developer adds a healthcheck feature, you should use that. If there is none, you can always build one yourself. If it’s a web app, a simple HTTP request does the trick, just validate the returned HTML - if the status code is 200 and the output contains a certain string, it seems to be up. If it’s not a web app, like a database, a simple SELECT 1 on the database could tell you if it’s reachable or not.

Is it better to simply monitor the http(s) request to each service? (I believe this in my case would make Caddy a single point of failure for this kind of monitor).

If you only run a bunch of web services that you use on demand, monitoring the HTTP requests to each service is more than enough. Caddy being a single point of failure is not a problem because your caddy being dead still results in the service being unusable. And you will immediately know if caddy died or the service behind it because the error message looks different. If the upstream is dead, caddy returns a 502, if caddy is dead, you’ll get a “Connection timed out”

Not paying a financial institution might be the worst advice you could give. That’s like not paying the mafia.

Don’t take a student loan in the first place.

“In the twilight of bourgeois decadence, even the most trivial ornaments of culture shall be seized by the ruling class, for in latestage capitalism the elites will weaponize every spectacle - yes, even the egirls - to distract the proletariat from its chains.” - Karl Marx

One of the few use cases where I see AI being great.

Never heard of that tbh, I would expect that they just seal the wound with plaster or something lmao. I won’t doubt it tho, medicine is wild.

Even the oldest, sickest pet will still make an effort to keep themselves alive however they can: eating, drinking water, moving out of the way of danger, etc.

That’s wrong. Especially old cats are very prone to just not eat when they’re old and sick.

Eating a cigarette isn’t going to outright kill you, some worm having a happy meal in your stomach might, or at least incapacitate you enough to get killed by something - or someone.

There’s lots of things in life that you shouldn’t do, but can help you in an emergency. There’s chlorine tablets - not exactly healthy, but can help with gut bacteria in a pinch. Cauterizing a wound is fucking painful and is not recommended by modern physicians - but it beats bleeding out or dying to an infection.

Keep in mind that those are not “DIY at home” kind of tips, but "You got shot in the middle of nowhere and you’r close to dying. You will also find similar tips in most other army handbooks.

This is what too much windows does to your brain kids.
