But this is also an indictment of the web. Why did we let it basically turn into TV? Where's the outlet for talented young people who want to turn the world upside down, but don't care to sign on to the giant scam that is cryptocurrency? We don't have a good answer for them.

Whoa so people selling jpegs on the internet for thousands of dollars turned out to be a scam? Crazy stuff.

Thanks @aaronpk for the clarification 👍
So OAuth 2.1 is essentially OAuth 2.0 without the naughty bits :)

No one wanted Facebook back.

it's five years' time. you angle-grind open another server cage, welding it closed when you're done. you can't help wonder if there's a better way to do regular scheduled maintenance, but today isn't the day to take on fixing technical debt when everything works just fine.

Ok, seems I may have found my next unnecessary gear item purchase, the @accsoon_cine CineEye system. The hilarious YouTube banter between @GeraldUndone & @PhilipBloom, along with @aaronpk’s analysis has me sold! - You will go FAR with the CineEye 2S Pro! https://youtu.be/viYKCTcG9dg

On the bright side:
Facebook complied with all relevant privacy laws for 6 hours in a row now.

From trusted source: Person on FB recovery effort said the outage was from a routine BGP update gone wrong. But the update blocked remote users from reverting changes, and people with physical access didn't have network/logical access. So blocked at both ends from reversing it.

People making jokes about the Facebook services going down make me sick. Anyone who was using an Oculus headset at the time is currently trapped in VR, and if they die there then they die in real life.

set up your own mailing list, get people's ph number for texting, share everything on your own URL that you own and control and just use the platforms as way to share/link back to your own "platform"

At 15:40 BGP started learning at a geometric rate, at 15:52 UTC it became sentient. At 15:54, thinking that Asimov's 3 laws of robotics sounded like a decent idea, BGPnet shut dowm Facebook.
