I hate what the hacker ethos of “routing around bad legislation” has become “routing around all legislation.”

Hastings also was asked about Netflix’s decision to remove an episode of “Patriot Act With Hasan Minhaj” in Saudi Arabia after the government threatened the company over a segment in which the comedian criticized Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (aka MBS) and the regime’s role in the murder of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

“We’re not in the news business,” Hastings said. “We’re not trying to do ‘truth to power.’ We’re trying to entertain… We don’t feel bad about [pulling the ‘Patriot Act’ episode in Saudi Arabia] at all.”

first time in my life I was relieved to see a site down for maintenance

I wouldn’t buy that for a dollar!

Yep, my Firefox mobile hasn’t updated yet either, gonna see if there’s an update I can grab.

This kicks ass. I hate that my country is ruining itself and parts of the world with pointless weapons and war… but I am glad that the United States’ self-defeating idiocy has the whole world turning away from oil.

It’s one of the features I love about Njalla for domains the most.

You don’t even need a ddns service because they support updating through simple https calls.

So I have a super tiny script that basically checks the WAN IP through ipify, then checks that against the routers current WAN IP, and if they match it does nothing and ends, but if its different, it sends out a curl with the new IP. I have it running every few minutes in a cronjob. It’s actually technically my service with the most uptime according to healthchecks.io.
