Lol quite poetic indeed: Titanic was considered to be "unsinkable" and OceanGate's CEO said "security is a waste".

They both got a hard reality check from nature and physics.

If it really happened the way he says it did (implosion at 3,500 ft when they were travelling down to 13,000 ft) this sub was in no shape or form suited for this dive.

It's not confirmed at this point as I understand and Cameron also disclosed it as a rumor in a recent interview on Youtube.

Just read about Stockton Rush's (CEO and "pilot" of the sub, presumed dead) views about security:

It's just amazing how an aircraft pilot, a guy with an ivy-league degree in aerospace engineering can have such twisted ideas about standards, regulations, and security in general.

No way in hell would I have signed up for this haphazard dive.

I wish the world was as enthusiastic about saving hundreds of women and children as it is about saving 5 fucking millionaires or billionaires.

Thanks for that. TIL I liked "Boomer shooters".

The quote goes even further I guess:

In fact, forget about Reddit!

If you have trouble remembering git commands for CLI have a look at the tool tldr:

https://man.archlinux.org/man/tldr.1.en

For example if you need to remember how to use the branch command you could look it up with

tldr git branch

which would give you an overview on the most popular use cases.

And in case you don't already know: You may want to use the history search tool of your shell by hitting CTRL-r and then for example typing branch. You'd get a list of past commands you have used containing branch that you can flip through by repeatedly hitting CTRL-r.

At this point I'd take bets on when the first news stories like "Republicans declare any *-sexual relations immoral". Homo, hetero, cis, LGBTQ+, asexual, metrosexual, whatever. Anything regarding penises, vaginas, and anything "inbetween".

It cannot be that far in the future anymore.

Correct, especially with all the dynamic loading and rendering websites nowadays do measuring in a web browser is waaay better than doing ICMP/ping requests or even httping requests.

It depends on what you are trying to measure ofc but ICMP/ping does not tell you almost anything about how fast a website is.

[–] MaxPower@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

ping nowadays is overrated anyway. If a server responds to ICMP and how fast it does it does not really say much about "how fast" a website is. It only tells you that a) ICMP requests and responses are not blocked and b) how fast ICMP requests get answered.

That's it. It may not even tell you that a website is online because a load balancer may be responding to the ICMP request while the hosts behind it are offline.

People value ping responses way too highly.

httping may be a better tool to measure "how fast" a website is responding.

"I love the poorly educated"

They sure do. Dumb people vote for dumb candidates.

Well I liked Mullvad because they genuinely supported privacy.

I'm using port forwarding to access by server by SSH. I guess not anymore :/
