I thought about it. You’re right, I think. But even had I not thought about it, you’d still be right.

Men are people too

The line is “do you need to work ever to maintain at least the current living standard”

The answer would be “no” for most europeans. Cost of living in asia is around 400EUR a month, with a higher living standard. Most europeans could achieve that easily.

In Belgium lower income people also tend to vote more extreme. It’s even shown that whenever extreme right parties grow, it’s usually because they convinced people that previously voted extreme left.

People who vote for the socialist party are typically retired or work for the government in some capacity.

Most people are a bit of both, no?

We kill animals at their peak, and harvest them for meat.

That’s not the case. There’s even different words to the meat depending on the age the animal got slaughtered. There’s no single “peak”.

How come you don’t need them? It’s about the change compared to daily rythm. To you that might look different.

Would you walk a bear or would the bear walk you?

You probably have a very vivid imagination? I’m the reverse, I have no visual imagination at all, and miss part of my memory.

It’s important I think. Day-to-day I live quite a lot in nature, so to change my mind space I do city trips. I find a concert I like in a city not too far, not too near. Then plan 2 or 3 days in that city.

This year I will have done 2 such holidays.

Is there some way to self host what cloudflare does?

Your domain will always have to be rented through a 3rd party. Cloudflare is (or was?) one of the better choices for that.

Cloudflare does other things as well, most notably it can acts as a proxy: an inbetween between your server and the users. This inbetween can be useful against DOS attacks, blocking of bots, etc. But for most self hosters that part is not necessary. It’s a toggle in cloudflare’s DNS dashboard: I think you’d want it to say DNS only.

Another thing cloudflare can do is tunneling. It’s useful for when your server is behind a firewall or NAT or double NAT you can’t or don’t want to configure. You’d probably know if you use this, so I assume you don’t?

Is there any meta analysis on these major outages?

They seem to be occuring more and more regularly.

Friend send me a PJ Harvey song. Why o why did it take me this long to discover her work!

Hmm, I’ll rephrase. I fail to see the connecting thought between the list of random thoughts?

I struggle to see what question you’re asking?

Depending on 3rd parties is a pain in the ass

Cannabis indica

Yep. Instant block for me :)

Awesome selfhosted lists https://github.com/heyform/heyform as a possibility.

And a second one
