  1. @mcc Thanks. More than 10 years ago I found that building sufficient reputation to actually discuss things is toil (unless one asks very trivial questions in a new technology, of course - the more trivial the better).

    They can keep what I wrote, but that's that. I've just deleted my profiles at #stackoverflow, #ServerFault, #AskUbuntu, Electrical Engineering and Meta Stack Exchange.

  2. STACK OVER'THROW'

    Similar to #youtube_dl we need sites just for mirroring #stackOverflow sites.

    Now that #CloudGlare have hijacked #serverFault, unix, #stackExchange, #askUbuntu and the entire StackOverflow family of sites, CloudGlare are more able to learn the types of work people might be doing.

    Just more anti-competitive #monopolisation of the dumpster fire we can #theInternet.

    We can't bomb CloudGlare datacenters, so a distributed #selfHealing system is needed.

  3. Open letter to #StackOverflow.com, #askUbuntu, #serverfault, et al,

    Not everyone runs your javascript code to remove your #cookiesDialog. Please add an 'background-color' alpha value of 0.9 so people can see through it, or use a "CSS close button trick".

    Having to 'Inspect Element' > 'Delete Node' to remove the #HTML element is a bother.

    As an aside, non-invasive and non-predatory adverts are fine.

    Thanks
