It’s cringey and awful

The term for subs on Lemmy is burrows, since that’s where lemmings live.

Absolutely not.

Mid 40s in the UK. Driven manual all my life up until a few months ago when I had a stroke leaving me with reduced use of my left leg and arm. Swapped to an auto and wow it just makes the driving experience so much simpler

The other big one that usually requires downtime is network. You may not be touching your game servers all that often but if you need to do a major OS upgrade on a load balancer or switch, that’s going to mean everything behind it loses connectivity - and unless you’re talking one of the big hitters like WoW, they’re probably not funding redundant dual network paths to allow you to take it down without downtime

Changing your DNS doesn’t stop your ISP seeing what sites you visit unless you use a VPN. DNS just resolves an address to an IP. Your requests (with destination IP attached) will still pass through their network gear and be able to be logged should they wish to.
