Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

What if the problem is server side

That's impossible. They don't even have that in space.

Why not? Friggin' surrounded by internet satellites up there, their ping times must be in the minuses

Yeah I bet there is absolutely DNS in space, but that didn't fit the joke, lol.

Mfw my addition to the bit was too camouflaged

Why not, aren't they also handling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timekeeping_on_the_Moon

DNS would be the same logic. Maybe we should even have some higher levels than before. Name.country.moon.planet.star.

Haha yeah, I use outlook at work as a webpage in LibreWolf in Linux, so even with open stuff on my local hardware I can definitely still have outlook issues.

It's easy to set up high-availability for servers running on the ground.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Easy?

And all problems are solved by high availability?
