@ginatrapani @anildash I have seriously been thinking about this. If you’d like to chat, I’d love to bend your ear.

@uberfuzzy Yeah, that’s not bad for explicitly marked up stuff. A pain for general text. I guess a CMS could take care of it.

@jordansissel “now on Marketplace, let’s do the numbers”

@dustinboston and how would you use that to mark up “it’s” (the single quote in a contraction or possessive)

@marcoarment Afraid it falls under “better CDN”, but @fastly is excellent, with a great API, and good control over expiration.

Steve Ivy

@marcoarment @fastly is not “enterprisey” at all, though they run a lot of huge sites. Good folks too, with great IRC support.

@CharlotteNB @hypatiadotca my wife was labelled HM as an early adult and it still defines her in her mind. Hard to escape that.

@marcoarment oh that 8chan would learn this #threatsareviolence

@voxpuibr Not really. Moved on to other solutions. Still might be an answer but I did not find it.

@robgarth @freebsdgirl also the victim had a whole distribution platform for leverage. What about those who don’t?

@voxpuibr most docker setups focus on one process per container; but you can get around it by making a proc mgr the main proc

@dukeleto @lhawthorn only “seasoned”? Not “rockstar” or “ninja”? Waaaiiiit a minute this sounds like a job a real person could get.

@TheQuinnspiracy I like how “3 ways women have ruined video games” is under “neutral in tone”.

@wilw 8 arms to hold it? Is it tht big?

I’m tentatively looking for feedback on something I’ve started for harassment/doxxing victims, but feeling unqualified is getting in the way
