For each minute Facebook remains closed, humanity regains a bit of sanity.
Someone needs to make a meme of Facebook with the Evergiven stuck in it. :ever-given:
My Evergiven fetish, my pegging fetish and my hatred for the latest stage of capitalism, finally united. I'll have to use this on myself now before it gets too sweaty :spray-bottle: :spray-bottle: :spray-bottle:
You are correct, comrade. ::deeper-sadness:
I will never post horny on this site again. Even my favorite, the bottom emoji, will stay unused from now on.
"Was just on phone with someone who works for FB who described employees unable to enter buildings this morning to begin to evaluate extent of outage because their badges weren't working to access doors."
lmao, the doors don't even work at Facebook right now
For the sake of my faith in humanity, I've gotta believe those are on different VLANs. Description of the situation from the poor Facebook employee who decided today was the day to post internal company info to /r/sysadmin (RIP)
As many of you know, DNS for FB services has been affected and this is likely a symptom of the actual issue, and that's that BGP peering with Facebook peering routers has gone down, very likely due to a configuration change that went into effect shortly before the outages happened (started roughly 1540 UTC). There are people now trying to gain access to the peering routers to implement fixes, but the people with physical access is separate from the people with knowledge of how to actually authenticate to the systems and people who know what to actually do, so there is now a logistical challenge with getting all that knowledge unified. Part of this is also due to lower staffing in data centers due to pandemic measures.
Yes to facebook going down.
no to this plack turning jnto reddit.
I mean, Reddit but we hold the keys sounds like fun
:wojak-nooo:
You can't ban me for saying we need to purge the Romani! My:freeze-peach: !Hahaha, :ban-hammer: go :bonk:
All current users of this site as of today will be drafted into a red army of mods to defend the revolutionary project against the incoming hordes of reddiactionaries
As somebody once said, "You can take the Chapo out of Reddit, but you can't take the Reddit out of Chapo."
It would be cool if this spawned a national discourse about these tech platforms which have grown "too big to fail," but I doubt it will happen.
But how would we have it? Just yell it out of our windows and hope passing people hear and give us a thumbs up or down?
I was browsing the sysadmin subreddit and it was full of :party-sicko: :party-sicko: :party-sicko:
And thanks to the lovely archivists over at redditsearch.io, their entire reddit history is now searchable by their bosses with major news outlets quoting them by name as well as hundreds of Redditors turning their name into a meme.
RIP
Edit: He's posted his age, that he's worked in defense before, and has been name dropped by his wife identifying him as her husband. Her account is 8 years old and there are pictures of their house on there. I tried to message her but her DMs and chats are closed. Fuck that sucks.

I play a lot of disc golf and the competitive scene uses Facebook to organize events and sell old discs. The old disc golf specific websites were dope. That's how I learned to throw the damn things and what got me into taking road trips to new courses with friends.
