They're providing beautifully made ebooks for free...

The only thing they are is truly, truly wonderful.

Please don't spread more FUD.

It's only hepatoxic at high doses. Taking 1 or 2 Tylenol a day is not going to cause any problems.

You are off by a factor of 12.

It's $9 per month not year.

Unfortunately those are both 10-15x the cost of deepseek direct.

Deepinfra is pretty cheap though as a deepseek provider.

IIRC they went fully open source because they couldn't make it as a for profit company.

I used to use Bluetooth to, but the TUI nature of Bluetooth makes it so much easier.

I've been using vim and neovim for over 15 years with many 10s of plugins and I can probably count on one or two hands when an update has caused problems.

Also use Arch for about as long.

It's so odd to me when someone says that updates break their vim or Arch frequently.

New comment by phaedrix in "Small SaaS banned by Cloudflare after 4 years of being paying customer"

phaedrix — Fri, 03 Feb 2023 19:02:13 +0000

Cloudflare support is complete garbage.

We upgraded to Enterprise, and had some issues because CF's documentation was not clear (literally a blog post), and their support took many days to even respond and then their response made it clear they hadn't even read the ticket.

I'd move everything into AWS in a second if moving DNS wasn't such a pain.

Also am forced to use the global api token because constantly get rate limited using permission-scoped api tokens -- this is from a simple Terraform plan (first thing in the morning) and after them increasing my rate limit to the max.
