Turns it it wasn't just them... ( i started that thread in lobby )
Wed Mar 06 2024 04:18:18 EST from darknetuserThere was a mention on the radio about it. Apparently so many Facebook/Meta services have faced bad long downtime.
Fuck them.
It would be a Good Thing if the major cloud providers had more mega-outages. There isn't enough diversity (no, not the Didn't Earn It kind) in web hosting today. Seems like if one of the big AWS or Azure regions has an outage, half the Internet goes dark. This needs to happen more often so people do something about it.
Oh boy my 'item' sold on OpenSea and i get 0.7WETH! I just need to validate my wallet!
um.. item? WETH? OpenSea? Lol. Sad part is people fall for this crap. Else it would stop.
*sigh*
Telling the solar scammers that I already have solar is too easy. It gets rid of them right away -- they just hang up without even saying thank you and goodbye -- but it doesn't provide enough of an opportunity to taunt them and waste their time.
I got a call from Rajeehsumabariagareshbhudiman (also known as "Adam") at Solar Solutions and he just hung up when I told him I already have solar.
He didn't even give me the courtesy of offering some rude comments about my mother.
Why do you even answer the phone these days? If i dont recognize your #, you will get voice mail. For my home phone, you can hear them talk to the recording via speaker and i wont even move off the couch unless i know who it is. Cell phone, ill go back later and look. ( i have voice to text so i dont even have to listen )
One of my jobs is very phone intensive and we face this stance quite often. It is very bad for the customers. As in really really bad.
I am not gonna give hints, but let's say what $job1 sells is in quite low supply, so when a customer appears that wants some, he is more likely than not gonna be sent to a list and be told we will call him once the product is available.
Then the product is ready, we start phoning the people in the list in order. The call people will give the target about an hour to call back if he wasn't found. Then they move to the next customer in the list. Whoever answers the phone first gets the product.
The smartasses not picking the phone are usually sent an email after a number of tries (I think they don t read those either) and usually get up dumped. A month later they call asking what is going on with the product. "Sorry, smartass, but since you are unlocatable we are givintg it to the customers we can find."
