20000th poster gets a cookie (cookie thread (Part 7)) (Part 9)

if anything the big takeaway from this for me is that (if we ever need to do this again) I should just keep FoT connected to the forum as the alternate domain rather than pulling it entirely

then after like a few days of people getting redirects to FoL cached I can delete it

since the DNS redirect takes so long to trickle down, but just changing which domain the forum treats as the primary one is near instant

Nope! After cleaning out my old google domains stuff I really didnt want to go through the stress I feel any time i use a new paid for service. Im pretty sure cloudflare is the closest equivalent though and connects like, the rest of Cloudflare through it. They’re most likely what I would choose if I chose to Do Things again

This causes deflationary pressures upon the market that cripple the entire market and ultimately empower the rich.
Removing the influx of cookies means that the value of cookies will go up over time, so no one will spend cookies beyond what they need to. Thus, people will choose not to spend their cookies on discretionary goods, things like toys and books and electronics and restaurants that are not necessary but are still important sections of the economy.
Additionally, since you can only save non-essential cookies, you create a system that disproportionately affects people for whom essential goods are a larger percentage of their total income.

So… I usually have my VPN default to getting hosted in the Netherlands.

Today I got a suspicious number exactly from that country of which I did not pick up…

I wonder which site got breached that my phone number presumably is floating somewhere on the dark web.

TBD

the main thing holding us back is that the VC plugin doesn’t work on newer versions

and we’d either need to spend significant time porting it or paying somebody to do that

all while creating a ton of extra work for us and gaining very few new features we actually want
