There is a status page that tracks the downtime, it's not totally detailed but gives a bit of information about the problem they're dealing with. The last 2 days of logs are particularly bad 14+ hrs of partial downtime.
It's like a fun* little cat and mouse game, you figure out the patterns to block specific traffic, then they adapt and you start again. I even saw some users comment the other day they were being hit with false positives and blocked because the blocking was too aggressive. Fortunately there are companies that specialize in this kind of stuff like cloudflare. But that costs money so it wasn't added until just recently, so it's possible attacks are still getting around that.

I've been going to sh.itjust.works. You can find a list of other instances here as well.
They were getting hit with a lot of DDoS attacks a week or two ago, that may still be going on. Also they took off faster than most instances so a lot of this is just growing pains.
many people have been bailing from the server
That's not a bad thing, the content is shared between instances so you can get it on the other sites too. People going to other sites will hopefully help balance the load and possibly help with the growing pains. I haven't created an account on another instance yet, but I've been visiting other instances when .world goes down.
Cognitive dissonance baby! And I'm right there with you.
What you're wanting to do is sort a list, I know that word allows you to sort as bulleted list.
Edit: I assumed their mobile app had similar features to the desktop version, but after installing it's severely lacking in features.
I wish farts would replace people, imagine just being floating sentient stink clouds.
When I created my account I checked the box just out of reflex before I realized what it was for.
Been a few years since I looked back over my old livejournal, always funny to see just how different of a person I was 20 years ago.
The box is super simple, it's just an LED that illuminates a piece of plastic with the number on it. I got one of these a few years ago and everyone else I knew that got one had the exact same number. It's a scam to get dumb people to come down to the dealership.
I was a computer lab assistant from 10th-12th grade. My senior year I skipped most of my classes to play Doom or Descent with the other computer lab assistants.
Amazon employees who refuse to relocate near their teams' "hub" offices will either have to find a new job internally or leave the company through a "voluntary resignation."
Amazon started enforcing its so-called "return-to-hub" policy in recent weeks, according to an internal email and Slack messages obtained by Insider. Hubs are the central locations assigned to each individual team — employees will have to work out of those hubs instead of any office nearest to their current city.
One manager declared hubs in Seattle, New York, Houston, and Austin, Texas, for their team, according to one Slack message. It said those who refuse to relocate to one of those hubs will either have to transfer to a new team or they will be considered a "voluntary resignation."
The move is part of Amazon's effort to encourage more in-person work. Under the initial return-to-office policy, Amazon assigned offices for most individual employees, but not the whole team. Some employees told Insider that made office work pointless because many still had to use video calls to connect with their teammates spread across the country. Andy Jassy, the CEO of Amazon, said in his RTO announcement earlier this year that "collaborating and inventing is easier and more effective when we're in person."
In an email to Insider, Amazon's spokesperson, Brad Glasser, said there's "more energy, collaboration, and connections happening since we've been working together at least three days per week."
"We continue to look at the best ways to bring more teams together in the same locations, and we'll communicate directly with employees as we make decisions that affect them," Glasser said.
The new policy comes as a shock to some employees, especially those who were hired for virtual jobs or who moved to remote locations during the pandemic. Prior to the RTO announcement in February, Amazon said in a statement that it didn't plan on forcing people back to the office, while it would continue "experimenting, learning, and adjusting for a while."
"I have seen many posts that people are asked to relocate to one of the hubs in the past week, regardless of virtual status or currently assigned cities/countries. People that had been approved to move to a different country with virtual location were asked to move back to one of the hubs in the US, not to mention people in other cities in the US," one Slack message read.
Employees who refuse to join a hub are given 60 days to find a new team that allows them to stay in their current city, according to Slack messages and an internal email sent Tuesday. If unsuccessful after 60 days, it's considered a voluntary resignation. Most employees were told to make their decision by August.
Amazon's spokesperson said relocation benefits will be available, and the company will make exceptions on a case-by-case basis. Some roles, including sales and customer support, may also continue to be remote.
Still, the change only adds to the frustration Amazon employees face. Earlier this year, over 30,000 Amazon employees joined an internal Slack channel shortly after the RTO announcement and signed a petition to demand a reversal of the mandate. Amazon's HR chief, Beth Galetti, flatly rejected the petition in March, as Insider previously reported.
"I recognize this is completely unethical, not human-centric, and doesn't 'strive to be Earth's best employer,'" another person wrote in Slack. "It's so end-game dystopian. None of us knows how to process this news."
Curious if he sold it to twitter, I can't imagine parting with a single character domain for free.
I wonder how much x.com cost to purchase, or if it was just a domain twitter/Musk had lying around.

I kind of struggle with the constant cut scenes. There are times when the only gameplay is just walking to another room and then another 5min cut scene starts. There was even a point where the cut scene was so long my controller shut off. I often feel like they could have just released it as a TV series instead of a game.
The graphics are great, the fighting animations are awesome, and the times that I do manually control combat it's super fun. I do agree that it's not a great game (it might be better if I stopped being lazy and removed the "cheater" rings) but it is a lot of fun to play!
I worked as a landscaper just after high school and while working on a flower bed behind an apartment I stepped directly on a yellow jacket nest. Before I realized what had happened there were yellow jackets in my pant leg. I was stung well over 100 times. I was allowed to take the rest of the day off.
