  • The first one is Space Warlord Organ Trading Similator. It’s a simple game of trading, well, organs, but it has good soundtrack, nice visuals and different storylines that you reveal through doing quests and accepting/declining incoming transmissions. The game sessions could be really short, so the game is very fitting when you don’t know where to spend 10 minutes of your time.

    The other one I’ve been playing is Fallout 2. Super good. It has its bad sides and certainly has a feel of an old game, but if you’re an RPG genre fan, definitely give it a try. Although, it requires some level of effort to play it, you can’t just load and start mindlessly doing radiant or other simple quests like in Fallout 4, which is a downer for me when I’m tired after work and want to zone out for an hour or two.






  • TL;DR

    A decently big casino, as you could guess from the article, was getting away with Cloudflare’s Business Plan (250$/month, which even the author in the post agrees was a “fairly low price”, likely downplaying it).

    The Cloudflare team reached out to them to let them know their usage does not fit into the tier anymore and they need to pay the custom price of an Enterprise plan, which may, or may not have been fair since the author does not provide any relevant data, because they were cut off from the stats since they had their account terminated.

    The casino refused and indicated they are at talks with Fastly, which was a stupid thing to tell to the CF team, because on their end it was looking like “yeah, we’re going to keep freeloading until we move to another company”, so they decided to terminate the casino’s account.

    The story taught the author not to rely on proprietary services. I hope it might also teach them not to rely on any service if they are getting away with a price that is way too cheap for the resources they consume.




  • Average looking house in Ukraine. Khrushchovka that itself doesn’t look too good is ruined by the fact that each flat was renovated with 0 attention to how the other ones look. There are usually some white walls, some gray, some are still orange form the bricks, some balconies have windows, some don’t.
