There are plentiful scenarios where 10 minutes of sequential downtime would be a critical issue. Say you’re a telecoms or internet provider - even a one minute delay to a life-saving message can be enough for someone to die.

Furthermore, lots of things are interconnected now.

That could up being 2hrs of downtime each week.

Supplemental Question: This is my first post on Lemmy, and the responses have me wanting to clarify something- Is everyone on this platform fucking mental?

No, but the fediverse has a good portion of the crazier parts of the left wing (and they are very vocal). If it bothers you, go heavy on blocking the worst offenders and you’ll find that most lemmings are pretty chill. We’re “just” nuts enough stray from the mainstream platforms where most normies hang out.

I for one look forward to the day when I can recommend the fediverse to at least my left-wing friends w/o them questioning my sanity.

Seems to be the same software as the freely available Ur-Quan Masters off-steam, no?

There’s also a HD remaster, which doesn’t seem to be on steam.

…and they wonder why we become EU-sceptics…
