Luckily DNS is somewhat decentralized.

Let it fall. People will then finally understand that this solution is not good. Decentraltion is the original design of the Internet.
The internet was originally decentralized, but there is a reason why we changed to centralized.
Because the ability to fend off DDoS attacks, being able to use easy to remember words instead of numbers, and all the other centralized things makes everything easier and more robust.
You can still setup your decentralized internet, maybe throw in some blockchain, but nobody will want to use it because of all the disadvantages.
Thank fuck nobody uses Google
...would these beans actually do much of anything to hold up this legobrick building?
Edit: I'm not fixing it
I’m also wondering what’s the story behind this pic. I don’t think I’d want to park my car there or be standing there, hard hat or not.
And it seems like that structure would be damaged beyond the point where you could right it again by pulling it back up.
The goal is to slow the fall down so people can demolish it safely.
Ok but wtf is actually going on in this picture
Man, I sure hope DNS doesn't go bust
DNS isn't going away. But don't depend on someone else's server. Run your own! Its also a great opportunity to block ads/malware/tracking. Here's some resources to get you started:
Did not know DNS is a company. I would probably put Akamai there or Fastly.
That’s a shitty analogy, at least for yesterday’s outage. The sites behind cloudflare were working, they were just inaccessible because of cloudflare’s fuck up.
Oh God, the Internet fails in big chunks instead piece by piece on random days, the fucking horror.
Despite them being bastards, the Internet is more stable than ever because of them.
Do you even know how to calculate error budgets?
