Amazon Web Services had a massive outage...and a ton of websites rely on that infrastructure. So lots of sites are still broken or struggling right now, even as Amazon claims it's recovering.

15.10.2025 06:17 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Infuriating that a platform with such processing capability cannot react gracefully to faults in critical systems. Heck, my 1990s car will revert to backup behaviors in case of faults! Transmission limp mode if solenoids fail or disabling the ABS if a wheel sensor returns nonsense data. (2/2)
13.10.2025 17:49 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I wonder if it's something weird where a very low miles test mule or static test platform reacted fine, but a real world vehicle with miles and wear presented data the update just didn't cooperate with, causing the driveline module to freak out. Regardless, poor QC and fault tolerance. (1/2)

08.09.2025 19:27 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0In that case just pick a schedule! I wish I could get that far ahead with my content creation
Special events can adjust that schedule too! It's not like you're a corpo studio with a contract saying you gotta push X chapter by Y date exactly.
Important to find a pace that will let you avoid burnout long term and give some buffer against surprises that delay your work.

I'm proud of you. Keep going. You've got this. Don't listen to the bad voice; listen to mine. You're important. Keep at it. Head high.
oof major bad luck ๐ซ

23.08.2025 21:56 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Usually it's a team, probably a very large team. But lots of people have designed and built one off projects solo. Certainly easier to start with a kit or existing vehicle as a base instead of reinventing everything from scratch.

22.08.2025 19:06 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Oof. Do you need to be completely stopped, or does simply applying the brakes while rolling change the sound?
22.08.2025 19:04 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0So only when rolling, no noise when stopped? Varies with vehicle speed?
22.08.2025 19:00 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0At all times constant? Comes and goes? Varies or goes away or gets louder with engine revs? Sounds tinny like a rattle?
