literallymechanical: shapeshitting: prokopetz: The whole “capitalism gave you the Internet" thing is especially funny if you actually work in network infrastructure, since one of the first things you'll learn is that many software technologies that are absolutely critical to the day to day functioning of the Internet are being maintained on a volunteer basis by small, decentralised teams working in whatever free time their day jobs leave them, and that we'd have a crisis on our hands within thirty days if any one of those maintainers were to get hit by a bus and nobody stepped up to replace them. Like, the whole commercial edifice of the Internet rests on the continuous unpaid labour of a relative handful of people who are essentially just doing it for fun. ALL MODERN DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE A PROJECT SOME RANDOM PERSON IN NEBRASKA HAS BEEN THANKLESSLY YAINΤΑΙΝING SINCE 2003 if you're interested in reading more about it @mmsword Telecommunications as a whole, which also encompasses The Internet, is in a constant state of failure and just in time fixes and functionally all modern communication would collapse if about 50 people, most of which are furries, decided to turn their pager off for a day. myk is more of a question than a comment @mykola · Nov 24, 2019 Please quote this tweet with a thing that everyone in your field knows and nobody in your industry talks about because it would lead to general chaos.

On the first part: The Internet and telephone systems of today are codependent and the Internet is an incredibly fragile thing that constantly breaks in hundreds of different ways on the daily because of the scale of it. 2 t7 65 794 Žáôdêr @mmsword · Nov 29, 2019 Support of this is seen as a cost center and is cut to the bone as far as humanly possible without it visibly failing. Anyone that works in a NOC will tell you that 24/7 globally, some major part of the internet, somewhere, is busted and waiting on an oncall engineer to fix. ♡ 3 t3 73 ♡ 756 Žáôdêr @mmsword - Nov 29, 2019 So the least possible number of people are used to maintain one of the most complex systems to ever exist and it's on fire 90% of the time and the only reason why anything works is because someone got texted about it and fixed it while eating supper. t7 89 854 Žánder @mmsword - Nov 29, 2019 Your phones? All extensions of the internet now. Cell phones, land lines, 99% of what you see is some flavor of Voice Over IP carried on the INternet. Even Land Mobile Radios and walkie talkies are VOIP now. Even that old copper line that grandma has is converted somewhere. ♡ 3 t7 47 ♡ 655 Žábdet @mmsword · Nov 29, 2019 And furries? Furries have always run the internet since bulletin board days. Furries had a dedicated ISP before the White House got internet service. They are also heavily present in the amateur radio scene. ♡ 8 27 230 1.2K Žánder @mmsword - Nov 29, 2019 Between the two, a lot of furries turned their hobby in tech into day jobs in the early days of the field, then trained their friends to get jobs at the places they worked, who were also furries, and that's continued for 30 years now, across the globe. ♡ 17 27 101 1K ALL MODERN DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE Furries
