Still lots of Azure problems this morning 😞

I know that a multi trillion dollar company has a lot of resources to throw at problems like these and can run things at scale, but I did like it when outages had smaller blast radii

thomas 2025-10-30T10:37:59.858199Z

yup

I have a cold for more than two weeks straight now. I'm pretty sure it's COVID.

simongray 2025-10-30T13:40:02.511679Z

It has that annoying almost-dissappear-then-suddenly-reappear-with-full-force quality.

Just got a covid + flu jab this week. I figured I'd get them since I have to go on a long flight soon and last time I got covid

borkdude 2025-10-30T13:51:01.448059Z

hope you feel better soon!

It may not be COVID -- there's a particularly nasty cold bug going around: several of our friends have symptoms on and off for up to two months. One friend had a really bad cold for a week but it left her with a cough she can't shake for almost two months now. They've all tested for COVID, all negative. That said, both my wife & I got COVID "recently" and this time it took me about a week longer to recover than her -- normally, I recover from stuff much faster. We just got our updated COVID jabs on Tuesday (and I got my flu shot too -- she got hers a month ago).

I felt a bit shaky this morning from the shots but now I almost feel kinda fine again. I have fear of getting shots, I tend to almost faint. So I avoided the shots since 3 years post-pandemic. Half a year ago I got a pretty bad flu though and since I'm flying to the US I thought it'd be worth it

seancorfield 2025-10-30T14:32:10.503859Z

The US has had some bad surges of COVID lately, so I think that is sensible.

2025-10-30T15:32:30.298349Z

We just had an off/on “cold” for 3 weeks: First my wife, then me, then we thought we were good, then me again, then our 2.5 months old child (our first) had over 38 degrees so off to the hospital we go. There he got tested, was Covid and then my wife got it again. So in Switzerland there’s definitely a big Covid wave going round. Now we’re fine again 😄 Hope you feel better soon too!

@seancorfield yes, that's it.

Trying my luck here: anyone happen to have a http://lobste.rs invitation they could spare? I promise I'd be good. 🙂

borkdude 2025-11-04T10:57:27.553139Z

I'd like one too if someone has a spare invite

flowthing 2025-11-04T10:58:51.956899Z

Well, I do now. 🙂
