👋 Introducing (_after a 3yr hiatic where the project actually begin in ~2023+); cas.run: give it a container image and it runs it on the web at its own hostname. This is an alpha service at the moment, so; every account gets one service, 64 MB of memory and a gigabyte of disk space. You can purchase more units at a $1/month (AUD), so it’s like $0.70 USD I think. Don’t use this for anything big please (not yet), the infra behind it runs on a single host in Sydney right now. https://cas.run

Since honesty is kindness, Microsoft is by far the worst company I ever had the displeasure of trying to communicate with. Getting them to fix the most basic of bugs always took years. In some cases it’s been over two and a half decades and it’s still broken.

I never thought it was even possible to make an operating system so broken, I’d have to manually restart my background services and set “network interface metrics” by hand, in advanced TCP/IP settings, while using it.

There are buttons that don’t even do anything when clicked and ones I’ve never seen do anything other than throw an error message.

The AI they rent to pretend to be an AI company, was for years outputting paragraphs, describing the beautiful and artful checkerboard pattern in the background, whenever trying to analyze transparent images. Transparent profile pictures work only on GitHub, the one product where the implementation was done prior to Microsoft acquisition.

Many engineers in their own forums, still manage to make that very AI sound smart, in comparison.

The design is an absolute shitshow, where no two things look like they belong in the same system — the only thing almost consistent, is excessive padding and rounded corners, placed wherever they fit the least.

But hey, 5000 engineers were fired, that will surely improve things!
