People are freaking out about this iCloud Private Relay outage, but my devices (which are on the new betas) just sent me a notification sometime last night saying, “iCloud Private Relay is off. It’ll come back later.” and that was it. It didn’t turn off my internet or anything. What gives?

@evan @miaq I assure you Center Camp is still there. Death Guild probably is, too, but it’s probably run by Millennials now

@evan @miaq I might have spoken too soon https://journal.burningman.org/2024/04/black-rock-city/participate-in-brc/recentering-the-heart-of-brc/

@evan @miaq See the problem is, I think they’re all using like Asana and whatnot. Burning Man requires pivot tables now

@evan @miaq @ricmac @Flipboard Well, that is definitely true from the point of view I always assumed when liaising with participants who wanted software things to happen, which was, “Your best bet is to make it, go viral for it, get everyone using it, and then we’ll have to go along with it.”

@ricmac @Flipboard I don’t think I was on the Flipboard beat right when it came out, but I definitely picked it up and covered it as long as I was there. Anything in the “reading on iPads” category has always been bait for me. And then I ended up working with @miaq later, and now here we all are. Flipboard is intertwined with my destiny.

@miaq @ricmac @Flipboard Yeah @evan was recently asking this question. I was unable to pick my head up off of my desk for days afterwards.
