    Over a full day between Only a few hours between the two accidents at the same location. Notable that both were hauling two trailers each.

    The first truck was hauling two trailers and crashed just before 9 p.m. Friday when the driver hit an abandoned vehicle that was parked on the shoulder of the freeway, smashing through the guardrail and plunging into the river. The driver was able to swim to shore and was not injured, according to the Sherman County Sheriff's Office.

    The second truck crashed just before 12:30 a.m. Saturday as emergency responders were on scene for the first crash. A semi with two fuel tanker trailers in tow struck an Oregon Department of Transportation vehicle, slid off the freeway and crashed into the river next to the first two trailers. Investigators said the driver likely fell asleep before the crash. The sheriff's office said the tanks were empty.

  • It’s already like that here, friend.

    Lemmy didn't take off until well into May 2023, despite being online and open source for over 4 years. The quantity of posts, communities, comments was very small for 4 years online.

    Then everyone flocked out of hate and anger of an API money matter with Reddit.Then crowds got hate-filled and angry when Threads was launched by Meta/Instagram/Facebook on July 5. And crowds became hate-filled and angry over Elon Musk rename of Twitter to X on July 23.

    Outside big growth in memes and shitposts, there haven't been big numbers of people flocking here out of organic goodness on organized topics. It has largely been a HiveMind of hate as a motivation to come here since May.

    Some good seeds have been planted since May, but the atmosphere of hate motivates change is pretty much Mob Mentality / reactionary.

  • In the real world, communities are independent entities, free to choose where and how they hang out. No one tells them what to do or where to go.

    I guess the people who run Reddit really think none of their audience was educated by say... Snoopy.... or seen a "no skateboarding" sign in their life. You can just hang out anywhere IRL!

  • Lemmy.ml is down right now (back online, was unreachable for about 6 hours)

  • most likely, yes. There was no notice of a planned outage, and the timing of them both going down within 15 minutes of each other. Lemmy server programming code isn't very robust when it comes to performance, it is possible to busy up the database to a point that the site become unresponsive. I don't know what is going on with lemmy.ml being entirely unreachable, the devs who run that server don't normally work on weekends... and normally nginx responds with an error at minimum. Nothing at all is loading

  • Lemmy.ml is down right now (back online, was unreachable for about 6 hours)

    FYI: lemmy.ml - central hub for many communities - has been down 2 hours after 0.18 upgrade EDIT: back up - they say DDoS attack against multiple Lemmy instances

    Based on my weeks of code (and operating instance) study on lemmy_server, I strongly suspect that peer servers upgrading to 0.18 is causing a swarm of federation activity that lemmy.ml is getting as peers go down and back up.

    PLEASE help test Lemmy 0.18 fixes, enterprise.lemmy.ml is the testing server with latest code

    Enterprise: enterprise.lemmy.ml - Thank you!
