I created a small repo that has a script that lets you "scrape" comic kingdom if you have a subscriber account.

I hacked it together in the afternoon. You will need a few skill points in Python and cookies to get this working.

Big surprise that.

Hard to celebrate July 4, when there are so many in Congress who are working AGAINST American values. Active Insurrection happened, and the leaders are still walking free.

And there are people out there right now that want people I care about dead, JUST for existing.

I'll celebrate later.

When I was a Devops Engineer at Yahoo, I was tasked with the care and feeding of a server farm set designed to handle 1.7 million hits per second.

It spanned twelve thousand machines across four data centers.

Capacity for a site like Twitter is NOT cheap...

One problem with sites is that once you get popular enough, the capacity gets to where keeping the same "experience" as you had with 50 users, at now 500,000 users, requires a MUCH bigger budget than just a $10/month host.

Site Popularity past a point, requires money.

Eventually, a "twitter" size site requires -BIG- money.

So plan on visiting many, many smaller sites that can sustain themselves.

@JackRohn The hard part for me is getting people to use it. Which is the problem with any new site, getting people to step away from using The One EVERYONE Uses and Try A New Site.
@JackRohn thank you for being there. It was an attempt
