you’ve got to give it a way (eg rendering with playwright and friends) and tell it to use that way to verify correctness. it’s not going to create the guard rail for you but if you provide it with one the output is much better.
ahh finally success—a fresh sprite goes to sleep as it should. unfortunately the original one i created doesn't, so I guess I'm going to have to kill that one off.
This is great news! If we upgraded our sprite already how long should it take to suspend? I noticed the upgrade earlier and installed it but my sprite is still running.
I think the idling feature still needs some work. I created one over the weekend that hasn't idled once, and I've run several tests with sprites that have nothing in them—just `sprite create` and log out, just to see what happens (which unfortunately is nothing, left alone it keeps on running as well.)
I love the idea and most of the execution, I've really enjoyed getting my first sprite configured just the way I want it. It just needs the idling feature to work as advertised before I think I can use it as cost-effectively as it promises.
Is there something we have to do to get a sprite to idle? Because I started one over the weekend that's still running despite no network usage, so that seems to be currently broken.
yeah reading further into the docs it looks like that’s the model. storage is pretty cheap, $.00068/gb-hr, so a 100GB disk runs you about 1.6 cents per day.
something that isn’t clear to me: what’s the billing when i’m not actively using a sprite? does that go to zero as well, or am i still being billed for storage?

did you perhaps mean 1914? i’m not a historian but i DID watch Hamilton a few times and it really seemed like King George had quite a lot of power and authority…
There is for direct contributions. However the strategy used here is sometimes called the backdoor Roth IRA because there are no income limits to rolling a traditional IRA into a Roth.
Could you elaborate on specific issues you see with the use of web sockets over http/s for request response? I see this argument from time to time and I have a hard time with it when you take resource hogging out of the equation, which isn't much of a factor in many situations.
