@dcc@annihilation.social Dandelion and chicory root was widely utilized in the Confederate South during the Civil War as a coffee replacement due to scarcity of coffee bean.
@adiz Neither have caffeine, the important word here is "replacement". Why would use need to replace coffe exactly. The horta one is really weird since the type of bitterness it has is very different.
@dcc@annihilation.social I don't know. If it contains caffeine or otherwise has an enjoyable taste, why not? I had some friends in Asheville, North Carolina, who sold chicory coffee in their cafe.
@adiz I dont think either of us know :pepe_cofe_2: , anyways. Do you know anything about using two ip's for a server (one is a backup vps in case my main internet goes down)
@dcc@annihilation.social I have no idea. I'm just saying, maybe people like it? If there's a market to manufacture it, why not sell into that market if there is profit to be made? The private market produces all sorts of pointless and nonsensical stuff just because people are willing to purchase them and human beings aren't rational, ergo market economic aren't rational. Would I drink this in lieu of coffee? No. Do I want to replace coffee? Absolutely not. But, perhaps, others do. I don't know.
@adiz From my small amount of research a load balancer is the best method. Mostly becuase if you have two ip's in you're dns you're just doing round robin.
@dcc@annihilation.social I do not know anything about that other than it is possible and I think this would be something which would be configured by your DNS settings, if you have a DNS server. We use a program called VirtualMin which is basically a more advanced, FLOSS version of CPanel. It provides functionality for setting up and managing a DNS server(s).
However, I'm sure there are other ways of accomplishing this without some fancy tool suite. This would be what you would call a "fallback IP" for DNS.
