Waiting for 30 minutes to access the Web site of the Road Safety Authority, the Irish equivalent of the DMV. Too bad they don't have physical offices where I could queue personally...
Next: a subscription to jump to the front of the queue.
I remember when woodie's implemented this during pandemic when everyone was stuck home and trying to DIY.
Honestly, it's fine. I'd do just about anything to avoid physically going to the DMV.
This feels like something you would see at the DMV
Reminds me of the SSA website's operating hours.
That's gonna be a hard no from me, dog.
It reminds me of the people who would turn off their websites at night way back when. Probably because their sites were hosted on personal PCs but still...
Canada's gov website is still like this. The website has open hours. Try doing anything taxes related late at night.
I don't remember this but totally makes sense back then.
Why pay for more servers when you can tell your users to queue?
Better than the system being used by the department of human services in Australia. If the servers and service centres are overloaded, you basically just get told "tough shit, try again later, hope you're not desperately trying to get out of a DV situation or protect an elder from abuse, cause we're not paying for more servers"
At least with a digital queue system there's a sliver of hope that you might get through.
Load Balancers everywhere named Samwise: “You mean we don’t have to share the load?”
you probably have no idea what the other people in line smell like
Do we need to talk about the elephant in the room?

Weird DDoS mitigation?
This is what concert ticket selling sites do for highly anticipated events.
Somehow I don't think the DMV (or equivalent) would receive the same amount of traffic.
Maybe there are "peak seasons" where everyone rushes onto the server to get something done hours before a national deadline or something? No appreciable traffic 50 weeks of the year year, but total chaos in the remaining two. Not an uncommon thing for certain offices and agencies.
The bad ones...
