Thankfully the West has a free press so you can easily verify the facts. Id rather that then believe the lies your oppressors are telling you.

That’s unfortunate given their treatment of their people.

I have to say I am sick of having to give a safety briefing to passengers when they get a ride.

“If we crash and burn, the manual release is behind there” points

Why didnt they just put regular bloody handles on!?

For me, that’s not compelling. We all have different priorities.

If you’re referring to their announcement last year about discontinuing meshnet, they’ve retracted that.

I know there are alternatives but why would I go to any effort to set them up when i have something that has worked exactly as I want it to for the last 2yrs? The cost of nordvpn is sufficiently low enough that I wouldn’t switch to something just because it’s free.

I’ve used NordVPN for a couple of years and never had reason to switch. None of it gets in my way, and it’s just worked.

I’m sure others are just the same, but ive no reason to put in effort to change when I have a working solution.

Plus it’s double effort cus I dont think anyone else does a meshnet alternative so I’d be setting up tailscale too.

Start at 1 and work your way up in increments of 1.

See you in about 100 years give or take a few decades.

Yes.

It’s the hormones in the water

I’ve had a bit of a tumble

I cannot, because it’s not something I track. It’s usually some site ive only ever visited that once, worked around their shit engineering, and moved on with my life. So it’s not that specific sites don’t work, it’s that ive had to use Chrome or edge 6 times this year.

I can’t remember a browser ever saying I needed chrome. Even Google Meet works fine…just functionality is reduced. A small price to pay for not giving Google the keys.

What browser do you use?

I’m getting a bit tired of website incompatibility with Firefox but when the alternative is Chrome, I’m sticking with FF.

Got a link? I’d love to get me one of those

That’s not how people made money. That’s what precipitated the crash. Shorting companies that were exposed would have been one route to make money - but as I said before, the smart piece there is in the timing not the mechanism. Shorting stock isnt difficult…Shorting it at the right time can be.

Judo is more focussed on throwing and grappling than it is on joint locks and holds, or “folding”.

The more you know.

I’ve got 2 rPis - a pi5 running Home Assistant and a pi4 with a USB drive caddy acting as little more than a NAS (it also does all the downloading through radarr etc… )

I find them perfectly adequate.

My gaming rig acts as my emby server as it’s basically on all the time and it has a beefy gfx card that can handle transcoding.

this quirkiness doesn’t materialise in real world applications on any scale that makes it harder to deal with than the alternatives.

Strike fear into your fellow man? Show those peasants that you are working hard to replace them entirely.

Okay sounds probably gonna get crucified for not reading this…but if the headline is true and combined with the fact that LLMs have been known to expose training data, this seems to introduce a non-zero chance that my personal emails are going to get shown to strangers…

Careful with views like that. They’re not very popular here on Lemmy. Can’t possibly promote responsible and reasonable use of new computer software.

AI bad.
