TIL, thanks for the context. What I was getting at still stands, LLM's seem to love a lot of words-with-hyphens which might be grammatically correct, but I've never seen a human actually type.

I always thought the choice was between, do you want the company that is honest about being dishonest, or the one that is dishonest about it.

real people don't write "compare-and-swap" ... or "lo-and-behold" for that matter. edit. Clearly the joke about "lo-and-behold" didn't land well with the bots...

I thought this was common knowledge? In my bio class ~20 years ago, people swabbed parts of the bathroom to see how far from the toilet you still found e. coli etc. And while this suggests it wasn't consistent, have always closed the l

Whenever the 12 mini came out, that was the last new phone I bought, and it still works great, although I prefer to use Graphene than iOS.

I'm so happy I stopped caring about new phones about five years ago, since then I've spent about $200 on phones – for a used pixel 8 that I installed GrapheneOS on. Consumerism is mad.

today I broke my personal age record – it was a tough ride, but with grit and determination, I think maybe, just maybe, I can do it again tomorrow. Oh, and I also have no AI features.

indeed, typically by using their huge cash piles to build a moat around them, so no small new player has a dream of competing. This is why I refuse to give any money to AWS/GCP/Azure or anyone who runs on them.

When someone says cloudflare is too good / cheap to be true... maybe think about it. They have shareholders, who wouldn't allow them to provide value for free, its just not obvious to you how they are extracting that value. Maybe

Ha, fair. The home page is a global feed of all users, limited to one post per day per user. One of many potential solutions to an alternative to todays social media – like substack, but without the shitty sides of social media.

Indeed, Thats part of the premise, we don't need to invent new technologies when email/rss are already self curated / federated. The missing piece is discovery. Which is why in addition to allowing you to aggregate internal&#

AFAIK the netflix CDN boxes all run -current (they used to at least), so is the main pfsense release. -current is definitely ok for production

They've actually just done that, your limit automatically gets increased if all your domains are secured.

Happy deSec user, use them for all my domains. Had quick thoughtful replies from Peter if I had any questions.

Really? I thought they mostly just bought other peoples companies, and a large number don't do anything at all - they inherit.

I refuse to give my data, to yet another company trying to control and centralize the internet. For their "Free" service. Instead, I pay money to run a VM with DDOS protection on vultr, to guard my infrastructure I run on prem. Us

I'd create a long form writing platform because short form, leads to banalities like these. We don't need another twitter, we need people to think about whats important in life, to go outside and live it. I'd call it https:&

They are cool, man they've grown. I used that when there were ~20 VM's on there. Its a great project but think its only physically in Amsterdam which is why I ended up moving back to vultr, as they have many more options.

I've always gone with Vultr (vultr.com) for BSD VMs, its properly supported by them and while I've never hard verified this, they seem like a nice smaller player. Like they have offered Open/Free BSD VM's for > 10 yea
