I have AdGuard running in my home lab and pointed the router to the AdGuard DNS resolver. I have some general block lists and a special Smart TV block list. I asked DeepSeek to do the same scan, but given everything goes through AdGuard it’

A local drug lord likes your daughter. He offers to purchase her for a load of cash. He threats to kill your entire family to get her if you refuse. You do the pragmatic thing and sell her to him so you can save the rest of your family? Dou

Right. Afghanistan had 20M+ in 2001, what’s your point? What I’m saying is that, geopolitically, Cuba is not relevant today the US has no upside in going after it. They don’t even put out anti-American rhetoric anymore.

What’s Cuba relevance today? Back in the Cold War they had a strategic location, close ties to the USSR etc. But that hasn’t been the case since the other Castro died. Today Cuba is irrelevant. I don’t even know the name on the Cuban presid

I envy / admire that kind of persistence. But I think it just makes it clear this is about the money and not the company, product, problem, space, or users. Recently I spoke to a recently funded, first-time founder. They worked less th
