Yes however they are literally move all their infrastructure to the UK so they won’t be an option soon.

Windscribe is a thin too, but since they are Canadian and Canada is making stupid political deals with the US lately, it can’t be relied on either.

I2p and the return of webrings. Done.

Part of that is allowing labels to be so powerful. Someone doesn’t have to watch kiddie porn or molest children to be branded a pedophile, but when you have that label for someone, it’s implied that’s what they did. We saw this same shit during the Bush years with the “terrorism” label. We’re actually seeing it again with Luigi Mangione and people protesting at Tesla dealerships. People don’t care about reality if there’s simple branding that wipes critical thinking away.

VPNs aren’t going to be a practical solution going forward. You are creating dependancies that governments can target, spying on traffic and enforcing censorship for these relays is something any country can and likely will implement at some point. The clearnet is dying because the evangelicals are killing it.

Oh yea, copyparty could do that. I might just do that too. My issue is more how do I grant them access to my network to get the thing tough? I currently use wireguard profiles and lock down where they can reach with rules and shit on a firewalla on a per account basis but that’s really complex and inelegant. It works and would working copypasta, but I kind of wish there was a simple webUI where I could define what a WireGuard user should be able to reach on my network with simple checkboxes by rules I have created over time. Probably wouldn’t tie into firewalla nicely though it could be more likely with OPNsense.

Hmm. Surely someone must have thought of that already. It would make adopting things like copypasta much simpler and less risky.

You made this on your phone on the bus ride to and from work.

I cleaned the cat box yesterday and considered that an accomplishment.

Fuck.

Oh definitely, but grindr has been terrible for a long time and has absolutely no interest in improving. Sniffies has a few ads but they aren’t invasive, just obnoxious. Grindr has so many ads you literally cannot use the thing.

Sniffies. It’s a web app you don’t even need to install but you can pin it to your homescreen to behave like an app too.

People still use Grindr?

I’m tempted to go back and club penguin that shit.

You know what? Good. Do it. Let’s see what happens.

That’s kind of why the rich are pushing AI development so hard. They want to render humans who could resist them obsolete.

Wait, what does this actually do? It looks like it isn’t an emulator or a front end so….what’s it?

Thanks?

I didn’t know AMD had managed to switch over to unified memory too. Managing that while remaining x86 compatible is quite an achievement!

I think the next big thing will be when storage becomes as fast as ram and they unify that too, getting rid of separate RAM. Working with data directly in place could have massive efficiency boosts. But the industry has been trying to get it that fast for many years and still not succeeded. And once they do, separate SSDs wouldn’t be possible, at least not as a primary storage, so it wont be an advance that makes sense for every use case.

Daves garage actually had a good video on the shared memory architecture recently that gives some insights on why apple designed this way they did. Don’t dismiss “different” as “trash.” You sound like an idiot when you do and it makes it difficult for adults to take you seriously. PC and Mac are designed with different goals in mind, so they tend to make different choices in their engineering, and you aren’t going to like every decision either side makes.

I will give you the RAM and SSD capacities are atrociously priced. USBC is perfectly acceptable for the people apple is targeting. Nobody is trying to use a MacBook as a server. Ignore the “pro” name in any consumer electronic device. It has nothing to do with anything other than marketing, and that’s not exclusive to apple. Apple did give up on the 8GB bullshit already though.

You need to take a closer look at how the M-series chips work and why they work they way they do. There are design considerations in how PC does things and Apple does things and they are not 1 to 1. What makes sense the PC world doesn’t always make sense int he Mac world.

Apple does a lot of anti-consumer bullshit which we should absolutely club them over the head for, but many of the things they pulled off with the M-series Macs were NOT possible with traditional PC methodologies. One thing’s for sure though, the hardware performs and it does so with very little energy. It’s so great a difference the entire industry is changing course to try to outdo Apple. They eventually will too, but they haven’t yet. They are just cheaper.

Oh I’m fully aware people can specialize their intelligence, focusing so much on some areas they neglect others and fall behind. However, that’s also a choice they made. That unbalanced tech tree was their own doing.

Modern Mac hardware is excellent. The software is good too, but’s more a matter of taste. Not everybody likes how macOS works but Asahi Linux has made incredible progress so it’s a daily driver option for some already.
