You can use Ray of Frost to turn them off too.

The official dock is 20% off too.

Most of the stuff on YT kids already feels like it’s AI generated. I can’t imagine what it’s going to turn into once they go full AI or what kind of damage it may cause.

But you don’t need to host your local OS in the cloud to run an application in the cloud.

Edit: clarification.

Cool so not only do you need to power your local device you also need to power servers and eat up loads of internet bandwidth. Super efficient.

All so they can force you to pay a monthly subscription… Thank Gaben Valve is investing so much in Linux gaming.

No, it’s not possible unless the heat is being transferred outside of Earth and that requires a ton of energy. Also Kyle Hill did a video where he did the math and the cube required would be over 30 km^3

Cloudflare yes. Even if you aren’t using tunnels it will help obfuscate your real ip. If you are hosting personal services you can also block access from countries you don’t expect to access them from.

Also it seems most bots scanning domains are checking www and the base domain url. I recommend pointing those at a vps or something like GitHub or substack if you don’t need it for something else.

Use a reverse proxy that 404s anything besides the subdomains you are actually using. Always use wildcard certs to avoid exposing subdomains and obfuscate your subdomains for common services to make them hard to guess.

Isolate your servers from the rest of your network with vlans if possible.

You will never be fully immune so all you can do is add more layers and roadblocks.

But an individual can be any user on any instance. Even one of their own creation.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain except death taxes and you server going down.

Federation already makes that completely impossible.

I don’t agree with the lack of usernames of course. There’s no community when there is no way to associate posts with individuals.

Karma farming has always been one of the worst aspects of the other place. Repost bots will sustain them long after the humans are all gone.

Throwaways are still an issue with banning.

Some kind of participation based scoring would just bring us back to farming and alienates lurkers.

Account age is unreliable.

Hmm… I hate leaving the burden on mods but karma has too many negatives.

It’s… complicated. The US is more like the EU. Every state is practically its own country. Every state has its own health department. State wealth varies greatly and each state has their own opinion on what level of trust should be placed on federal government. The one example we have of federal health care (VA for military veterans) is shit.

Maybe things will change based on the current trajectory… corporate buy outs have been rampant and experienced doctors are retiring to cash in before they can’t afford to run their own practice. It takes weeks to get appointments and most corporate doctors just want to stick to the treatment script they are provided. In other words, corporations are doing exactly what most people fear the feds would do.

Baseless personal attacks… nice…

At least you understood I’m saying it’s not enough but maybe you missed the part that said

This is only meaningful to people on Medicare or Medicaid

I’ve made no such claim…

A meaningless gesture is a statement intended to make you feel better about the situation without solving the problem. You might also call it a symbolic gesture or a token gesture.

All I’ve said here is it’s not enough.

Factual support that executive orders are easy to undo? EOs aren’t law… they are orders to federal agencies on how they are to operate. It’s as easy as writing a letter and signing it…

Here is a list of things Biden did on day 1.

Here is one of the day 1 EOs undoing Trumps previous orders

Executive power is very dangerous. Just look what happened when control of the internet was given to the FCC in the name of net neutrality. Executive orders are how the US ends up with a dictator.

Why are we relying on politicians to help out our neighbors?

Another 63 million on Medicare and yet it’s still a bandaid on a gaping wound that might get ripped off any minute.

This is only meaningful to people on Medicare or Medicaid because Executive Orders only give the President the power to guide federal agencies (in the executive branch).

It’s a rather meaningless gesture to be honest. If a President can do something via EO then another President can undo it just as easily.
