Ever had one of your servers DDoSed before? Clearly not

I agree. I never use urinals for this reason, I will always go into a stall. Fuck urinals dude

Rethink DNS is a better solution than the DuckDuckGo vpn they mentioned

[–] darkstar@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Dude, yes! I would 100% buy that

Exercise dude

Oh my word that makes so much sense!

What is the brick for?

Yeah it's almost impossible to read

 

What are the most likely theories for what is inside Area 51. No crazy conspiracy theories, actual grounded theories that are probable or likely.

 

Not an advertisement I swear, but I honestly love language models, I specifically use Chat GPT and Gemini ALL the time.

I'm someone who loves research and learning. I always have questions on all sorts of things. Before GPT I would be googling things for hours each day, visiting forums, watching YouTube videos, etc.

Now with GPT I can ask so many questions on things I am curious about, and even ask follow up questions or ask for more in depth explanations.

I think I am also a bit ADHD and so my brain is always jumping around different topics which makes me curious on specific things. My latest is insects, specifically wasps.

I absolutely hate bugs, and wasps are the worst. But I am now learning more and more how important a lot of bugs actually are to the ecosystem. It's really a great way to learn and engage with topics when you can ask follow up questions or ask for more details on specific aspects.

TLDR: GPT has replaced 90% of my research that Google used to be.

Important Note: Please be aware language models can be innacurate and prone to mistakes, so always verify the data from other sources if you need accurate information and not just general knowledge.

 

I know it's an odd question, but where I live phones get stolen often. My phone doesn't have the option for an eSim, which is a problem because 90% of the time when a thief steals a phone they take out the SIM card immediately, meaning I wouldn't be able to remotely lock or wipe my phone.

Should I consider glueing the SIM tray shut? Or are there alternative less permanent measures I can take to keep my device secure?

As per title, I'd like to know if there are any third party apps worth it still?

I'd ideally like a web app that scrapes the shit out of Reddit causing more harm than good. Anything like that available? (Even if it's a website that scrapes I'll be happy)

 

Apollo had this feature where you scroll past a post and it automatically marks the post as read. This is huge because it allows you to easily doom scroll without seeing the same content twice :,)

 

As per title, I would love a toggle option to allow in app links to open in my default browser automatically.

 

So I'm curious with the whole Ledger seed backup controversy, are Ledger devices actually safe? Should I continue to use my Ledger? I don't have much so I'm not too concerned, but I'd like to still sleep peacefully at night regardless.

 

I don't have any software on my phone to round corners so please excuse the square.

The fediverse is a vast and beautiful place, just like our universe. I think our app icon should go deeper and represent more than just a simple spaceship or a mouse.

 

I read a post about it but the post was deleted and I can't find anything on google. What I gathered from the post before deletion was its some kind of religious thing but it scares most people?

 

As the title says, lemm.ee is defederating instances that are allowing thousands of spam bots to be created on them. Will we be taking similar action? What is the game plan here?

 

I've read some things online about it all but I'm not a total IT boff. Is it really true that Brave browser won't be able to block ads once the changes are made next year?

Ps. I use Firefox with uBlock but my SO and most of my clients absolutely love Brave
