Allowing yourself to think that one party is "good" and the other party is "bad" just feeds into their fiction that keeps the duopoly in place. Make no mistake; Democrats WANT Republicans there, then they have a Boogeyman to point at when they don't get anything done. And of course Republicans want the Dems there for the same reason.
Why not just use a separate switch and wireless AP for redundancy? Wi-Fi can be your backup if your wired switch goes down. Assuming your Dells have Wi-Fi cards, that is.
......what? The fact that this post is at the top of my feed is proof enough. They're absolutely right, it's purely speculation with very little evidence that has been upvoted to shit.
Also, "Lemmy is full of open-source Linux nerds" is NOT a controversial statement. I am an open-source Linux nerd. YOU are an open-source Linux nerd, looking at your comments. This place is absolutely riddled with nerds, look around my dude.
Lol. I used to be a Delta fan, but honestly they've been just as shitty as the others recently; they don't seem any better than American or United. At least they're still better than Spirit, I guess.
I need to remember to cancel my Delta Amex before they charge me another annual fee, it ain't really worth it anymore IMO.
4k streams with very little compression at around 50 Mbps. If you use some decent compression (like most streaming services do), you can cut that in half. That is a very reasonable bandwidth for the average American.
Nobody NEEDS 4k, but it's not like some crazy luxury or placebo. If I'm watching a 1080p stream on a big 4k TV and sitting back on the couch, I can absolutely tell the difference. 1080p is tolerable, but I would definitely choose 4k if it's available.
Makes sense, Gabe said in an interview that making that $399 price point was "painful". But I guess the point is that the Deck sales drive Steam game sales.
I would bet they're basically losing money on the $399 model, but making money on the higher spec models. No other manufacturer has been able to offer similar performance at that low price point (yet).
Basically, you're routing your traffic through their servers so you want to know if you can trust them. Anything that goes through a proxy server or VPN server, the owner of that server can see EVERYTHING you're doing. The most popular VPN providers will submit to third-party audits so that we can be (relatively) certain that they don't keep logs of what you download and hand them over to the authorities.
Generally, if it's free, you don't want it. You already know the rule: if it sounds good to be true, it usually is. You're telling me that somebody is spending their own money to run a server? Servers are not cheap. AND they're going to protect me when the police come knocking? All for free??? I smell bullshit.
It's possible, but the fact that they're also asking for donations makes me think that they're not getting enough money from ads. Also, if this site gets popular and gains a reputation, most advertisers won't touch piracy websites. So the only ads they'll get are weird porn sites and male enhancement pills that don't pay very much.
Also, I don't want to have a theory on where the servers are, I want to KNOW where the servers are. If they're not being transparent about that, then my honeypot sense is tingling.
Looks cool. But it seems like it's just somebody else's server acting as a proxy for you, right? So I'd want to know the same things about them that I'd ask of any proxy service. Where are their servers? Do they keep logs? What's their privacy policy?
Regarding it being free, I see that they're serving ads and asking for donations. So the service clearly costs money to run. I doubt it stays free forever, and I hope those servers aren't US based. 😬

Ublock Origin allows that as well, but it's not as easy as NoScript. So, IMO that's a perfectly valid reason to prefer NoScript.
