Are the big tech still running this as a big beta test, without telling people?
Personally I ignore anything until the first search result. And I disable/hide anything AI-related in results. It's bad enough with the load of AI-generated SEO spam going around.
In the meantime, do we tell people not to trust AI-generated content in search pages, opening actual search result links instead?
The first thing I did was install more RAM. Then everything I run is via Container Manager (their Docker version, which is a bit behind).
It is a great little machine. I use it for OneDrive and Google Drive backup. I use it for Office 365 and Google Workspace backups. And because it is always-on, I use it as the exit node for my Tailnet.
This. Four years and nothing to show for it. So stop screaming. One side is as responsible for the outcome as the other.
Stopped reading when I saw this person's name.
People who keep saying PC when they mean a Windows or Linux machine. As if the Apple machines weren't PCs too.
Here is some interesting comment from a telco staff https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=76&topicid=315...
What I meant is, interoperability between iOS RCS and Android RCS won't work until telcos deploy their own servers and Google fallback to those.
I use a third-party router (Synology) and only had to check the IPv6 box to get it running—even with multiple VLANs in my network.
There are plenty of IPv6 services around. If a service is behind Cloudflare, it's likely IPv6 will be enabled by default. It is the same with other services, including some cloud providers now giving IPv6 addresses but charging for IPv4.
The author forgot Step 1. Ensure your ISP provides IPV6 services.
Otherwise, good documentation for the record.
Interoperability depends on how RCS is implemented behind the scenes. Just because iOS RCS is here doesn't mean you can assume your Android friends will receive your messages or vice versa.
iOS RCS relies on mobile operators's infrastructure, while Android RCS uses Google services.
You can see where this is going, right?
Unless your telco invests in infrastructure to support RCS in-network, those two ecosystems will not talk to each other.
I believe this needs to be tested by other parties, results checked, etc. Like science.
Because claims like this ("diagnose," "small drops," "quick") were made before, people ended up in jail for the tactics used trying to protect the lies when they couldn't make it work.
I use this feature, and there are options to control Affinity, Geolocation and others. I don't see this discussed in the article, so I'm not sure why Cloudflare load balancing is mentioned if the author does not test the whole thing.
Their Cloudflare wishlist includes "Offline servers should be detected."
This is also interesting because when creating a Cloudflare load balancing configuration, you create monitors, and if one is down, Cloudflare will automatically switch to other origin servers.
These screenshots show what I see on my Load Balancing configuration options:

New is extra data collection and Copilot "understanding" your activities based on those records.
> Peel was an existing brand with customers and an email list. We had a basis to launch to.
A new product for an existing brand with a ready-to-go mailing list. Good story from a design and production perspective but nothing exceptional for marketing.
Well, then. That settles it. The "philosopher" has no idea what he's talking about.
We confirm emails before creating an account. Visitors fill out a form with their email address and receive an email containing a URL with a hash of their salted email, which is the actual registration form.
Emails will not be sent to temporary email addresses, which we check using the DeBounce API. We also don't send emails if the IP address is a proxy, which is checked against another API. We also check the StopForumSpam API.
The request and registration forms are protected with Cloudflare Turnstile.
We also block registrations from a list of countries that are not a focus of our content.
I used to have Google reCaptcha v3, which returns a score. Scores above a specific value were rejected. I stopped using Google's service when they unveiled plans to charge with a low threshold for the free tier.
If you want to use the forum, you will register. If not, good.
