It's a somewhat preoccupied and privileged pov.

There absolutely are 10h+ workdays in europe where ppl are not treated well.

tbf there are reasonably priced bare metal hosting providers that don't have maintenance or other regular outages.

bittorrent will make best use of what bandwidth is available. better think of it as a dynamic cdn which can seamlessly incorporate static cdn-nodes (see webseed).

it could surely be made to care for topology but imho handing that problem to congestion control and routing mechanisms in lower levels works good enough and should not be a problem.

although e2ee does raise the cost for an attacker, the perceived gain in trustworthiness of the system is unjustified

sounds like the primary goal was better attestation

lack of touching grass seems to be a prohibitive factor; besides the radiation

the 'novelty of the ways' is usually not nearly as much a factor in adoption than if said change would contribute to the amassing of revenue.

maybe $author has contact information or even a donate button up somewhere

exit node is not really a colo.

though there are commercial residential-proxy services available

> Firefox natively supports sidebar tabs now without needing hacky extensions

glad you mentioned it!

edge and opera do too

well done, replying to continue a great thread

maybe spacebar heating is a reasonable requirement after all and the joke was just that it's easy to get it wrong

ping is synonymous with echo-request, which is largely transport agnostic.

but you're right

supposedly not besides being a good shibboleth

can relate

though i guess the 90's are _the_ best tech era by far and for some time to come, because that's where capable and modular computing machines became a real commodity.

amazon (among others) is doing this for some time

rfc's have been written and forgotten, please calm down

probably also depends on the kind of flag

politics still clinging to the idea of identifying ppl by obvious traffic meta-data

seems easy to confuse % of plans with % of ppl. probably a lot of obscure use-cases in there

seems kinda obvious

become active again. e.g. alumni programs can be eligible

imho "free wifi" is not to be trusted in any case

what is stopping you from taking the ovh-vps out of the equation?

> Teenagers are also biologically predisposed to occasionally making bad decisions.

humans are

is that enough to heat your house in the winter?

realization that data is valuable does not imply a privacy consciousness.

google is in the business of selling access to that information.

though, i can see the wisdom in painting the alternative even worse.

seems like meta and google jump thru a lot of hoops to maintain the sharade of e2e-privacy whereas with telegram you know upfront that everything goes to someone else's computer and call it a day

add this to mpv.conf

   cache=yes                                                                                                                                                                     
   demuxer-max-bytes=5G                                                                                                                                                          
   demuxer-max-back-bytes=5G

almost makes it sound like implementation quality does not play into viability
