I will be very surprised if China can’t make their own competitive AI chips soon.
That's exactly the only thing this is going to do. They have the manufacturing to do it, it'll just take a bit of time. So we cut them off, they slump for a little bit, but then they become non-dependent on us because they've developed their own chip.
And now we can't compete at all.
lmao
Required? That’s quite a commitment. Is this a Cloudflare thing?
There are specific TLD which are required at the DNS level to be served over HTTPS. .dev is an example. The browser will physically not load a .dev domain over anything but HTTPS.
I self-host on a .dev domain. It's extremely simple with Caddy, as its HTTPS by default. Anything else is kind of a pain in the ass sometimes.
I also know of those who've had great success with Lego although I've never personally used it.
They said “useful,” they didn’t say “relevant.”
I'm really tired of this narrative. Far be it from me to defend a billion dollar company, but I've been using Google since its inception. For literally as long as its been available, and the issue people have with Google is that as a company they changed the way they do search over a decade ago, and people tend to not realize it.
Google went from returning information about "restaurants" when searched, because it was relevant to the search, to assuming you likely want to know what restaurants are in your area when you search for it. Therefore it pivoted from a relevancy based search engine to a contextual based search engine. Google attempts to interpret what you mean when searching for something and provides results based on the context of that search rather than just throwing results at you simply because they're relevant to the search terms used. And people are so fucking mad at them for trying to make search better.
Have they done a good job? Not really. Should they be literally crucified at the fucking cross for attempting to interpret results rather than just throw a bunch of shit at you and rely on the users technical ability to filter data? Not really...
Long story short, people need to take a fuckin' chill pill when it comes at least to Google search results.
It's evident to me that you're either stupid, or lack the ability to read. You make up your mind on which is which.
It's not possible for a company, no matter where they are in the world to permit users to do things which are illegal. Period. Proton cannot allow their users to use their VPN to use the torrent network to download IP. As with any company anywhere in the world. To live in some state of reality to be unable to acknowledge this is the most insane shit I've ever seen in my life. You literally are living outside of reality here... The sheer level of stupidity here is fucking insane to me, so I'll try one last time to put it into perspective for you;
I've said "Murder is illegal, no matter where you are. You can't just kill people" and you've said quite unironically "GLOCK allows their customers to kill people, they've made murder legal."
Do you genuinely not see how fucking idiotic and stupid you sound?
Many countries don’t even acknowledge DMCA.
This also has nothing to do with DMCA--which is a US law and cannot be enforced in other parts of the world. As I've said from the very beginning, theft of IP (torrent or otherwise) is individually illegal in all but less than 5 countries on this planet... It doesn't matter how you do it, or where you do it. It's always going to be illegal because all of the countries from which these VPN providers originate, it's illegal in those countries.
I've done my very best to explain this very simple concept to you--that you can't break the law just because you're behind a VPN and they don't actively pursue you for every little infraction--but if you still don't understand it after all this, then do us both a favor and just take a vow of silence for the rest of your pitiable life.
I mean Jesus Christ.
I guess at least someone has a little bit of backbone--though I doubt it will do any good whatsoever.
Using a VPN for accessing your private, home or company network is the literal reason for which it was created and designed.
It's in the fucking name, virtual private network. I don't have to mention it like it's somehow tangential or some kind of secondary and unused function of the technology. It is it's literal primary focus.
I'm having a conversation with a literal child trying to explain to them the purpose of a network software that is self-evident in the fucking name of the software itself, and you have the balls to say that I'm insufferable? This community is fucking insufferable--filled to the brim with 12-year-olds that don't know their ass from their elbow and assert with absolutisms without reading or understanding anything at all. It quite literally brings bile to the recesses of my mouth.
Sweetheart, if you're going to participate in online communication you need to keep up. And you need to read the entire statement and not just cherry pick like what you're doing now. Not once did I ever say torrenting is illegal. I said very specifically an exactly that torrenting IP is illegal.
That's not a contestable statement. It's not an opinion. It's a literal fact. There's no politics here, where I say a statement that you disagree with and we agree to disagree. There's no version of this where what I've said is wrong and you're somehow correct. It's a wholly truthful statement from start to finish... And you're pretending like it's not by cherry picking the very first part of it and convincing yourself that I'm saying that torrenting by itself is illegal and I think you know at least on some basic level of intelligence that that is not at all what I have said, and it's concerning to me that maybe you don't even understand that you're doing it. It's truly sad and pathetic thing to see...
Why are you moving goalposts?
There are no goalposts. This isn't my opinion. It's an incontestable fact that stealing IP is illegal in 98% of every country on this planet. You can choose to live denial in some virtual fantasy where you pretend that this isn't true, but you can't change facts. Period.
MANY support it.
There is no VPN on this planet which "supports" theft of IP. There are providers which don't actively seek to ban users for doing so. Which is absolutely not the same and you pretending that it is, is disgusting behavior. Truly infantile.
Well then explain me why I would need a VPN in the year 2025 with encrypted connections and HSTS being the norm
To connect to a network, which is private and virtual. As the name suggests, this is the reason for which VPNs were invented and are still used today. Using VPNs for "privacy" is how they're popularized for anyone who doesn't actually know what they are and how they're used. Which clearly includes yourself. To believe that there's no legitimate use for VPNs outside of their layman's usage is so incredibly fucking insane.
If you're going to speak about something, do yourself a favor in the future and at least do a cursory Google search to find out what it is that you're speaking about first so you don't look like a total idiot. For fucks sake.
If only we had a body of elected representatives that were able to do something about the situation.....
