Once the ai bubble breaks for llms it will drag general machine learning down with it once panic sets in. People wil dump any stock that even faintly smells like ai.

Some actually valuable business may disappear, on the other hand those that survive and are undervalued may actually be a good investment opportunities.

This is not financial advice, to gamble your money is dumb.

Sir, this is the stock market.

People order with their feelings, not facts.

Thats a super weird question but yes there is someone named Ariana i encountered online this year who I would not be surprised to be a Linux user.

Depends what you consider the baseline to call something “coding”

Plenty of kids dabble with Redstone in Minecraft, there is also stuff like this:

Honestly not having a static public ip address would be a dealbreaker for me, reason to change isp.

But thats not always an option.

My old isp got a new ip every full modem reboot and a way i used to circumvent this is with duckdns. It’s a free dns service i used before i had money to pay for my own domain.

If i recall correctly they have a desktop tool that connects to your account that scans for your current dynamic public ip and then updates it for your freesubdomainname.duckdns.org which is what you use to connect.

Oh sure, brainfog on my part

“I agree with a lot of the people who get mad about the DLC approach. I don’t really like the Icarus approach. We needed it to survive,” he said. "I actually think a lot of gamers don’t realize that 99% of devs out there are sitting there going, ‘I don’t like this.’”

Game devs so often get public flack for decisions outside their control i really wanted to highlight this part

Well said.

Did they ever give any reason why they even consider it an acceptable thing to do?

Imagine making an art piece to be displayed in a museum only to find they allowed an interim with next to zero experience to paint over it.

Because people are not taught the basics of Lan network vs Wan network and corporations love to exploit this.

During the aws outage i heard multiple people be upset with their isp because “the wifi is broken”

I never heard if twingate but i see no reason why not to selfhost Wireguard.

Its a proven open source vpn.

As far as a little research went. Twingate is proprietary software and caters to enterprises, it has some open source alternatives that have a similar functionality. Most if them using Wireguard under the hood. Look for tailscale/headscale or netbird.

Supposedly Australian aboriginal groups have lived in the same region for 40k+ years.

They have regional consistency, genetic continuity over which culture gradually evolved each generation.

Does that count?

I don’t know the type of flashes causes by this glitch but the post specifically warns for epilepsy.

That part of the post might be wrong, that’s completely fair and i trust you have less to gain from lying versus a post craving clicks.

Though my point is, if it is dangerous. What are they supposed to look out for? The “recommendation” should be google stop doing this shit that puts people at random risk.

If it’s just annoying, then its just a glitch, the same for other photosensitive but not suffering epilepsy people.

If you have epilepsy, watch out so you don’t randomly see something that could potentially kill you.

Great job google.

My wallet was a gift and has way more sentimental value, the money is relatively replaceable.

Also nice subtle advertising for the artists more “mature” work.

Ah i completely missed that context.

I thought we were just discussing consumer subscriptions. I don’t often think about corporate entities as customers because often the product is a complete different class i don’t qualify for and i have radically position on economic organisations

Interesting thing i just found out is my internet providers has a plan for business which is identical to the one i own except its cheaper and doubles the upload capacities.

As far as my level of knowledge , people at work come to me because i understand computers, but not for finances.

Must be different requirements indeed. But yours don’t sound like typical consumer requirements. Why do we need the same scale as a large corporation?

I can respect the corporate ability to serve thousands at a time but a typical household simply doesn’t need that.

Me and a few of my friends all work in IT and each have a dedicated proxmox machine that runs all of these things just fine. Nextcloud has so far only failed me once when i needed it and it was actually a cloudflare issue and still worked locally.

Navidrome i use all day every day and need accessible from anywhere. I have not updated or checked the container since setup and it has been stable as a rock. Fuck spotify which doesn’t have the bootlegs i listen to anyway.

The endgoal, which i archived is that i have no need for subscriptions and actually own my data which is the point right?

My actual hobbyist goal is to create something that can persist locally if the internet one day disappears.

My jellyfin can stream 4K just fine, even remotely through a vpn so i am not sure what you mean.

Depending on transcoding you might require a gpu but still not a standard “gaming spec” pc cant handle.

Come to think of it, my internet provider does allow upload up to 25mb/s and this is the highest end available for consumers in my area. Technically thats a subscription but realistically its bill similar to water/electricity.

The upload limit is also purely and artificial cap, they could easily quadruple it if they wanted.

Also Realistically usecase for 4k movies is usually your home couch so it be streamed on Lan speed. Quality is often better than common stream providers because they do cheat to keep bandwidth down.

What kind of subscriptions require large infrastructure?

Music/media/cloudstorage can all run on a single pc/server costing maybe half a day of setting it up by most people at the level of having switched to Linux.

Acces to a big multiplayer game server is the only one that really comes go mind.

If it’s just for a few people there is very little need for maintenance, rarely any developer work.

Me, a Neurodivergent: i don’t need any of this pesky chemical stimulant stuff to get through life.

Also me: Addicted to both caffeine and sugar.

Few things are so normal and natural as a human consuming substances that change their conscious perception and mind.

Caffeine, often forgotten is by far the most consumed drug in the world being used by roughly 85% of people globally. “First coffee, then work” is a testimonial to how benign this fact is.

But what if you don’t like caffeine, what if you simply prefer the effects of something else? It’s your body, no one should be able to tell an adult what they can do with their own body and mind.

Just be conscious about it.

Know what you are taking.

Understand why you take it.

Study, learn what it actually does and how different doses/methods affect you.

Find how it does not affect you, what it can’t fix.

Look for help when you need it and don’t feel shameful for asking such. You are human after all.
