It'll be quite telling to see what Apple says when this claim from Apple is proven false: "Claims that we’ve shifted this approach or policy are completely false."

Ok. Start with all new datacenters. Require them to be built with infrastructure that allows for throttling of servers to occur when the utilities want to throttle.

This isn't good. Then again, the amount of power going in to these CPUs is way too high. Take the AlphaServer DS25. It has wires going from the power supply harness to the motherbo…

Microsoft is making it too easy to convince people to use anything else. I'm moving several people to BSD (Linux is too messy).

Examples?

Doing anything can be life threatening. We don't need to assume that people who decide to do a thing are the same as you.

Anyone who claims that pointing out the difference between new and used is the same as telling you to ignore the used market is just an idiot.

Did you read the article? The administration's excuse / explanation is that it's not illegal to remove data because it already exists elsewhere: > said the information will be hous…

You're right that you didn't say all. What you did write implied you use them for "AI protection", although you didn't say you did do that. So if I wrote, "You would put" instead o…

This is orthogonal to the discussion.

Serious question: You put Cloudflare between all your domains and all your visitors without looking in to how this would affect your site's reachability? If so, that's interesting,…

That's hopelessly naive. A "misconfiguration" is the excuse they use after the fact when there's enough outrage that they have to put things back the way they were.

Is it just me, or is the site not working right now? It loads, but it doesn't show the date, and the buttons don't seem to change anything...

While this has lots of generally good advice, handwavingly dismissing IPv6 because of the lack of understanding is one glaring shortcoming. After all, systemd could be described as…

There aren't many companies I'd trust for stuff like this. Mullvad definitely stands out. I'll be looking forward to giving this a try.

The performance is incredible... Now when will AMD put some real effort in to reducing power usage?

That's nice, but who is behind this? Why should we trust them?

I wonder if anyone has made it easy to run the Pi Hole software on regular Unix-like systems without containers and without machine specific binaries. Perhaps I'll have to give tha…

You're conflating a few different issues: the newness of a domain, and the quality and cost of of your VPS. Some email providers don't like brand new domains, yes, but if a domain …

It's absolutely amazing to compare Adventure on the Atari 2600 with a fancy, ray traced game today. What's even more amazing is that both have the ability to capture our attention …

This doesn't feel like an oversight or an accident. It'll be interesting to see how they try to explain this away.

Simple: Don't look at the logs. Bots are a fact of life. Secure your site properly, follow good practices, set up notifications for important things, log stuff, but don't look at t…

There's absolutely no data to back up the suggestion that sites regularly suffer from DDoS. It's like talking about getting murdered - it happens, and there are statistics, but if …

...which happens to the average site owner how often...?

How many times do they have to do the same thing before we modify our presumtion?
