Pisa is bad too, it is just the tower and crazy tourist prices.

There is huge gap between 3.5 and 4 especially in coding related questions. GPT3.5 does not have large enough token size to handle harder code related questions.

I assume all vpn services accessible from china are run by government and they monitor the traffic

I would suggest more learn by doing approach. Learning OSI model etc is nice, but it is quite jargon :)

Use some old PC as a server, and get some network cards into it, and use it as firewall/router. Route your home network/NAT/DNS/DCHP through it. Raspberry Pi’s are nice, but their hw is still bit limited.

OPNSense is quite nice and easy free and open source firewall/router solution.

If you want to add bit of flexibility, you can use some virtualization platform like VMware in to the machine, so that you can run OPNSense in it, with some other virtual servers.

Then when you get things working, you can start looking in to VLAN’s, because they are quite important part of enterprise networking. Most cheap switches nowadays support VLAN’s out of the box.

Modern disks have encryption enabled in disk level. This will change the encryption key on the disk, meaning that in seconds all data in the disk is in unrecoverable state.

This is way better than writing the whole disk 0’s or rm -fr /

I have opposite, I don’t see enough NSFW content, I miss my daily boobs. Sopuli.xyz (great instance btw) doesn’t federate nsfw, so I have to switch accounts, to jump to NSFW side.

Is there any way to combine two accounts into one feed?

Here in Nordics datacaps outside of mobile are unknown. Unlimited is standard here.

Combining EV and plugin hybrids together is quite strong indicator that this study has agenda attached.

Plugin hybrids were the most unreliable. Tech wise all hybrids are more closer to gas powered than EV’s. Of course plugin hybrids are more unreliable, you have two engines, so you get issues from both.

Dondong, both can be true, they are not mutually exclusive.

I use rasp as Bluetooth receiver for my home assistant sensors (Ruuvi tags mainly)

If those users are just dead weight to them, it makes business sense to even convert 10% them to their main ad filled product, and let the 90% go away. They want to go public and sell, they are definitely last stage of pulling a cash grab.

I assume Trump just didn’t pay the guy who made it

This is just plain stupid.

Forcing browser to block certain sites is like making car manufacturers make the car shutdown if you are trying to smuggle foreign cheese in to France.

Tech illiterates making the decision here.

Yes, just ignore

Counter question, what is the use case here?

I have only ever needed this feature with NSFW content. In Lemmy I have easily and better way resolved it by having another account with nsfw instance. This creates even better outcome than the multi community feature. All clients easily support two accounts, and you can switch between them in few presses.

Krita is really good, smallest learning curve from Photoshop

Krita is the most Photoshop like that I have found. GIMP is of course awesome, but if you are used to Photoshop, GIMP is bit though to learn.

If archive.org, or any other web scraper is able to pull personal information from a site, it means that the site is already breaking the GDPR.

GDPR protects personal information, not public texts.

Because instance holds identifying information about EU citizens (email, nickname), it means that the instance owner is the registery holder, and they must comply with GDPR.

I believe email address of the user is not shared between the instances, what makes things quite good. Nicknames are bit more problematical, because they can be considered as personal identifier.

Some GDPR experts maybe should write template registery document that instances can use. And the delete of account should be handled between instances. Posts do not need to be deleted, but nick should be changed to [deleted]

That quote from GDPR talks about specific job role that large company is by-law requires to have, called data protection officer. He/She is responsible that company is GDPR compliant.
