“Just got to this” doesn’t really seem like a lie to me. If they said “just read this”, that would be a lie, but “just got to this” implies they didn’t have time to reply/think about it, without commenting on whether they read it. Honestly to me “just got to this” implies it’s been on their to-do list but they didn’t get around to it until now. If they hadn’t read it at all saying “just got this” or “just read this” would make more sense.
I don’t see how? Normal HTTP/TLS validation would still apply so you’d need port forwarding. You can’t host anything on the CGNAT IP so you can’t pass validation and they won’t issue you a cert.
You would think…
CGNAT is for IPv4, the IPv6 network is separate. But if you have IPv6 connectivity on both ends setting up WG is the same as with IPv4.
Yeah, I can see that. It’s definitely more like a search index than a web crawler. It’s not great at being a search index though, since it can synthesize ideas but can’t reliably tell you where it got them from in the first place.
Calling it a web crawler is just innacurate. You can give it access to a web search engine, which is how the “AI search engines” work, but LLMs can’t access the internet on their own. They’re completely self-contained unless you give them tools that let them do other things.
Only the 14% statistic was explicitly about IPTV, the others are about “consuming content illegally”. It seems like maybe there are multiple surveys involved?
Only giving a /64 breaks stuff, but some ISPs do it anyway. With only a /64 you can’t subnet your network at all.
I really doubt it. We could give everyone on Earth their own /48 with less than 1% of the IPv6 address space.
Giving a /48 is spec, but a lot of ISPs are too stingy :/
Going to other planets would require a total re-architecting of our communications infrastructure anyway. There’s such distance too it’s not really viable to have a shared internet. Even Mars would have up to 22 minute latency at peak. So I don’t think it makes sense to plan our current internet around potential future space colonization.
Even so, IPv6 is truly massive. We could give a /64 to every square centimeter of the Earth’s surface and still have IPs to spare. Frankly, I think the protocol itself will be obsolete before we run out.
“You wouldn’t download a car” is a meme edit that got stuck in everyone’s heads. The original PSA actually does say “you wouldn’t steal a car” and basically was what you describe in your last paragraph.
All of your temporary privacy addresses will be coming out of the same subnet, so it’s clear they all belong to the same people.
Ultimately the privacy extensions are just bringing IPv6’s privacy back in line with IPv4, because without the privacy extensions every single device has a separate IPv6 address based on its MAC address whereas in IPv4 most consumer networks have every device sharing a single IP.
Fediverse software tends to be kind of hostile to convenience features people have grown accustomed to. Recommendation algorithms, for example. Lemmy is on the cutting edge for having a “Hot” sort.
I know Mastodon has historically been pretty hostile to even more basic things like being able to search posts.
I get why they think like that, and I honestly agree with some of it, but it inevitably creates a culture shock for outsiders coming from corpo media. I think that plus the network effect means the fediverse will always be kind of niche.
Do you have a link to people talking about running a relay on a raspberry pi? I find it hard to believe that’s possible. A PDS, sure, but a relay requires multiple terabytes of storage alone and plenty of bandwidth/CPU/RAM that I just don’t see a raspberry pi being able to support.
I’d be curious to hear about any progress on setting up new relays though.
The free version of ChatGPT is 4o or 4.1-mini at this point. You can’t even access 3.5 without paying, ironically, since it’s legacy now.
Years ago my ex was trying to get me into anime and they decided to show me Made in Abyss and it put me off anime for years
Being able to sell FOSS is one of the freedoms “free software” refers to.
Honestly though I think the thing that struck me the most and I found kind of scummy was their “value statement” where they were advertising the OS by comparing it to the prices of the proprietary software is includes alternatives to. You misreading the website wasn’t an accident, they designed it in a deceptive way IMO.
If they were more honest about it, I wouldn’t have any problem with them charging for the convenience of having everything pre-bundled. Of course you could set everything up yourself, but Linux is notoriously finnicky. People want a complete experience, they want support. They want the slick branding.
As far as I know Zorin is FOSS, for what it’s worth. It’s mostly just bundled FOSS software with some slick themes and accessibility features, plus a few in-house system apps which they do seem to provide sources for.
They mention that it’s open source on their website but they don’t mention FOSS probably because the libre/gratis distinction is confusing for people.
Tbf it’s a comedy show, it being informative is mostly an accident. This one is rare for being factual and not about why we should nuke the moon or which cartoon characters are invited to the cookout or something like that.
