Correct. In fact many, many companies have ASNs. Little companies all the way up to large ones. The key difference for an ISP is they allow you to route traffic through them. Almost every company that has an ASN blocks traffic from being routed through them, assuming they know how to configure that and that they have different peering points. Valve most certainly does not allow you to route through their network, they already have enough traffic just doing their own CDN stuff.

More like daily now unfortunately.

WOOOW ✋😃🤚

If I don’t own the product after purchase, the button shouldn’t say “buy/purchase” it should say “rent”.

I do like the idea of industry standard license.

My thoughts are:

• They need to limit EULAs to something like 600 words.
• Make them binding and non-changing to the product purchased, only newly purchased products can get the updated EULA.
• They should make a Ethics Policy (things like no cheating, be kind, no swearing, etc.) separate from the EULA. This Ethics policy can be updated whenever.

Still doesn’t matter if something is “heavily taxed” because regardless of how much tax, you’ll never own more in taxes than you made. So if you got a 10,000 bonus and it was heavily taxed at 60 percent, you don’t somehow have to pay like 15,000 in taxes or something on it. You pay 60% of 10,000, leaving you with 4,000 left over. This is typically done before you even see the money, if not ensure that you keep funds aside to pay for the tax.

Also looking briefly at Japan, it appears that their income tax is a bracket based system similar to the US. So again, even if you go up a bracket, you’ll never own more taxes than you make. Honestly, people need to stop thinking in brackets when it comes to taxes, all you need to worry about is your “effective tax rate.” That’s it, you don’t need to worry that your income pushed you into a 29% tax bracket or whatever. All that matters is your effective tax rate is 24.2% or whatever. You’ll never own more money because you “moved” into a higher bracket, because that’s not how that works.

Make sure the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” is off. I think it’s off by default. That setting will reboot your computer no matter what as soon as the update is done installing.

How is it fiddly for Windows users?

What do you mean by that? Generate a new private/public key pair every time you setup a new TPM? Or when you boot the system or something?

You can’t do that since vulnerability is the connection between the TPM and the CPU, you need to encrypt that path.

The private key would have to stored in clear text somewhere. Potentially if you had non volatile space on cpu that to store the private key, that might work. But if you’re going to do that, might as well just use an ftpm.

I don’t know of any fiber that the core is 125 microns. Can you link to one? Neither Single Mode nor Multi Mode fiber is that large.

Holy crap yes, honestly I get so tired of these firefox posts. I only get a Lemmy once a week or so now just cause every post is literally just how bad Chrome is and why you should switch to Firefox. XD

Sure, but the glass core is only 8–9 µm wide, it’s a minuscule amount of glass compared to copper cables so it’s not really worth it to melt it down.

I’ve always envisioned this type of utopia to be robot based, with a few machines thrown in for sure. I’ve thought if you can robots plant, grow and harvest the raw food. Then have autonomous trucks drive that food to processing plants that then have robots and machines processing it. You then again have autonomous trucks drive it to the grocery “store” that then have robots placing the product you could in theory make all food free*. (add a billion asterisks to that last statement) Making the food free would probably require the entire economy to migrate to robot workers as much as possible or at least have it be where the robots make other robots so at least they are low cost/free to make. It’ll never happen, we’re totally destined for a Cyberpunk future instead of Star Trek future, but it’s at least fun to think about.

I can say with full confidence this is something you’ll never actually need to worry about. Law enforcement isn’t just going to grab laptops and pull keys. Plus, it’s easier for them to grab the laptop while it’s logged in anyways. 😐

I once updated an ACE for an ACL that was used for a PBR. It crashed the 4500-X VSS about 20 second later, brought down client access into our Data Center. Fun times!

I’m also not looking forward to anything DNA Center. I’ve played with it and it’s so much hot garbage I can’t even begin to describe how much I don’t like the product already.
