No port forwarding really kills the utility though - I mainly use the VPN to do port forwarding (e.g. for video games, Plex, etc.) as my ISP is shit.
Like I’m not worried about state-level de-anonymisation, I just want to be able to share services remotely and have a minimum level of anonymity.
They should really mandate open firmware and bootloaders, and even spec sheets, etc. for deprecated hardware.
People created fake photoshop images long before AI…
What is the Mastodon Lemmy.world equivalent? Like a big, neutral server with minimal censorship and bullshit, and access to most other servers?
It’s good, but I wish it were even more like X-COM with loads of deaths and managing a roster of heroes rather than just a small party.
Especially since BG3 has done the small party adventure thing so well.
Shadow Empire - best strategy game I’ve ever played.
It’s more of a tactics game than an RPG really.
Like D&D X-COM.
The government and corporations are the same class of people. The government could have prevented that with more conditions and involvement in the grants - but they didn’t because they’ll get kick-backs from their friends later on.
To make it competitive with local Internet, so all services work well. On high latency connections lots of stuff like websockets, etc. will struggle too.
What about rural farmers’ children who want a good education? What about Cubans who are denied deep-sea cables service by the USA?
This is incredible technology that can help tens of millions of people.
“Just be a rich urban American” isn’t a good answer for the rest of the world’s population.
What is the actual technical reasoning? These all have active tracking, I can’t imagine it ever being an issue for missions (compared to defunct Soviet satellites with no tracking, like Kosmos 2221 and Kosmos 1408).
It’d be cool if Starlink could also be used to replace some base stations, although I guess the huge power requirements are an issue there.
It’s a shame to see technology held back due to political interference like this though. Hopefully China will achieve it instead. Imagine how much this can help the developing world - like high-speed internet for Cuba (if the USA doesn’t block it) and rural Nicaragua, etc.

So that makes it okay for massively popular LLM models to spread defamatory lies about him?
ProtonVPN for port forwarding, Mullvad for easy usage (Wireguard on Linux).
I use vopono on Linux too.
It was the fashion at the time /s
How long until people will be carrying Raspberry Pis over the borders for their own hotspots? /s
It’s crazy how quickly mass censorship is becoming commonplace though. From shadowbanning on Reddit and Twitter, to court blocking in the UK, Spain and Italy.
Wasn’t the bigger controversy about law enforcement and intelligence agencies buying it to bypass the need for warrants?
With that budget I find it hard to imagine you could beat the Raspberry Pi, but please post what you do find!
Luddite nonsense. AI will drive productivity gains which will help research in photovoltaics, nuclear fusion, carbon capture (also needed for SpaceX’s Mars mission), etc. and improve society.
I host a server, I forward the port, my friends can connect to the open port on the VPN side.
My ISP does not offer port forwarding.
