Actually, I think the main issue is the getting rid of them part. There’s billions of them, they’re small and they reproduce fast.
There are lots of species of mosquito, and yes, they are essential to the ecosystem. But very few species actually bite humans. Some studies have argued that not a lot would happen if you eliminated just those species.
We call it Disparos Unidos de América (United Shootings of America) here
A coworker put it better than I ever could:
“Microsoft is the only company which has ever managed to make a shell that takes 10 seconds to autocomplete”
And I think that’s poetry.
(Yes, I know there are many more reasons why pwsh sucks, but there’s beauty in the simplicity of this one)
OpenVPN in TCP mode wrapped around Stunnel. That’s the thing that works.
I have it set up to bypass VPN restrictions in some networks, but it also serves to bypass a lot more stuff if you know what you’re doing.
DPI will only see TLS traffic, and assume it’s HTTP. You can even try to fool it by modifying the packet headers, so dumb enough DPI will think you’re connecting to the site you choose.
Management is obsessed with the cloud and “serverless”, because it’s cheaper short-term, and they don’t have to care about eventualities like hardware breaking.
Long-term, it would be far cheaper and way more secure to host locally, especially for data storage.
But we all know long-term thinking is something that management can’t do. And of course, the PR doesn’t help at all.
I also had a machine that would randomly crash on Windows, but not on Linux.
I’m pretty sure it was some sort of hardware failure, as it also sometimes failed to boot Linux. But if it booted Linux, it would be stable until I shut it down.
At a lower efficiency than before, and a lot of stuff now won’t get blocked because of the limit in definitions.
I can’t tell you about the text, but the whole site is vibe coded. The CSS, the js, everything. Which doesn’t really inspire much confidence on the text, especially as it’s explaining how to bypass the claude detector.
I never had an issue with a GTX 1660 Ti on Arch. It’s been 5 years.
Older cards (in my case, the 970 M iirc) are slightly more annoying because Nvidia doesn’t support them anymore. So you can’t just install the generic, up to date, Nvidia driver package. You have to use Nvidia’s website to find the latest driver that supported them, and then install that one through your distro’s package manager.
Afaik, Nvidia supports all cards from the 16xx series upwards in their driver, as of right now.
