The official dock is 20% off too.

Ah, and much of that energy would be absorbed on the way in. So the additional energy absorbed on the way out depends on how the surface material changes the reflected light or later radiates the absorbed energy.

But you don’t need to host your local OS in the cloud to run an application in the cloud.

Edit: clarification.

Cool so not only do you need to power your local device you also need to power servers and eat up loads of internet bandwidth. Super efficient.

All so they can force you to pay a monthly subscription… Thank Gaben Valve is investing so much in Linux gaming.

I suppose but if you are reflecting it into greenhouse gases then the air temperatures go up instead.

No, it’s not possible unless the heat is being transferred outside of Earth and that requires a ton of energy. Also Kyle Hill did a video where he did the math and the cube required would be over 30 km^3

Cloudflare yes. Even if you aren’t using tunnels it will help obfuscate your real ip. If you are hosting personal services you can also block access from countries you don’t expect to access them from.

Also it seems most bots scanning domains are checking www and the base domain url. I recommend pointing those at a vps or something like GitHub or substack if you don’t need it for something else.

Use a reverse proxy that 404s anything besides the subdomains you are actually using. Always use wildcard certs to avoid exposing subdomains and obfuscate your subdomains for common services to make them hard to guess.

Isolate your servers from the rest of your network with vlans if possible.

You will never be fully immune so all you can do is add more layers and roadblocks.

But an individual can be any user on any instance. Even one of their own creation.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain except death taxes and you server going down.

Federation already makes that completely impossible.

I don’t agree with the lack of usernames of course. There’s no community when there is no way to associate posts with individuals.

Karma farming has always been one of the worst aspects of the other place. Repost bots will sustain them long after the humans are all gone.

Throwaways are still an issue with banning.

Some kind of participation based scoring would just bring us back to farming and alienates lurkers.

Account age is unreliable.

Hmm… I hate leaving the burden on mods but karma has too many negatives.

It’s… complicated. The US is more like the EU. Every state is practically its own country. Every state has its own health department. State wealth varies greatly and each state has their own opinion on what level of trust should be placed on federal government. The one example we have of federal health care (VA for military veterans) is shit.

Maybe things will change based on the current trajectory… corporate buy outs have been rampant and experienced doctors are retiring to cash in before they can’t afford to run their own practice. It takes weeks to get appointments and most corporate doctors just want to stick to the treatment script they are provided. In other words, corporations are doing exactly what most people fear the feds would do.

The block feature is your friend. Use it liberally and don’t feel bad about it.

Seriously, if everyone blocked communities they disagree with or aren’t interested in instead of resorting to the old toxic behaviors that would be a huge improvement.
