Microsoft is very hostile toward its users. They added Ads in the paid version of the operating system. You can't uninstall Edge. Even if you remove Edge, which is difficult, the following Windows update will reinstall it. Instead of searching for the next big idea, how about you fix your dam OS first and stop installing stupid games and showing Ads? Keep it Microsoft with your stupid games, and Google has nothing to worry about you. LOL.

The "Statement on AI Risk" by Sam Altman and wealthy individuals fails to address the potential impact of AI on job security. Rather, it focuses on concerns regarding war and human extinction. Despite my attempts to raise awareness about the issue, I have received negative feedback. It's important to consider how the everyday struggles of families may affect their ability to purchase products and services such as phones, streaming, gaming, and others when AI takes away their white-collar jobs. Maybe there will be war because there are no jobs while rich folks are getting rich. I hope I remain wrong.

How are you going to enforce it? Most AI bots scrape HTML and other data without permission.

TSMC is at risk due to geopolitical tensions, particularly between China and the USA. These risks led to Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway selling its stake in TSMC. Investors are worried about that. That s my best guess. Apple also opened three factories in India and other places to mitigate this risk.

You can easily find helpful coding resources like Stackoverflow, blogs, and forums through a simple Google search. Relying solely on one source is not advisable, I think. Cloudflare, AWS, and now OpenAI are all central clouds. This is why we need independent forums, StackOverflow, blogs, etc. Otherwise, it is yet another monopoly. Anyway, it's always important to explore multiple options for accurate information. At least, that is how I do it. YMMV.

Caddy cannot be found in the default repositories of Debian or RHEL. This raises the question of why one would use such a server. Personally, I am hesitant to download a random pre-built executable from Github, even if it is open source. I would much rather use the apt or dnf version, as anything else seems like just another toy server.

I guess, now is the ideal time for me to experiment with LXD or Docker images that are based on Alpine Linux or Debian Slim for QUIC support for Nginx.

> WireGuard is highly secure, but it’s not designed with privacy in mind.

I'm sorry, but I must inform you that the Toms guide contains affiliate links to OpenVPN services. However, it is important to note that neither OpenVPN nor WireGuard can guarantee your safety if you are being targeted by government agencies. The guide's attempt from TFA is to promote these VPN services as a solution for anonymity and censorship (deep packets inspection can block all VPN protocols) avoidance is misleading. VPNs are primarily useful for accessing corporate or home resources and viewing geo-blocked streaming content (say from your home network) on insecure networks like hotel or cafe WiFi.
