Fly.io signup IP, huh ?

A proper warrant must be respected and adhered to …

… but was it a proper warrant or just a bluff and, further, was the customer notified?

I insist on knowing the answer to this question and if you are a customer of fly.io (I am not) you should too.

This is exactly the thought I always have.

It seems impossible to imagine that there are any layers of defense in depth involved here… Because it should be so easy to avoid.

Don't call me Shirley.

“ Or, are you saying this is a tactical move from a higher level (Chinese gov interests)?”

What country produces all of the ASICs used in contemporary bitcoin mining?

The faster we get to a good enough open model, the sooner it gets burned to hardware, and the sooner the transition to (relatively) low tech, low margin, high volume cards to run it on …

… and those are built in China.

I don't do these kind of tasks but I imagine that in the 'pi' harness I could just instruct the model to use command line pdf/latex manipulation tools to create all manner of document outputs ...

Dns4eu is free, has adblocking, and you can deploy it right now.

I build things.

I build them on machines I own placed in racks I have they key to.

There aren't any resource limits to hit and legal service is brought directly to me - not to a provider nor middleman.

There also isn't a global MITM inserting itself between me and my users.

I can't imagine doing it any other way and I implore you not to build things on complex, fragile, highly abstracted foundations.

"... because HTML email support is must have nowadays ..."

I don't find this to be the case.

I use (al)pine exclusively and with only three or four hacks/workarounds manage a normal, modern email workflow.

Unlike SMS where my unix-based telecom results in green bubbles, in the email world there is not even that small indication that anything is different on my end ...

"Recently took a bus from an airport in Nordrhein-Westfalen ..."

Can anyone (Germans ?) confirm that this was, indeed, the only possible mechanism to pay for this single bus trip ?

I'm genuinely curious as my experiences in Switzerland - as late as last November - were that many different durations and service levels of paper ticket were able to be purchased, with cash or bank card, from a ticket machine.

Is the experience really that divergent in Germany ?

OKI ? As in, my cellular scanner ?

Thanks.

This seems like an obvious configuration option - I can imagine someone disliking the italics as well…

"Been running it almost barebones vanilla for a couple of months. Just a bunch of basic extensions and some skills."

I am also using pi exclusively after having had decent success with openhands but begrudging all of the docker infrastructure ... and all of the emojis.

My only pain point is that in my extremely common and boring workflow, which is pi inside of gnu screen inside of OSX terminal.app ... all reasoning/thinking text is blinking ... like old fashioned ANSI blink on a BBS.

I cannot figure out how to disable the blinking thought/reasoning text ...

I use and maintain an "ipod" in the form of an old pixel 3 with 128 GB of memory that has no SIM card and no software installed except for VLC.

It stays in airplane mode. It has a real headphone jack.
