This… makes no sense to me. Almost by definition, an AI vendor will have a datacenter full of compute capacity.

Well it doesnt fucking matter what “makes sense to you” because it is working…
Its being deployed by people who had their sites DDoS’d to shit by crawlers and they are very happy with the results so what even is the point of trying to argue here?

Its just android with the termux app open…

For those shitty AAA games with a download size of 200gb it probably matters, but those games dont matter to ME, so i dont care.

192 is okayish imo

Tailscale is a private VPN tunnel into your home network basically. There would be nothing that is accessible by the public.

Idk if Microsoft Studios is the better choice here lol

Seems to be somewhat dead yeah, cant even ping it.

For SMS KDE connect + VPN into your home network should work. Remote calls is a tough one tho.

How much yall wanna bet that this was done by utilizing a security flaw in their anti cheat system?

The down votes are from people who work in IT support that have to deal with idiots that play with things they dont understand.

Yup this is the way. The resulting .kdbx database file is encrypted so you can even synchronize it over an untrusted provider. Otherwise you can use something like syncthing to keep it strictly peer to peer.

Nah it just doesnt show the x axis label. The last spike is the May number. It has a data point for each month, but that many labels wouldnt fit.

Yeah i was gonna say, this is old news. The +0.42% is the last spike on this graph.

That is basically what they do yes. ISPs are the only thing standing in between the entirety of humanity and out of the box selfhosting. With fixed IPv6 IP addresses you could build and sell devices that just self host all your stuff out of the box. You could just sell complete normie people a “cloud box” that they can slap in their home for a one time cost that will take care of all their cloud storage and smart device needs. You could integrate it into any smartphone OS ootb so that all you have to do is scan a QR code on the “cloud box” and it connects all your apps that need it to it.

I have never even heard of it so i doubt it.

You didnt show the bottom 5 lines of the output, so i was wondering if it was just hiding there.

Could be regional too or follow some other intransparent pattern.

It depends on the VPN. Google just blocks anything that it knows to be a VPN IP, so if they dont know the IP yet, they dont block it.

Generally you should assume that deletion is not guaranteed when it comes to fediverse stuff. In this case it seems like a bug, but other instances might also be configured to just refuse deletion requests so you can never be sure anything is gone. This also applies to the internet in general tho.

PC Cases arent usually biodegradable if i recall correctly. What did you do to the poor thing?
