  • A proof of work challenge is infinitely better than the alternative of "fuck you, you're accessing this through a VPN and the IP is banned for being owned by Amazon (or literally any data center)"

  • I'm assuming IA will continue to host their historical archives of Reddit, they'll just not have any new captures after this. Unless IA has said otherwise, it'd be very strange to wipe their archive of Reddit

  • The time it takes to publish a book vs a YouTube video completely changes the kinds of things you'll be able to learn about. Books won't tell you about current events, discoveries or the latest technology news.

    How many books have been published about how AI is affecting society? I'm assuming there's a few given it's been years already since ChatGPT 3.5 was released

  • Oh replay attacks, that makes a bit more sense. Honestly I've never been on such a poor network to run into that. I don't know your situation, but I'd be doing anything I could to get away from that ISP if they're actively manipulating your traffic

  • What's a reply attack? Do you have people activity MITM-ing your connection? Personally I've found Wireguard performance to be significantly better, especially on spotty mobile Internet

  • There's a big difference between a reference implementation and a proof of concept. A proof of concept just shows it's possible at all, but a reference implementation is meant as a reference for "you should do it this way". Expect most companies to just directly copy the reference because they'll feel it's a waste of time developing their own system that's in compliance.

  • For anything cinematic, the intent is usually to get more dynamic range. If you turn it up enough that the dialogue is audible, then the explosions will be as loud as an actual explosion. Fine in a movie theater, not so much in an apartment complex.

  • Feel free to provide the Australian equivalent of the quote if there is one. The country can be substituted for any not-yet-Fascist-controlled country and still apply, in my opinion.Different countries might have different symbolism instead of a flag and cross, but the sentiment is that Fascism disguises itself and evolves to fit in wherever it goes.

  • Oh I'm sure they have lots of problems with the system in America. They're going after anything they think they've even got a chance of affecting. Their website also says they're trying to ban porn on X.
