No one thinks VPNs are “magic bullets”. I don’t know why this gets repeated ad nauseum.
Ooh, I know why! It’s because YouTubers hawk their preferred (sponsored) VPN as if it was silver bullet and that it’s dangerous to use your mobile device out in public or worse – public WiFi – without it.

As a quick note - location shared was not very precise (but still in the same postal index), I guess due to the fact that iPhone was connected to WiFi and had no SIM installed. If it was LTE, I bet the lat/lon would be much more precise.

That’s what aircraft are! We have personal aircraft already. They’re expensive and complicated and impractical.

Depends on your definition of “better”. Better bitrate and quality? Yes. But that comes at the cost of reduced range (since it’s more dependent on a good connection to the source device).

- Comment on Five Men Convicted of Operating Massive, Illegal Streaming Service That Allegedly Had More Content Than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Prime Video Combined 7 months ago:
IPTV is the name of the pirated cable TV streams. Personally, I consider commercialized piracy to be a bit distasteful compared to the free and open source route, and I have the know how to self host my own streaming service.
Although it’s not piracy, another free option to consider for live TV, if you’re within range of TV broadcasters, is a digital TV antenna. I’m looking into that since not only is it free and legal, it’s also the best picture quality, not compressed like IPTV (legit or pirated) or even cable.

Stream quality was worthwhile during pandemic. I participated in quite a few movie/TV nights streaming to a few friends on Discord.

Ah yes, story we hear every week outta murica, them white folks, shooting their automatic assault rifles at the cops and getting away with it
I’m not saying it’s the same but the Bundy standoff comes to mind as a recent example where a buncha good ol’ white boys barricaded themselves in a compound, and they weren’t bombed. They didn’t fire upon cops but they did imply that they were ready to if they were raided.

I thought the Boring Company was more about pretending to want to dig holes to stifle public transit in order to bolster EV sales… Am I mistaken?

Ehat kinda neighbourhood did you grow up in where people couldn’t even bother to put a number on their house?

I remember when reddit ads were off to the side and unobtrusive, and often had games or jokes in that space to encourage you to allow reddit past your ad blocker.

My 3080 Ti could definitely burninate some villagers if harnessed correctly.

FYI, a browser plugin called Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES) exposed the vote breakdown on Reddit as well, although like all scores on reddit, it was fuzzed to confound cheaters.

I miss the form factor off my HTC Desire Z (T-Mobile G2 for Americans). It had a neat, flip-out keyboard, swappable batteries, and a compact, 3.7 inch display.

I don’t think there’s any need to be snide about this comment. A 2015 Honda Civic is objectively superior in almost every way to a 1967 Corvette, but the 'vette is inherently cooler in a way that the Civic will never be. It’s just nostalgia for a bygone era, that’s all.

That’s not very typical; I’d like to make that point. There are a lot of these planes going around the world all the time and very seldom does anything like this ever happen. I don’t want people thinking these planes aren’t safe.
