• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you have one, how much do you pay for a domain name? Any cheap registrar recommendations?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Here is a somewhat simplified explanation

  When you are registering a domain you are essentially just creating a NS record:

  mydomain.com NS <nameserver ip or name>

  Then when a resolver is asked a question like what is the A record for myserver.com it goes and asks the tld server (.com) what is the NS record for mydomain.com. the tld then responds with the nameserver ip. Then the resolver will query the nameserver directly for the A record of mydomain.com

  In practice there is a ton of caching going on here, but that’s the broad strokes

  Assuming an 8 hour working day that means your Internet is around 20Mbps?

  That’s pretty slow imo. IIRC the standard for broadband Internet in the US is 100mbps.

  At 100Mbps you should be able to download the game in about an hour and a half.

  I don’t know anyone cares, but I was curious about the math sorry

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In what way am I the product when using CloudFlare's free tier?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It costs cloudflare basically nothing to host free customers ( if you start to push real traffic you will get an instant call from sales). By being a free customer you are basically a guinea pig for all new features as they are rolled out globally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a uBlock Origin filter or extension for LLM slop in search results⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They added a shorts limit though. It prevents you from watching more than 15 minutes of shorts a day. Experimentally afterwards it seems to recommend slightly fewer shorts in your feed.

  Any thoughts on tape? Lto tape is designed for 10+ years

  Can I set the timer to 0 seconds?

  I feel like I remember reading that the pale moon JavaScript engine was broken and causing the capcha to break repeatedly?

  Let me see if I can find sources
