You have to sell it right. Telcos pay for transit. They don't pay for what stays in the confines of their network. IPFS within a single networks environment could greatly reduce their internet transit, saving them big bucks. Sold right

That was great. Thanks for sharing. The submitted patch and the linked dupe are pretty great too.

Mandating safety is not new or draconian. We do this all the time with regulations and laws because people can't always be trusted to make decisions that aren't selfish. Vaccines fit into a category of things that seem to be perso

I remember the first time I sent a reply to bugtraq. I was using a friend's server and linked to a tarball for a set of tools. He called me pissed when the box in his room started spinning like crazy. He pulled the DSL connection after

I have guns. I like them. I even have an NRA membership that I can't get rid of. The NRA is not just a bogeyman, they're also the real problem. I'm with you. Sensible gun owners want (and should want) sensible gun ownership r

Nice whataboutism. You got some ammo to back up that claim? The GOP is nothing if not unified to a fault. They're strong because they will tow the line to hold power. (Mitch hates trump and Cruz got in line even after the mud slinging

There are no free speach implications to shutting down trump or parler. Every service in question is a private company. Every service used had a TOS. Freedom of speech does not extend to private establishments. Just as you cannot come into

He stayed quiet longer than most people did and eventually it seems that his compulsion to speak out against the evils he saw won out. At least nothing he said was in any way false. Full disclosure: I voted against Obama. Twice.

It is. Even the companies I integrate with that require it know it's full of pitfalls. When you've been doing ipsec for two decades and it's a checkbox in your compliance sheet though, you check the box and hopefully you'

You'll lose more than that. If there wasn't a viable Apple solution, half my dev team wouldn't be able to use it, so 100% of my org wouldn't be able to use it because I can't maintain half a solution. You'd be

The private entities are not the justice department. They are not the judiciary. They are not lawyers and they are not juries. They do not require criminal conviction before taking action. Your question is irellevant. But to give you a part

And not everyone "right of Biden" is being deplatformed, unless you think everyone right of center is on Parler. Parler is a cesspool of hate groups and conspiracy theories, many of them Nazi or Nazi adjacent.

I don't think that's the goal. I think the goal for those companies is to not lose business over this. This is the free market at its best. Market pressure has made the math pretty simple: if N customers won't do business wit

If you're using gsuite already, it's a usable failover. I send all my alert notifications there, as a fallback already. Dragging people in was trivial. It's better than the group SMS that one person tried to use.

Wife is vegan, kid doesn't really like them and I just don't eat a lot of food. Nobody is really all that interested. We eat some but the chickens are free range and since the last move, we haven't found their nesting ground.

Now I just need to know if these worms would harm my chickens. They (the chickens) already try and eat foam packing material that gets blown out of trash cans on windy days. The worms can't be worse, right? We don't eat the chicke

Know what would be great? Markdown support. The WYSIYG is full of bad assumptions and has been forever. In the beginning, we could at least opt out but that's long gone. I actively encourage companies I consult for to use anything but

Define "level." Is there the same caliber of talent? Absolutely. Are there an equal number? Not even close. Is the ratio of tech to non tech in the ATX area the same as the bay area? Probably not but it's growing. More and

Having used Zoho, the best thing I can say about their service is that it's not gmail. It's a very mediocre offering. Most email is but they have an all-in-one service that's entirely "meh."
