Self-hosting is no longer the performance drain it used to be now that HTTP/2 is a thing, as soon as the browser parses the page, the JS file is only 1 RTT away. Using a CDN for a single asset like jQuery requires a DNS lookup, TCP con

Very pretty, though syntax highlighting for HTML seems to be conspicuously absent.

I recently received a mass CCed email from an Amazon seller to 70 other customers (hello GDPR?) offering free products in exchange for 5 star reviews. There's no proper channel to report this. Tried to leave a review with proof of it a

They're great devices even with the stock firmware, but their wireless drivers are quite dated (no wave2 support, no WPA3, no 802.11r/k/v). They do have a beta package with wave2 support but it's not supported on the low

If you can live with only 802.11ac, I've had great results flashing OpenWRT onto Mikrotik wAP AC boards. Performance peaks at about ~400mbps TCP throughput at 2x2 MCS-9. WPA3 works without problems. For multi-ap, setting up 802.11r is

Doing so would mean you don't trust the Android security model. No app can be granted permission to affect the OS or other apps unless the phone is rooted and you give it root.

Yes, and you also have no guarantee that Cloudflare is sending them back to the origin over a secure connection. 3 of the 4 SSL options they give customers would be considered insecure by browser standards.

These are temporary deferrals, a properly configured outbound mailserver should retry for days.

I can't even get through to G Suite support lately since the only way is through the admin console chat bot, which is bugged and freezes at "transfer me to Cloud Support". Absolutely one of the worst products I have to use on

I tried the generic contacts and got no response. Filed an FTC complaint for whatever good that did, then blocked and moved on.

I really wish they would make the model numbers more distinct. "EPYC 7xxx" seems to encompass everything from 1st gen to 3rd gen, I have to look it up every single time.

I'm on several mailing lists from US companies that use Cloudflare country filters or similar technologies to block non-US traffic to their sites. So since moving out of the US I have no way of unsubscribing and no way of contacting th

Unfortunately permissions to access everything on every website are way to broad for a niche extension like this. There's no guarantee it won't be sold to a malware developer in a month. If you want to use it, I suggest cloning th

I've had Flexible SSL default on several times when setting up domains, it's not always a conscious choice. For small businesses who perhaps don't know any better, they move their site to CF, see the green lock in the browser

I'd argue it's worse than no SSL, at least then I have a signal from my browser that I shouldn't be submitting sensitive information.

This only helps nodes verify blocks, the mining is what uses huge amounts of power and that won't change.

For me, I get to run whatever I want instead of being limited to whatever mikrotik has implemented, eg CAKE QoS, Wireguard and dnscrypt-proxy. I also feel much more confident in the open source applications like dropbear and uhttpd than Mik

I do wonder how Microsoft verifies 3rd party drivers before pushing them through Windows Update. I've seen some very low quality drivers (and associated bloat of services and background exes) be pushed through, to the point where I dis

This is like saying Google is the search engine with the most links to malware pages. 36 IPs is nothing given how big ovh is.

The redirect happens at the HTTP level - if you don't see it you may already be cookied.

Interestingly this seemed to only affect resolver service. I use Cloudflare pretty extensively on all my sites, but only in DNS mode (no CDN / proxy). The hosts continued to resolve fine during the outage (following root DNS resolution

I actually had similar concerns, in my mind OVH was always one of the lesser regarded providers with cheap hardware and attracted not-so-nice customers judging by the amount of spam I used to get from their network. I ended up moving my per

100% agreed. I always cringe when I see some hot new startup going all out on AWS or other cloud services when a $60/mo dedicated box would have more than covered their needs. No point spending that money until they actually need to wo

Yup, that's me! The SA forums inspired a lot of my random side projects, the TF2 server integration stuff was especially fun (got me into reverse engineering Valve's game .so to fix bugs). I miss those days when I had all the free

Another cool thing about DNS - you only need the IP of a single root server to be able to get the nameservers, IPs and everything else to resolve any name in any TLD. The hierarchical nature of DNS is very neat to see in action. I built a t

Yeah, I can't wait to see how it performs. It's truly in a technology class of its own.

A fixed wireless ISP can be as fast and stable as a fiber connection or as slow as a 90s-era DSL ISP. The main problem is scaling - as you add customers, you have more users competing for a limited spectrum. To accommodate this, you have to
