Would you mind rephrasing your comment, as currently I really don't understand what you're trying to say at all... edit: I originally wrote out a long comment about exactly why your comment doesn't make sense to me, but after

You can toss a coin on which one to believe, since either way you'd believe the same thing...

The comment you replied to is saying that this new Linux equivalent is only doing 2D, not that the Windows version (which you had on your HP) is only 2D :)

I respect your judgment, so I've edited out the first bit, but honestly I feel it's not an unreasonable thing to say in response to genocide denial - it was said about the claim, not about the person, and in my opinion it's a

Maybe you did mean heresy, which would be funny (but a perfectly valid opinion to have)... But I suspect that's a typo, and you meant 'heresay'? :D

Had they said "the array will be so large it'll have its own gravity." then you'd be making a valid point. But they didn't say just "gravity", they said "gravity well". > "First, let us

Worth noting: "The study was limited by a lack of available information on the time or duration of illness, making it impossible to determine whether autoimmune conditions preceded, co-occurred with or followed affective disorders.&qu

I don't think they mean "just a label" as in "not worth caring about", they just meant that the label is an indicator of quality, not the cause of quality, and as such products without the label aren't automati

I can't find any results searching for "POTDEZ", was that a typo or could you clarify what you meant?

It's not something you rush out at the last minute, but it might be something you plan a long time ahead as "our interesting stuff might not work out, so let's do a huge redesign too to be confident we can pretend to be relea

I disagree, for the reasons stated by the person you replied to. Historically, being told that a voice recording is AI generated would be enough to tell you to expect basic TTS robotic voice, but with advances in AI voice generation we&#x27

I disagree, the vast majority of people I've known who gamble understand perfectly well that the odds are against them, they're not choosing to do it because they wrongly believe the EV to be positive. In some cases it's beca

It's not a device that I personally am interested in having, but I am both interested in, and very impressed with, your having made it - well done! I'd love to read a full write up of how you designed it, what parts you used &#x2F

I just did that search, and several pages talk about "smart DNS services" which also proxy your IP... not a single result suggesting that DNS itself is relevant. The thing is, I'm not guessing, I'm someone who has actu

by swores 1y ago
Yeah I'm not accusing them of lying, sure if they use a service that also includes proxying then that can bypass geo restrictions it just has nothing to do with DNS or the country the DNS server is in.

by swores 1y ago
If it worked for you, that could be because when you changed your DNS server you also changed your public IP, or possibly because you used a service that doesn't just provide DNS but also caches content meaning you were accessing it wi

You're mixing up different bits of tech, streaming services (like BBC's iPlayer) don't care (or know) what DNS servers you're using. To get around their geo-blocking you need to change your IP address, either by using a
