Hahaha this was my family of 4, 20 years ago. I still remember it vividly for some reason, thanks for the reminder.

A better starting point would be a vps like DigitalOcean or Linode or Vultr. These days I’m not recommending anyone to use “cloud” (aws/azure/gcp) unless they have a specific need.

It's truly unlimited now. I know someone who's pushing 1Gbps constantly (selling Plex access) and Hetzner have no issues with it.

BTC wasn’t using that much energy in 2014, of course nobody gave a shit back then.

What’s the breakdown of that? $600 is 20% of your revenue, and that’s a lot.

That's an awesome story. While I've never lived in poverty, I got my first taste of making money by making bot for a FaceBook game in 2008 (WarBook, if anyone remembers that). I only made around 2,000 USD but that experience reall

It’s about getting the best quality copy. You also don’t have to wait hours for it to capture, which is important in the pirate scene (being the first to upload). > Does this allow you to download the videos without an account? No.

I see, thanks for the info. Btw, Cloudflare do offer new registration now, though it's currently marked as "beta", maybe only certain accounts have access to it.

CloudFlare also claim to sell .com at cost, their price is $8.57 per year. Porkbun's price is $9.03 per year (ignore first year promotion).

Yeah, NeXT acquired Apple for minus 400 million.

How are they making money with that? What’s the catch?

People on bus usually don’t have Google Maps open, and definitely don’t use turn by turn navigation.

> If you are homeowner, imagine what the price of you home could be if buyers did not have student loans. Are you saying student loan reduces house price? Sound like a win.

To me, the most outrage thing is AWS is charging $45k to mine $800 worth of XMR. Using dedicated servers, it would cost maybe $2,000-$3,000.

I was thinking the exact same thing recently. If you can setup and manage an infrastructure by yourself, you have pretty good advantage in term of cost.

It’s certainly not, not even close. Try this: set your brightness to maximum, put it in the direction of the sun and use another device to take a photo of them both.

Manufacturers need to do this at scale. It’ll be so expensive if they only make a few thousand units.

Can they force someone to LOOK at the phone? FaceID with attention check will need you to look before it opens.

It can be used in a modem to provide home internet. Also dual SIM phone are easier to find than laying cables.

This requires a physical cell tower and 5G receiver so it’s not as flexible as running a VPN client on your laptop.

Some of my friends make it a priority to switch jobs every 2-3 years, they think that's the fastest way to get ahead. I don't necessarily agree or disagree with that, but if that's one's priority, one would practice inte

By selling you get to access the money NOW, instead of waiting (and working) for years.

Even Apple themselves don't support a 10-year-old laptop. I think it'll be available until the product is marked obsolete by Apple's definition: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201624
