[π Cosmos 0.12 - HUGE update! All in one secure Reverse-proxy, container manager with app store, integrated VPN, and authentication provider, now has a Full Monitoring suite with alerts and notifications (including presets for anti crypto miner hacks!) ππ ~reddit
Usenet is paid, usually 2+ subscriptions, a Usenet/backbone provider + an indexer.
That's how it should work, but many services have been increasing pricing with email warnings for the last decade.
My friend has PS+ and it has multiplied in price for 3-month intervals without him ever confirming the new price. He's had it for a decade without touching it and genuinely wouldn't know he's being charged so much more than he agreed to if I didn't tell him.
This is in Australia which normally has better protections for consumers, but it's possible we don't in this case as it's happened to me with every subscription I've ever had they send a n email and then start charging an amount I never agreed to.
The only exception was AEW+ via Fite.tv which was in USD, that was the only time I ever lost my sub when the price changed, which given it went up +40% I was glad they handled it respectfully.
We would need Google to aggregate instances together for the benefit of search results, but the host instance is great to see.
Maybe when Reddit removes indexer access, Google may put some effort towards replacing it, but I wouldn't give my hopes up waiting for Google Search to get better.
The laptop is a Dell G15 5515 Ryzen Edition 3050-4GB | 5600H | 16GB 3200Mhz
The laptop has a 120Hz panel which is okay, but too small and awkward, I generally play on my mechanical keyboard in front of the monitor for better neck/joint support. I am happy with my overall setup, I would just like a full 120+ on the monitor and I have been watching HDR content scaled down via Plex to 8bit.
Both Bethesda & Blizzard needed some kind of change, I'm sure that in a decade we'll be regretting Microsoft's control of the market, but in the meantime at least those two companies might avoid ending up like Bungie.
The new 7840U AMD laptop processor has integrated graphics at a total 15W.
Our rollout was severely impacted by political interests, but the Australian government tackled this at a national level with building a National Broadband Wholesale network for all the ISP retailers to resell.
It was a lot easier however given how underfunded our existing monopoly telco left the old network.
Unfortunately Rupert Murdoch stated in New York to shareholders that the network would undercut their Australian business, they then used their 67% newspaper market share to back the opposing party and have them downgrade the rollout of the network from fibre to copper.
Now half the country can't get a full 100mbps and the upload isn't synchronous for 99% of households.
I meant in the case where it would be hurtful, obviously it wouldn't be reasonably hurtful to say it in a context which it isn't, that was the point of what I was saying.
I would say the same words if I had a reason to discuss whichever word, neither of us are directing it to a person with an explicit intent to cause harm.
It's a frequent occurrence in Reddit that I read a typed out "Letter-word", not knowing what swear/slur as the same letter could mean multiple different words in my regional English dialect.
What frustrates me is that words that could harm require effort to ensure the context is clear and respectful, people who just swap it with a Letter-word don't care enough to treat what they are saying with importance.
I've previously asked what a comments letter-word was referring to as I couldn't even find it via Google, the responses where downvotes and being told I should know what it means.
Hurtful words either shouldn't be said at all, or if being referred to need to be treated with delicacy and respect as if their harm matters, saying them while not saying them is the laziest and most disrespectful way of handling that.
