This increasing interest in biometric data, not just from "X", is concerning to say the least

Because GitHub has load balances that direct traffic occasionally through a server hosted under Chinese jurisdiction.

Where the hell did you get that from? Do you have a source for that?

I feel like this link is a scam itself lol

If you're downloading manually there aren't really a lot of advantages to this I think, unless you search through 10 or more sites every time. For automated downloads using sonarr/radarr/lidarr/.. it's pretty mandatory.

For me personally it's easier to watch a video than to read a blog post or whatever these days. That's mostly because I can listen/watch while doing chores. However, if I need to use it later there's just no way I can find it or find what was in it. I like the format of Theprimeagen in particular when he goes over blog posts, I can always refer to that when I want to. So I'd say:

  • videos as a replacement for written media: no
  • videos as an addition to written media: yes

I think Supabase does this well. The documentation is there, videos are more specific and lengthy

If your whole brand is based on being an asshole, I don't see why it would be any different internally tbh

There are still plans with data caps in Belgium, this is limited to the "cheapest" plans though at about 30 EUR a month

So that's about 2.95M USD or 2.7M EUR, I wouldn't go to prison for 18 years for that amount of money that's for sure.

What is with everyone's obsession, government or company, to moderate the web. It's seriously depressing and exhausting.

Did they try turning it off and not on again? 🙃

Ah thanks, I couldn't find anything about it. I run all my stuff on a server behind a Tailscale network, so nothing is accessible without VPN access. I thought it might need connections from other instances.

It's always been that way lol
