  1. Re: How much for low numbered IPs? on Cloudflare Launches 1.1.1.1 Consumer DNS Service With a Focus On Privacy (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    I could add 10.2.3.0 alias to my linux box but Windows 10 said no. That's incorrect on Linux, no?

    That sounds like added hassle for no good reason.

    Don't let the summary get in the way of answering your basic fucking question. (Cloudflare allowed APNIC to use Cloudflare infrastructure for testing and learning about all the fuckers misusing 1.1.1.1). A back scratch deal.

    Maybe Cloudflare avoids him, too. Fuck, a lot of people know fuck all about VPN'S and think they do.

    This post hurt my brain. P.s. you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. We're talking DNS requests, "file not found" has nothing to do with DNS.

  7. Did you mean s/outside/inside? I know there's theories that Japan was going to surrender without the atom bombs and Hitler wouldn't have surrendered even with atom bombs, but I'm fairly confident the Americans and their bombs were the largest decider in Hitler's war.

  8. +5? Wtf. Rules ARE rules. They'll get EVERYTHING coming to them, not nothing. What is your mother tongue? It isn't English.

    Fuck off, you dumb cunt. You probably missed all the stories of legit ad networks being fooled into serving malware on big name sites? Perhaps you've heard of zero days? Do you work in an office with dumb, gullible people? Plenty of really smart, really careful people get infected all the time.

  10. Address the issue that Windows 7 development was stopped years ago, that had a schedule years in advance of ending support? This is only a surprise to morons. When you're clueless and make no fucking sense, you don't deserve a response. Anyone working in software development understands you put your efforts into newer, better code than spinning wheels putting in new features that were never planned or supported.

  11. Mint installation can fuck off. If install fails due to an NTP server going unreachable, they fucked up. Mint has also failed to install on a couple of laptops (without any useful error message), which blew my mind. Never had install issues with Xubuntu with many more Xubuntu installs. Everyone has their own unique experience with the millions of fucking distros. Some just work, some just fucking suck.

    What the fuck is your point? We all know what code Intel submitted to the kernel and got ripped by Linus for being stupid and shitty. Any developer or QA tester that claims they don't make mistakes is fucking stupid. This is an issue of a rushed fix that wasn't properly tested. How many fixes did it take to fix bash issues that were there for years? At least 3?

    If you buy VPS during promos, you can get one for $12/year. I have some for $6/year. I got a promo for 5 IPv4 with 2GB and 2 cores for $20/year. The cost difference is my time.

    What? Your ISP will see the traffic come from your pi. Your connection to the pi is encrypted, your DNS lookups from pi to whatever DNS server is easily known by ISP. Did you poorly explain your setup?

    Wtf? RAM is expensive. I was buying 32GB DDR3 kits for $90-110 years ago when RAM industry fucked itself. The current price for DDR4 is high and will come down later this year. Not that low, but lower than now.

    They are for convenience, not for being your main machine. I don't think anyone expects a tablet to completely replace a laptop. Perfect for jotting some notes down or quickly look something up. This is better than using a laptop in class, all the keyboard typing would be annoying in a classroom environment.
