Good job!

Interesting. Wikipedia “meme” article says it originated from the book in 1976 while “internet meme” says it’s from 1972.

MacOS updates became free in 2012, the word “meme” is from 1972.

That’s true for any update though.

Maybe this meme is from the times they weren’t?

Very few games require malware. They are not adding this requirement now, it was already there. American company requiring you to install malware to use their products is no better than a Saudi company. So who will be affected by this? A few dudes who pretend they like freedom but still install malware game on a malware os?

Why blame Cloudflare though? Make your own service or push other companies to offer their services for free like Cloudflare. If Cloudflare is “fucked” like you want to, do you think the web will become more free? No, those 20% of the web will either be gone(because it’s not free anymore), or will move to those really big corps that own the other 80% of the web.

Can’t you just use vpn?

Wasn’t Microsoft in a bad state during Balmer and it took Nadella to change focus from Microsoft developed products to cloud and selling Linux that saved it?

they’d prefer to stay out of content moderation completely rather than try to find and boot all the Nazis

With how loose this word(and others) is used nowadays by people from Israel, USA, Russia, Africa and maybe other countries I prefer Cloudflare to stay that way.

I can explain. Cloudflare does not block VPNs, some website owners choose to block VPNs using Cloudflare services.

Cloudflare itself is very open to VPNs, like you can use their free services to proxy your VPN over their network bypassing country providers blocking. You’ll have to pay a lot for such service in Amazon or Azure.

So their business model is that poor people can receive cool services for free providing marketing for their business clients to pay for even better services. And they do provide cool services for free and even better services for reasonable payments.

Closed web means Google, Amazon and Azure own their business and the web. They don’t want that neither in business sense nor in moral sense.

Edit. I’d like to emphasise that Cloudflare is the only CDN that provides their basic services for free to common people, making the web available to common people, making the web more free.

I’ve seen a couple of threads here where people shit on Cloudflare(including this one). They are stupid, don’t know how the web works and are out of their minds.

Is there propaganda that is fascist in nature? It’s bad propaganda then. Can you give an example? Propaganda should always be for all good and everyone’s happiness. Specifics don’t matter, you can bring the followers wherever you want later.

That’s true, but you still follow some propaganda. You are aware of it, great, but what’s the difference between someone following the propaganda being aware of it and someone following it blindly?

So some of the gentry is not so landed anymore?

You have a good point about Alyx. My opinion using VR is that there’s a point with graphics when it feels comfortable, any better doesn’t give much to the experience like if you see pixels your brain just thinks that’s how the world is. I don’t include objects being interactive into graphics here, but what people generally perceive as graphics ie textures, lighting and other stuff you need gpu for. Also there are very few such interactive objects in beat saber or superhot though you still feel being in vr.

Said like a true lord.

I envy you.

That’s probably the best how copilot could optimize it.

From my experience graphics doesn’t matter much in VR if FPS is fine. You can play HL Alyx on a what was sometime ago affordable gpu and get almost the same experience as with 5900.

On Mars? TIL
