What’s this drama now? The “anti-piracy” person sounds like a troll. Especially if they’re shit posting like this on a piracy-focused community. 🤦🏻‍♂️

krnl386, 9 months ago

Heh, good point. Also piracy = free advertising of their game and brand.

I was hoping they are OK with piracy also given the game genre… basically f*ck the system/anarchy, no?

Cloudflare sells domains at cost. So yes, cheaper than any other registrar (including NameCheap and Porkbun), except maybe those who sell domains at a loss as a promo to rope you in and then kill you on the renewals.

Integration into their stack is a nice side effect, but really inconsequential. You can have your domains registered with any registrar and have your DNS hosted by any DNS hosting provider. Heck, you can run your own DNS servers if you want to.

My order of preference for domain registrars is:

1. Cloudflare (doesn’t support all TLDs, unfortunately)
2. Porkbun (does have wide TLD support, and has no-bullshit pricing, albeit higher than Cloudflare)
3. Namecheap. They’re cheap and Canadian… no other reason than just a backup to have.

Huh? You mean you can’t separate the domain registrar from your DNS service provider?

I have my .ca domains on Porkbun, but DNS is hosted through Cloudflare. Porkbun supports DNSSEC records as well, so that’s not really an issue, just a few extra steps.

krnl386, 9 months ago

Technically they won’t. They won’t host OpenNIC TLDs, for example. However, you can have your domain registered with any registrar, and as long as you specify Cloudflare’s assigned DNS servers for your domain (DNSSEC records can be set too), you should be OK.

Ditto!

The “do you know where your files are?” reminds me of their past security leaks and breaches. 🤔

Holly shit, this is pretty damn awesome!

krnl386, 9 months ago

No worries!

Ditto here. On the other hand their built-in adblock seems airtight. I’d like to see how it fares against Google’s/Youtube’s anti-adblock measures.

I’m in Canada and haven’t been hit with those yet… either that or my adblocks are working really well. 😉

Devs aren’t the brightest when it comes to sharing their code. There was a open source router firmware dev that for some ungodly reason, distributed the binaries to his router firmware builds through OneDrive. Why, I still wonder to this day… especially since his source code was on Github. At least use releases, if you’re that lazy? Still far from ideal, but at least it’s marginally better and more convenient that %#€$& OneDrive. 🤦🏻‍♂️

What does this have to do with the dark web?

krnl386, 9 months ago

Yup, I’m a proud subscriber of that community. Not sure that it has to do with this browser thread though.

this might help with secureboot. By the way, Googling your problem concisely (e.g. ventoy secureboot acer laptop) can help find solutions, or at least give you ideas to try before asking here.

Back then emails were limited to 2MB. Nowadays an average Office document is that size and email size limits have grown 10-100x.

Love the gentleman XDAs. I use them myself.

Amazing work! Thanks so much for working on this project. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I seriously need to look into Paperless NGX. I’ve been hearing a lot about it.

krnl386, 9 months ago

All solutions that integrate with banking sites I’ve ever encountered were nothing more but ugly hacks, IMHO. I’m curious about FileThis, as I’d never heard if it before, and would also love a similar system.

Maybe a self-hosted document management system that can parse key info from credit card statement PDFs, such as the balance and due date? I somehow doubt that automated retrieval of statements is something that any commercial company, or open source project, can implement reliably. To this end, I’m not sure what’s worse; the financial industry, or the medical records industry. Both are stuck in the past and highly conservative.

I think you got the right idea: certs are 70-90% marketing, and if you’re lucky, 10-30% actual knowledge and training. :)

krnl386, 9 months ago

Good point. I personally found VMware training to be a nice “cherry on top” of my existing VM/hypervisor knowledge back in the early 2000’s. Having said this, my colleagues who had zero VM experience/exposure were definitely lost… cert training is by no means exhaustive nor is it comprehensive.

Ah, I was indeed using an older PWA release! Wow, thanks for implementing that!!!

Just upload stupid shit like the course syllabus (even if it is publicly available) and it will grant you download credits in exchange for “contributing”.
