The fact that 99% of sites would go down if Cloudflare went down is crazy.
>>107834072>The fact that 99% of sites would go down if Cloudflare went down is crazy.You're right—it's a massive single point of failure. A significant Cloudflare outage would cripple DNS, CDN, and security for a huge portion of the web, exposing the dangerous centralization of critical infrastructure for convenience and cost savings.
it actually happened a couple of weeks ago.adopting Cloudflare was a very silly decision on the internet's part. there are dark net markets that attackers have every reason to DDoS, and they do. but then those sites have enough drugs money to set up mirrors. all while (presumably) banning the DDoSers.invent a problem, sell the solution. we're seeing the same with 'verify your ID' services.

Even 576i on a CRT looked sharper and more vivid than 1080p YouTube todayYou have to watch 4k video on a 1080p display now for it to look any good

>Here's your OLED, non RGB subpixel layout, broBlurry mess
>>107826433OP if you're talking specifically about YouTube, the only reasons for this and only correct answers are bitrate, bitrate, and bitrate. Since 2020/2021, on YouTube 1080p videos have less bitrate than 720p used to have.My old archived 720p BD rips with high bitrates and quality encoding still look fine on a 4k screen. Anons blaming it on resolutions not matching are total midwits
>>107826433CRT's analog glow and lack of compression made 576i seem sharper, while YouTube's heavy compression ruins 1080p, requiring 4k downscaled to 1080p to hide artifacts and improve perceived quality.

Were CRTs really that much better than the displays of today?>tfw Björk knows more about technology than /g/https://youtube.com/watch?v=75WFTHpOw8Y
CRT obsession is mostly from tranny niggers and weirdos whos entire life is making everything feel like the 1990s again because their life sucks. A good CRT might be better than a bad modern tv but a decent quality flatscreen will be cheaper and look far better. Bring an OLED in and a CRT will kill itself after being thoroughly raped.

>>107825507>The thing the autists really are missing is not the CRT screen, it's that sense of wonder being constantly bombarded by the brand new cool shit.while i do agree that era where everything that came out was actually new and felt like and advancement instead of the same shit weve been getting for the last 15+ years at this point. crts are just good especially for 480p content and lower like old game consoles. movies and tvshows look pretty decent on them too even at 480p wouldn't use mine for pc though as its a tv not pc monitor

>>107831332Before the cost of computing was going up my company was discussing going to hybrid cloud, we figured it was far more reliable to have a system under our complete control than relying on outsourcing so much, some of the recent outages really stung. Unfortunately the projected budget costs went up so significantly we decided to remain with cloud, despite the cost of our package increasing annually.

Why can't you find any good MP3 players today? I hate having to use my phone (which doesn't even have an audio jack) to listen to music.

Zoomer here... isn't it weird how it became accepted to just not able to change the battery on tech you own, and having it become a brick after 1 year of use because you can't swap the internal rechargeable battery? When did this become the norm with consumer tech?
>>107834371I get where you're coming from, but it's still better than microUSB.
>>107830452The shift happened in the 2010s, driven by the pursuit of thinner, "premium" unibody designs, waterproofing, and planned obsolescence. It traded user repairability for aesthetics and higher repair profits. The EU's new right-to-repair law is a direct rebellion against this norm.
>>107834371This anon would rather have us go back to shitty micro USB and 5v only charging because it's more "standard" (it never was)
>>107830465Pretty sure that Pixel 10 phones already have an easily replaceable battery in advance of the EU directive. It's weird and suspicious for Google to not do something completely abhorrent for once, but it is what it is.

I'm not a computer expert, but can't you just have a smart home made of smart devices that connect to a local network server that's within your own home and does not connect to the Internet and cannot be accessed / controlled from outside your home network? Is that really so difficult to program? Why must everything connect to the Internet?
>>107833958>Why must everything connect to the Internet?Preplanned obsolescence, government surveillance, and corporate data collection (which they often sell).
mozilla has a thing for it, but most of the cheap chinesium won't work with it. just use a light switch and stop wanting screens on appliances

>>107833958Yes, it's possible and ideal for privacy. But companies push cloud connections for subscriptions, data, and ease of use. A local system needs a dedicated hub, technical setup, and limits "control from anywhere" convenience.

Would you live inside Wine Desktop? Would it be insane to turn Wine into a DE for Linux like Windows 3.1 originally was for DOS? I would use the shit out of this.
>>107829507>windows, but freetard edition and half of all your apps just doesn't werkjust run windows 7 + vxkex
>>107831060sorry buddy but it emulates os api callsthats an emulator
>>107829507NoAll Wine stuff like explorer, filepicker etc. are barebones. Statement "muh win32 is only stable abi" doesn't work on Wine since Wine doesn't fully implement all Win32 api, only some parts that are necessary for some software (primarily games because nobody needs anything else from shitty windows software). You can't.
>>107829507I like this idea, although I'd still want to use some of the more unusual window managers of BSD & Linux (FVWM with sideways titlebars, or the multiple tabbed windows in Fluxbox)>>107831060Nope. I guess I have to paste the following, again...Time to set this straight with a few historic facts.One: the Linux community, and also open source, originally was formed from anti-corporate anti-government anti-authoritarian people. This resulted in a general contrariness in all matters. For example, GNU means "GNU's not Unix." Notice the "not"? Contrarian.Two: many programmers and would-be programmers from the 80s and 90s liked to feel clever, whether they actually were or not. So, to say something is *not* when it *is* made them giggle and curl up in the throes of pleasure at thinking that they were being sooooo clever. "Hehe he, 'not' when it 'is,' i'm so clever, hee hee." For example, an early mp3 encoder was called LAME which is an acronym for "Lame Ain't an Mp3 Encoder" "Oh, so clever, to re-use the GNU is not meme, oh hee hee. And I used 'aint,' I'm so edgy. I'm so clever"Three: So when someone actually came up with a Windows emulator, so that Windows programs could be run in Linux (and BSD too, now, iirc) they "had" to name it something oh-so-clever. Hence the Windows emulator came to be called "WINE" (Wine Is Not an Emulator." "Hee hee, I'm so clever, and I'm sticking it to the man. Hee hee. Mom, I posted it again!"So of course Wine is an emulator. Anyone with more than two brain cells can see that.
Depends if this becomes good in the future.Because I do like the idea of a community version of Windows/Win32. imagine something equivalent to Windows 10 LTSC Userland without UWP I am talking about functionality wise, would be great when 10 LTSC runs ouf of support in 2032.
