slenk··on Netflix to Acquire Warner Bros
Yeah but there is 0 chance that the cost would remain similar to what it is now
slenk··on FAA to restrict commercial rocket launches to overnight hours
Officially no reason to ever visit Florida now
slenk··on Warp Terminal changes pricing model
Just started using this - it's pretty nice. Very customizable but it makes my oh-my-zsh setup look like crap with it's fonts.

I started using it since it's cross platform and I use chezmoi, but the config quickly gets complicated if you want things like folders in your tab titles, etc

slenk··on Warp Terminal changes pricing model
So my annual plan that renews in February - I am just going to whatever value is left if I want to switch to the build plan to bring my own key. Well shoot

Well they make it look easy I always end up cutting myself

I also have a few tools from CI so I don't know what that makes me
slenk··on 10M people watched a YouTuber shim a lock; the lock company sued him – bad idea
No one is doing that in a nice residential neighborhood

Oh sweet never knew there was a connection between LPL and McNally - I just notice they always cut their shims from cans the same way
slenk··on Google flags Immich sites as dangerous
They want to make money off your transactions again I guess. Must get more from Ebay
slenk··on Google flags Immich sites as dangerous
Ok - but maybe tell me that? They won't officially tell me anything or let me talk to a person. Form email every time.

At the time I didn't have a better way to test that my form worked.

slenk··on Google flags Immich sites as dangerous
Yup. Both bad companies IMO

Same thing with Paypal - I opened a business account, was able to do one transaction and was shut down for fraud. I tested a donation to myself. Under $10. Lifetime ban.

fuck paypal

slenk··on Kenvue stock drops on report RFK Jr will link autism to Tylenol during pregnancy
Tylenol isn't addictive. Every opiate is. Even as an alcoholic having to get surgery terrifies me because of how addictive opiates is and that is all doctors push now-a-days.

eta this is nothing to do with purity of the product. I never heard of someone selling themselves for Tylenol/acetaminophen

slenk··on California AG to OpenAI: Harm to Children Will Not Be Tolerated
Yeah but AI will get them re-elected /s
slenk··on AccuWeather to discontinue free access to Core Weather API
I noticed that before when looking at some weather APIs. You have a lot better data in Europe available
slenk··on AccuWeather to discontinue free access to Core Weather API
I use that in HomeAssistant. Love it!
slenk··on Bypassing Google's big anti-adblock update
You appear to be right and I feel like I am going crazy now. I could have sworn I just did it. Might be either ViolentMonkey or ReactDevTools but I need to restart maybe
slenk··on Bypassing Google's big anti-adblock update
Brave = Chrome
slenk··on Bypassing Google's big anti-adblock update
Firefox on Windows has PWA support at least
slenk··on Bypassing Google's big anti-adblock update
Most sites let you ignore that, but just keep like Ungoogled Chromium around as a backup
slenk··on Get the location of the ISS using DNS
mailinabox.email. Just use the DNS part and not worry about mx if you want something fairly simple
slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
AI protection isn't a selling point for me. What I have said is I use them for DNS records, primarily for mx and txt records
slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
I thought Cloudflare overall was neutral - meaning as many haters as lovers. I know the CEO frequents here as well.

When I ask how is Cloudflare a "parasite" I was being genuine. I know it was a problem for some users, but I don't think I realized how prevalent it was

slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
fwiw, I have been convinced to look at other options
slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
Dude, stop putting words in my mouth. I never said they weren't bad.

Some nicer people here tried the educative approach and it worked much better. I learned about Bunny. And I keep forgetting I have a few in deSec but that has a limit.

I do not understand the hostility

slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
Where did I say all.

Most of the time I don't use them for their network, usually just DNS records for mail because their interface is nicer than namecheap and gives me basic stats.

To my understanding, they aren't blocking MX records behind captchas

slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
I already said in another post I am looking at Bunny, but they also don't seem to want to take my money. I've tried 3 cards. I am willing to pay for a good service, but I will be honest, I don't know many of cloudflare's competitors
slenk··on Cloudflare Introduces Default Blocking of A.I. Data Scrapers
Multiple people have brought that up. I pay for everything else, why not one more.

Although bunny.net won't take ANY of my credit or debit cards
