So your threat model assumes an actor with a quantum computer capable of breaking RSA, but not a regular computer capable of filtering by IP address?

p1mrx ,

A VPN encrypts traffic between your device and the VPN server, and any packet on that path includes your IP address. So anyone attempting to decrypt your VPN traffic can trivially distinguish your packets from other users of the VPN server.

Worth noting: "Visible includes mobile hotspot with unlimited data at speeds up to 5Mbps."

.us is sketchy AF. They should use something.gov.

.gov is allowed for use by any governments that invented the internet.

Reddit: 'We Are in the Early Stages of Monetizing Our User Base' (www.404media.co)

Reddit said in a filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission that its users’ posts are “a valuable source of conversation data and knowledge” that has been and will continue to be an important mechanism for training AI and large language models. The filing also states that the company believes “we are in the early...

The difference is, Elon Musk sometimes thinks that it would be pretty neat if his private jets were electric. When has Taylor Swift ever done that??

GNU style is logical, because braces are syntactically a single statement:

while (x == y)
  func1();  // can be replaced by { ... }

However, I prefer to entirely avoid unbraced single statements after while/if:

while (x == y) {
  func1();  // easy to add func2(); later
}

Although this is ok when it fits:

while (x == y) func1();  // brevity!

sell off 5 of them for twice what they were worth

Technically she was selling for twice the retail price. An item is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

Drop the SPEED OF, just LIGHT. It's cleaner.

I would say, anything whose spacetime geodesic (orbital/freefall path) intersects the spheroid defined by the surface of the Earth. Though by this definition, a comet on a 100-year collision course is already "on Earth", so I'm not sure if that's reasonable.

Bury yourself in hotdogs until they crush the emptiness.

fd00::x is shorter than 192.168.x.x

Technically you're supposed to use fdxx:xxxx:xxxx::x, but on your home network nobody cares.

Did you mean caveat emptor (buyer beware), or do you refer to Amazon as caveat emporium (the beware market)?

Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze

why did they pick the same adjective twice??

1 wish = 1 subatomic particle.

You can statically number a LAN with fd00::/8 and NAT66 to the internet, if you really want to.

A device on your private IPv4 network can send packets directly to 104.21.36.127 via NAT. How will it send packets to 2606:4700:3033::6815:247f? There's not enough space in the IPv4 header.

p1mrx ,

Roughly speaking, fd00::123 is the IPv6 equivalent of 192.168.0.123

Schrödinger's cat only "works" if the inside of the box is physically isolated from the environment. Maybe a faraday cage in freefall surrounded by vacuum. That's probably insufficient, but if you can still hear the meow then it's woefully insufficient.

At Fukushima, Zirconium-DHMO reactions produced an explosive gas that blew up 3 buildings!
