Well the admin of a site could opt out of using cloudflare for the time being, a user could do literally nothing. Errors in Cloudflare can easily take down their servers and therefore the CDN and access to like 20% of websites. And Bugs in Cloudflare can even leak user data.

So cloudflare can grant DDOS Protection, CDNs and other exploiting protection, but can take down large parts of everything, temporarily or permanently.

Considering all ghosts have different algorithms, and Clyde is probably the most advanced, switching between hunting and fleeing, it would be true, as probably nothing was so advanced in 1980.
Honorable mention to HL 1 for having more advanced cockroach algorithms in 1998 than some human algorithms in 2023.

I've 14 items in Authy, and basically never used SMS as 2FA. Only to validate my identity on first signup. The only time SMS was used as 2FA for me was by the company I had an internship in programming in.

you can very easily disable Stories on Signal

Which is yet another point for Signal overall :)

Signal has Stories too, tbh. All apps are beginning to integrate them. Still, they suck.
The worst thing about Telegram was and still is that End to End encryption is a special add on feature and not the default. Group chats aren't secure either. The only reason why Telegram is used as more secure for illegal activities is that it does not cooperate with law enforcement well and has its HQ in Dubai. That does not prevent any hacks or leaks tho.

Fun fact: Your body will also survive 5069. This is due to the law of preservation of energy, which means no energy and particles can vanish, they can only change, but they're still there.

Google is not at fault here, not at all. If at all, Google is just responsible for a not fully up to date product, which could enrage consumers at worst. If that guy literally couldn't see the road he also was unable to stop for an animal or even human.
It's not Google's responsibility to drive responsible for their users; drivers need to do so safely with or without help from maps of any kind.
If the false information had caused an emergency vehicle to be misguided which led to the death of the patient I would agree that Google is at some fault.

Other than that, the companies responsible for caring about the bridge should be at fault here somewhat too, even though it's not their responsibility to - again - ensure a driver can stop in time at their current speed and the given weather conditions. Yet they should mark a road as dead end and block the road as done at eg. natural cliffs where roads are ending, with proper material, so blocks of concrete stopping even tanks.

Then our experiences differ, though I must agree some instances (which you can switch in the settings - maybe there's one closer to you or less stressed), including the official ones, have a meager uptime (compared to YouTube, ofc). Sometimes they're offline for a few minutes and very rarely they're broken for longer due to YouTube changing something.

Simple, just visit shoebuntu.com

I spend hours aligning their bottoms and virtual position so now my three screens transfer the mouse exactly in their vertical middle.

I also use a tiling WM with tons of workspaces and if I switch workspaces my mouse gets reseted into the middle of the workspace anyway.

Not really, almost everyone has WiFi. However, many only have DSL - with speeds up to 10 Mbps or even lower. And that still for a price that's way too high. Usually it happens at more remote places, like 10 km away from the nearest city. Only one ISP is available, nobody cares about upgrading the rotting copper cables, or even laying fiber, so the customer just gets what's available for the price the ISP wants, there are basically no restrictions. We're very lucky to have Gigabit for 50€/month and soon fiber - and that's not even certain. A company is laying fiber, they're basically called 'German Fiber Optic'. As they only offer static public IPv4s for a premium price however, we didn't go for it. Rule of thumb is that either other ISPs will do their own cables just as the first one has been finished, so as not to lose customers. As ISP 1 that originally laid fiber could charge any amount for that only cable though, ISP 2 will either bite their cheeks and rent it or actually lay it themselves. From that point on the cable will be cheaper for ISP n>=3, as ISP 1+2 want to get them as a customer. So we just need to wait. Not an option for, as said, remote points, who may not have any acceptable connection but a tower right in their backyard.
