Interestingly last week a UK network provider had a day - 2 day outage across the entire UK by the sounds of it.

I see no difference between most big tech companies and Reddit in terms of selling user data. Reddit is just being more forthcoming with it instead of allowing users to figure it out eventually.

Boost hasn't stopped working. I'm still using it and I've used it everyday.

I have Boost for Lemmy and Reddit. Their icons are identical.

I didn't take any notice of which instances they were from. The people I'm thinking of didn't talk about politics - they were shouty about other things.

Lemmy should have shined when the API kicked in, but we had a number of users being shouty ass hats that probably helped to drive users away. Fortunately they seem to have quieten down since for one reason or another, but Lemmy adoption doesn't seem to have increased again yet - maybe one day.

I wonder when the invites will be sent out. I'm curious how much a share will cost and I'm curious about who these 75k loyal users could be. Will it be the same group that got the free NFTs, as they were only given to the top contributors weren't they?

Do you use your email addresses on websites? I find it hard to believe you don't see this when you look at it in the security page of Outlook if you use your email address for more than just emailing friends and family.

This is normal. All of my accounts have looked like this for years. So I imagine every account with Microsoft will see this bombardment of someone trying to get in.

It's not just Microsoft - every server on the internet with an open port gets bombarded all of the time. It's just the way of the internet. So if you move your account to another platform it'll see the same bombardment as it does now.

What's considered as a release in the nginx world?

Any minor update or just the major updates?

Eg. 1.25.4 was recently released. 4 months prior was 1.25.3. 2 months prior to that it was 1.25.2. etc

Do you have sources?

My country is probably different to yours. But I just visited their store. You can order them online from their stores too.

PAYG is a little confusing these days because every network provider is advertising it as if it's a pre-paid monthly plan. Ie. Top up $10 every month to get x bundle. But they're just the same as back in the day; they just massively emphasize the deals you can get when you top up every month because they want as much money as possible.

If you read their terms and conditions, they state that the regular price for a text, a call, a MB of data is y when you haven't qualified for a bundle. Don't get me wrong, the out of bundle prices are shockingly expensive but if like me, you want it to mainly receive and very rarely send it's not that bad at all.

I use my PAYG SIM as a secondary SIM. It would be too expensive to use as my main SIM. For the same allowance, the best PAYG bundle I could find was twice the price as my regular monthly contract.

I see no difference between creating a fake video/image with AI and Adobe's packages. So to me this isn't an AI problem, it's a problem that should have been resolved a couple of decades ago.
