It’s easy to hit 5gb when backing up photos and videos, or message threads that contain photos/video. The space is also shared with the non-backed up data.

Many services depends on iCloud to work. Message sync and sharing Notes for instance. If your backups are taking up all your storage these things stop working right. It’s dumb.

Rdr2 fishing has a following…

The Los Angeles/ California earthquake alert system worked just fine today.

Yeah this is a bad idea. Like all other appliances, it’s easier to simply subsidize energy improvement projects such as running electrical to the kitchen and panel upgrades.

French Canadians have a stereotype of being pretentious and I love it. Keep being odd Quebec.

One of the desert communities.

Hi, it’s me with my rural community that doesn’t have service at all.

Rural Iowa has phone lines and can easily put up p2p wireless as long as it’s above the tree line . It’s also easy to trench cable through most of the state . I used to live there.

Many places in the US are much more difficult.

Verizon offered me 3mbps/1mbps dsl for $60/mo 4 years ago and it was their best and only option. I had their LTE service and it was flakey due to mountain interference and distance from tower. Two p2p wireless services exist but 1 had 20% packet loss across all of their customers and after 2 years still refused to fix it and the other was offering single-digit speeds for $100+ per month.

Verizon put up a sign 3 years ago that said “high speed internet coming soon!” The sign has since deteriorated and blew away. It’s symbolic.

The fcc needs to support LEO so that areas like mine are serviced. Starlink doesn’t compete with any other terrestrial service. It’s for the people that don’t have another option, and there are a lot.

I love shitting on Elon but starlink is one of the most important things that has come out of the US. It made remote work possible for thousands. It provided real internet access for so many rural areas. The FCC needs to fix this.

They only have that option if you run the cpu outside of design spec. Rambunctious o/c’ers no longer get a free replacement at AMD’s expense, and helps amd figure out if there’s a problem with cpus if they are failing and are not o/c’d.

Can you name one peer that manages Citrix hypervisor?

I tasked my VAR to find out what our pricing is going to look like in 2024 when our support agreement is up. They said VMware is a mess right now, do t expect a response soon. I need time to migrate and decide if I’m sticking with on-prem or moving god damn workloads to some cloud. This is a fucking shitshow. I fucking hate shareholders.

So many companies can’t do this.

Just do a search for your local utility and “lawsuit”

Disagree. Utilities are also a shitshow and have defrauded the consumer.

I’d prefer that a baseline level of internet service be defined (100mbps symmetrical max, 100ms latency or lower ) and allow local governments and communities to provide that level of service to their constituents. If a company wants to compete above those baselines, let them.

I’d also let the baselines be re-negotiated annually.

Sounds just like the idea that governments can retrieve metadata from phone calls without much hassle.

I’m not sure there is much you could do to get around this on iOS besides disabling push notifications in your app.

You’d also like the 3rd largest city in California, California City. Both are portraits of a generation that could afford to dream big and avoid financial ruin.

They handle it better and your options to respond are better.

You can immediately invalidate all associations for instance. You can revalidate them too once your identity provider is back up and running. Okta is going through this right now I believe, but I haven’t been paying a whole lot of attention to it.

There’s no password with federated sites. It’s certificates to prove the connection is valid, and tokens.

The federated website could chose to save nothing about you. It would make it a lot easier for them to do so, as it means less resources to manage, and less PII to be concerned about storing.

One you have a business relationship with. You can sign up for a paid account with google or Microsoft. Use your own domain. Disable what ever adware options you’d like, and use that as your identity provider.

While you can roll your own, many services if they even support custom saml federation only do so for enterprise customers. You’re much more likely to find useful federated services with google or MS.

I would never recommend Facebook.
