That's the spirit! :) FYI the MuWire policy on ads is described in detail here https://muwire.com/ads.txt

I block ads.
Ramble won't have ads. It's not really setup to serve them anyhow.

Hey Rambler, what is your position on ads in general? Are we going to see ads on this site some day?

I meant the direct link, not just the logo of Surfshark itself.

It's in the image, but good point.

I thought Poland hated online advertising the most, but no, they're a fucking average compared to France. Oh well.

All this graph tells me is that that the French are too stupid to install it successfully in one go.

10 years ago or more a mac engineer ported MAME to a kodak digital camera and the games were playable. (pacman, etc)

Probably, but maybe it will just limit it to a few minutes per web site.
Also too many new "free web games" that mine Monero while you play the free game. Monero sent to the Russian hackers of course, not to the app game players.

Apple probably will avoid making Safari on iPhone have access to a very powerful webgpu though, else people start delivering great apps via browser rather than app store.

If it was a Nikon he could have gotten GTAV to play on it. /s
That's pretty neat though!

Reply to comment by whitestar in Far-Right Platform Gab Has Been Hacked—Including Private Data by Rambler
Well, there's [RAMBLE], which, as far as I know, doesn't ban you for using these words, but also 8chan.moe (.se clear net mirror, .cc clear net mirror, Tor v3 mirror, Tor2web mirror - warning: clear net mirrors use Clownflare, which is a privacy issue (clear net only)), Nanochan (Tor v3 only), anon.cafe (.org clear net mirror, .co clear net mirror, Tor v3 mirror), zzzchan (Tor v3 mirror - warning: clear net mirror uses Clownflare), and maybe some others.
Note that some boards might add rules preventing you from using "racist" words, but I checked 8chan.moe/v/, Nanochan/g/, anon.cafe/comfy/, zzzchan/x/, and it looks like there are no additional rules that ban those types of words.

And what othe platform is there where you can say "nigger" and not get banned?

I love how people always flock to centralized platforms, even though sooner or later it always ends the same.
And when you try to get them to use Matrix/XMPP/literally anything with federation, they back out for no sane reason.

Same. No email. They have an obligation to report breaches.

That link there gives a LOT of context! Gab is free in the sense of allowing people to post things but not private in the sense of having their acts together technically.

... I thought we had laws over US companies on being pawned like this.
They are supposed to notify people.
Hate to tell my liberal idealistic friends conducting such hate campaigns, but this ceaseless pursuit of politically in opposite to you doesn't end well. Two party system is an illusion. Theater. Two wings of the same lying bird.
You just are going to cause utter dis-abandonment of sites, web, etc. All of them.
I couldn't care any less because I view liberal pursuits as what already wrecked the technology almost 20 years ago. Not a silly-con valley firm at mass scale who isn't wonky liberal. Go abroad it they are headed up by control freaks with clearer stripes.
Only going to defund yourselves and send everyone into hidden and much more fortified private spaces. Your endless data collection and intelligence will die swiftly.

If this won't make Gab users leave this platform, I don't know what will. I mean, they have already gave their data to Goolag reCRAPTCHA, and of course, the developers won't bother with fixes (clear net only). It looks like Goolag reCRAPTCHA isn't there, but I might be wrong. Gab is also Clownflared, which is a privacy issue (clear net only), so even if the privacy policy (clear net only) said anything about storing user data, Clownflare will store it anyway.
Rambler OP wrote
So, I never received an email from Gab nor does their website disclose a hack.
If private data was comprised, then fuck Gab for failing to notify users of this breech.
Also, the title is just copied from the article. Anytime i've logged in its just Bible quotes and Trump clips. If thats "far right" then, well, I don't know.

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll keep using my phone for those threads for now.

Reply to comment by dontvisitmyintentions in Exclusive: Here's Where Americans Are Using Starlink's Satellite Internet Service by Rambler
Demos and trials in youtube videos of latency, speed, and cost for north america almost made me want to try starlink too!!!! I have have multiple hardwired and cell paths already!
Did you see how fast starlink is? watch the linus tech tip demo or other demos.
https://linustechtips.com/topic/1304101-gaming-on-starlink/
HOLY COW!!
If you are in a mountain valley, the ONLY radio you can use to get on internet is UPWARD not low angle, and a that latitude washington state needs starlink in valleys
in kentucky and tennesee , I predict they will also pick up a shitload of users by word of mouth. hard to even get fast cell packets
my only complaint about some of these satellite systems is the ACK before a packet arrives in some designs being sent for a packet that never technically arrived, but optical long haul networks between nations do that too.. allowing for photons to be in transit across an ocean up to 15 fake ACKS ahead.
I say its retarded because an ACK should be an ACK not a expectation based on traffic flow.
But in the year 2000 it was noted :
10,000 miles away with 80 msec latency and 160 msec roundtrip time. At 1Gb speed, there are 8MB of data on route to a destination in 80 msec before the destination even has a chance to send its very first ACK back
8 megabytes of photons trapped in the cable, even if zero hops. This is the same problem with satellites... but in this starlink its 130 megabytes in transit before the first ACK... so the greasy fuckers hack all the TCPIP streaming window protocols to pre-ACK. and ACK packets that have not really ever arrived!!!!!!!!!!!
in most protocols its up to 15 packets, but I bet this starlink has more generous hacks. It also means that ping tests need to be cryptographic computational twoway handshakes then divided by two , to get real latency.
The video link I gave shows overhead satellites giving 27 millisecond latency for gamers... I assume its legit. but
HOLY COW!
Of course, it need not be said, that SLIDING WINDOWS allow for zero ( 0 , none nada zilch) fake ACKS in any network, and back off when a router buffer overflows enroute
https://www.omnisecu.com/tcpip/tcp-sliding-window.php
i just think that its amusing that so many deviant hacks to subvert TCPIP windows exists.
