At that point you might be better off just using Nginx without the gui. SWAG is a nice reverse proxy focused implementation of it.
There is a minority who didn’t directly contribute to it, yes.
I mean the conservatives definitely asked for this, as did the democrats who didn’t vote, and the majority of Americans who don’t vote at all.
He’s a bot
Somebody fucked something up, exactly how specific do you want them to be?
That vast, vast majority of spam callers are operating out of illegal call centers in India, they’re spoofing phone numbers, and they could not care less that you’re on a do not call list.
For automating maintenance and updates? How exactly does it not?
You’re totally right, not turning it on at all would be safer. But we do need to use them so it makes sense to turn it on while in use. Security is only good up to the point of it making your machine unusable. Most of the attacks you see on running computers by happens overnight anyway, or otherwise when your machine is sitting idle not in use. Plus it gives you the opportunity to witness odd behavior if it were to happen while you’re using it.
And no, you should never trust your LAN in the year of our lord 2025. We are well beyond that in the cybersecurity landscape and have been for 10+ years. Zero Trust is the name of the game. If a device is on, and connected to the internet, it’s a target, as are any other devices on that network. Pretend that is not the case at
Any program on your PC that maintains or frequently initiates outbound connections, other machines on your LAN spreading an infection, literally any Trojan, etc. Double that if you haven’t disabled UPnP on your ISP router which is probably on by default.
Is your gaming PC air gapped from the internet??
All official game reviews are early access reviews. Whether you buy the game on day 1 or you pre order, you’re seeing the same reviews. There are also community reviews of the game, if game journalists are you issue, but more and more these days community reviews are putting out reviews early, including gameplay. It’s very rare to “go in blind” when preordering, when there is so much information prior to release. I certainly didn’t buy Cyberpunk at launch, and I didn’t need to wait two weeks to know that.
And also it doesn’t take 2 weeks for community sentiment to form lol that’s a ludicrous thing to say. You will have full access to community sentiment on day 1. And with a full week to refund, you get an extra 6 of those days to get one. Your argument would be more at home 10-15 years ago, but certainly not today.
There is in fact no practical reason not to pre order.
Yes objectively lol. There’s a reason why the player counts of BFV (and BF1) dwarf those of BF4 and BF2042 today.
Yeah people avoid pre ordering because they don’t want to signal to the publishers support for a game before they know it’ll be good. And that’s a perfectly valid reason not to pre order. But it’s also the only reason not to pre order, and it’s more political than practical.
BFV was a great game marred by awful executive meddling causing issues several times throughout its run but support was dropped for it because it was at the end of its life cycle (The same as the battlefield preceding it). But it was and is to this day actually one of the most popular games in the series, along with BF1. It (and BF1) dwarf the players of both BF4 and BF2042
BFV is objectively the best BF game mechanically and content-wise and it’s not close. Unfortunately the awful reputation it rightly earned throughout most of its lifespan will forever rob it of its throne.
They are all objectively practical, every single one. They are upsides without a downside. That being said, it’s ultimately your choice whether you choose practicality over the morals of the thing. If you want to choose not to preorder something just to send a message, I get it.
There are lots of practical reasons TO preorder something, thought it’s not always all of those things. And you can both preorder something and “Wait for reviews” because the vast majority of the time, reviews release before a game releases.
For example, Civ 7 comes out on the 11th, if you pre order you get the benefit of getting to play it on the 6th, and the reviews for it all released today, the 3rd. That means I’ll know today if the game sucks and I can just… cancel my preorder if I wanted to. Then in a couple days I get to play the game early, so in case the reviews were all paid for I get to see for myself if I don’t like the game, and if I don’t like it, I can cancel my pre order.
In case I don’t cancel my pre order, I also save $10 on Civ packs I would otherwise be paying for. If I waited for release day to buy it, I’d lose out on the benefits of pre ordering, but gain nothing.
The same amount of laptops will come over, we’ll just be paying more for them. The production of laptops from scratch in the U.S. will very likely never happen. The best case scenario where we do become an electronics manufacturing powerhouse would take literally decades.
