You absolutely can tell what's happening by reading the source code. They are using a listener and a delay for when ontimeupdate promise is not met, which timeouts the entire connection for 5 full seconds.

It's in the first paragraph.

In 2022, rightsholders obtained permission in Austria to block several pirate site domains and a list of IP addresses that actually belonged to Cloudflare. ISPs had no choice but to comply with the court's instructions which took out countless Cloudflare customers in Austria. According to reviews conducted by local telecoms regulator TKK, the IP address blocking violated net neutrality regulations and will no longer be allowed.

In other words, only domain blocking will be allowed, IP blocking will not be permitted, and cloudflare IPs must be unblocked again.

I don't agree with Brave's business model, and the shady stuff they did, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Remember when some people said we're nuts thinking Google will try to ban ad blockers with manifest v3? Yeah.

A boob, a butt, or some violence like combat footage or the like are all fine, but I don’t want porn on my feed like at all.

Likewise, but I want porn and none the violence. Make love, not war! 🥵

Did anyone even bother to check out the article? Cloudflare is being allowed again since the ban broke the rules of net neutrality... It's the IP blocking methods that are being outlawed.

A friendly reminder; Please don't forget to take your time and step away from Kbin whenever you need a break. Your mental health is just as important, if not most important, for the project to succeed.

I don't see the need to vilify Cloudflare. So far, they have shown nothing but respect towards net neutrality, fighting against bad internet practices (like Google), and even standing up to ISPs and governments to protect their users, whether they're pirates or not.

They have been around long enough (10+ years) to let you judge them and their services through their actions, not rumours.

That's a very bad idea.

The bad news is that the exploit doesn't require physical hardware access and can be triggered by loading JavaScript on a malicious website.

Resident Evil Village was a good example of that. People tested the two versions, and the cracked one was significantly faster on all runs. Even media reported on it.

Opensubtitles does not create the subtitles, that's done by the community, which is being monetised and sub authors get nothing out of it.

Oh, because Google Stadia was such a roaring success, I'm sure that Netflix will totally not turn that into a sinking ship either.

Usually, cracking doesn't typically result in the blocking of network features. This is why most groups suggest blocking the executable in the firewall.

Access your data for all websites

It's required to access iframes.

The average global price of Uranium per pound, in 2022, was $40.77 USD. Let's convert it to kilograms.

2.205 pounds ~= 1 KG
2.205 * 40.77 = 89.89785 (~90 USD per KG)

In 2022, Niger supplied 20% of France's uranium.

Please note that I'm not taking sides; I was simply curious about the actual numbers, so I'm sharing them here in the hope that someone finds them interesting.

Petition to rename X to Y, I think it sums up Elon's entire existence quite nicely.

C++ rebranding as €++ 🤑

There's zero chance anything good would come out of this meeting anyway, and they wouldn't be able to talk about it due to NDAs, so why bother?

Meta chose to make it a closed meeting, not the dev.

Try Godot. It's not exactly the same, but similar enough to let you switch relatively quickly.

I feel like this is way overblown. If you tamper with browser headers and user agents, you will be blocked.

If you use incognito mode or TOR, you won't be blocked, and in fact, cloudflare offers onion routes for your website so the traffic is fully secured.

If it weren't for cloudflare, I would have to pay three times the server costs and put twice as much time into managing it.

There are literal adverts on TV showing various sex toys for women to use; I am yet to see one catered towards their male viewership.

(Not that I would want or need to see one lol)

It shouldn't be a surprise. Games load assets on the fly to save memory, which would be terrible on a hard drive.

It's only been three days since the API change. Give it a month and we might have a bit of usable data, but for precise information, we'll need to wait a few months or even up to a year.

I wonder what Xorg Foundation thinks of him using their logo.

The fact is, vanilla Bethesda games are as dry as they come. At least when it comes to any form of adult content, even implied. Baldur's Gate 3, on the other hand, is down bad through, and through.

What you're thinking of as AI is actually a narrower version, while true intelligence is termed AGI.

Explanation:
The term 'AI' (Artificial Intelligence) refers to computer systems that can perform tasks that would typically require human intelligence, like recognizing patterns or making decisions. However, most AI systems are specialized and focused on specific tasks.

On the other hand, 'AGI' (Artificial General Intelligence) refers to a higher level of AI that possesses human-like cognitive abilities. AGI systems would be capable of understanding, learning, and applying knowledge across a wide range of tasks, much like us.

So, the distinction lies in the breadth of capabilities: AI refers to more specialized, task-focused systems, while AGI represents a more versatile and human-like intelligence.

Firefox has jxl support in testing on beta builds. You need to flip the jxl flag in about:config.

They're trying to monetize the free-to-play mobile market, which is much more lucrative than a percentage of the sales. Cunning bastards.

Centralization is an issue, but it's not Cloudflare to blame, it's the ISPs and governing bodies. Consider this: who's the one who initiated the initial block in the first place?

You can replace ClearURLs with a filter list for uBlock Origin. Less CPU resources used.

That’s a normal part of my daily news consumption while someone in a dog costume getting railed in an elevator at a convention is uh… well it is what it is, and I don’t want it.

Oh, that's just terrible! Share the location of that post, will you? I wouldn't want to stumble upon it by accident!

No, they named him after the current president of Nintendo of America -- Doug Bowser.

This entire situation can be summed up as Bowser suing Bowser Jr. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I trust this was written by hand, because ChatGPT wouldn't make grammar errors.

Unless someone mindlessly copied the parts of the article and stitched them together...

Invading a sovereign nation, killing innocents, bombing schools, hospitals, residential areas, forcefully relocating people, land grabbing, spreading dehumanizing propaganda, threatening to use nukes...

It is exactly the same thing what both Hamas and Israel have been doing.

I reckon a nifty idea instead of preinstalling software is to have a file extension finder that suggests software based on the file extension. Sure, there are some file types that have multiple uses, but many proprietary solutions use distinct extensions, making it quite straightforward to organize the recommendations.
