- Comment on Do you stay on vpn 24/7 or turn it on whenever you need it? 5 days ago:
I default to on, and turn it off if I need something that is blocking me and there’s no workaround.
Although the traffic itself is protected, I find the signal of «I am doing something “secret” right now» to be best avoided both for passive metadata collection as well as active correlation attacks reasons; as well as to avoid leaks by clicking some link or just loading an image from some server that might be more “revealing” than I’d like. I’m not talking about anything super spicy, for example just by being a Lemmy user the image hosts you see more can depend on the comms/instances you use the most often - a pretty small segment.
- Comment on What is the deal with IPv6? 6 days ago:
On the LAN side sure, but I don’t think many people would make a public website/webapp “true single stack”. If there’s a network appliance “terminating” the IPv6 connection and “NATting” it over IPv4 that’s a terrible hack that is even worse than not having it at all imho
Unless you’re talking about the link-local

Sorry your feelings were hurt but the discussion is about AI datacenters with supposedly hundreds of thousands of Nvidia cards and very supposedly an electrical capacity of up to 9GW, no one cares about regular datacenters

Then it is most likely on the second layer via the Fn key, I’ve seen a couple use Fn-P but check your manual OP

Up to you, but personally I’m a European that uses the US layout most of the time as it’s especially nice in a terminal, and have a quick switch hotkey (win-space) to switch over when I need accented characters

Isn’t it
shift-?? - Comment on How do I type an apostrophe and use print screen on a European Spanish keyboard? 2 weeks ago:
You can just set the layout to US (or whatever you’re accustomed to) and go by memory. 3 keys are different between ISO and ANSI, most characters are where your fingers expect them to be

What makes an expert is the ability to say “this is unequivocally safe to eat, because I can positively identify it based on this and this feature”, as well as “it is not possible/I am not able to confidently identify this mushroom as safe”

- Comment on What actually is the 10-point proposal from Iran which Trump said is "workable basis on which to negotiate"? 1 month ago:
This is definitely not something the US would write, I’m actually sort of surprised they agreed. I guess someone just managed to frame it as “winning” to Trump and complimented his acuteness
