@npub1sv0…rq9x do you see obscene AI Bot traffic at the IP addresses you offer to domestic connections? Do you try to block it? I am completely flummoxed why my gitlab server hosted on a pi at home never goes goes down but my static websites have a 30% uptime (hosted elsewhere on a raspberry pi as well). Might just setup a proxy and do multiple sites at home! [I may have jinxed it now, though 🤦🏽‍♂️ ]

fair bit more… but no yearly increases, phone number to talk to humans, pro active connection alerts… and no nagging for upgrading TV package to get a discount ever year 🫣… their highest tier no longer has data cap… so I am happy, but that’s just me.

good plan… likely one of the two networks have better coverage. As Ryan says they haven’t merged the networks so they probably don’t share towers. I live at the bottom of a small gradient, so every type of network sucks here, kind of signal shadow… thankfully though, I have City and Virgin both providing fast backhaul. When the dust settles, if you have a City backhaul, get A&A for peace of mind, A&A probably will support all backhauls available.

heh! Ditto on Smarty here! Though if you are on a Voda owned sub-provider you’ll probably get better network than three owned (aka Smarty)!

did the direct debit kick in? If not, good riddance. If it did, cancel DD and file a complaint with Ofcom or something? (Sorry this is irrelevant and wrong thread. Ignore)!

wow! That’s 10x what I pay at cheap rate and 2.5x at full rate in UK!!!

I was able to finish my first 21Km trail run after all! It had two timeout checkpoints and I was able to get to them on time! Did finish dead last but hey ho, for the amount of practise I did, that’s about right! Feeling better than previous run, still all the cramped up spots are pretty sore! I’ll live! #UffingtonWhiteHorseGallop #running #TrailRunning

how does that work? It is like left hand paying right hand… or maybe when Meta starts paying it’s AI, that’s when it will be truly left hand paying right hand!

lol! It took additional 30 seconds on safari for iOS (how anyone uses Safari on iOS is crazy). The progressive jpeg images didn’t load! And finally your toot may have killed the site 🤣

someone had to do it! But I am amused it took Apple for people to sit up and listen! I took half a course on AI and it was apparent GenAI isn’t AI at all!

Nice! I am not sure if people use cdns or google analytics more casually but most cdns these days are just excuses for tracking! “One of the 1789 bazillion partners…!”

wonder if we get data used this month… I had it setup as a dial… so instead of how much left I could see how much I gobbled
