My response is simply trying to understand where you are coming from. You've mentioned there are numerous superior options and you would never recommend it.

I'm wondering (genuinely!) if you are speaking as an enterprise customer or a free plan, or what.... both for the sake of meaningful discussion and potentially learning about even better options for my own work.

As to the article - I fully believe the responsibility lies with site owners to pick and choose how they want to serve their sites. Nobody is forcing them to use Cloudflare on a free plan, or to ignore any analytics it provides and make sure it is serving their customers correctly. Cloudflare is one piece of a delivery solution, and only works as well as you configure it. If your decision for your app is "I'll just use the free plan, and let Cloudflare decide everything for me" then you get what you pay for.

If Cloudflare is getting in their way, they can go somewhere else.

I'm curious if you've had experience with their enterprise package?

I can understand people's gripes about things on the free/cheap packages, where Cloudflare makes decisions for you, sometimes ones you don't like.

But as an enterprise customer, I've never found it to be anything short of fantastic - I can tailor it to behave exactly how I want, and not interfere with my customers.

If they distribute a copy of the source at the same time they send you the binaries (in this case, the car) - then they have no further obligation to distribute the code. They don't have to maintain an online repository, nor worry about who is entitled to what version of the code.

Under GPL, you are only entitled to the source of the binaries you are given.

I might be breaking the rules, but can you point me towards any information about how to integrate my existing self-hosted jitsi server into my self-hosted matrix install? Finding this seems elusive.

The waveform you are trying to reproduce, though, was mixed and mastered by a guy on studio monitors or similar, and in such a way that it would sound appropriate on the systems his audience is going to use.. or some version thereof. He's not pushing things to the limit of what his studio setup can produce, because that's going to sound like crap anywhere else.

What you listen on to master isn't necessarily what you'd listen on for fun.

If you were taking raw recordings of something with mics with really flat response curves, and wanted to play it back as accurately as possible, this would hold - but that's not the case. It's all about what sounds good to you.

Paste into a text buffer first, which is generally a good idea anyway to deal with formatting issues.

Healthy bone marrow completely regenerates.

What you are hearing is plain old sound - higher frequency, in the ranges we tend to lose first with time and age. In both the TV and light fixtures, you are hearing the transformer coils physically shifting.

I hear them too.

Tooth fillings and bone conduction could pick up AM signals, because of the nature of AM.

Antigua, not Aruba.

(technically the country of Antigua and Barbuda)

Because it's more straightforward.

What do you mean by "natural silk".

Where do you think "natural silk" comes from?

Well, spiders eat stuff, and poop out magic thread.

So change their diet, you change the thread...

udp is trivial to load balance.... plenty support it.

What you do here is tell your credit card company that the charges are fraudulent and that you have informed Lyft that the card is not authorized, but they refuse to do anything about it. Let them handle it - they will.

A grand jury indicting is rather different than a trial jury convicting.

Everything you observe, your entire perception of reality is mental.

The brain is at the center of all experience - I see nothing new here.

Does openstreetmaps have a proper cross-platform phone app with turn by turn instructions while you are driving that works well - and does it have a good majority of costa rican roads?

I have quite literally used "Left at the spot where there is usually a cow grazing next to a bus stop" to tell people to find my house.

I wouldn't say behind... those railroads were the product of a booming fruit industry - and those days are over; global agriculture changed. Also, now we have roads.

You can drive from the carribean to the pacific on highway in a few hours here.

Re: Rail......

All of those railroads have been shut down for ages - there are no working railroads here, other than a revived diesel commuter railroad with a few cars that goes back and forth across the central valley.

Historically, yes, costa rica was one of the first countries to adopt electric power as a nation, including for railroads and stuff... but that time is over.

That's exactly what it means - grid power. I don't know why everyone thinks it means we somehow, under the radar, stopped using gas vehicles and stoves and stuff... obviously that's not the case.

And it's not a milestone.. it's a sensationalized headline.

As much as I'm proud of my little adopted country - this doesn't represent some new investment or initiative. We had more rain than usual this year so ran on renewables longer than average this year (dropping electricity prices 10% for a while, which is fantastic).

It also meant far fewer people were inclined to own them, and they were far less accessible.

These days we still do the same thing, those of us who are inclined - but we do it with the internet, funky web services, a thousand programming languages, and so on.

And if we want to tinker... we go buy an arduino or something.

I very much like this avenue of thought, as a layperson.

I forget where I read it, fairly recently somewhere... but something along the lines of measurement == entanglement.

If he co-signed then he 100%, absolutely took on the financial obligation. If you don't pay, he's legally, 100% on the hook for it.

I have never heard someone claim their heroin and cocaine were "homegrown".

Isn't this how a CAT scan works? you build a 3d model from a radial series of xray scans. the machine rotates around an axis with you in the middle, then infers the 3d shapes involved. of course its xray and not just shadows, so we see inside you.

Exactly. If there is a chargeback, it's a chargeback. That comes straight out of your merchant account, you don't get paid.

Further, your monthly fees and percentage may go up if your chargeback rate is not kept at a reasonable rate... IIRC there is a fairly direct relationship there. If you can manage to be a low-chargeback account, you can negotiate better deals.

It's also arguably not "harmful interference"... it's a legitimate operation within your network.

IF you modified it and used it in such a way as to intentionally interfere with otherwise licensed (or license-free) spectrum, then hell yes, you could be.

Your microwave oven, as designed to be used, is certified for it's intended use. If it was leaky by accident, and interfering with stuff though.... you'd have to not use it - and continuing to use it after a warning would put us back to the first part of this discussion. It may not cause harmful interference.
