Me personally; I have a similar mini pc with kubuntu installed, coolify to deploy my projects & cloudflare tunnels to expose them to the internet. the mini pc is still usable for daily use so that's great too

Hilarious ngl

I never heard of the game but the visuals look so good. It reminds me a bit of Octopath Traveller

Me personally I use it to upload files (from my phone or sometimes other random devices) to a folder I call "void". "void" can be used by everyone to upload something but only I can read it. I also have some public pics, vids and music files here and there. It's so convenient & easy to handle, honestly a better alternative to other cloud providers in some ways in my opinion.

I've been using it ever since it got really popular last july; it's super duper convenient. Especially when I am on a different device (work laptop; or something else, just anything), Whenever I need to upload my data somewhere to access it later I just upload it to my configured folder (which only admins can read; anonyms can only write). I also have some other folders publically visible for everyone with some pics & vids; (unreleased) music here and there

Wish it would look exactly like the first version

Definitely a worse design, curious what was the reasonning

Cloudflare DDOS protection is super essential (especially for smaller businesses)

DDoS prevention may be essential, but not CloudFlare.

Who is motivated to launch DDoS against smaller businesses? What do they have to gain?

My small SaaS app has been DDoSed a handful of times, always accompanied by an email asking for a ransom in the form of bitcoin.

The first time we switched to Cloudflare which saved us. Even with Cloudflare, the DDoS attempts are still damaging (the site goes down, we use Cloudflare to block the endpoints they're targeting, they change endpoints, etc.) but manageable. Without Cloudflare or something like it, I think it's possible that we'd be out of business.

Anyone that has $5.

I've also got €5, but I see greater return on investment in spending them on a lottery ticket than in DDoS'ing arbitrary small businesses.

I know, but people love the feel of "power", especially when it's cheap or even free

And here I was wondering why my website shut down & why I couldn't tweet about it

Very interesting tbh! + I have never heard from kagi until now & I just decided to check out following link

https://help.kagi.com/kagi/why-kagi/why-pay-for-search.html

Now tell me why the whole article has been written by AI? It's literally AI slop itself

> # The hidden price tag

> In 2022, advertisers spent $185.35 billion to influence your search results. By 2028, they'll spend $261 billion. This isn't just numbers - it's an arms race for your attention.

> Every dollar spent makes your search results:

> More cluttered with ads

> Harder to navigate

> Slower to deliver answers

> More privacy-invasive

I wrote the article personally, before LLMs were a thing. And you have git history of changes as our entire documentation is open source. People usualy cite it as a well written page.

What makes you think this is slop?

Also, I think many people use the term "slop" and "AI was involved" interchangeably, but to me, they're not synonymous. To me, writing blog posts with the help of AI is fine (grammar checks, structural help etc.) while auto-generated content generation w/o human oversight is not.

The negated sentence structure "X isn't just Y -- it's Z" directly followed by a list of 3 or 4 bullet points. Maybe the bullet points are a heavy reach but nobody can tell me otherwise of the former.

I agree on your first part! The whole article does read like slop tho; it's more like "Human was involved" here

AI writes like that because it was trained on the internet, which by now is mostly marketing copy.

Your heuristic isn’t just coarse — it’s misleading.
