Came across this in an old post the other day. Was confused until I realized I was on a post from 80 days ago.

Sounds like someone else is watching on your profile.

Physical media is still the best quality for those of us that care. I rip it to watch digitally, but I like having the physical backup and option to watch with minimal compression.

Why TF is The Verge reporting on an Ars article. I’ve already read the Ars article, so I thought this was further confirmation. Annoying…

Doesn’t need to be the case if you segment your network to protect against ARP.

Don’t have the Wi-Fi network “upstream” of the LAN. You want the connection between the LAN and Wi-Fi to be through the WAN so you get NAT protection.

The risk is the ISP Wi-Fi. As long as you’re using WPA with a good long random passkey, the risk is minimal. However, anyone who had access to your Wi-Fi could initiate an ARP spoof (essentially be a man-in-the-middle)

ETA: the ARP table in networking is a cache of which IP is associated with which MAC Address. By “poisoning” or “spoofing” this table in the router and/or clients, a bad actor can see all unencrypted traffic.

As an FYI: this set up is vulnerable to ARP spoofing. I personally wouldn’t use any ISP-owned routers other than for NAT.

They’ve been an extremely reputable “record-less” VPN for multiple years now.

As I replied above, no they don’t. I never bought coins. This is from when Reddit bought Alien Blue.

Did you read the original post? You can no longer buy coins.

I’m optimistic, but I’m not seeing this in my experience, yet. Sure, the “front page” of Lemmy is good enough to keep me off Reddit. However, most of the individual pop culture communities I participate in are super active on Reddit and pretty much dead on Lemmy. For instance: /r/onepiece vs the multiple communities on Lemmy. That subreddit often has more comments on posts than members of the Lemmy communities.

Pretty sure I got them from when Reddit bought Alien Blue.

I’ve got 14600 coins to spend. What should I do with them? Don’t want to benefit Reddit…

Technology is confusing to the masses, which news articles appeal to. They likely know what Twitter is, and that’s the best comparison.

Twitter has gotten A LOT worse since Musk took over. The blue check brigade is given priority across the entire site, so you’re likely to see all the bigots and qidiots more than those engaging in actual discourse.
