Sometimes it’s easier to check ChatGPT’s answers, ask follow up questions, look at the sources it provides and live with the occasional hallucinations than to sift through the garbage pile that google search has become.

The whole last season of GOT.

Those are just dns lookups.

It is. But it is open source and the encryption is solid. All communication data is end-to-end encrypted. They have been subpoenaed before and all they could provide was when the account was first registered and when it was last used. The signal protocol is well documented and open source. The foundation and LLC behind it are registered in California and are run by reputable people.

Telegram is run by shady people, supposedly out of Dubai, while it is registered in the British Virgin Islands. Its clients are also open source, however the encryption, if enabled, is of the home cooked variety, although it was improved over time. Unfortunately it is not enabled by default, you need to enter a „secure chat“ for that, which only works with single contacts, not with groups. Despite having access to everything else, and working like a social media-messenger-hybrid, telegram is very reluctant to get rid of clearly illegal content.

I have a similar setup and in the end just went for a cheap chinese („ESKEVE“) 4x HDMI 2.0 KVM switch that supports 4K60. No problems except HDR does not work properly, which is not useful on my monitor anyway. Laptops are on USB-C docks with HDMI 2.0 out, PC uses a passive DP to HDMI cable.

Aaand … it’s ads. What a surprise.

Happened to me as well. Tooth got infected so bad that OTC painkillers did not work anymore. The anesthesia made the painful area smaller, but could not eliminate it entirely due to the acidity of the infection. Still, it was much better than the pain from the infected tooth.

Go to the dentist folks. And if you are afraid of them, like I was, find a very kind one and get help before the pain forces you to get over the fear.

Any HDD should be able to get at least 100MB/s sequential write speed. Unfortunately torrent writes are usually very random, which just kills hdd performance. Multiple parallel downloads or concurrent playback from the same disk will only make it worse.

Using a SSD for temporary files will absolutely help. It should be big enough to hold all the files you are downloading at any one time.

You could also try to find a write cache setting that works for you. That way what would usually be many small writes can be combined to bigger chunks in memory before sending them to storage. Depending on how much ram is available I would start at 1GB or so and if it is still bottlenecking try in- or decreasing until it improves. Of course always stay in the range of free ram.

Back when I was torrenting (ages ago) write cache helped a lot. It should be somewhere in the settings menu.

l2arc is a read cache. Slog only is for synchronous writes.

And a lot of money.

Funny that it also works like it was made by mostly IT illiterate folk.

Telegram is shady as fuck and also afaik only uses end to end encryption in „secret“ one on one chats.

Details or continued news of Ukraines special military operation to denazify Russia?

Weird

Sure, the twelfth time‘s the charm.

If you bought an Apple TV in 2015 you will still get at least this years tvOS update, if not more. How many devices has google announced and buried since then?

Yes, mice are forever mice. That’s the problem, it’s just a one time sell.

Don’t forget the maze porch and the fans and ac units stuck randomly in walls.

99% of dog owners chose a breed that looks similar to themselves.

If you ask people about their favorite pet or breed and why they chose it, they will tell you what they most value in humans as well. Usually it’s also how they define themselves (more or less accurately).

Jill Stein is another Russian asset. Might as well elect Trump.
