I’m pretty happy here in our corner of Lemmy. Why would I want to know what’s going everywhere on the internet all at once?

I’m guessing if you have to pay the government, you can get government approval.

Keeping sending the checks to inflate their balances.

They exist here in Australia too. Which is a Commonwealth country with lots of English influenced heritage and culture.

Just read the Mormons have some cash laying around. Maybe tax that a bit?

Sounds a bit like the topiary scene in The Shining. (Book version)

I’ve been very happy with Ubiquity Edgerouters the last few years. Their ER-X model can do 1Gbps total… So if you’re downloading at 500Mbps then you can upload at 500Mbps. It come in about USD 60 I think.

Next level up is the Edgerouter Lite 3. It is much beefier and can easily handle 1Gbps both ways and even faster. It’s just under $100. 99 or so. Maybe you can find it on special.

They are really prosumer and definitely much stabler than typical consumer routers. Eg I haven’t reset mine in more than 2 years.

It’s not open source like mikrotik but they are very hacker and tech use friendly. Most things work via CLI. And most advanced router functions are supported.

What do you want to do? How fast is your internet? 1Gbps fibre requires something much beefier than 50Mbps.

How many servers do you have going? Are people accessing them from outside?

How many people in your household? Are they gamers and need low latency? Heavy streamers? Working from home needing VPNs?

Without this context just look at a pricelist.

Just be less poor. /s

But seriously in business class you can tell them if you want to be woken up or not and they’ll remember and respect it. Or course you can also probably get something to eat even if you missed meal service.

Star trek is notorious for having bad first seasons.

If a piece of hardware can’t run doom is it even hardware?

Won’t someone think of the Irish people on beaches?

Maybe the easiest method is to create the fusion reaction in space because then you don’t need to worry about containment. Have a big ball of fusion going nonstop and then beam that energy to earth.

Then have collectors which receive that beamed down energy. You could put them everywhere… Maybe close to where you need the energy like directly on top of buildings and houses.

Enshittification and masturbation.

It feels good to be home

Shut the fuck up Donny!

At least it’s an ethos.

I suspect they’re thinking about port forwarding. For another torrent to connect inbound to you, you need to have a port open for inbound connections and most VPNs don’t provide this as standard.

But you can still torrent if you don’t have ports… But you can only initiate outbound connections to other peers. And it works two way… Those peers you connected to can request data from you without problem.

However if there are too many peers without ports then it becomes a problem because no-one can successfully connect with each other.

I’m not one of these 2 arguing. But in general the app servers don’t do caching or state handling.

You cache things in a third external cache such as redis or memcached. So if a user connects to app server 1 and then to app server 2 they will both grab cachee info from redis. No extra db calls required. This has been the basic way of doing things even with old school WordPress sites forever. You also store session cookies in there or in the db.

And even if you weren’t caching externally like this, databases use up a lot of memory to cache tons of data. So even if the same query hits the db the second hit would probably still be hot in memory and return super fast. It’s not double the load. At least with postgres this is the case and it’s what Lemmy uses.
