At least on some smaller subs, there seems to be a suspicious amount of brand new accounts asking one question to get human answers.
It would not surprise me if reddit, or some other service, are seeding to get more LLM-able content. Of course, this might backfire if people start giving stupid answers to eff up the data.

There are a few ways to go about it. You can try to use the microsoft RDP like system with XRDP. Or you can go over to VNC.
But I agree, it is a little bit of a fiddle. Keep at it!

I think this is it. Extra margin they can slap on at the last second.
Prosumers aren't going to care, because if the hardware is still OK, they can just re-install.
But consumers end up buying gear that is hobbled with shiteware.

If it helps, there are ISPs that don't do it.
Zen is one of them. (And is a generally better company to do business with)

It's my fault, my default filter is top-12-hours.

I'm not sure how I would cope with 3 brazillian sharks of the coast of newfoundland.

How many billion is that?!

 

Fantastic news, imho.
Personal statements just felt like an extra thing that might cause your application to fail.
I'm 99% sure none of the technical degrees I applied for read mine, and I wouldn't blame them at all.
