Pretty sure bitlocker is enabled by default since Windows 11 rolled, to my understanding it's part of the reason they now require Microsoft accounts for device on boarding.

Fair. Maybe I'm just feeling lazy.

You running the cable for my hardwired ones or....? Cause $50 for eufy/ring/whatever is way cheaper than having an electrician run the cabling and if they're bringing wi-fi jammers to the robbery they're premeditated and definitely taking your shit regardless of the system so it ends up a problem for your insurance company regardless.

If you've got credit card paranoia, Privacy.com has a solution for you. I personally just rely on my credit cards theft/fraud protection programs.

I somewhat share this sentiment but I was also just answering the question. There are actual reasons one would want to host documentation/etc on a already realized provider vs infrastructure they'd have to configure and potentially pay for themselves.

Takes time and resources to setup a web page. Takes 5 seconds to spin up a discord server or a telegram group and they handle all access control. Not my preference, but for ease of deployment a lot of people prefer to launch there.

Whoever was implanted with this was restricted to having lost complete motor function and likely had extremely poor quality of life, opting for this procedure as a last hope. I get you're making a joke but I hope you understand it's at the expense of someone in a terrible situation who's undergoing a significant amount of suffering and likely was prior to any interaction with Musk.

Looks like this will be great for those operating gigabit or simple home networks, but lacking for anyone doing in depth home hosting/networking. A little disappointing as I'd love to go with open source hardware if it were up to snuff for at least a 2.5gbe LAN.

I don't personally disagree, but I don't know what sort of business challenges they face. Also I should add that 132 Million number isn't traffic or transactions, that's verified customers that have made at least 1 purchase. That all being said there is definitely a redesign/restructure/rebase needed, but the ship takes crew to keep it sailing even if it needs remodeled/repaired/etc.

Not sure where I said anyone is evil. Just that people dismiss parallels that clearly exist at opposite ends of their moral compass because they want to feel morally comfortable in their choices without actually considering them, especially when they're ones they've been making for a long time. In my personal opinion we're past the point where we need to process animals for consumption and (America) has gotten to the point where it is borderline concerning how separated from our food we are, but I'd draw short of villifying anyone simply because we're all creatures of the mud flying on a big mud ball across an seemingly infinite universe and to claim black/white good/bad as objective in that regard would be overstepping my understanding of reality.

Sites at that scale that cannot afford errors, downtime, or system breaches operate massive IT teams just to keep the systems running. That's before even touching Logistics,Advertising, customer service, seller outreach, brand management, human resources, etc, etc. Ebay in 2023 had 132 Million customers. That's 12,000 customers per employee per year, or 32 customers per employee per day assuming they worked the full 365 solid. A rather lean storefront actually, probably propped up significantly by the labor of their third-party sellers.
