Exactly! It just feels so wasteful. I imagine it’s to sell a higher capacity at greater cost for higher profit.

I can’t tell if you’re arguing in favor or against smaller capacity drives but personally I’d like to see smaller sizes on the market for devices that don’t need a freaking terabyte of storage. When I was shopping for a small mini PC I use as a router I couldn’t find anything smaller than 256 GB so I settled for booting Alpine Linux into RAM (“diskless”) from a USB drive.

I’ve felt like I’m in a simulation quite often. It sounds very cliché and I never thought I’d actually feel it (the idea has always fascinated me but c’mon, really?) up until the last few years.

I don’t really care either but I think immediately calling it “not news” is maybe a little much.

I use this website quite a bit but there are tons (just search for “what’s my IP address”). This is another good one for testing IPv6.

The simple explanation is that on IPv4 it’s 99% probable that it’s the case that everyone on your home network appears as the same IP address on the internet. With IPv6 it’s possible but highly discouraged, each device would have its own IPv6 address (though it might still be obvious they’re related).

So yeah, it really does seem like they’re hating on your home network.

Or ip address?

Makes sense since their shit hole servers only support IPv4. You were all probably NAT’d to the same IPv4 address.

You should check out this video, it’s very eye-opening when it comes to how microwaves work (only linking to YouTube because I couldn’t find a decent Invidious source): https://youtube.com/watch?v=UiS27feX8o0 (edit: https://materialious.nadeko.net/watch/UiS27feX8o0)

It depends on your model of microwave.

Personally, my wife and I intentionally deprived ourselves of a microwave in the house because we recognized that it makes us more prone to heavily processed foods (we’re not crazy “5G/microwaves give you cancer”people or whatever). We just recognized that we like eating whole foods and having one on hand makes it tempting to start buying a lot of garbage foods.
