As little as possible. This will probably be a low traffic site. I just want something cheap and not cloudflare.

 

I am considering hosting something and am concerned about DDOS attacks.

I am morally opposed to cloudflare because I think they are an unethical and shitty company.

What privacy focused solutions are there to reduce the likelihood of a successful DDOS attack?

I am not sure. I am seeing this response but since there is no quote I don't know what I wrote.

Yep, this too. They used to feel cool despite being a large corporation. Now they feel like a corporate cesspool with Apps and anti-unions and $10 sandwiches smaller than the size of a drink coaster. It's not fun anymore, and it's not fun to just be there, especially with people running in and out with the App to just grab things.

But look in the positive side, although they probably lost or will lose 30% of their customer base, at least they can increase profits by 1 percent by having more back-end tracking data to sell from some remaining customers willing to download a shitty ad-infected closed source App!

Their prices are so expensive. Corporate executives do whatever they need to in order to increase profits right now, even if it destroys a customer base.

Starbucks also often don't have bathrooms anymore. Starbucks used to be a place you could go to, sit down, use a bathroom if you wanted, use the Internet, and then buy something reasonably priced if you felt like it, but also just be there without buying anything.

Now they want KYC through an App before you buy a $20 Latte so you can get a QR code in the App to use a bathroom, if they have one. The enshitification is real and then they are shocked-gasp, shocked!-that fewer people are there. "Why don't they like the QR Codes?"

Also what the fuck is a tiling window manager? I want it!

I'm sorry, can you clarify what you wrote? I read it but then got distracted by my cursor moving on its own while I was reading an article about xzutils. Perhaps I should read it again since it made no sense the first time.

not entirely.

i stopped reading the first paragraph when i read "becoming a christian" and knew the rest of it would be irrelevant, illogical, and pointless.

i read the last sentence of curiosity.

the correct response to the religious is to ignore everything they say and treat their words like the illogical waste of time that they are.

The fact that things like this happen in the US shows how corrupt lawmakers and the judiciary have become.

In the US, if you don't have money, your life is worthless, according to lawmakers and the courts. And, according to the latest Supreme Court decision signed off on by hypocritical Christian Amy Coney Barret, you can be a criminal just because of being poor: yep, that's what fake imaginary jesus would have definitely wanted.

She obviously doesn't believe the bible fairy-tale on some level or she wouldn't have agreed with the ruling.

Here is her disgusting hypocrisy on full-blast, the supposed Christian, ruling as jesus would, that the poor are criminals for sleeping: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-175_19m2.pdf. (She did not write it, but as a Pro-life in all cases Christian, the hypocrisy is fucking astounding.)

It's unbelievably disgusting. Even if she knows jesus is fake, it's cruel and evil. I am mentioning this case because it sets the tone for how people are treated in the US. If a poor person can be locked up for being unable to stay awake, of course they can pull organs out from a criminal without permission. Why not? They can do anything they want until global warming finally comes with its revenge, destroying the planet for the idiocy of the upper-class selfish myopic morons who demand it with their selfishness.

I'm so happy.

But also liked when linux felt like a secret.

Microsoft finally did something right: they made their shitty product shitty enough for people to realize it.

no! downvotes are cool

but only when they happen to others

 

Reddit is blocking vpns and invites users to create a ticket if they think there's been an error. I almost created a ticket with email address fuckyouspez@gmail.com saying i wasn't sure if I was using a VPN with the body text just being "fuckyouspez!!!!" over and over. I didn't submit it because I thought for a moment "would this be illegal to submit?" It probably isn't, but I am not sure.
