This works surprisingly well

I truly miss the days when it was an AI focused on introspection. Now they prioritize (erotic) roleplay and paid cosmetic items.

Nothing can stop 100% of bots. The goal with captchas like Turnstile is to use a significant portion of your resources to the point it's expensive and slow to perform an attack.

Turnstile runs many background checks on your browser, so headless browsers automatically become futile.

JavaScript PoW challenges are performed that take up multiple seconds of execution time, memory and CPU. This alone is a deterrent because sequential attacks become extremely long to execute.

Concurrent attacks are still unfeasible because Turnstile ups the difficulty if it detects something is up, and receiving requests from thousands of botnet IPs is bound to trip an alarm.

Sorry about that man. Micromanaging is the worst. I hope you can get some better opportunities soon ๐Ÿคž

My Pixel 7 I bought 10 months ago is worth only $220 CAD ๐Ÿ˜‚

Mobile Klinik (Telus) gave me a better deal, but still not worth it

Do you know what GeForceNow is? It's new in the sense that it's newly streaming on GFN.

$80 for AAA games is already super expensive. I buy most of my games on sale now.

My carrier is eSIM preferred so I decided to try it out. I had a few hiccups with their app but other than that, it's great. Way more secure since it's encrypted on the device.

Using a symmetric pre-shared key based VPN can help mitigate this issue. While the actual HTTPS data will still use non-PQR cryptography, Wireguard's XChaCha20 and OpenVPN's AES-256-CBC are considered safe against quantum computers since they don't use asymmetric cryptography.

Of course, you still need to trust the VPN provider.

I'm using Stock android. I buy pixels for the android experience and AI features, so I don't want to change ROM.

My pixel is working fine, but if the rumours about tensor G3 are right, it'll be way more efficient and the battery life will be much longer. My current pixel barely gets through the day only on a few hours of screen on time.
