In the March 2019 core update to search, which happened about a week before the end of the code yellow, was expected to be “one of the largest updates to search in a very long time. Yet when it launched, many found that the update mostly rolled back changes, and traffic was increasing to sites that had previously been suppressed by Google Search’s “Penguin” update from 2012 that specifically targeted spammy search results, as well as those hit by an update from an August 1, 2018, a few months after Gomes became Head of Search.

Search engagement is declining, so the obvious fix is to make the search result worse which means people have to search more to find what they need. Engagement metrics went through the roof! Crisis averted!

Thanks to this fuck up, competition is a thing again in search engine space. Other search engines are getting better and start to capture the fleeing users.

It's kinda make sense that the military would want to use homegrown product (in this case, samsung) so they can fully control what's running. They seem to want a fully locked down device, with wifi, usb, tethering, mic and camera disabled while in premise.

The reason is purportedly because iPhones do not fully comply with the restrictions outlined by the National Defence Mobile Security, a mobile device management application operated by the military authorities.

For instance, when activating the security app, it begins to restrict several smartphone functions, including the camera, Wi-Fi, tethering, USB functions and the microphone.

However, Apple does not allow third-party apps to control iPhones’ inherent features, except for the camera.

The automaker released the Fisker Ocean SUV in June 2023. During the company's earnings call last week, it warned that Fisker might not have enough funds to survive 2024.

Seems like the company is going down even without the bad review.

So, where did they put the brake? Is it converted to electric regen braking?

Wow, I never thought of using usbip to work around wayland issue with kvm apps. Sounds useful as a last resort to get kvm working.

Unfortunately, with the current popularity of digital downloads, consoles aren't great for patient gaming because they rarely give a good discount for older titles on their online stores (especially nintendo).

Yes, but autossh will automatically try to reestablish connection when its down, which is perfect for servers behind cgnat that you can't physically access. Basically setup and forget kind of app.

If this server is running Linux, you can use autossh to forward some ports in another server. In this example, they only use it to forward ssh port, but it can be used to forward any port you want: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/ssh-and-http-raspberry-pi-behind-cg-nat

It's strangely looks like the styling on phising/scammy sites. Or maybe it's the other way around, phising sites actually aim to look like cia site.

By "remotely accessible", do you mean remotely accessible to everyone or just you? If it's just you, then you don't need to setup a reverse proxy. You can use your router as a vpn gateway (assuming you have a static ip address) or you can use tailscale or zerotier.

If you want to make your services remotely accessible to everyone without using a vpn, then you'll need to expose them to the world somehow. How to do that depends on whether you have a static ip address, or behind a CGNAT. If you have a static ip, you can route port 80 and 443 to your load balancer (e.g. nginx proxy manager), which works best if you have your own domain name so you can map each service to their own subdomain in the load balancer. If you're behind a GCNAT, you're going to need an external server/vps to route traffics to its port 80 and 443 into your home network, essentially granting you a static ip address.
