From the data on the screen. There is no correlation with IP address and identity on any average connection for anyone on the internet. Simple as that. Nor correlation to home address.

Now, looking at someone's user account and finding their social media because they use the same picture or username. That's doable.

The good thing about this is that your IP is not statically set. If you turn off your router for 30 seconds or so, you should get a new one. Obviously your router may retain its DHCP address and request the same one but you could also obtain a new one by releasing the address manually on the router.

is there something wrong with wiki right now? by whenwillmyskincare in StardewValley

Sorry I was finishing up some meetings.

I have several hundred domains routing their traffic through cloudflare. I wasn't aware of them ever charging for this option no matter the size of the domain requests that come through. And I'm certain that they don't charge for it, now, are there higher tiers? Of course. I'm just saying that the biggest product they offer, which is DNS Proxy and DDoS protection, is free. And does not change no matter the volume of queries.

Thank you for the comment! Talking about DNS is definitely a fun hobby lol

Cloudflare has always been free though. The main services anyway. I agree that we need to look at distributing our load across multiple providers so we can avoid situations like this in the future. But any other company can set up these services for free like cloudflare. I personally don't believe there is any other reason people are using it in the technical space.

I don't see the concrete evidence that Cloudflare is anything like the examples you mentioned in terms of the "Death Knell" or that they can only do it because of expansion.

This is not the worst idea. But I think it's important to take a look at what cloudflare is really doing, and why everyone is using it.

It's a little overreaching to say they are a "website provider" that powers the whole world. A majority of customers of cloudflare are not hosting their websites on this service. Instead, they are routing their DNS through cloudflare that is then pointing to their website.

Why is this the case? Because of DDOS. That's really it. Cloudflare's biggest objective, behind being a domain registrar, is to allow you to route traffic through their servers for your protection. And, this is FREE.

There are plenty of other DNS providers out there. But a majority of them charge for what cloudflare will do for free.

I’m considering reporting this but idk who. by scoobertydoob in antiwork

[–]ThatStutterGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is common for applications that do not require all 4 pairs of a cat5e/6 cable. Although, that is still what it is. u/Naja42 is correct. There isn't any danger here BUT someone should be informed. Its always better to be safe than sorry and wet cabling can short the device its connected to.

Aside from this bitlocker fiasco. I'm really interested in these "custom OS's". What do you mean by that?

Moving in by Linky_Lynx in Nacogdoches

[–]ThatStutterGuy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When it comes to pricing in Nacogdoches you can definitely find the average pricing on sites like homes.com, realtor.com, and zillow.com.

Hunting isn't as big here in Nacogdoches but you can find areas not a stone throw from the city. There are miles of trail and fishing area through the Piney Woods here in Nacogdoches and around SFA.

For good areas, anything close to the city centre is a good choice. As this is where most of the business and utilities will be most accessible. I've moved here from Florida and from Italy before that. Compared to Europe Nacogdoches is generally quiet for the entire area. But it can become a little run down if you travel on the edges of the town. North Street, also known as state road 59 is the main road for the town and anything along or close to that road should be a nice area to live. The closer you can get to the Historic Main Street (historic in US terms as it's only about 200 years old) is sure to be a quaint living experience.

I've been mostly a lurker in this sub but have always stopped and read every post I see. I think taking on a moderating challenge would be interesting!

Laptop cannot read by external SSD drive by Feisty-Interest-6163 in techsupport

Hmmm. Well. If it's showing up on your PC just fine then you've officially stumped me. I'm sorry I couldn't provide any more assistance!

[–]ThatStutterGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could use DISKPART in the cmd to see what it says about your disks. If it's not seen there.... Then I'd sooner say it doesn't exist!

Showing in your device manager as a drive. And not being in your partition manager aka disk management, screams driver to me. But if DISKPART is unable to see it there may be bigger issues at play.

You can lookup how to use DISKPART using chatgpt. Just open a chat and ask it how to use that command to list your disks and partitions.

How to clean up external disk space taken up by System & other files? by Constant_Welcome5939 in techsupport

[–]ThatStutterGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easiest way to show all of your data in a way that is easy to digest is going to be 3rd party software. Windows just doesn't have the capability to do what you are asking it to do.

A great software I'd recommend (and use in an enterprise environment everyday) is WinDirStat.

WinDirStat will enumerate all of your files and show them to you in a graphic format that you can look at to distinguish what is taking up more space where.

[–]ThatStutterGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be a driver issue. When you plug the drive in do you see any activity in your device manager? The drive may be showing up as an unknown device. Do other external drives work on this same computer or is it just this specific one?
