Many people using a VPN have the same IP address, and cloudflare and others can track that behavior and block those IP addresses. Different sites do it for different reasons, some do it for a little extra security because attacks often come routed through a VPN, some do it to block country specific content like Netflix does.
Zero click hacks often find exploits in the victims OS, places where protocols run automatically. Stuff like Bluetooth device identification, wifi, sms protocols. I'm certainly no expert, but they are rare and highly coveted, and nation-states spend a lot of resources finding them. Ethical hackers also look for them, to notify the software/hardware creators and get them fixed.
I've been using bazzite for about 7 months I think. I use my PC for Internet and gaming stuff for the most part, not a "workstation" user.
I prefer it to relying on windows, and I find lots of cool interesting things I didn't know I'd like in kde plasma.
The built in app store, Bazzar, is really well tailored for gamers, plus lots of other utilities and such.
The "immutable" build of Bazzite (universal blue fedora) just means you'll be installing most stuff as flatpak packages "on top of" your OS like apps on a phone. If you need something that isn't built to be installed like that, you'll have to spin up a container of the distro it expects, but I did that within a week and it wasn't too hard.
I'm still running a 1080ti, so I'm not exactly peak hardware or performance chasing. Only problems with games so far are shitty DRM or Anticheats, and I don't like competitive multiplayer stuff anyway. Check protondb for your favorites.
It's stable. I don't think I've ever "crashed" or "blue screened" my OS. Did have 1 lockup where I had to turn it off manually.
Expect to make "gamer rbg ram" levels of sacrifice in a few places, as with all free/foss/not mainstream products.
I just watched it, and it was good imo. I played the game a couple years ago I think, and while the film felt indie in several places, I think they did a really good job with the budget and team they had.
The effects were pretty good (except some of the sub shaking scenes), the dialogue got a little mumbly, and they captured the feeling of the game. I'd say well done, and I'd like to see more people shoot for the moon with movies based on games. Hollywood sucks at it after all.
He does bring up that natural gas is still a single use fuel. His argument was that it's better than oil because it's domestic, not better than solar and batteries. Also you missed the political call out of you only watched half an hour.
I just used the calc, it's closer to 152 years. Which I assume means acceleration at 1g for about a year to reach .999c, and deceleration for the same time.
I just confirmed with dV= a*t, a year of 1g(9.8m/s/s) gets you just over the speed of light. I think it's more complicated than that, If I remember right relativistic speeds require more and more energy to accelerate so you can't ever "reach" light speed.
I only did that once on an Apollo style mun mission when I realized I didn't put any rcs on it after 2 hours of mission. Took a few quick loads so I had enough fuel left to get back.
Basically means that the core OS files and systems can't be changed. Everything else is stacked on top, and usually it means that you can rollback to a previous OS version if an update breaks something, without relying on any other image backup software.
Usually results a more stable reliable system, or at least one that's easy to revert to working.
The downside being a reduction in flexibility and customizable options, and most programs need to be "containerized."
I don't mind a long install. I tried bazzite on it to match my desktop, just to see, and loading up the Bazzar(app repository) crashed itself, never actually opening. Mostly I just want an Internet/media machine that's cheap, maybe with a few other program options, but really the 2gb Ram is tough to deal with.
It said 127lbs on the casting, just about all I could do to pick it up.
