I have a router with opnsense which has q plugin for wireguard making things quite easy for me.

A router is usually also always online and sits at the center of a network so it is the best place for it but there is nothing stopping someone from setting it up with commandline on a home device.

https://www.wireguard.com/quickstart/

There are many online video guides that cover different ways to do it (like docker)

In all casss you first setup a main server on the device that stays home and from it you generate a peer per device you want to connect. (A bunch of settings/codes) Sometimes a peer is a qr code that your device can scan (wireguard app for some devices) otherwise you have to manualy type.

Once set you can just leave it on. The only exception i found is some apps for local payments, presumably because they require both devices to report the same location to perform a transaction.

It is a valid use case. But thats not my usecase by far, which is what was asked.

My comment is slightly directed at people i know irl that are not very technological and believe that surfing the web is inherently not safe, but completely safe one you pay to connect to name_tm.

My apologies if it felt condescending for people who have good reason to tunnel outside there local jurisdiction.

I get the idea but all of it depends on placing your trust in some company who’s entire business model is to sell you privacy.

If you live in an area with such heavy censorship then can you trust the business that is legally allowed to advertise and sell to you?

I personally think such company is way more likely to sell my data on the dark web then the government has resources to investigate what web domains i have visited.

Whats this with vpns using capatchas?

My client device having the right encryption key is the authenticator for me.

I think thats what the strawberries mentioned are referring to

Mine looks nothing like me but even my partner says it would be weird if i ever changed it. It really is part of my identity now.

You got it wrong like me. You wake up in the body of your character, not their world.

Edit: i just realised you wake up in the body, not the world. Too bad, i put to much effort in it now.

How am i going to play Minecraft without fingers?

Where computor?

The proportions are decent, the handwriting is solid and consistent. Very clean and readable presentation.

If you have kids it becomes really obvious when a drawing is “childlike” vs “from a child”

I remember rumours at school that the strawberry flavour could get you instant addicted.

I doubt that is true, but I considered it a positive that people were worried about it.

Then the modern vape cartridge got invented and just like that the youth is back to paying companies to inhale poison.

Can absolutely, should without further context? Hard no.

If they pose an actual threat you have a right to defend your family. Thats an entirely different then they should be hurt as payback.

Mentally ill people are not fucking around. They are also not finding out because they don’t always understand what they did or why others reacted, They just need help.

Actually i think you might be one of those people.

My kids have like all kids acted inappropriately in public at times, and i don’t want to know how you would respond to it if they accidentally invaded your personal space in the process.

So it’s possibly its the son who is to blame for possibly not taking good care of mentally ill dad.

They might even be trying to pass off their own guilt of knowing that dad needs a caretaker to go in public into blaming the family.

But now i feel even more that i should quote this part of the article, cause its all we have been doing.

The police urged people “not to speculate on the incident or its circumstances” and to let police “conduct investigations and establish the facts of the case”.

How do you know this is a pervert and not just an awkward confused elder?

It could have been a pervert yes, thats why you get up and tell them off. Make it clear that they’re being inappropriate.

Public shaming is incredibly effective in altering future behaviour.

But you don’t actually know their motives.

I also don’t think the old man is pretending anything, it’s seems to be his son who is doing that and talked to the media.

Personally i think that son should realise dad is at a stage where they should not go outside on their own.

I am worried for you repeatedly concluding that violence is the only way to send a message of disapproval.

You can use your voice, you can use verbal signs like getting up and closer, without touching. Showing that you are ready to physically defend your child if the stranger does not back off right now. There is a huge realm of interaction between “letting it pass” and “violence”

The message the child receives is, someone randomly invaded my personal space and my parent got very upset with this person.

What message does it send to a child to respond to any socially wrong interaction with instant violence.

Being a parent though i can understand the sudden emption causing a violent outbursts. But at least these parents understand after the fact that they could responded better.

How about an en”tire” tire appears where it makes no sense for one to be there.

Whether upscaling is slop is based on the algorithm.

Asking chatgpt to improve the image is not upscaling but thats definitely what happend here.

There is a whole ass tire in the ai image that is not in the original… because if you know what a car looks like there should not be one there.

The same phenomenon happens with coloring old photos with ai.

What it should do is assign colours to pixels. But every time i see one posted its a colored recreation with details wrongly added.

This being ai slop is also mildly infuriating.

Not sure what the context is to warrant this reaction. I am not part of the anti-everything-ai mob.

I fully agree on both points. Llms are here to stay and people need to learn to use them.

That said: “please check the output before you hand it out” seems like such a basic minimum.

i am actually shocked that usually smart people, including school teachers. Don’t practice this minimum of quality control.

But this wasn’t a teacher, this was “the administration” a plural of people of which any could and should have done this minimum.

At that point just hand out empty notebook instead. Its would actually be useable. It would be way less damaging to the image of the school. A School that cant write legible text in officials documents isn’t worth sending my kids too.
