Client -> Reverse Proxy -> Upstream Server

It's quite rare these days for a client (eg web browser, video game, phone app... anything that needs an internet connection, really) to directly connect to the server that is actually serving the request.

It often goes through a reverse proxy which can direct the request to the "best" server (reverse proxies can have multiple upstream servers, either as a cluster that can share the load all dealing with the same service, as a bunch of different services, or both).

This has a lot of benefits for service admins (at the cost of mild complexity), and has near-zero cost for clients.

Plasma 7 is being renamed Desktop For Plasma365 2027 edition.
Everything is electron apps. Native apps are ran as web assembly inside an electron app.
There will be no UI, only a shitty AI chatbox that is always suggesting results from askjeeves (and takes 5 seconds before it suggests anything from your local machine).
Oh, and it's a monthly licence now.
And it's actually just a laggy local UI of the actual desktop that is ran in the cloud on a container with 512mb ram and 1 CPU.

Oh wait, this isn't microslop.
Good things on Linux (generally) stay the same or get better, not different so "line goes up".
I think I'm still getting over the windows PTSD

I read it as "pick up support for the FOSS projects" as opposed to user IT support.
So, contributing to the FOSS.
Even sponsorship would be awesome, in a "we can't do the tech stuff, but here is 10% of what we saved" kinda way

Fire needs fuel. Glad we figured that out!

But actually, this is about developing a model of wildfire burn.
So, using satellite information gathered before previous large fires, the study reckons they have a 60% accurate model for how a wildfire will burn. (From a quick skim of the article)

You commented on their post?
The person you blocked is the OP of the post you commented on directly. So, it's kinda expected they would reply to you

It's a draft spec.
6 is probably finalised and being implemented.
7 is probably late stage finalisation.
So 8 can be started to be drafted.

If it doesn't squidge like a folded ketchup packet under a toilet seat, it's not doing shit.
You want it dripping to the case to couple the cases thermal mass. Leaking out of the case and onto the floor is better than liquid nitrogen.

Yup. It's not giving an example so "e.g." doesn't make sense

For example fake bible verse

I guess using an LLM is technically mathematics

Or, the bill fails.
But all of its objectives get packaged attached to other bills that are actually required to be passed.
So you get some random bill about the shape of car exhausts which suddenly requires OS providers to verify users ages

I fuckin knew it!

Venlafaxine (SNRI).
Took a couple weeks to settle into side effects, and about half a year to dial up the dosage (with side effects being a few days to a week after dosage changes).

But it was pretty immediate. I think a big part was the act of treating it, the act of getting help.
Had a lot of ups & downs, took a while to "trust" it, to recognise it working. And building the habit of taking meds helped maintain a schedule.
