They’re not wrong. It’s super expensive and time consuming to properly train a generative AI model.

Look into the servarr suite. I just add what I want and it finds and downloads it for me.
I’m fine with a rate increase when costs rise, because they’ve also dropped the rate when costs decrease.
I also miss all of the clear cases on electronics from the same time period.
You can get them from AliExpress for only a few bucks each, although I’ve made the switch to pi pico.
A wifi extender only lets you get further from your wireless access point. It won’t increase your speeds unless they’re slow because of a weak signal
Please remove your suggestion for buying 18650s on Amazon. They are full of counterfeit cells, or rewrapped cells with dangerously inflated specs.
Get lithium cells from a reputable vendor that tests the batches they receive. Illumn and IMR Batteries are two such vendors.
Get one with a remote, then get a smart RF blaster. There’s the Broadlink RM4 that I’ll likely be going with in the future.
Or, you could get an ESP32 and an IR transmitter/receiver and use Esphome. Same concept, but completely local.
Why do you think that medication patents are a bad thing?
No medicines have copyrights, but they do have patents. And, drug patents are kinda necessary if you want money to be spent on developing new drugs.
No one is going to dump a few hundred million into developing a new drug if everyone can manufacture and sell it upon release.
Patents aren’t the issue, though, it’s companies charging out the ass because they can.
Except it is; you can add a batch script in your startup folder to disable it on startup. You could also just add the registry key that disables it.
If you’re actually a power user, disabling updates isn’t an issue.
The problem is when those systems become part of a botnet.
Plus, you can just disable the update service if you want to leave your computer vulnerable to attacks.
It’s pretty common for software to be free for personal use only.
What’s the make and model of your server?
Since the server is on an N100 that could very well explain it.
Have you tried changing out ethernet cables and trying different ports?
Also, try hosting the speed test from your laptop and running the speed test from the server to see if the results are reversed.
Most people have absolutely no need to understand how the systems they use operate under the hood.
If anyone does care to “reach up”, it’s not hard to find the steps to disable it on Google. But 99.9% of people aren’t going to do that.
Those notifications have existed for years. People don’t give a shit.
All you have to do is restart your computer every so often and nothing will be forced.
The forced updates are usually after the system has bugged the shit out of you to update for a week or two.
Plus, you can easily disable it.
I see you’ve never taken part in a FedRAMP audit. They’re brutal.
