Sorry I think your browser cached a bad redirect that was up briefly =(

Valid, but it's run by a group in the UK that runs several of the popular ones. It's prooooobably not going anywhere.

It's probably torrent clients doing a ping test of peers to check latency. Ops VPN server replies to the ping so they look close, even though they're not.

I can't imagine a client that would ship an ip2geo db to bother trying to look up locations. Just doesn't make any sense.

I wish I could get more into this, but yes there were some major missteps during the covid/post-covid "stocks are crazy high, money is free!" period. After that there just wasn't really a way to recover.

Unfortunately it's pretty hard to avoid VC money, the tech industry runs on it.

Many. Unfortunately I also can't talk about them, yet.

Fuck Forte.

Phoenix was the best place I'd ever worked until they came along. Fucking bitcoin bros destroyed everything because they didn't understand the games industry.

I read something recently about progress on that. Google is only finding this older article for me right now though : https://www.tomshardware.com/news/new-gpu-power-connector-eliminates-cables-delivers-more-than-600w

This. Go pick up something like a used Lenovo Tiny. You'll get way more power and flexibility

Lemmy doesn't log ips or associated them with accounts.
