confirmed in ios 15: VPN set to ondemand (which autoconnects shortly after boot) leaks dozens of dns requests not-via-vpn on boot of iphone, divulging true client IP <-> VPN IP association to DNS server.

when you have an ondemand VPN configured on an ios device, your DNS requests will leak to your DNS server from your non-VPN'd ip.

i always assumed that ios VPNs were super leaky. i will bring receipts soon.

the bottom of my 13" xps is burning my legs under moderate load. :/

it's a real bummer that display connection technology is bifurcated for pc/mac. i have two really nice 5k high dpi displays (lg ultrafine) that connect only with tb3 usbc, designed for use with macs, and i would love to hook them up to a kvm and use them with my PCs here that have high end GPUs but those don't speak thunderbolt, so i have mac monitors and pc monitors and they won't talk to each other.

are there pc monitors that are as nice as the lg 5k ultrafine ones (nice: ppi/dpi)?

why is everything cloud-enabled now? i got a ledger nano s and the app you use to update its firmware wants you to agree to a privacy policy and terms of service and presumably uploads my serial number somewhere i don't want it to go. why do people tolerate this shit?

my 128gb 10core i9 extreme with the 3090 has ended up not dual-booting any longer but single-booting windoze to do VR and games. i need a linux workstation. maybe i will get a lower end computer and move 3090 to it for VR and use that box for Serious Business.

i have LG 5k thunderbolt (usbc) displays. i would like to buy a small form factor pc with 32-64gb of ram that can drive them at 5k. please advise.

i'm pretty sure this isn't illegal (this is happening on an imac pro which, last i checked, is "apple-branded hardware") but i'm also pretty sure that it should be

i wonder what apple's akamai bill is each day

"it's like uber, but for holiday nights in busy urban environments"

what's something small and cheap that can do wireguard at 1gbps?

apparently pop os 20.10 is no longer supported. that makes sense now that it's already uhh, 21...... oh wait no

i think due to a strange twist of fate, running monterey in kvm in a virtualbox popOS vm on catalina on my imac pro is actually allowed by cider daddy

what even is this

when pc hardware is half as good as mac hardware i'll think about switching to a computer that's only half as good. until then, we wait

the comments are an interesting read

"Every major-numbered release of macOS is more annoying than the one before. Each release includes terrible new UI decisions, removes useful features you've come to depend on, and restricts the use of your computer as a general-purpose computer even more. It has probably been steadily down hill since OSX 10.8."

He's right.

per the dsmos haiku, apple thinks i'm stealing because i run VMs.

i'm beginning to get annoyed with this company.

hmm popOS identifies itself by phoning home to
