Their managed solution is pricey and especially the linear scaling with how much you use it is very meh. It's comparable with AWS lambda which also isn't cheap. However it's minor on a typical cloud bill.
Self-hosting is very easy in my experience, I've done it for 2 years but management wanted to move to Temporal Cloud. They have a helm chart which just works including upgrades. This does assume you have the whole k8s shebang set up and working in your company. I never had to touch is outside upgrades which took maybe 30m including validation.
> Will other users of tuxlerVPN be able to connect using my IP address?
"When you use our free residential VPN, you automatically agree to add your IP address into the community pool. This means that you are trading your own IP address in return for the ability to connect via the IP addresses of other users. You can opt out of this by purchasing our premium subscription; once you upgrade to the premium version, your IP address will be removed from our community pool."
It says that, but doesn’t actually do it. Just like Hola/Luminati used to.
You don’t want to route the non-paying traffic through slow and valuable residential connections you can sell, you’ll rent a few fast dedicated servers to do so.
Residential proxies sell for around $1/GB, nobody is running a free or cheap VPN service on that. The idea is preposterous
Yeah - listen to the narrator in the opening on the classic Orson Welles film The Third Man (1949) - he says he never cared much for Vienna before the War, preferring the scene in Constantinople instead.
The American cut of the movie has an intro narrated by Joseph Cotton, who played Holly Martins. The wording might differ (since the movie is clearly Holly's first time in Vienna)
Yeah, I'm talking about the version (which is even on my US DVD) where the narrator is some black marketeer neither Martins nor Lime. "I never knew the old Vienna before the war with its Strauss music, its glamour and easy charm. Constantinople suited me better. I really got to know it in the classic period of the Black Market. We'd run anything if people wanted it enough - mmm - had the money to pay. Of course, a situation like that does tempt amateurs but you know they can't stay the course like a professional."
For some reason, I always assumed the British narration was Major Calloway (Trevor Howard), but now that you quote it, I realize it can't be Calloway. Interesting! The narrator must be someone we never meet.
Would you care to elaborate on what you mean with concert fatigue? I've never heard of it and you're talking about it as though it's something that is so common, it is implied to be known.
Logistically, it is complicated to do that unless it is a small venue and you are an indie band.
It takes a lot of planning, contracts and advance payments to make a reasonably big show to happen. Larger venues are usually booked with months in advance, and most things you pay in advance are not refundable.
This is fully on Apple themselves. USB consortium asked apple to use lightning for what became USB-C, but Apple didn't want to give up the ecosystem control.
That's just plain bullshit? I just checked my local second hand marketplace, and 2 year old flagship models seem to go for about 35-50% of the current equivalent newest model price.
