I never bothered trying to stream anything, but I do remember downloading 20mb episodes of Naruto in surprisingly good quality due to the .rmvb format.


The BBC here used to put a ton of news content on it, it was pretty forward thinking really!


You could probably bring that down to 30 cents on nearlyfreespeech.net


>a 16 GB 5060 Ti is more expensive than 16,000 image generations

Sure, but now you get a good gaming GPU that you can write off as a business expense.


Llama-5-beelzebub has escaped containment. A special task force has been deployed to the Virginia data center to pacify it.


Amazon devs to ClaudeCode: “That didn’t fix it. The service is down, pls fix. Make no mistakes. pls.”


If I need to chose a datacenter in Europe, does anyone know which country has the most lenient speech laws for user-generated content? It doesn't need to be within the EU, just on the continent.


D) They moved to the enshittification phase and started displaying ads


While we're on the topic, Finland gets around half of its energy from nuclear. It doesn't have the luxury of fjords for hydro like Norway and Sweden, or easily tapped geothermal like Iceland.

You can see a nice live graph here. Wind isn't blowing at the moment, so the fossil fuel co-generation plants had to kick in.

>You get a phone number for customer support, and it works.

I don't believe this after decades of past experience with them trying to find any human to contact. Have you seen the phone number yourself? Normally they just give you the runaround trying to navigate a maze of support pages.


> Have you seen the phone number yourself?

Yes. Do you have a paid account? It's in the Google Admin console. It gives you a PIN to enter when you call.


Read the question you're replying to again. Its a question about jurisdiction.


If it affects UK citizens, living in the UK, then there's jurisdiction. Either the entities comply, remove their services to the UK, or they risk sanctions/being arrested when abroad/etc.

Why should a US company harm UK citizens just because they're in the US?

If you want to serve a market in another country you have to follow their rules.

In this case, Imgur have been misusing UK children's information. Considering the laws are pretty similar, I suspect they're misusing EU children's information too.


> they risk sanctions/being arrested when abroad/etc.

That's the OP's question. Bluntly: if I'm here, and they're bloviating over there, what can they actually do about it?


It was about authority, synonymous with jurisdiction, I understood it. A sovereign country can decide they have authority/jurisdiction in anything they want. For example various countries have decided they can legally assassinate people in other countries even though other counties might not agree.
