Nooooo. If you do that, you won't be paying for Teams Premium which has built in support for screen recording. Think of the revenue lost 😭😭

Edit: I should add /s incase people think I'm a Microsoft shill

As per the article

on my own network a whopping 66.6% of all traffic is blocked

I stated it's actually 66.6% DNS requests being blocked, not the raw bandwidth utilization. Raw bandwidth savings (by not downloading the non-zero ads) would be much lesser.

Can't we be nicer on the internet?

Correct. The payload of DNS requests is tiny compared to, say requesting a webpage. So there might not be a huge decrease of bandwidth usage reduction. However, having 66.6% less DNS requests is still a win. The router/gateway doesn't have to work that hard because of the dropped requests.

It takes 7+ years to bring a new factory online. more to get all the kinks worked out and at full production

Not to take away from your point but they also have to

  • make sure product is at par with the previous alternative in terms of quality
  • make sure your supply chain is willing to shift to your new product
  • have a healthy supply of workers OR
  • have good automation in their production line (automation supply should also be sourced from within the country)

Once you have created this factory (which needs to be subsidized by the government in order to compete with the foreign product), we then apply targeted tariffs so that people can slowly shift to the homegrown product. Doing all this can takes decades of careful planning.

Tariff is not an ON/OFF switch which Trump thinks

Learn Docker even if you have a single app. I do the same with a Minecraft server.

  • No dependency issues
  • All configuration (storage/network/application management) can be done via a single file (compose file)
  • Easy roll-backs possible
  • Maintain multiple versions of the app while keeping them separate
  • Recreate the server on a different server/machine using only the single configuration file
  • Config is standardized so easy to read

You will save a huge amount of time managing your app.

PS: I would like to give a shout out to podman as the rootless version of Docker

We will have to accept AIs are here to stay. Since putting wheels on grandama is the only way we can get a bike.

What, you didn't know you had to crank the power to high before microwaving your phone? Rookie mistake
