MU-MIMO (Multiple-User Multiple In Multiple Out) does [math] to assist in directing signal to multiple clients at once via multipathing, which this reflector would fuck with the math of in (I think) a detrimental way. Regardless of its impact on that technology, higher-end wifi phy rates (the negotiated modulation rate between 2 stations, i.e. the wifi access point/router and your phone) would get shredded by having a reflector bouncing signal between the multiple antennas, forcing clients into artificially lower speeds for a [potential] marginal boost to gain.

This stopped being a helpful thing to do somewhere around the transition between wifi 4 and 5 (802.11n --> 802.11ac)

I am 80% sure this is a net loss with modern mu-mimo radios, and it will absolutely trash your phy rate

Alternatively, you use the cloudflare money to sue the monopoly to decouple search and all other products, since blocking the AI trawlers shouldn’t have any measurable impact in search rankings

To be pedantic, that’s not consistent with Libertarian dogma from Libertarians I have spoken with. NOAA/Weather was one of the parts of government that they were consistently in favor of being a government service vs privatized, along with defense and other base infrastructure (like the power lines being public while the generators are private). I guess it’s possible that I’ve not gotten updated since 2020, but the logic at least used to be internally consistent there.

They’re not a url, they’re just a string that’s often a url. There’s no (technical) reason why it couldn’t be a signed public key, or a signed url that the camera app could validate

After the back half of that post, I strongly disagree.

As long as the word is ‘moregarlic’ we are going to get on just fine

We all knew this was going to pass.

If you thought otherwise I’ve got a bag for you to hold.

Sure, if that’s a reasonable option, but letting the kid hurt themselves isn’t always practical. Letting the kids find out ‘messing with the pot of boiling water is bad’ the hard way, as an example, is not what I would consider good parenting.

This doesn’t solve for VPNs no longer offering it though, unless the VPN services started offering pure v6 via tunnel at some point while I wasn’t looking. I know I’ve never seen a v6 pier in the last few years since I started sailing again.

i want that community note to be real
