It's probably pretty obvious when terabytes of upload are accrued over a few days like what OP mentioned, by seeding 24/7.
Like most any paid VPN service they need to track bandwidth usage somewhat. They can't see what you're accessing but they can see how much of whatever it is. Windscribe also offers a free 10gb/mo plan so they do track it for that purpose as well, much like any VPN with a free tier would.
Saw a yt thing last night that over the past three months Tesla execs have sold over 175k shares too
CopWatch used to be pretty active and has apps for iOS and Android, but I see they haven't been updated in a couple of years.
Walmart also partnered with Klarna if that means anything to folks reading this. I've seen for years companies like Affirm (AFRM) being backed heavily by Shopify (they have exclusive deals at this point and AFRM is one of Klarna's direct competitors). The BNPL universe is coming for everything, including basic necessities like food now I guess. Affirm is also close with Amazon.
If you turn it on its side it's a tunnel.
Check out Way Down Town filmed in and about Calgary's +15 urban walkway system. Hilarious film.
I've always liked Commento which can be self hosted, and you can set it up to be no sign-up/anon for users.
Thank you lemm.ee admins and welcome new folks! Newcomers, you picked the best instance by the way.
Shopify is already long gone. More pointing out how corruption follows the money. Nobody in sales of a top company is unaware of the fuckery going on inside said company.
Super lazy reporting here by 5th Estate re CRA tax fraud
Click to view this content.
This 5th Estate piece just hit youtube (and they disabled their comments) going into how Intuit (and others) have been leaving tax fraud on the table for years, to the tune of tens of millions in hacked CRA accounts, identity theft, and false return claims from Intuit and H&R Block systems.
What they don't bother to report which is easily found online is that Bobby Morrison was chief sales officer at Intuit, now CRO at Shopify and proud of it.
Do your research, Bobby was on board at Intuit for a lot of shady shit beyond this. Just sayin. Probably worth a mention that one of the top sales guys for Intuit is now running the financials at one of Canada's top billion dollar ecommerce companies.
A middle ground I do often is buy frozen pizzas and then add my own extra toppings. They're usually so cheap and skimp anyhow that I look at it like buying a starter pizza shell.
Everybody poops
lemme.ee doesn't
Just watched this on YT (unrelated to this post) and it's a fantastic upload. They're already achieving 1m/hr drilling speed which stomps traditional bit-drill tech by a lot. And they can go way deeper.
Given that all Lemmy instances are run by private individuals you should probably think about using a vpn (or dns proxy at the very least) to obfuscate your true location and data. This applies to any mainstream or corporate social media platform, obv.
They're anti-tax and pro-tarif. They've been firing Canadian support workers and devs for years and outsourcing overseas. And they've been hiding money in places like Ireland (a tax haven) by opening hubs there.
They are only still in Canada on paper at this point anyhow. Fuck them, go hang out with the wall street bros.
I got one about an hour after the shaking stopped over here on Vancouver Island. That long after, why bother. Several people had already texted/alerted about it.
You really seem to know what you're talking about so I probably don't have to link you to the article about Fanta which Coca-Cola (as you say, listed on the US Stock Exchange) made the "drink of the nazis" and profited bigtime from.
IBM had major contracts with the nazis and developed some of the earliest rudimentary card computing tech to keep track of all the interred jews in the camps. I bet you knew that as well. IBM wouldn't be around today without those contracts and that early tech (and the money it brought in).
What the actual fuck do you have against potted plants that you would use that as an insult anyway.
Look up how IBM, Coca Cola and Volkswagen (among many, many other companies that are very much still established to this day) got their boom-times during WW2 by supporting both the allies and the fash at the same time. They profited from everything that happened, in every way, and continue to do so.
Fascism is good for business, so to speak.
What's to think about? Place export premiums on lumber and other stuff we're abundant in that they need. Does BC not have a plan? Trump has been threatening this shit for two months already ffs.
For some reason this post keeps crashing Boost
Title. Is this happening for anyone else? Cheers.
Is it normal that my OLED discharges 20% per day in standby?
Title. It seems excessive. Even when I fully power it down it tends to drop a lot more than I'd expect.
Thanks.

Litter?
Why is a group of baby kittens called a "litter" and then the same word is flipped to denote the stuff they pee and poop in, throughout their lives if they live indoors? 🤔
Are there any applications that can turn an old smart phone into a wildlife/security camera?
Have been thinking about this for a couple years. I have old phones kicking around. Battery shot, hardware dated, but the camera(s) and mic and antennas still work. Would be cool if there were a way to set them up (powered) to stream audio/video or even take stills at intervals (or motion-activated) and then sync the content to the rest of the devices on my network.
I don't know how complex the programming for something like this would be. But I suspect it's trivial for those who do know.
Hundreds of vehicles began streaming out of the NWT’s capital after residents in Yellowknife, Ndılǫ and Dettah were told to leave by noon on Friday.
Anyone remaining in Yellowknife, Ndılǫ and Dettah must leave by noon on Friday (Aug 18th), residents were told in a fresh, blanket evacuation order for the city on Wednesday evening.
City has a population of over 20k. The pop. of the NWT is estimated at around 45k. Where is everyone going to go?
