  • almost everyone has air conditioning, so doors and windows stay closed in summer

    When I moved to the PNW, it was a shock to me that most people did not have air conditioning, especially in apartments. My first apartment had none, and summer was pretty unbearable. I think it's climate change doing it's thing and maybe it wasn't needed before.

  • Is it normal to feel dehydrated after drinking carbonated water? That's why I avoid it, personally, but I wonder if I'm just fucked up.

    Homeowner Baffled After Washing Machine Uses 3.6GB of Internet Data a Day

  • Ah, my power isn't cheaper at certain times, so I didn't think of that. I wonder if you could control and monitor all of it with an ESP32.

  • My washing machine has wifi, but I have never even been slightly interested in enabling it. I set up a monitor to notify when done by monitoring the power consumption of the breaker. Once it drops back down to zero after a couple of minutes, it triggers a notification. I don't know what else I could ever need.

  • I didn't say they didn't. But if a site is blocking you, that's the site admins configuring that, not Cloudflare.

  • I'm not sure why you're trying to bring that up when this comment of yours is what I've been responding to the entire time:

    Nope. Cloudflare use a complex set of fingerprinting tools that determine security scores. It's literally social credit system for web user agents and the site admits have little control over that.

    Cloudflare does force nor opt in site admins to use the score. You said that site admins have little control over that. That is not true, because site admins do not have to use the score when configuring WAF. If they do not configure blocking based on score, they do not block the scored traffic at any point, no matter the score.

    Your comment before this one said:

    You control the score but not how its calculated. My score is incredibly high just because I'm on Linux with Firefox - how important is that to you as an e-commerse site admin?

    So I said that the score doesn't matter if you don't block based on score. Since my client with an e-commerce site isn't configuring any WAF rules based on the determined score, then it isn't important to me (as a site admin plus their Cloudflare administrator), because it's not a factor at all.

    Now, if you were to enable the rule to block based on score then it could certainly affect users, because it was configured to do so. It comes down to proper configuration of the tools provided. If I were going to use the WAF rule based on score (again, I don't do this, because I use other rules to check for malicious traffic), I would configure it with a managed/interactive challenge and not block them entirely. Cloudflare provides you with a percent metric based on how often this challenge is passed.

  • I said that in my original comment:

    just not over the calculation itself

    If you don't use the score, it's not a factor. I don't use the score at all for my clients. You are not required to use it.

    Jump

  • It's literally not limited. If you don't put a WAF rule based on the score then it doesn't get blocked based on the score. It's that easy. I've got clients and my own site on Cloudflare, so I know how it works. You don't even need the pro subscription to do that.

    Jump

  • While true that there are security scores, the site admins set which score (if any) to block at. So, they do have control over that. Same goes for the bot fight mode as well. So, site admins do have control over whether or not to block based on the associated score, just not over the calculation itself unless configured otherwise.

  • I'm using a VPN with my cloudflare reverse proxies right now. That blocking is configured by the website owners, not Cloudflare.

  • ChatGPT joins human league, now solves CAPTCHAs for the right prompt: Could this bot-prevention technique now be obsolete?

    Jump

  • I posted this elsewhere, but CAPTCHAs have always been used to train models, and have always had to improve themselves even before LLMs blew up. This article was posted from a site with an .ai tld, and seems to be doing the whole Sam Altman "I'm scared of AI, AGI is right around the corner! I certainly don't have a vested interest in making you think it does more than it actually does"

  • So, if I click the block button (which, trust me, I plan on doing regardless of your answer), you think that it somehow prevents others from seeing you be this dumb?

    If someone walks away from you in person after you tell them the dumbest thing they've heard all day, does that somehow mean they're censoring you?
