Hmm, for me it just says “This item is not available for purchase in your region”, not sure I know that currency.

What you see in stuff like Google Maps or OpenStreetMap isn’t plain Mercator, it’s a variant called “Web Mercator”

And the US DoD doesn’t like it because it introduces even more deviations than plain Mercator.

I quite liked the locale in FC5, but the (nearly?) unavoidable captures the game would force on you when you did too much open world stuff annoyed the hell out of me.

Then I had the ending spoiled for me and I just got too annoyed at the story planners and never touched it again.

You can’t do normal BitTorrent in browsers, there’s no support for plain sockets that you’d need to communicate with other peers, WebTorrent is technically a new protocol that implements the BT semantics over stuff the browsers do provide (So you can proxy between the different swarms, that’s the “hybrid” nodes in the image on the WebTorrent page)

But it turns out it’s all a moot point, since PeerTube removed WebTorrent support anyway in favour of their own P2P system

Edit: Ok so I misunderstood, and it seems like it’s a bit complicated. The server can (it’s disabled by default) use WebTorrent to import videos, the client still uses the WT trackers to find peers but uses a different protocol to actually share the video data.

There’s this tool that provides the ability to automatically seed videos, but development has stalled because no up to date client will ever make use of it.

I think the one remaining use is the “download as torrent” option, but even then that’s just using a web seed, so it’s just an alternative way to download the video.

Unfortunately WebTorrent isn’t compatible with normal BitTorrent, so unless you’re using a client that specifically supports it, you’re not helping out any PeerTube clients

What’s the problem with that, though? Systems like that are pretty much guaranteed to be isolated from the internet.

Because things break down eventually, and when it comes time to buy replacement parts you discover that they’re effectively impossible to find. Then instead of having a nice, planned transition period you’ve got like a weekend to cobble together something to get it working again.

Yep, our center-left government recently announced plans to keep using natural gas for at least another 25 years

But it’s ok, because we’ll work out carbon capture in the future! Which is the exact same notion that our previous right wing government based their policy on.

1. If your ISP doesn’t do IPv6, then you’re fine (But should look for a better ISP)
2. If your ISP does do IPv6, then you should install the patch now (Unless you’re not using IPv6 on the LAN, in which case you’re fine but get a better router/sysadmin)
3. If your ISP does do IPv6, but you can’t install the patch for whatever reason, only then should you disable IPv6

The problem is people recommend disabling IPv6 for random unrelated reasons (Like gamers claiming it decreases your IPv4 latency), so yeah MS is going to be insistent that users not fiddle with things they don’t understand because it’s really unlikely they’ll go back and restore that config when it doesn’t actually help.
