The data has been stolen by a criminal group. Paying for "restoring" the data does not guarantee they will delete all copies. There is no way of proving they actually did and they have in fact very little incentive to actually delete it.
You have to take their words for it but how can you trust crooks?
That does not mean I cannot use the ink I want in a tool that I own.
Yes, your ink might be better. Market it that way and make it known. No problem with that. But prevent me from using my tool using DRM and firmware updates? That is customer hostile.
Openrouter will route to china hosted models when there are US hosted providers of the same model. Is there a setting to set your preference or to blacklist providers like alibaba cloud for example?
I use OpenCode and the openrouter provider. From opencode I only select the model like kimi-2.6 and have no way of selecting which cloud hosting will receive my request.
Lots of "just use X" comments but the article is about showing the bare minimum/how easy the core part of routing actually is.
Also, if you have ever used docker or virtual machines with NAT routing (often the default), you've done exactly the same things.
If you have ever enabled the wifi hotspot on an android phone also, you've done pretty much what the article describes on your phone.
All of these use the same Linux kernel features under the hood. In fact there is a good chance this message traversed more than one Linux soft router to get to your screen.
Basically it does not need dedicated hw acceleration because it can use generic vector instructions to reach similar speeds. I wonder how true that is though.
The problem comes when malicious actors start crafting documents with extra features that should not be parsed, but many software will wrongly parse them because they use the default, full featured parser. Or various combinations of this.
It's a pretty well understood problem and best practices exist, not everyone implements them.
Depends on where you are maybe? Cortland is still readily available here (Quebec). Hope it stays that way, I'm feeling slightly worried. Seems like the trend of trademarked new apple varieties has not quite caught up here yet as orchards are not interested in replacing tried and true stocks.
Yes. Besides AGPL makes a lot of sense for any web based tool, as it keeps the original intent of the GPL.
I don't get the hate/questioning on it either. It's a good balance if you want to prevent straight up cloning/stealing for profit motives while still making it open.
