It’s a Proton VPN service, where they hop you through multiple servers. I guess OP assumes this is a thing for all VPNs? Or they are calling servers, VPNs.
But they are testing between different Proton VPN servers, one with “Secure Core” and one without.

warm@kbin.earthto Privacy@programming.dev•70,000 government IDs leaked in Discord data breach22·6 days agoThe need to protect children from the many online harms is real, so its understandable that governments around the world, from the EU to Australia to Canada, are keen to follow the UK’s newly-enforced age verification law.
Uhh no Proton. The only thing that should be mandated is parental controls, then leave it up to the parents. All these age verification laws do is make the internet a more dangerous place for everyone, not just children.
But this isn’t about safety, it’s about state control. Don’t be complicit in that, Proton… you already have fucked your public image recently.
warm@kbin.earthto World News@lemmy.world•BBC and Netflix sent legal letter over Israel film boycott391·6 days agoHow deluded is Israel really? They don’t even have compelling arguments for anything, the UK Equality Act?? Israel isn’t even in the UK, how could that ever apply? Besides, that’s not even the point of the act, it doesn’t prevent companies from not working with other companies and actors can choose to turn down any contracts they like.
Fuck off Israel.
warm@kbin.earthto World News@lemmy.world•Yoon Ji-ah's Death Sparks National Outrage — Inside the Shocking Case That Exposed a Streamer's Dangerous Fan Relationship7·11 days agoAbsolutely, its so much worse now. South Korea has a massive problem with it’s “idol” culture too, it’s batshit insane. Wouldn’t suprise me if most of her viewers thought they were going to be her boyfriend.
What???
Look at the post again… it’s misspelt as Alpha. When in the phonetic alphabet it is spelt Alfa.
Where’s the confusion in anything I said?
Incorrect. Alpha is the Greek letter.
Alfa is spelt this way in the phonetic alphabet to help with pronunciation in all countries, as ‘ph’ often makes a different sound.
Spelt alfa wrong though
NewPipe or a fork. I personally use PipePipe. The interface is much nicer than anything else, no over the top “modern” design, just simple and functional.
Ahh, so it was about the SoC and that is somehow being loosely related to the thinness of the main body of the phone?
You’d do a lot better in discussion if you made your points clear from the get go instead of being hellbent on trying to validate yourself. Good luck out there!
The vivo X5Max was 4.8 mm, the Moto Z was 5.19mm thick, also bonus, the S25 Edge is actually 0.7mm thinner than the iPhone Air if you measure at the camera. But why are you being dense? Nobody is arguing the thinness, but that it’s not an astonishing engineering feat.
If you follow the phone market, then there’s lots of phones that have new technologies before Apple. That’s always been the case.
If you want a thin flagship example that you couldn’t find yourself, then the Galaxy S25 Edge, is 5.8mm, with a smaller camera bump, better main camera, plus an ultrawide, is lighter, has more SIM support, higher resolution and brighter display, USB 3, bigger battery and faster charging.
The iPhone Air is not astonishing at all.
warm@kbin.earthto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that if you search "Password generator, [x] characters, [y] strength" at DuckDuckGo, it will generate a password for you.211·18 days agoAre they sending data? I’m pretty sure this will just be generated on the client.
It’s not really astonishing, that’s Apple’s marketing speaking. Phones have been thinner than this and the tech that Apple are using now already exists in many phones. Apple are great at selling something as new and innovative, their marketing is what is astonishing.

On top of a subscription disguised as a battlepass, they dont need lootboxes anymore.

warm@kbin.earthto Privacy@programming.dev•VPN usage at risk in Michigan under new proposed adult content law1·1 month agoThen what? They are going to ban the use of cloud hosting? The end solution is a national intranet, a great firewall and it would destroy the USA. It’s ridiculous to even suggest banning VPNs, but that’s the right for you…

So they just want MKBHD basically.
