• Microsoft CTO: "Thoughts on OpenAI" (2019)

  > I don't know a single techie person who uses Windows (other than for gaming) I'd say that Windows actually has some nice software, like MobaXTerm: https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ which in my eyes is better than Remmina or pretty much anything I've found on nix, short of just running the same thing on Wine. WinSCP is also pretty cool, albeit nothing particularly special: https://winscp.net/eng/index.php PowerToys... - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

• Hard disk LEDs and noisy machines

  For working with remote machines that I need to ssh into I've found mobaXTerm[1] to be a very useful terminal emulator. It has an optional remote monitoring feature that shows the usual stats as a small bar under the active terminal window. It's a windows only application though.

• Day 1 - Get to know your server

  There are various SSH clients available for Windows (PuTTY, Solar-PuTTY, MobaXterm, Termius, etc) but if you use Windows versions older than 10, the installation of PuTTY is suggested. Source: 6 months ago

• What old, outdated apps you still use on Windows and find useful.

  Everything - find files by name fast (using the ntfs journal, so strange this is not in windows itself) SpaceMonger old free version - show visually what takes the most space on the HD MobaXterm not outdated - the best SSH terminal. Source: 9 months ago

• Information Security Best Practices

  Automate everything. Use a password manager, enable automatic updates, use DNS malware filtering at router level (Free with https://quad9.net ). Source: 6 months ago

• Firefox has surpassed Chrome on Speedometer

  Depends on your region and what sites you're using. I live in the middle of nowhere far from civilization, and 1.1.1.1 returns terrible IPs for many sites including google.com (which pings at 350-400 ms if you resolve it through 1.1.1.1, but at 90-100 ms if you're using any other resolver). They do it because they block EDNS0 in order to protect your privacy or something like that. So I use 8.8.8.8 and 9.9.9.9 in... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• 96 ms to a DNS server OK?

  9.9.9.9 is run by Quad9. They’re more privacy oriented, afaik. Source: 11 months ago

• University wifi

  Ask your university support desk? You can also try alternative DNSsuch as https://quad9.net . Source: 12 months ago

• is this dns hijacked?

  Yeah I don't trust ISP DNS, they can see your traffic and dns requests. Using a more privacy dns server like Cloudflare https://1.1.1.1/ or Quad9 https://quad9.net/ are good and free. Source: 12 months ago
