@rmdes OH. Thanks, but asked for support on the other side (not Cloudflare) to find a workaround. Thanks again.

Have a Cloudflare registered domain which I need to configure, temporarily, to point to a different nameserver. HELP.

We do expect Apple to honor robots.txt - unlike the other companies out there. Can someone please confirm that Apple’s bot does honor this?

Got a scare there earlier when I checked ProtonDrive and it was empty, with a message asking me if I want to start Recovery procedure. WHAT? What the heck happened? Not a good sign.

I know there are Bunny CDN users here - can you help me? Have a subdomain that is under my full control and want it to be behind a CDN with DDoS protection (not the Elon Musk kind) like CloudFlare - does Bunny require that I shift my domain’s nameservers to it, like CloudFlare? Can I just have one host beh... my.advocrazy.com

@SamStrongTalks @jsnell If macOS learns that users do this for 3 consecutive months and make it last until a new version of the software gets installed, then I can live with that

Elon Musk lied? no, this isn’t true! bwahahah if he told the truth, that would be the end of him

Elon lied about DDoS, lied about the numbers, and what else? Oh yeah, every single thing!

Yes! Google-Apple deal will cease - no more forcing Apple users to use Google search as default. Frankly, Apple should have done this a long time ago by providing users a choice at the start.

Why would Apple release a one-camera premium iPhone model when it needs users to generate more spatial video content for Apple Vision Pro? Curious.

@manton @jade same thoughts as well. Allowing iPhone SE and above access might just kill Apple's cloud infrastructure. LOL

@numericcitizen is there an iPadOS 18.1 already? Or iPhone only at this point

Avatar

@rom

Thinking of installing iPadOS 18.1 but it does not appear on the options - is it an iPhone 15 Pro/Max only release? Or is it appearing as iPadOS 18 first (I have iPadOS 17.6 running currently)?

For those behind CloudFlare’s services, are these bots being blocked, too? It is a cat-and-mouse race between blockers and greedy SOBs!
