Some VPNs use ports 443 or 80 which won't be blocked. There's also some which disguise the traffic to appear as HTTPS. It's a cat and mouse game but I don't see the cat winning.

I always use the audio for Lemmy captcha because some of the letters are ambiguous
They steal people's domain names, there have been many reports over the past couple of years. If anyone has a domain with them it's recommended to transfer away. They used to be good, but I assume anyone still recommending them isn't up to date on their behavior.
I looked on Amazon and you can get a set of 14 for £4. There's no need to act like this is unobtainably complex.
Nvidia Optimus and the selector I'm using is MATE Optimus
On my Linux laptop with a Nvidia card, there is a Nvidia program which lets you switch between dedicated or on-board graphics, or on-demand where applications can request the graphics card. Before that the dedicated card was always on. I'm on mobile at the moment, but there is an official Nvidia website with drivers and other programs to control this. I assume the same for AMD, but I haven't checked.
Get the chickens completely relaxed with smooth jazz, then steal their eggs.
I can't speak for everyone, but they increase the security and performance of websites for free. I'm sure a lot of people would like to move away from Cloudflare, but every time I try to find an alternative, none of their competitors even come close. Let's say I moved one of my websites to Bunny CDN and transferred 1TB per month, that could increase my website cost by $120 per year.
The sad reality is that Cloudflare can basically do whatever they want until another competitor offers a good free alternative, which is unlikely because Cloudflare has a monopoly. We would effectively be asking millions of websites to pay to use a service with less features.
I'm still looking for a good alternative, so if anyone has one then please let me know.
Yes because it makes them billions of dollars. It's disgusting.
You don't even need to click for them to recommend it. If you look at it longer than another thing, or take a screenshot when it's on the screen, it's a signal that you might spend more time on the app if they show those kind of things. And the chance of you spending more time on the app means more money for them through ads.
The chance I'll ever go to China is very small, but the chance I'll go to the US is pretty high. Surely the US spying on me is the only one to care about?
