If you use IPv6 globally routable addresses for your services you can avoid all split horizon DNS, NAT, hairpin, etc. With the magic of IP routing and maybe some custom wireguard route advertisements your packets will go through the shortest path wherever your client hosts are.
I bought this light a week ago. My overall impression is great satisfaction.
Positives:
I LOVE the beam flexibility. I use flood most, spot second.
The throw in spot mode is great. I feel a reluctance to buy a dedicated throw light because this does the job.
It feels solid in my hand without feeling bulky. The heatsinks and wider lens housing do not feel wide at all.
Neutrals:
The UI is meh. I do not have significant issues using it. I set the brightness I want for the activity then I dont change it for an hour+.
Bonus hidden UI: after you change modes with a hold press, you have again 3s to change the brightness with single clicks. So it is possible to adjust brightness without powering down the light, but feels like a hack not intended use
Negatives:
The included wrist strap has a wimpy attachment string, met with an equally small lanyard hole. I do not trust it with the weight of the light.
When pressing the button while locked, the indicator lights dont show the current battery level. They all blink. Missed opportunity.
Metro series games use bullets as a currency. Theyre small, not easily produceable in the setting, and have inherent value (you can shoot your money at enemies). Great design.
+1!!
I found this guide very inspiring: https://melonking.net/thoughts/lets-make
It focuses on the creativity and self-creation aspect of writing your own websites. The site is quirky but also geniune.
If you drop the “from anywhere” part, you can set up a pihole with a static address that you can use from within your LAN, without any involvement from your ISP.
Read section “Assign your Raspberry Pi a static IP address” of https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/running-pi-hole-on-a-raspberry-pi/
How touching. Let me play a sad tune on Canada’s smallest violin. 🥺
Apparently this message used to be common when GDPR first came into force.
Also, I love that the response code is 451. It’s meant to replace a generic “404” for content unavailable specifically due to legal reasons. And of course 451 is referring to Ray Bradbury’s book of the same name.
I miss the “good web”.
We can contribute to making a part of it good again with one of these kinds of sites.
I did my part! It is a fun experience. No JS. No CDN. With a webring.
I went to my town’s Canada Day celebration this morning. It was really nice.
Great design!!
Thanks for your experience.
It seems a common reason to set up a frontend is for family use. I suppose that is a logical extension of designing a system for its users - if someone wants to use it a certain way, they get to use it that way.
What are your reasons? Discovery / searching?
Nice! Thank you for sharing your experience. :)
How did you get your NAS to know when it was being used?
I’m a fan of simplicity.
Which software do you use to run your NAS? I have TrueNAS scale.
No TV, yes spouse. She prefers playing media from the network folder just like me.
Makes sense! Thank you :)
I disagree. I believe this is object oriented and the object is Point.
You’re right that the syntax looks different. But whether the object is before the function name:
obj.fn(p)or after the function name:fn(obj, p)does not change its status as a parameter. It is still required to be present in the invocation in both cases.Object oriented isn’t about where the parameters go, it is about how the program is organised and designed.
