If true, I'm not aware. Feels bad man.

Yeah, we ( you guys ) should fork the internet.

There's Meshtastic and the like ( I think ) but then again what we'll build there? Another fediverse ? I don't see the difference with what I have now.

Isn't Tom Cruise's Edge of Tomorrow a direct adaptation of this manga?

But if it's just inspired, I could also see the connection.

As you said, it's ten bucks for a decade.

I've use mine for years with no issue, and if any it's my fault not the domain.

Yeah, it's hard to judge how much the gap between beginner and them. I remember there's one where LPL doing some seminar, I was like "He's an actual lawyer???" like I can't believe the locksmithing part is just his hobby or something.

Except master lock

"You can open master lock with another master lock"

Oh, so are they (IDK the name but dude is locksmith but also throwing knives) pretty elite skill wise in locksmithing space?

I have no point of reference for that but in rock guitar term are they like Stevie Vai, Guthrie Govan level ?

If my brief research for HA sometimes ago is correct many popular brand have it, at least for electrical switches like lamp, also garage door opener conversion but the few I watched looked like a pain to set up.

Right ?! Networking is voodoo witchcraft.

I was bored and decided to actually read wtf the deal is with IPv6 since my ISP gave it but never bother to know more.

All my devices can reach the ipv6 internet without me touching it, so I thought at least I could learn how to replicate my pretty simple lab but with v6.

3 days later I still have no clue how to assign static addresses properly. What do you mean each device have multiple addresses?? Android (google) didn't support dhcpv6? Wtf is SLAAC ?

The DHCPv6 on Android Soap Opera as they called it, pretty fun read.

Also the folks at IPv6 sub seem to be majority professional because they can actually parse the RFC spec and treated it like mandatory Ed. Pretty nice and welcoming comm all thing considered.

It's a whole rabbit hole and I still don't know if my IPv6 is good IPv6 or not, and with bottom of the barrel equipment looking for guide is a pain. IPv6 content in general is pretty sparse even within the self hosting comms.

The simplest would be having a VPS I think.

I grabbed an Oracle free-tier many moons ago. The x86 one with 4 gig of memory I think? The arm have a much more core and memory but unless you go with Pay As You Go (PAYG) account ( need a one time refundable $100 credit) it's virtually impossible to grab it.

My free tier account is sufficient as pure VPN for accessing stuff, you get 10 TB/month egress traffic. The downside is it's Oracle, and you are at their mercy ( they can purge it without notice )

I never tried it because CGNAT but maybe Dynamic DNS could also solve this.

Other than that, Tailscale / CF tunnel are a fine solution ( for now )

Indeed. Dude my main pc is just a modest last gen r7 32G with decent gpu. And I'm glad I pulled the trigger for the 16g upgrade last year.

Now I don't personally believe in higher being, but I'll be lying if I'm not nervous everytime I power up the thing. If anything breaks even if I go a tier cheaper I couldn't afford the replacement.

Is there another reddit exodus ? What happened ?

I don't think they proposed an all or nothing attitude. We as individuals can do "something".

It's reduce, reuse and recycle.

Like the one you're replying to, my phone is a 6 years old flagship, bought it 3 years ago similar case with most of my electronics, I bought it used.

Got pretty old solar panel, little battery but meaningful capacity.

I'm no vegan but since I'm SEA-an majority of my diet is plant based anyway. And it's not enough to fully sustain myself but I do grow a few kitchen staple.

Use public transport, if none available then vote for whoever proposed it.

I know it's a drop in the bucket in grand scheme of things. But that's the extent me as normal individual can do and I'm content.
