⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Uhh, this might be true for WebRTC, except not much uses WebRTC other than realtime streaming/calling. Jellyfin for example is just an mp4 stream over http; and http(s) will only use the IP in the DNS record. I’d like to see a packet capture if are certain something is switching IP.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Error 1033 Cloudflare⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, YunoHost explains why http://localhost:8536/ wouldn’t be working. If cloudflared and Lemmy are in separate containers you have to put an actual IP in, since localhost points to the container itself.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Error 1033 Cloudflare⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
How are you accessing it without Cloudflare? How do you know that Lemmy is actually listening?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Error 1033 Cloudflare⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
What’s the URL you using to access it without Cloudflare?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Error 1033 Cloudflare⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Can you access it without Cloudflare?

Does curl http://localhost:8536/ work?

You are using cloudflared right? Because normal (non-cloudflared) Cloudflare doesn’t support port 8536.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let’s Encrypt Begins Supporting IP Address Certificates⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
With dynamic DNS? Yeah it always has, as long as you can host a http server.

With a dynamic IP? It should do, the certs are only valid for 6 days for that reason.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3106: Farads⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
No it’s real! I can’t verify the exact rating since it OL’s my meter, but with some circuitry it can power my Pi for a few minutes. But I got them from element14, so it’s unlikely to be a fake product.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hosting services on GitHub pages URL⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
You can host a page with an iframe, but you can’t directly change the DNS record to point to something that isn’t GitHub.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3106: Farads⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Guys you’re not gonna believe this:

50F Super capacitor
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protection⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I think they were trying to say that the cage in front with the AP behind, acts as a directional antenna. Similar to how Yagi antennas have metal elements that aren’t connected in front of the actual antenna.

But I don’t know enough antenna theory to know if that’s correct.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good experience with neko remote browser⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Perhaps there was an easier lighter-weight way of doing this?

Yeah, SSH tunneling. What I would do (and have done in the past) is something like:
```
ssh -L 8080:192.168.0.1:80 myserver
```
That will forward port 8080 on your host to port 80 on 192.168.0.1, so you can access your router’s web UI with http://localhost:8080/ in your own web browser.

You can also setup full tunneling with SSH, but that requires messing around with SOCKS and I usually can’t be bothered.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UPS input load⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Ahh sorry, I thought you meant you plugged it into the input side. If that’s the case then are you running anything that measures CPU usage? I run the TIG stack, it might be able to give you some hits. Also back to my original point which is already unlikely, if it’s a modified sinewave UPS, it can confuse some measuring devices while it’s on battery.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UPS input load⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
It’s weird to do this daily, but it’s possible that the UPS is doing a self test, which would drain the battery a little and the load is from charging it back up.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Queensland council abandons EV charger installation plan after 'dirty nickel' media report - ABC News⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Surely this wasn’t the same report that failed to find any EV maker that actually uses ‘dirty nickel’, but concluded they were anyway.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking Optus doesn't provide ipv6 over cell. And starlink has cgnat.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

Unless you are moving gigabits of data, you won’t notice the difference the smaller header payload of ipv6 offers.

IPv6 headers are usually bigger anyway^1^, so the only advantage is more efficient routing (so infinitesimally better latency), but in my experience most routers only support IPv4 hw offload and not IPv6, so it’s only more efficient in theory.

I just like IPv6 because I get a whole /56 prefix to play with, and devices often randomise their host portion through the privacy extensions, meaning they use a new address each day or so.

^1^ IPv4 is usually ~20 bytes, but it can be up to 60 bytes if you stack a lot of options, IPv6 is only 40 bytes AFAIK.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking Optus doesn't provide ipv6 over cell. And starlink has cgnat.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
You might be able to manually enable IPv6 in Optus’ APN.

My Telstra eSIM didn’t automatically enable IPv6, when my physical SIM did, but enabling it in the telstra.wap APN fixed it.

Title text too: Wow, that’s less than $200 per … uh … that’s a good deal!
