31·14 days agohttps://xkcd.com/37/ oh wow, I need some mind-bleach now.
19·2 months agoBecause behind the carrier grade NAT I don’t get a routable IPV4 at all, so no inbound connections.
With the IPV4 I use I do use dyndns now, so I can resolve it from outside.
IPV6 is already rolled out in parts of the world. My provider has a Dual Stack lite architecture, the home connection is over IPV6, IPV4 is normally being tunneled via V6 through a provider grade NAT.
As I AM a network nerd, I pay for a dedicated IPV4 address every month, so I can reach my stuff from outside from old IPV4 only networks.
So when I plug in my router, connect a windows machine and just google stuff then all this traffic will be IPV6 without me configuring anything.
It’s so great fun having the attack surface being doubled by dual stack setups.
5·2 months agoI’m a German (currently even on vacation in the US). The political world is so crazy the last years, the authoritarian vs liberal segregation infecting huge parts of the world.
The Harris vs Trump race is one that fills me with hope and fear all the time. (We Germans have some history with right wing failures who get into political offices)
I hope Walz, the new vice president candidate will be an asset to win the US elections. Those have ramifications around the world.
In case Trump wins, even if we can still hope it won’t come to an authoratorian regime in the US, the orange old man would be an end to multilateralism, putting the world into a state like it was before WW1.
No, but I have a device with a LCD display where I can look it up
There’s another trick - checking against street maps. When you walk/drive/ride around a corner the phone can use it’s inaccurate GPS reading and update it according to where the corner is. Of course it doesn’t use ONE corner. to fully update your position, it just nudges the position a bit closer.
In case you are navigating a lot of street corners, after a time an inaccurate GPS position will be corrected.
There’s even more input to the algorithm (location of known WIFI Hotspots for example etc) and they are all combined with a “Kalman filter”.

Vorsicht vor dem Limbotänzer!
Wie Adolf Hitler throne ich hier, die braune Masse unter mir.
I’m keeping a mumber of my first generation Eneloops around. Around 10% of the ones I bought in the 2010s died, the others are still duing duty in my TV remote control etc.
The ones that died mostly died because of staying in a moving box for around 6 years or so after I divorced and forgot about them.
So I’m amazed how many of them just keep working.
Tbh, it’s not a fairy tale but an illustrated children’s book written in 1845 by Heinrich Hoffman for his three year old kid. It was one of the first illustrated books, so it is considered to be one of the first comic books. Each story has a morale but is way over the top.
Interestingly a lot of the descibed behavior is known to be with ADHD or anorexia, today.
Growing up in Germany I always find Struwelpeter a quite horrible book (yes, I too had it a kid).
Therefore they are soup.
I can’t relate as well, as I live in a city where things are really really aafe. But there are places where a women are afraid to walk alone in the dark, even for a few steps. (And even in safe places some people are quite afraid)
I’d be very careful with remote diagnosis. You. might be right, she needs therapy. She might just be afraid, because something bad happened to her some time.
The only way is for OP to have a good talk with her what’s bothering her - and then he may come to a conclusion. As of now, there’s just not enough information.
2·3 months agoOh man, you should ALSO have taken off 1.1.1970 (IIRC) to get that day off.
3·3 months agoSpeaking for a friend, they crashed the Mini Clubman S I love… sorry, THEY loved very much because of a WhatsApp that just arrived. Some one five cars ahead or so had to slam their brakes - eyes on the street would have made the reaction time “just enough” but even looking away for one second caused the crash.
Learn from my err friend, don’t look at your phone while driving, even for a very short time.
Damage on the Mini was more than its worth at the time. No one was injured, but even what looks like a small fender bender can quickly get very expensive nowadays.

Jon needs a carbon monoxide detector and a new oven.
Now I am completely unsure whether to call this a dad joke.
Time to make a punk leather jacket with the sylt logo on the back.
