You might be able to get marginal improvement for overhangs by adjusting support z contact distance, if I’m understanding your problem correctly. I’m usually fiddling a bit with mine, too close and supports are hard to remove. Too far and mine looks close to this.

I’ve been happy with the tp link TV-IP324PI, it’s a Poe bullet cam with a simple web interface (I don’t think it requires JS, but at any rate you just need to log in once to set a password, make sure upnp is off, and adjust camera/encoding/fps/text overlay settings to your liking). There’s also the amcrest IP5M-B1186EW-28MM, another similar Poe bullet cam with night vision that works local only. I’ve used both for several years and I think they support onvif but I had no issues using the rtmp url with zoneminder

It’s hit or miss but in my experience as long as you can find one with the same release group as the video file you have it should sync up

Nice tip, though don’t forget to share some trackers too, I’ve been stuck at 0% on a torrent someone shared as only the infohash. I’m guessing their DHT isn’t working, and despite adding trackers, without knowing what trackers any of the other seeds are using it’s just a guessing game adding open trackers blindly, or a waiting game hoping I can find peers using DHT.

I would recommend getting a separate client radio device for several reasons:

• You can position it better for reception
• Get a device with directional antenna so you can point it at the best AP
• You won’t use up 1 band of a dual-band router
• You won’t be limited in your main router firmware choice to only those that support client mode on a radio

Personally I would get a nanostation loco 5ac (non-loco is bigger and probably isnt needed) and flash openwrt on it (that will free any airmax radio from the proprietary airmax limitation), configure the 5GHz radio to client mode with the apartment wifi details, and put in the desired mac into the mac field if you need a specific mac besides the device default. Make sure the radio is set to wan zone so that forwarding works and plug the lan cable from the radio to the WAN of whatever nice router you have.

I used to carry around a nanostation with this config set to xfinity access points with a small script that would pick a random MAC from a list I gathered from wardriving client MACs that I saw authenticated with xfinity hotspots. That way if I ever needed an ethernet connection for a non-wifi device I could just power up the radio and run the script to pick a new mac until I got one that was “remembered” in someone’s xfinity account.

Edit: to clarify, I think the way I set it up was to run dhcp client on the radio’s uplink and then hand out IPs via dhcp server on the lan port, so I think you’d be triple natted, but since you would need to double nat anyway to get around the MAC authorization it probably isn’t hurting speeds any more than it already would be.

This container is great, I use it for my arrstack. If the VPN connection goes down, the container infinitely restarts until it can get a connection again.

I’m miffed that mullvad did away with recurring subscriptions, so you have to remember to refill the account if you have stuff relying on it.

This is the solution. I reverse proxy from a digitalocean droplet running haproxy which sends traffic via send-proxy-v2, then I set the tunnel subnet as a trusted proxy ip range on traefik which is what haproxy hits through the tunnel, which causes traefik to substitute in the reverse proxied original ip so all my apps behind traefik see the correct public IP (very important for things like nextcloud brute force protection to work)

Hetzners risk averseness is so annoying. I tried to sign up and rent a dedi to replace my rack mount nas. Considering electric costs I was happy to pay a few hundred a month for substantial storage. Didn’t realize they didn’t accept privacy.com cards (I don’t even use them to cancel, it’s just so I can change banks and switch 1 billing link instead of 100). Account rejected and deleted and no response from support.

My understanding of the term (from an asian american perspective I guess) is that it at most has a connection to race through the origins of ricing, and since the origins and current usage has never seemed derogatory and is simply about the Asian origins of automotive ricing I don’t think it’s racist at all. I see it as no different to any other term that reflects the origins of something that is connected to a specific ethnicity, especially when the term isn’t derogatory and isn’t used to otherize (which is how I consider model-minority stereotypes to be racist despite not being “negative”).

Don’t forget you can request your instagram zip archive and import all the posts (backdated too) into a pixelfed account :D

I also believe in free housing and transit access as a right.

What’s wrong with AOSP forks in the US? I’ve used both official and community built cyanogen and then lineage for about 10 years now and I always prefer it over stock roms or vanilla aosp

Isn’t it also just not open to federation at the moment? So the federated/decentralized aspect could just be vaporware and never happen. I don’t even begin to take their word for it until it stops being de-facto centralized.

Mastodon is also seeing an influx, but probably smaller and crucially, the signups are spread across many many servers (there are thousands to choose from), so the likelihood of more than a couple getting overloaded now is slim.

The earlier twitter -> mastodon migrations put more stress on the servers because there were far fewer available but things have scaled up a lot since then. And we have a lot more experienced sysadmins and cloud engineers who are capable of scaling up their instances more rapidly at the helm of many of the large instances.

I prefer to do ublock origin/sponsorblock + patreon. Gives the creators a bigger cut and I still don’t see ads. I’m currently at $15/mo across all creators but judging by Louis Rossmann’s video on lifetime ad revenue per user it doesn’t seem hard to offset any loss from ad blocking (iirc he said it was like <$1 of ad revenue for your lifetime of watching a creator). So I feel pretty good about giving most of the channels I watch casually $1/mo, especially when patreon’s cut is so much smaller than youtube premium’s.

That video has become required watching material / hazing ritual for new roommates. Mostly for the detailed explanation on the importance of pre-wash soap, but also for the tips on preheating the water.

The more anti-consumer shit they pull, the more of my friends I get to join my Plex server, for marginal cost since more users barely means any more used electricity.

The ability to nullify side effects :) I’ll be rich as a doctor

It uses the zip archive feature that they allow you to request and export so at least it doesn’t use a direct connection or API. I think there is also some EU rule or something about requiring it because Dansup was asking about filing a complaint because of the export format being convoluted or something, not sure of the details but hopefully that means there’s some legal weight to the export feature sticking around.
