Been to Mexico lately? BDS and other Chinese manufacturers are killing it, they make Teslas look like a Model T.

Hate that you’re downvoted for this. Tailscale is incredible software but it is buggy as hell.

I gave up on 90% of the fancy features and just do most my routing from one node with good ol’ nftables and ip route/ip -6 route.

Holy shit!

Edit: I have to say, this is a great website for testing ad blocking.

You realize Lemmy is a network of federated servers right? Like, I’m not on the same website as you but you’re reading my message.

This is one of those things that if you really want to do it, you’ll have to live with the consequences.

I’m an American that VPNs everything first to my VPS then down a double hop commercial VPN tunnel that finally exits in Switzerland. DNS traffic also travels over that VPN tunnel so you’ll rightly guess that my DNS is rather slow too.

What I do is I run a resolver on the VPS (physically near me) that aggressively prefetches commonly queried DNS records. After years of using Unbound I found Blocky to be much, much faster (especially with huge blocklists). It’s to the point now where sure, it’s slower than a “normal” internet connection but it doesn’t feel slow to me anymore.

Storj Tardigrade with client-side encryption. I use rclone so you could even encrypt it before hitting the Storj library if you’re extra paranoid (among other things like caching, chunking, etc).

Oh believe me, I know all those issues exist. The idea would simply never happen.

Yeah, I know my idea is a pipe dream—it would never happen due to greed.

When I was like 10 I wondered why hardware didn’t just have some flash chip with its driver source code written in a standardized way. The idea sounds corny in retrospect, but honestly why isn’t it a thing?

Am I a former Reddit user? And why don’t you capitalize proper nouns? The slop is everywhere and it’s not even AI generated. 😭

What’s up with to try and everywhere?

Frankly I’m more concerned about the fish themselves than I am the fishermen. Both are huge environmental problems.

It can be specific to the web application but generally speaking you’d want to pass the protocol, client IP address, etc.

What in the hashtags is going on here?

Might not be exactly what you’re looking for but I find Gotenberg quite handy for related activities.

It might be too early to say but something tells me they won’t be sending their best. I’m sure some of them are good people though.

Damn that’s a great idea! Cheers!

Yeah. I go to the post office semi-regularly and I see people complain about this problem; the employees just roll their eyes and say to mark the mail.

Not going to say I haven’t done that but I’d rather stop receiving it at all.

What do you do after doing this for 4+ years for the same person and bank, and you’ve gone as far as showing up in person at the bank’s local branch?
