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

I think a better comparison re: cars would be if inspections could only be performed by Ford or GM and the inspection rules were made by them instead of the government. They could say: we’re no longer passing inspections on models older than 5 years old, or if you used non-approved oil or filters the toll roads are gonna block you. They could put ads on your infotainment system and say you won’t get an inspection pass if you block them or replace the infotainment system with something else. Did you bypass the subscription lock on your heated seat? No more highway driving for you.

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.

I think this answer is the most accurate. People get too hung up same names on different servers. There will always be multiple versions of a community whether they have the same name on different servers or whether one of them snagged the og name and others prefixed with Real_x / True_x. Imo I like it this way better because there’s less favoritism to the one that comes first / people can’t universally squat on a community name

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)

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”).

Swipe typing is the only thing that keeps me using google keyboard. Their implementation is the only one that works well for me. I think I used to use Swype before, that feels like forever ago

This would be amazing. Imagine having climate scientists at the EPA…

That’s how you get users to turn off all notifications lol

I am excited to see the community become more active as someone who periodically lurked on .ml for a few years. But also I’m much more active here because I just don’t scroll r/ anymore unless I follow a link to a specific post. I’m all in here now, I feel like it’s crossed the threshold to be sustainable and interesting to daily users even if it doesn’t immediately take over.

Hmmm yeah this does seem to be proxying login info. Ideally it would be done like elk.zone and mastodon where it kicks you out to an oauth flow that returns with an app token you can later revoke in your account settings. But I’m guessing that doesn’t exist for lemmy yet.

On the bright side the UI looks amazing

Random thought related to gold, but I wonder if it would be feasible to make some kind of fediverse tipping system that allowed people to give tips that showed up as something gold-like or award-like. Could be neat, but validating the payment when multiple instances are involved could be challenging without getting instances involved with payment gateways and finance regulations. I’m sure it could be done with crypto but that would probably be offputting to most people.

From what I’ve read I get the impression that eliminating biting mosquitoes wouldn’t have much impact - there are lots of types of mosquitoes and supposedly few are of the biting kind, and at the same time the ones that pollinate or are food for other animals are usually not a significant source of food or pollination, and the ones that do pollinate don’t pollinate anything important to us according to a random article I read. So basically for it to matter you would need to be eliminating a kind that bites and makes up a majority of the pollination or food for something else which seems unlikely.
