Yep! This is exactly it.
Is that for power deliver, or signaling?
As mentioned in another comment, it’s also close to the safety limit for low voltage systems. IMO solar pioneered (in recent history) 48V DC systems, which is an easy multiple of 12V to stay below the 50V “high voltage”…
I send all my old stuff for recycling now and get a gift card in return. They just did this for my ancient iPad that won’t even run the latest iPadOS. I go on a site, pop in the serial number, and they ship me a box for…
I think this is it as well. I have a card, and do 0% payments. It’s not that bad, but I see how it could be confusing.
I forget who owns Black Diamond, but they're kind of similar. They haven't fully replaced the product, but what is cool is that they have a repair shop that has been doing free repairs for me. I've sent a very…
It’s pretty evident at this point that any Russian citizen in Russia or with family in Russia can be coerced, and it’s also pretty clear that Putin specifically does not have good intentions. There are lots of good…
I mean, storage might be an easier option ;) There are many alternatives, but I have a 10kWh LiFePO4 pack that is sufficient for my house 95% of the time. There have been great strides recently in battery recycling and…
I think the OC was arguing that if your global /64 changes, the firewall rules would change as well for any hosted services. I proposed that you might be able to route the external router’s WAN to a ULA via NAT to save…
Could you NAT the router WAN external address and route it to a static ULA? I think the more elegant solution is to use static IP space for hosting services, but most of us home users aren’t used to that.
Oh, interesting. My machines have not had good mDNS support, so I have been hardcoding ULAs for LAN-only traffic.
Yep! That's a great point! I forgot that LEO encompasses quite a bit of difference as well. Starlink has been in the news lately, so that's mostly where my mind was. I believe the newly announced Starlink shells are…
Not to mention debris can be in GEO for a long, long time. People worry about LEO constellations causing Kessler syndrome, but the reality is that LEO debris deorbits in the order of months/years. GEO is much, much…
STUN also isn’t guaranteed if the router is strict. IPv6 removes a lot of these unknown and strange ways that IPv4 infrastructure can break things.
It’s a little different though in that rather than an IP having a bad reputation, it’s usually a /64. That’s how I have seen IPv6 reputation managed since it’s a common network slice & NAT is not really used anymore.
Why do dynamic address allocations matter? Most IPv4 consumer WAN addresses are also dynamic. I’m asking, because I’m an advocate of having your gateway advertise a separate, stable ULA /64 in conjunction with the…

I think so, but fewer people use it in that orientation when reading.
We are playing God now by artificially and dramatically altering Earth’s set point.
Someone gave me an analogy some time ago that made a lot of sense. If you shine a flashlight through a tree blowing in the wind and vary the brightness to convey information, the signal can get distorted pretty easily.…
I kind of think WeWork’s business model might have succeeded in the WFH post-Covid era. It allows the company to be flexible with meeting space budget without being on the hook for permanent space. My company ran out of…
This is an absolutely unhinged level of a pet project, and I love it so much.
Lua has some pretty neat sandbox-type features. I wonder if choosing it is related.
Yeah. That's what I struggle with. However, I guess increasing dependence on methane is not something we want to increase (to encourage more fossil fuel usage).
Maybe someone can correct my logic. As long as we are drilling for oil, wouldn't the natural gas need to go somewhere anyway? I believe it gets flared if not used. ie - we should responsibly use all the excess natural…
