Is DNS tunneling not used anymore? I've been thinking of setting one up recently

I mean, on the scale of things, typical computer usage is just not that much energy, right? Compared to stuff like air conditioning and transportation. My server, which is old and probably somewhat power-hungry, uses ~125W. A house-sized

Surprised the 5ESS wasn't mentioned on here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5ESS_Switching_System > The development effort for 5ESS required five thousand employees, producing 100 million lines of system source

This one seems more reasonable, but I recall seeing similar projects/initiatives in the past, aimed more towards post-apocalyptic scenarios... and yeah, I share the same exact thought as you. Computers are totally useless in such a wor

This is cool! Though there's some irony in using a whole separate door sensor for the "off the hook" detection, when the phone already has such a sensor in it... IIRC, when the phone is on the hook, it appears as an open circ

Completely overkill for just an intercom, but an analog telephone adapter would let you connect those to a VoIP server (like Asterisk, etc). Could be cool. For just a hotline/intercom setup, I think a telephone line simulator might do

It's been said several times already but I really love the names. They add so much flavor to it and, surprisingly enough, really seem to get my imagination going, haha.

Huh, this is kind of an odd post to me. I've used Docker for several years for many projects, plus other container technologies (LXC, systemd-nspawn). But I've never touched Kubernetes in my life. Could barely tell you anything ab

I don't transfer files super often in my local network, but even when I do, gigabit is... honestly fast enough. Like it's never really bugged me.

What a bizarre choice. If they're going to commit to weird ASCII control chars you'd think they could just use 0x1C to 0x1F, which are explicitly intended as delimiters/Separators... sigh. (I've always wondered why more

My whole issue, however, is the glorification of social anxiety and the conflation of social anxiety with introversion - exactly as you said yourself, they are not the same thing. An introvert would probably avoid small talk and would quick

That is completely fair. And I agree it doesn't have to be enjoyable, nor do we all have to specifically seek it out, or even engage in it when offered. But to call it "labor" or "a chore" or (I've even seen th

For sure. Raven Rock is badass. As a kid my family used to go skiing in the area (Liberty mtn) so it blew my mind when I found out (via the Internet) that there was an "underground Pentagon" nearby. Fun fact if you're curious

Love seeing these get brought up. It's a really fascinating system from an era when communications infrastructure was a bit more visible. It's one of those things where, once you learn it exists, you'll start seeing them (the
