I use and love vultr too, but their IP space is shit for VPN purposes. Constant captchas from google and eBay. Delta.com is blocked completely. Amazon refuses to play videos and says to disconnect your VPN.

Not if you work quickly and use 63/37 0.6mm rosin core tin-lead solder with a 30W iron. I never need to apply the iron for more than half a second. I've done this more than a few times, and I realize that it goes against standar

It's not recommended, but I have soldered in replacement cells with a regular 30W iron. It can be as easy as open the pack, identify and replace bad cells, manually balance charge the cells (one at a time), tape the pack back togethe

I just imported a bunch of them to launch on ebay/amazon/etc. Should be similarly inexpensive.

I know the feeling. It's not just modern stuff, I have an old ExtJS app that I dread to update. The best solution I have found is a dev / build environment in a dedicated VM that I can spin up once or twice a year to make update

I'm sorry friend, but 10% is a huge incremental improvement. This could save me hours over a year.

So true. It's really frustrating when UI overhauls are forced. I understand that with all the changes under the hood, they felt that this was the right time, but a tick-tock cycle is more user friendly and UI changes should be rolled

I just updated a 1 day app, it took a couple hours. No Vue.set/this.$set, significant changes to render functions, changes to much of the boilerplate. I was thinking that most of the deprecated behavior could be easily emmulated. The p

That depends on what you consider fine. Modern decelopment is so much more productive, no way I could go back to the jquery days.

New York Times and all the other publishers don't have to participate in this crap. It's shameful that they cede authority over their content so easily in exchange for a vuage promise of more visibility. There are so many better

Solid point. So many vacations require a rental car. Thinking of my last few vacations, ski trip to Colorado, Glacier National Park in Montana, Marco Island in Florida. None of those would be practical with ride sharing and even if they

We need widespread home antibody tests. I had a bad chest cold for a month recently, probably just a cold but I sure wish I knew for sure. If I found that I have antibodies I would try to volunteer to help in the fight and donate plasma. It

KN95 masks are available from China. Those are an excellent choice for the general population and do not affect the supply of N95 masks to medical personnel. More people need to step and and distribute.

OpenWRT does support VLAN tagging, it's Linux. Maybe it's a hardware support issue.

OpenWRT is fantastic when you get used to it. I prefer the CLI but the GUI works well too.

What exactly is the alternative to democracy? Are we suddenly going to become authoritarian? Are you suggesting that we will devolve into anarchy, branch off into warring clans of hunter-gatherer's, substance farmers, and roving gang

Why do people keep saying that panic is bad? Sometimes panic is the appropriate action and is necessary to motivate us to take extreme life saving action.

Going outside and congregating outside are different things. Surely a walk outside is okay as long as we keep our distance from others.

There were delays and suppression of vital news, but overall their response has been far more robust than our own. As for blame of the emergence, one has wonder, were it not for China's open market trade of wild animals, would this vi

In my experience gevent is great, gunicorn not so much. Gevent has a built in HTTP server, it's fantastic. Just take care to avoid CPU bound or blocking code. I use PyMySQL instead of MySQLdb. If speed is a problem then use PyPy. Last

Or 24V or 36V, but alas 12V is the existing standard for legacy reasons so it's the path of least resistance for an overhaul of the PSU spec.
