  • Not a professional networking guy either but here’s my opinion.

    What I would do is use the ISP router as is, open all ports on it (except to itself, hopefully it doesn’t do that…), and put a firewall in between the router and everything else that controls the actual access to everything behind it (in bridge mode between the two network interfaces of the firewall, so you only have the one network).

    Could a potential second router also assign addresses to devices in that globally routable space directly?

    Devices in IPv6 assign addresses themselves via SLAAC, you just need one device advertising the prefix which the ISP router should already do. The firewall should be able to just purely be there for packet filtering. If you need fixed addresses for public facing servers I would just assign them manually to the respective boxes as you likely also need to add them to public DNS manually anyway.










  • This is a great project. The way it handles mixing markup and code is on point. Also, for drawing its CeTZ is so much nicer than TiKZ, the LaTeX equivalent. I made some great graphics with it for a seminar presentation and paper that I couldn’t have done anywhere near as easily with LaTeX. (The presentation slides I made entirely with Typst, the paper had a LaTeX template that I didn’t feel like remaking because it was huge so I just embedded the graphics I made with Typst)









  • Wow, I didn’t know there was so much piracy on Android. At least much more so than on desktop computers (or Windows specifically I guess). Enough to make a dev stop even, not just the usual “oh no a few people are pirating our software that would otherwise not have bought it anyway”. I assumed it would be a relatively small percentage of more experienced users.

    By mid-September, the iA team claimed to have spent five months making 55 updates to its app and privacy policy and was ready to scan its passports and verify its payment accounts.

    Google then requested a CASA Tier 2 assessment. This needed to be done annually, either through an intensive self-directed process or through a corporate partner, like TAC Security or KPMG. By iA’s estimation, the labor and fees to do this would cost “one to two months of revenue” for "a pretty much meaningless scan,” iA suggested in its post.

    This is just absolutely crazy. I feel like Google absolutely had it out for them because why would they make them go through this arduous bullshit process for what seems to be described as a text editor app here.

    But giving up Factorio is a bridge too far.

    Factorio has an ARM port, it runs great on my M2 MacBook. But even if it didn’t, Rosetta works well enough so that x86-only games are playable.
