Ha, yeah that sucks and I’d absolutely hate it if I were behind a CGNAT. But I believe most ISPs don’t do that. None of mine ever have. Just like how most ISPs provide you with an ipv6 address range, but not all. Fact is that crappy ISPs can screw up your network no matter what ip spec you’re using.
And I’ve never heard of a business network being behind an ISP controlled CGNAT. A NAT you control can be nice.
Idk man, NAT makes a lot of sense once you get used to it. And it’s pretty cozy with its firewall features. And somewhat human readable ipv4 addresses are nice.
A reverse proxy from somewhere like Cloudflare would allow you to host without any router config. Plus, it’d give a little more protection against bots, but it’s not going to block 100% of them.
B2 does charge for API calls: https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/transaction-pricing
Though, it’s not so bad and they give you 2.5k free calls of each paid tier per day.
I really like duplicacy. It’s just a single executable you add to your path, then configure it to back up to basically any remote you want. I don’t even bother to run it in a container since it doesn’t have dependencies. Encrypted, compressed, deduplicated, incremental backups. The algorithm is pretty slick too. It can back up multiple machines to the same repository, and it’ll dedupe across them without any locks required.
Duplicacy CLI is free, and there’s a front-end for a reasonable fee. I think $50 for the first year, then $10 for every subsequent year.
For storage, you can just go with whatever is cheapest/easiest. I use a gdrive I’m paying for regardless for effectively free storage. But if I didn’t have that, Hetzner seems very appealing. I think it’s $4/mo for 1TB? Very reasonable, and you wouldn’t need to worry about api calls or chunk size / file count like you would with S3/B2/StorJ.
That’s “C:\\Users” to you
This definitely reads like you’re saying teens are ignoring planetary extinction and just letting it happen, but I think you intended the opposite lmao
CLI and Quadlet? /s but seriously, that’s what I use lol
But, for all we know, those 255 cars had 980k miles each and the rest had 0. Or they all had 0 miles and caught fire right off the factory line while the rest of the batteries never died.
Put more realistically, it could be that almost no cars needed a battery replacement until they hit 200k miles or 15 years old or whatever. If that were the case, it’s a pretty good number. But they didn’t provide enough data to know if that’s the case, or if all of their cars are 2 years old, lightly driven, and they’ve already had 255 failures. I could see either scenario being true.
Lmao, this 10000%. Also, this article is a travesty of reporting and misleading at best. My favorite part is:
In another study across 15,000 cars — which had collectively clocked up 250 million miles — just 1.5% had needed a battery replacement for any reason, so the share that needed one due to degradation was probably even lower.
Two things are wrong with this:
I like EVs and believe they are the future, but this is garbage and probably written by ChatGPT — or — at least — it reads that way — and has about the same level of accuracy that I’d expect from an LLM.
Lots of people live in apartments where charging is much more difficult. Hopefully some day we see lots of slow chargers available at apartment complexes. It’s a little chicken-and-egg, but I think we’re moving in the right direction.
I like that none of my local devices are externally addressable unless an outgoing connection has been established. You can (and should) achieve the same thing with ipv6, but then it’s essentially just maintaining a NAT table without the translation piece. I think that makes sense in both protocols.
