You "will try" tomorrow.

Take the word "should" out of your vocabulary for the most part, especially with self-talk. It's often not useful.

Your the elf that wanted to be a dentist!

If you've owned more than 2, those are on you! 🤣

But yea, consumer printers suck.

Is this the same mechanism used by balancing beads used in motorcycle wheels?

Most lotions contain dimethicone, a silicone relative.

They both work by being moisture barriers, preventing moisture loss (for hand lotion).

As someone who struggles with skin issues, I don't even bother with lotions that don't have dimethicone, they're practically useless for me.

Yes, no, sort of.

I mean shampoo is definitely not the same as laundry soap.

And even between shampoos, there are differences (as anyone with skin conditions can attest).

Are products in any one category largely the same? Yes. But there are differences.

Or any business, not even corporate.

You see the same crap in SMB.

Static IP address and Dynamic DNS can expose your network to attackers on the internet. With Holesail, you expose only the port you choose.

Er, wut? If you're exposing a port, then your public IP is being used, as a port is a subset of an IP interface. So even Holesail uses the public IP in some way...thats how the internet works. Unless they're only making outbound connections, which isn't a new idea at all - Hamachi was doing it 20 years ago.

This sounds like FUD to me - of course your public IP is used, whether static or dynamic. How do they supposedly mitigate this risk?

There's nothing on the home page saying how it works, or how it's different than current solutions.

I'm intrigued to see a new tool in this space, but this one is starting off leaving a bad taste. Even Tailscale admits they use Wireguard, and even have a comparison between Wireguard and Tailscale that's pretty honest (though they focus on what Tailscale adds).

Being open and transparent is a minimum today - anything less and it's not worth the time for a second look.

These magnetic attachments hint at functionalities similar to Apple’s MagSafe,

Or perhaps, Motos concept that was in production 10 years ago?

Last I checked Magsafe did nothing like this, only charging/connecting.

Someone manufactures anti-drone shells for shotguns. No idea how they're supposed to work (of if they do), just thought it was interesting.

Wtf are you talking about?

Apparently, old-fashioned spark radios can disrupt comms for consumer drones. There are kits for people who are interested in learning about early radio tech.

I've not verified this myself.
