DNS Services that Allow Subzones/Subdomains?
  • Cloudflare supports NS records, which is what you’re looking for. Except it probably only lets you create a zone for the top level domain, so you can only delegate to other providers. AWS Route53 will let you create subdomain zones, and will let you create NS records to set up delegation.

    Are hardware security keys worth it? If so, which to pick?
  • In my opinion the biggest problem with hardware keys is what happens when you lose them. You have to either provision the keys yourself, putting the secret on your computer. Or you have to buy backup keys and make sure to register both with all your services. You’ll end up using your phone or password manager as a “backup.” And then that backup becomes your primary 2FA.

  • Looking for a DNS resolver
  • I tried Mullvad's DNS service and found that it messed up sites that rely on geography based DNS routing. For example, I'd get sent to a service's servers in Singapore instead of the US. This caused some noticeable lag.

  • What are good waterproof jackets? (budget ~100-200€)
  • You can buy a jacket that is (mostly) made out of cotton, and then wax it yourself. It’ll probably take you a few hours to do, but it can be done inexpensive. AliExpress has some cheap waxed jackets too.

  • What are good waterproof jackets? (budget ~100-200€)
  • Not direct advice. But I've switched from "technical" waterproof fabrics that use DWR chemicals, to waxed fabrics. I've found that after a year of use, the technical fabrics lose their ability to repel water, and I can't get them back no matter what I do. Waxed fabrics are heavier and don't breathe as well, but you can reapply wax to get them to repel water again.

  • Favorite Daily Driver Immersion Dripper Switch Recipes
  • My grinder is a Jaffee J1 from AliExpress, and I’m currently using it on 30 25 clicks. Oddly I was able to using a finer grind and longer steep time on my French press. Something about the drip seems to extract more from the coffee.

  • Favorite Daily Driver Immersion Dripper Switch Recipes

    This is a follow up to https://lemmy.today/post/5656872

    I recently got a Hario Switch clone and a metal filter. So far I'm liking a recipe inspired by these YouTube shorts:

    • https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rCj4hBDpY6Q
    • https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dAWQPUVDKck

    Recipe:

    1. Start with 20g of grinds, stir to loosen the grinds and make a divot in the center
    2. With the switch closed, add 150g of 90C (195F) water
    3. Give it a quick stir and wait 1 minute
    4. Add another 150g of hot water
    5. Open switch

    What is your daily driver recipe for your Hario Switch?

    It looks like Duck Duck Go is down at the moment. What is your second choice for privacy respecting search?
  • They announced a few months ago that they would partner with Brave to surface Brave search results too. The CEO of Brave is known to be homophobic. People got mad, and Kagi’s response was that they are too small to be picky, and have to focus on search quality.

  • Trump hawks $399 golden sneakers after court-ordered fine
  • I don’t think it’s all money laundering. NFTs sure, but this seems more like the MAGA hats he sold to all of his fans.

    Maybe democrats should take a page out of his book and sell tangible items instead of just asking for donations.

  • Why are keyboards getting smaller?
  • Smaller keyboards:

    • Encourage you to move your hands less. Part of this is allowing your mouse to be closer, especially if you’re right handed.
    • Aesthetically look cleaner and less cluttered
  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • yup. if you're running untrusted apps on your phone, make sure to turn off background refresh AND notifications. apps can run arbitrary code when they receive a push message. usually its so they can provide a better notification for the user, but they can collect data and phone back to the mothership too.

  • Cheap immersion pour over switch & stainless steel filter

    Everyone here talks about the Hario Switch. And I like the oils you get from a French press, so I want a stainless steel filter too. I had some good experiences buying a cheap manual grinder on Ali Express (Jaffee J1 w/ 7 core burr), so I wanted to set out to see if I could do the same with this set up.

    Do you think this will work?
