This feels like emulation with extra steps
I took the screen off my old dell laptop and turned it into a mini blade server with built in UPS. It ran for years. I have no doubt the battery was knackered by the end.
The only reason I replaced it with a Mac Mini 2012 was because it didn’t support usb3 and 4K video saturated the usb bandwidth.
Now my 2012 runs Ubuntu server + docker for those interested :)
I feel these sockets may have been a practical choice for power supplies that extend too far up or down. This approach gives the best of both worlds for them to be able to plug in whatever is needed. Why are they in the ceiling above a dart board? No clue…
How does the update function work?
I open the web app from my Home Screen, see a notification for an update in settings. Tap update. Takes me back to main page with notification gone.
What exactly is it updating if it’s a web app?
Initially I was like, big deal - your 12v died, it’s happened to us all. Then I realised the complaint was he couldn’t even get in to the car to roll it back out of the way.
Surely if that was the case there should have been some way to get access to the 12v bay to either jump start or replace the battery? How did the engineers get access?
Maybe an oversight with design?
Sort of? https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps/use-cases/rdp/ - I have no idea how to do it though.
I've had SSH and VNC sessions rendered in web pages with tunnels, but never RDP.
I would prefer to use TailScale (www.tailscale.com) for something like RDP though, much easier to configure / set up and again you're hiding behind their infrastructure.
Cloudflare tunnels is the way to go for small self hosted content. You’re hiding behind their ddos protection and your IP / location remains hidden from end users.
I didn’t think this would be the feature I’d miss the most, but “share as image” for a comment with “include original post” was a fast and convenient way for me to share comments with context to friends.
Is there somewhere I can see my upvoted posts? I miss that feature from Apollo
You could do the VPN / VPS option with a reverse proxy like nginx proxy manager. Or, you could use Cloudflare tunnels. Worth noting that from a privacy perspective you’d be putting a lot of trust in Cloudflare. The same is also true for whoever you pick as your VPS provider
