Unfortunately. I have seen some ISPs DHCP servers assign IPs with no particular subnet(s). Could be a case here as well.


That’d be frustrating, not just for this. I’d probably be looking into a solution like Tailscale to tunnel out. Or just develop a gnarled security rule list full of rich history. :)


I read the current Starlink system has a limitation where if you move outside of your assigned service "cell", you lose service. Guessing this is still the case.


Unfortunately this is partly due to FCC regulations.


Eh, really? It's due to needing ground station visibilty for the consumers as there's no intra satellite routing links, I thought and they didn't want to swamp the contention ratio whilst they were in beta? Why would the FCC be stopping this?


FCC only manages a small portion of the earths surface. They have no say whatsoever in my part of the world.


If the company you use has a presence in their small portion of the Earth's surface, then they probably have some say so.


Why would FCC add such limitations?


Perhaps because there are subsidies based on providing broadband/fiber service to specific areas.


The FCCs mandate is to protect the airwaves from interference. Starlink uses shared bands. if the receivers move, tracking down interference is harder.


this is not really true relative to what OP said. there are fcc regulations for spectral leakage and such, but that's well known and means you can't transmit outside a service area. but that just means you're in another, adjacent service area. it has more to do with the spectral efficiency going down as you move from boresight, so they don't want a capacity loss. fcc has nothing to do with this decision.


What about mobile networks which literally do just that? Or they don't use shared bands?


Surveillance & Monopoly Protection

If people stopped using cellphone service for mobile internet they would loose their immense location and surveillance capabilities (gov).


Do they have authority to impose such limitations? It sounds very overreaching.

What makes more sense is probably Starlink trying to prevent uneven network load.


That's why there's no FSD too, so I hear.


provided you're happy enough to buy multiple dishes, this fixes that.

one account, multiple dishes.


To quote from the Slack engineering report

> This indicated there was likely a problem with the ‘*.slack.com’ wildcard record since we didn’t have a wildcard record in any of the other domains where we had rolled out DNSSEC on

I'm not going to stick my hand in either camp for the sake of this discussion, but dynamic/wildcard DNS records are exactly the type of thing I'd suspect DNSSEC to have trouble with


I, on the other hand, can speak from experience, and I say that where I work we currently have over 100 domains with DNSSEC and a wildcard record, and they all work just fine.


I wasn't implying that wildcard records are something entirely incompatible with DNSSEC, more that certain nameserver implementations could potentially have trouble with them.


Your guess was proven correct, as it was indeed a bug in Route 53 which broke Slack. But you did not write “certain DNSSEC implementations”, you wrote “DNSSEC”, which I interpreted as implying that DNSSEC itself, inherently, had problems with wildcard records. But my experience told me otherwise, hence my comment.


Fair enough


I noticed that too. However there is realtime translation by volunteers, and they seem to do a good job.

Some of the live streams allow you to select an English audio stream.


I guess the idea is if you're studying EE and related fields: "crawl before you can walk"


This is not crawling by any stretch of imagination. It’s low speed digital which is the only thing making it “easy”, other than that it’s worlds apart in complexity from a reasonable educational or DIY project.


This. Some standards bodies (arguably) made a big deal about client certificates some time ago to reliably pin client identities for client->server connections (whether it worked is a different story), and I certainly think having functionality for the reverse (pinning server identities) should exist too.

Doesn't have to be Gemini even, but I think getting buy in from browser vendors after the removal of HPKP is going to be a problem...


Does SourceHut support other change workflows than just email patches or has anyone else integrated such? (i.e a "PR" style module, Gerrit, etc.)


no


How exactly do you test your own GPU "rendering" under macOS?


Essentially by replacing the macOS shader -> machine code compiler with one of your own (or, rather, running it alongside).


And the rest of the Metal. We're directly taking to the macOS kernel driver.


Talk to me when decent laptops with AMD dedicated and/or APU graphics and >1080p IPS displays exist.


Except they already do. Also, AMD announced SmartShift ("shifts power inside your laptop for the optimal performance for a given task") support for Linux a couple of days ago. They're more than usable nowadays.

Probably a popular opinion here, but any display with a higher res than 1440p (1600p if it's a 16:10 display) is a waste on a laptop. I'd rather have a 1080p one over a 4K one, personally.

Interesting, thanks!

I don't disagree that 4k is a little nuts on a ~15" laptop LCD, but it seems until recently you're options for decent >1080p displays on laptops for the most part were a) Macbooks (2880x1800 at 15.4"), and b) 4k PC laptops


It misses your >1080p mark, but the DELL G5 SE is a budget workhorse with a remarkably good screen (once calibrated).

Zen 2 6/8 core, RX5600, and uses AMDs shiftable power budget. Dual SSD slots as well.

It’s a plastic fantastic for sure, but at the $800 I paid 6 months ago it’s been a great machine.


I wasn't opposed to the 220dpi of the older Macbook Pros (2880x1800 @ 15.4),but otherwise this is what I want.
