    Just a couple days ago, I saw this project mentioned. Looks promising but I haven't had the time to try it yet so this isn't an endorsement. https://claudio.uk/posts/audiblez-v4.ht…

    What. No. In Singapore the state-built apartments (HDB flats) are sold not lent to the Singaporeans/permanent residents. The state does not operate as a landlord. Most of the popul…

    GW and TWh are not the same unit. You need to multiply by the hours of effective sun in a year (and applying some reduction factor for the fact that there isn't 24h of sun every da…

    Ah, very interesting! I still have my sandstorm running over these many years (although seldom used, but amazingly it just continues to run/auto-update with no admin work needed). …

    Yeah, learned about it while reading the documentation of Fossil (from the same SQLite people). Their approach certainly has its own merits (and drawbacks). Just wondering how they…

    I had the same experience, trying to self-host my VPN or other evasion solutions only served to get my server and domains banned for all other purposes from inside the GFW. The sym…

    Updating the DNS entries can and should be automated as well. There's different solutions for different DNS setups, but many, including me, do so and don't have to worry every 3 mo…
