  • Not the point. I'm bringing up the geth because they also communicate data over sound.

  • When I said I wanted to live in Mass Effect's universe, I meant faster-than-light travel and sexy blue aliens, not the rise of the fucking geth.

  • which softwares can I self host without public IP?

  • As long as you're not behind CGNAT, you can use a dynamic DNS provider (like duckdns.org) and its web API to keep a record pointed at your IP. If you're behind CGNAT, Tailscale also has a service (Tailscale Funnel) that can expose an internal service to the internet.

    You could also pay for a small VPS with a static IP, and set up a Wireguard tunnel to your home server and an HTTPS proxy to forward traffic through the tunnel.

    Also, just in general, use Tailscale. It's serious black magic fuckery on the firewall.

  • It's a method definition. C#'s standard formatting puts the left bracket brace of the method body on a new line. It's equivalent to:

  • Microsoft gives up on users experiencing problems updating their Windows 11 machines. Now recommends a "manual correction"

    Jump

  • There's a massive difference between the average Windows user and the average PHP developer. It's a false equivalence.

    The regular computer user who just needs their apps to run won't likely make the effort to enter an entirely new ecosystem as long as those apps run. Even with the most user-friendly distros, the barrier of entry is still high. And when their apps break? They'll reinstall Windows or pay someone else to fix it.

    I love shitting on Microsoft as much as the next penguin, but they're not idiots. Even if some of their decisions are questionable, Windows is still a major part of their business, and they won't just let it degrade to a point where Linux converts are a significant threat to their profit.

  • Not useless, but it can go bad much quicker. A few years ago I lost a rotary hoe because the engine had been damaged and the carburetor had gotten clogged. The fuel was less than a year old, but closer in color to cooking oil.

    If gasoline sits in open air or a non-sealed container for a long time, its lighter fractions will eventually evaporate. The heavier fractions can cause blockages and misfires. It can still be used, but you have to dilute it with fresh gasoline. If it happens while inside an engine, the carburetor should be rinsed with fresh gasoline to remove clogs.

  • Some, but the output drops significantly. Solar panels like direct sunlight. Even a thin cloud layer can reduce the output just by both blocking and diffusing sunlight.

    (The graphs are just for illustration, I have no context for them)

    A car-sized EV's convenience is wasteful when energy is scarce and other options are available.

  • Zombie flicks are not exactly known for their strict adherence to realism. Residential power would likely be the first to go, if only to reserve generator capacity and fuel for military, medical, and government facilities, and rich assholes' mansions.

    Maintaining the electric grid takes an incredible amount of work and the tight cooperation of all of its facilities. If one or several large generator were to shut down, it might cause a cascading collapse. Executing a black start is a massive challenge at the best of times, and probably impossible in a post-collapse society.

  • Clouds.

    Without the power grid to back them up, solar panels are only as reliable as the weather. A week of overcast skies will drain everything you have in your batteries. No output during the night either. There's also the problem of theft, vandalism, natural wear, and the difficulty of finding replacement parts.

    If you have solar energy and a way to store it, it should be used for more vital applications, like lights, cooking, and refrigeration.
