xmichael0··on GoTTY – Share your terminal as a web application
I am sure there is one as the project looks very well done and comprehensive, but I'm sorry, I don't quite understand the use case for this? Where would one use this instead of SSH or even SSH over a http proxy?

.google eh
xmichael0··on Incident: American B38M near Nassau on Mar 29th 2021, pitch trim issue/failure

xmichael0··on An Introduction to NAT64
Thank you for your comprehensive and thoughtful answer. I agree with everything you said, except for the idea that we are transitioning, we will always live in a hybrid ipv4 ipv6 world (;
xmichael0··on An Introduction to NAT64
NAT64 requires port rewriting.
xmichael0··on An Introduction to NAT64
I see no reason to use NAT64 over NAT. Am I wrong here?
xmichael0··on Intel NUC as a back end for development
Really this article should have been about using a server and the VSCode SSH module. This component is the star of the show https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscod...

xmichael0··on The Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company
Not sure, but albendazole seems over priced still. I bought 6 tablets less than a year ago in Costa Rica for about $5
xmichael0··on DDoS-Guard to forfeit internet space occupied by Parler
Straight up, I believe this is the only comment who understands the situation.
xmichael0··on New Drug Therapy Approvals 2020
Amazing to hear, I've always thought that Medical Science is like Computer Science, stagnant. I'm glad to hear you are doing well now and modern science is advancing!
xmichael0··on Looks vs. Results: My ugly ad got 150% more clicks than a professional design

xmichael0··on Spectre.console – Pretty console apps in .NET
Great looking project. I currently use Miguel de Icaza's with great success https://github.com/migueldeicaza/gui.cs

This project looks like it fits a different niece though and I am excited to use it. Thanks to the creator for making and sharing!

xmichael0··on OpenMPTCProuter
I've looked at Zerotier many times over the years. You are using this as your dedicated VPN to load balance multi WAN connections, is that what you are saying?

xmichael0··on Starlink WiFi Router FCC Approved
How old are you? I remember being a kid 30+ years ago going to the VHS store and picking out some crap and loving every minute of it. It's an experience. I remember the joy of going to a vHS / DVD rental shop with a date etc. Nothing wrong with getting out of the house for a bit and picking something out, it was fun! (;
xmichael0··on Flowtrackd: DDoS Protection with Unidirectional TCP Flow Tracking
That is common with Cloudflare... Never understood why so many tech. praise them when clearly many of their claims are false. You would think that 99% of the internet was under a ddos attack 99% of the time.
xmichael0··on Firefox Picture-in-Picture
Opera has been doing this for years...
xmichael0··on Is WebP really better than JPEG?
Does anyone know of a comparison that looks at the encoding and decoding times / cpu requirements?
xmichael0··on Covid-19: The T Cell Story
So... Does this mean that we can "self" vaccinate by going maskless and running around the city and in and out of grocery stores every few days? I am mostly joking here, but I am also serious, the post implies that we can develop immunity by getting minor exposures over a period of time. I read the article twice and probably need it twice more to fully understand it, but please enlighten me.
