Static IP address and Dynamic DNS can expose your network to attackers on the internet. With Holesail, you expose only the port you choose.

Er, wut? If you're exposing a port, then your public IP is being used, as a port is a subset of an IP interface. So even Holesail uses the public IP in some way...thats how the internet works. Unless they're only making outbound connections, which isn't a new idea at all - Hamachi was doing it 20 years ago.

This sounds like FUD to me - of course your public IP is used, whether static or dynamic. How do they supposedly mitigate this risk?

There's nothing on the home page saying how it works, or how it's different than current solutions.

I'm intrigued to see a new tool in this space, but this one is starting off leaving a bad taste. Even Tailscale admits they use Wireguard, and even have a comparison between Wireguard and Tailscale that's pretty honest (though they focus on what Tailscale adds).

Being open and transparent is a minimum today - anything less and it's not worth the time for a second look.

These magnetic attachments hint at functionalities similar to Apple’s MagSafe,

Or perhaps, Motos concept that was in production 10 years ago?

Last I checked Magsafe did nothing like this, only charging/connecting.

And the guy's mindset is it's flowers, that go in a vase.

What's in her head isn't in the head of the delivery guy (and we have no idea what's in the head of the boyfriend that sent them).

Furthermore, if that's what she thinks, that's all on her. Her thoughts are hers, no one else's. Only she controls what she thinks (like all of us). And before you say "her boyfriend made her think that" :

  1. We have zero evidence of the boyfriend's behaviour from this comic, that would be a strawman.

  2. Regardless of his behaviour, if she didn't like it, she should dump his ass.

I don't know a single woman who thinks like this (probably because I don't keep people like this in my life). If you (the royal you) let other people determine how you think or feel, only you are responsible for permitting that. This is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy step 1.

Also, it's a joke... About how all of us operate from assumptions that we'd be well served to revisit and reconcile with what others actually think .

Ya' all are pretty uptight.

Why wait for fire fighters to smash the window? Grab a rock.

Depeche Mode isn't classic rock though?

Someone manufactures anti-drone shells for shotguns. No idea how they're supposed to work (of if they do), just thought it was interesting.

Wtf are you talking about?

Apparently, old-fashioned spark radios can disrupt comms for consumer drones. There are kits for people who are interested in learning about early radio tech.

I've not verified this myself.

Who writes this garbage?

So much bad writing, "dented cast iron frying pan", umm, cast iron doesn't dent.

Good on the homeowner though. Some Tom and Jerry action there!

My takeaway: jetflix developed a model that worked. Just need to replicate that many times.

Would probably work well for sharing with family /friends.
