This would not be the configuration the drive-in would be in during operation. This looks like some daytime parking situation, car dealer storage?

There is a strong shadow, daytime so the screen wouldn’t be able to be seen. Many of the cars are parked sideways! Some of the cars are parked facing a wall where they can’t see the screen whatsoever. This is storage

I hope it’s good.

Even if it only works sometimes, there is still a use case with a benefit. I.e. speed throttling on tethering

And yet even with that pitfall there is a valid benefit of using a shared VPN over the hotspot. Specifically making your data look like it’s coming from the phone so it isn’t throttled by the carrier as tethered data. The failure scenario being the data goes slower.

I recognize the problems you list as valid, and yet there is still a beneficial tradeoff decision to be made.

No need to insult me, I both read the GitHub and understand how VPNs work.

There is no point in using a vpn if you don’t care if your data leaks outside the tunnel.

Sharing VPN from a phone over a hotspot, means all of that traffic looks like it’s coming from the phone.

True, but don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

Sharing VPN from a phone over a hotspot, means all of that traffic looks like it’s coming from the phone. Admittedly if the VPN dies, the routing will bypass it. But the benefit here is immense, if you use visible, you have unlimited data from the phone, but very slow data on tethering. Sharing the VPN from the phone, gives you unlimited data on the hotspot. That’s a pretty good trade-off

I use a calyxos device to share VPN, as of a few months ago.

Hotspot & Tethering

• Allow clients to use VPNs

https://calyxos.org/features/list/#network

Perhaps your confusing GOS? If not, can you cite the design decision to disallow this feature? I’d be curious to learn about it

If openwrt can do it, gli-net can do it

I really need to see it in terms of Rhode Islands before I can really understand it

Honestly, for your use case, you should just get a older cell phone. Put lineage OS on it, or calyxos… share your VPN over hotspot, these are the only two ROMs that I’m aware of that allow you to do that. This has the benefit that the VPN traffic looks just like for traffic from the phone, and you don’t have to do any gymnastics to modify the TTL, or the operating system signature of the traffic.

Boom, travel router. Very portable, has a built-in battery etc etc etc etc etc

I like GLI-net, they are great, they have great hardware. If you want to buy it I endorse it. If you’re paranoid flash your own firmware. If you use an end-to-end VPN from your device it doesn’t matter what your mobile router uses. However the killer feature here, I think is better supplied by an older phone running the ROMs I mentioned above. It’s just more portable. And you have a backup phone when you’re traveling

There are many contexts for a calorie deficit, if you are too fat already, a calorie deficit is bringing you back to optimal.

In this context, it’s important to recognize your body is an amazing homeostasis machine, it wants to stay at optimal.

If you don’t eat processed foods, anything that comes in a box. If you eat a very low carb diet, such as carnivore or keto plant based diet. You’re managing your insulin levels to normal, optimal ranges, which allows the entire body to operate its homeostasis magic. And even though you’re in a calorie deficit, you don’t feel hungry. Your body will want to maintain a calorie deficit, till it’s back to normal.

The important key here, is to eat whole foods. Basically anything people ate before 1900, you can eat, and you will feel full with the right time, and you will be in a calorie deficit if you need to lose weight.

The big problem with processed food, sugar foods, the carb rich environment people find themselves in nowadays… These diets tend to spike glucose, maintain highly insulin levels all the time, reduce ghrelin production. Processed food specifically is designed to not satiate, to encourage continual hunger. Doritos are famous for engineering the perfect constant craving, through food science.

If you’re always having elevated insulin levels, your body is always trying to be in an anabolic state, it’s hard to burn fat. Your body only stores fat, all of your energy reserves are in fat. With a few exceptions in the muscles and a tiny amount of glycation in the liver. Since your body cannot meaningfully store sugar, or carbs, only the amount in the bloodstream remains, so you’re always hungry because you’re running out of energy… I believe only 5 g of sugar can be in the bloodstream at any one time. You burn through that pretty quickly, in a hour or two, and hungry again.

In short, this is the food addiction cycle.

If you want to lose 1 lb in a month, or gain 1 lb, you need to consume or burn 3,500 calories. Or 116 calories a day. Or 38 calories per meal… Easy right? … In the US, calorie estimates are allowed to be off by as much as 25%, and that’s just packaged food, forget any restaurant or line cook being exactly precise with portions… So for 2,500 average daily diet, over three meals, the margin of error is 208 calories. Your target is 38 calories. You’re trying to do something within the margin of error of all of your estimates. Calorie counting is a very difficult game to do! The deck is stacked against you. This is why it’s important to allow the homeostasis machinery in your body to handle all of this through satiation. It’s going to do the right thing if you let it

The only cure is to burn out the addiction with more factory.

The two I’ve found for out of the box hosting that accept crypto

GTXgaming : Accept Bitcoin with the automated system, accept XMR with a human ticket, require voluntary KYC on account creation, but none of it verified other then a email check. The game panel services work well, but have a very much built in the 90s vibe to them.

AleForge : Accept a bunch of cryptos with a automated system (btc, xmr, etc), requires voluntary KYC on account creation, but only email verification. The game panel services feel much more modern, but lack some features that GTX has (being ancient has an advantage, like more seamless service upgrades).

These are the only ones I’ve found, after checking every factorio hosting service I could find listed that actually accepted crypto; I’d love to have more options going forward - especially with less friction.

I’m just going to use cast iron to be safe

100% this. You could only print black and white on that printer and you would still be low on cyan.

I think, the fact that people have fruit at home, bananas even, and don’t eat them. Is a sign that mammalian brain is working. A banana is basically sugar, and your body’s like… I’m good on sugar thanks.

Don’t blame the delicious meat patty, wholesome cheese slice, immaculate bacon, and impeachable runny egg for the damage the bun and fries do!

Burying a body with friends isn’t hard, or even uncommon. Getting them to never talk about it … that’s hard

The side with the power button is now the top. There is no ports or io on the bottom.

Just from a game theory perspective, a distributed group of people who are unorganized are unable to get their concerns addressed properly when it comes time to writing tax laws.

The rich and powerful, by virtue of being rich and powerful, have a voice in writing the tax laws. The distributed poor, do not. So it’s much easier to satisfy income goals by taxing the group who has no feedback loop to the politicians

Heat soak. A laptop may be expected to run 24/7. The larger bricks can dissipate the heat. A GaN charger can do it as well, but most of them have a heat soak point where they stop delivering full power
