Driving a Leaf 100km a day does not mean that the battery has a range of 100km or more. It is extremely common to charge whenever you park, whether at work or when stopping at home or any time in between drives. With a charge in the middle of the day, even a car with a max range of 50km could still do 100km in one day.

The point he’s making is not about range, it’s about the longevity and the reliability of the car.

No offense, but saying this almost completely disqualifies you from having this conversation about private messengers.

Ludicrously simple setup, that’s all.

This is not remotely ghetto, this is really well done. Sure the fans are a bit wonky but that is one hell of a machine for the money.

Well done!

Oh I see.

I guess I’ll wait with baited breath for when you’re ready to hold people to that standard. I suppose until then you won’t understand why this is just embarrassing for Musk.

That’s the point of Twitter for users…“haha”.

The people running Twitter should act like professionals. If I was Mr Beast, I sure as hell would not even reply to such a tweet.

You understand that what content creators get paid by the platform is never anywhere near what the platform gets paid by the advertisers…right?

Using completely made up numbers, if Mr Beast is paid $1 by Youtube for every thousand views, YouTube may be getting paid $6 or $7 by advertisers.

Otherwise the monetization would never work.

Musk doesn’t have the funds or the revenue from Twitter to be able to compete with that.

Seriously…what a weird take. High resolution video is simply just nicer to watch, these guys are going a very strange direction with it.

“consumerism”? My dude, it’s pre produced video files. With hardware acceleration it takes barely any real processing power to play back 4k video.

You are not changing anything or making any difference in whether the world is “going to shit”. The Internet bandwidth you’re getting is being artificially choked by your ISP…always.

It feels like you think it’s some kind of moral victory and wanted to take some kind of arbitrary stand against “consumerism” and landed here.

Unless you actually have bandwidth limitations or don’t have a screen capable of displaying the content, lowering to DVD quality is achieving nothing at all.

It is when you’re publicly begging on said platform. The correct thing to do would have been to reach out over DM or even better, reach out to the production team that runs Mr Beast’s channel and begin conversations.

You know, like any other serious company might do.

The only reason he did this publicly is for the attention.

I stopped messing with port forwarding and reverse proxies and fail2ban and all the other stuff a long time ago.

Everything is accessible for login only locally, and then I add Tailscale (alternative would be ZeroTier) on top of it. Boom, done. Everything is seamless, I don’t have any random connection attempts clogging up my logging, and I’ve massively reduced my risk surface. Sure I’m not immune; if the app communicates on the internet, it must be regularly patched, and that I do my best to keep up with.

Just so I understand, you’re using your compose file to handle updating images? How does that work? I’m using some hacked together recursive shell function I found to update all my images at once.

Side note, I really feel for you with the duplicate comments, it happens to me constantly and I know it’s not our fault :(

Tailscale completely negated and desire I’ve ever had to run any kind of proxy or VPN. The setup tool all of 30 seconds to make an account, and then like 15-20 seconds per client. I set it up once several months ago and I completely forgot about it…it’s just quietly working in the background, completely transparent to me.

I’ve gotta say I’ve been using Porkbun for a few years now and I’ve never been caught off guard by insane renewal prices.

Strong suggestion for Tailscale here. It is incredibly easy to use and very easy to set up with multiple users. Opening ports directly to the internet is a thing of the past for me now, ever since I started.
