The only downside is this doesn’t work if you have IPv6 enabled as UniFi Network still allows those to bypass the VPN.

I ended up making a long list of firewall rules to block specific sites IPv6 ranges, which worked until I hit cloudflare backed sites.

I’m really hoping UniFi start supporting IPv6 WireGuard soon.


Wow, this is unbelievable. I thought UniFi was a premier networking product. Certainly its price would suggest so. Not supporting IPv6 in 2025 is unacceptable.


To be clear, the rest of the OS supports IPv6, just the WireGuard VPN doesn’t. Disappointing all the same.


I was literally looking for a solution for this over the weekend and ended up with a very quirky setup for my Kubernetes Operator.

Now I can rip all that out and use this! Bravo!


Man K8s is my nightmare haha. 100% agree


K8s is a hell of a platform but it is a ... hell of a platform.


I currently use Wipr on macOS and iOS. I’ll give this a spin, however, what are the biggest downsides of the MV3 variant over the original MV2?


The biggest are that not all filtering capabilities are supported in MV3 and that the filter lists are only updated when the extension itself is updated. More details in the uBOL FAQ:

https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-as...


There's extremely limited user customization. You can't tweak filters per site or easily add new filters by selecting elements on the page.

It's unclear if these are technical limitations of MV3.


I am a huge fan of the Commodore 64 and have built my own using modern replacement components and new-old stock with help from other retro computer fans in the office.

But the Commodore 64x and Commodore OS don’t mirror the spirit of 8bit micros. Hardware hacking, direct access to the CPU etc. The Commander X16 is probably the only true “modern” hackable computer in my opinion.

I just hope future generations can experience the power of completely open hardware and as a species we don’t “forget” how computers actually work.


This is correct - but I’d rather my law enforcement had a pre-existing reason to investigate me rather than just stumbling upon something in random hidden searches. Innocent until proven guilty is key here.

I have nothing to hide, but I’m still not giving you access to my photo library.


Whether the data is encrypted or not, they still need a warrant.


Those warrants are secret. We don't even know if they're following the rules they lay out.

In the US, the secret FISA court hasn't turned down a single warrant. Either the government is only coming to them with completely justified cases or they're just a rubber stamp. Either way, there's no oversight so we have no way of knowing.


For now. Once the means are there it's only a matter of time until everything is scanned automatically.

You seem to think that the indexing and searching happens only if there is a reason. Why do you think that? There are all kinds of cases where government agents were found to have abused access to data for reasons that had nothing to do with illegal or immoral behavior by a target.


Irritatingly naive


Because they can.


So they randomly picked a person to search?


They have a jealous ex who is a LEO.


Never been across an international border?


Speaking of which, iOS needs to finally support user accounts, ideally hidden ones as well.


I’d love a project like this, but for Red Alert 2. It works great on my Steam Deck but often stutters on larger battles. A modern, native, Linux port would be amazing.


https://github.com/OpenRA/ra2

Works great on Linux


I have seen this in the past, but I figured it was mostly abandonware given the lack of recent commits. I’ll install it and check it out though, thanks for the suggestion.


There have been plans to bring RA2 to OpenRA for some time now. I second this.

It'd be nice to also see support for Tiberian Sun and the C&C Remastered collection.


Any sources? I’d be keen to see if I can help out, even if only financially.


It was posted below: https://github.com/OpenRA/ra2

It works, but it's not an official release yet. Fwiw I haven't played this myself.


I've found the openRA fork/mod, Romanovs-Vengeance, to be a decent RA2 implementation. There seems to be active development on the project.

This might interest you (RA2 in the webbrowser) https://game.chronodivide.com/


While I couldn’t find a better document: https://www.tomsguide.com/computing/search-engines/google-is... describes how non-Google search engines cannot get new results from Reddit.


Yes, I was wrong. I found this one as well https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/07/non-google-search-en...


This is amazing - I’ve not had a chance to test this yet but if it works as described then this is something I’ve been needing without realising it.

Hopefully you’ll be able to get this on the Mac App Store at some point, I’d gladly pay for this.

Edit: alternatively Homebrew / Nix.


Any guides for that? My blank page feels like a flash bang going off sometimes.


At least it’s still lower on average than renewables at the moment [1]. I’m not sure what the current state of Nuclear Reactor construction is like, but hopefully we get some come online soon.

If no one has started any (other than mainly China? theres one in France) https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/current-and-fu..., why would they suddenly come online.


Hinckley point C is under construction in the uk and on track for 2026 opening

Edit: potentially delayed by some years


Definitely delayed to at least 2031 and probably beyond. It was never really on any track other than for the inevitable delays and budget overruns.


I feel like the internet hype machine for nuclear is like some dead hand machine gone wrong that doesn’t know nuclear is already dead.


It’s stories like these that tell us the United States wants to triple nuclear energy:

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/27/americas-coal-communities-co...

And restarting closed plants is becoming a thing

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/30/michigan-nuclear-plant-final...


>No new U.S. nuclear plants are currently being built.

If it was a good idea, plants would be being built. People with much more expertise than us have crunched the numbers and they can’t make it work. It’s too expensive and that’s why there are no new plants being built. No amount of internet proselytizing will change this.


Both politicians and investors are too short-term in their motivations to use their actions to teach us anything.

It's clear the future is unreliable renewable (solar+wind) and batteries, with some pumped/hydro where it is geologically feasible. Because the renewables are so cheap to build, and the cheap renewables cause over-supply and the batteries are a cheap-steadily-getting-cheaper solution to that.

The tipping point comes when we need to start phasing out the base power for overnight and long bouts of bad weather.

So the pricing game to be made is, can nuclear be built cheap enough to compete with batteries for long-term base power?

Most likely to me is that nuclear will survive in places with worse weather (Nordic countries where the sun goes down for 3 weeks in winter) or poor geography (Japan), and sunnier places (like Texas, or most of the US even) will go full renewable+battery.


Completely missing our emissions goals will change this attitude.


I have read these same stories about "doubling" or "trippling" nuclear for more than 20 years.

In that 20 years there has been ~0 increase in US nuclear power generation, and in the UK it has halved.


Actually nuclear has negative growth at this point. There are a lot of aging plants coming up for either closure or expensive investments needed to keep them going a bit longer.


Yeah, people wanted to greatly reduce CO2 emissions. The renewable crowd said we didn’t need it.

Now we’re way behind in reducing emissions. All these stories about AI needing electricity. Where’s the renewable solution?


Having worked in the industry, "the renewable crowd" were heavily pro nuclear.

Clean coal, clean gas, carbon capture, and the "nothing bad happens when you burn coal I would happily live next to a coal power plant" crowd are the real issue. That's the grift that keeps on grifting.


Culture war. The left is against nuclear so the right wants it.

Of course it never actually goes anywhere because money has no ideology only reality. Just years of studies and bureaucracy.
