Where is it? I feel like I've been there when I was a kid. Voidomatis River?

HAproxy is good at what it does but it's only good at proxying and simple rules. For the most part, it's used as a load balancer and router and doesn't really process the requests itself.

To add something here: HAProxy's ACLs are more powerful than anything nginx, Apache or even Envoy can do. Of course HAProxy is not a web server but "just" a reverse proxy that speaks HTTP (and TCP) but what you can do with its ACLs is often extremely impressive in its simplicity and elegance. A single-line ACL in HAProxy would require loading additional modules in nginx and writing a screenful of configuration directives. Though the average self-hoster will probably never need any of the power HAProxy offers.

In the past 20 years I have professionally used all four of these as web servers and/or reverse proxies and I am pretty confident that HAProxy beats all others when it comes to request processing. Though Envoy might be getting there.

The ID on the phone thing is weird. Like I’m gonna give my phone to a cop when they ask for my ID.

You don't do that. You present the cop a QR code generated on the fly by the ID app when selecting "show ID" (or driver's licence, in our country) that they then scan with their equivalent app or device. You don't physically give them the phone. At least that's the idea.

Like in many countries (traffic or street) cops here barely have a high school education and it's not unusual for them to be too stupid to be able to scan a QR code. So carrying your plastic cards with you is prudent.

In case you didn't know, Münecat recently uploaded a three-hour video debunking evolutionary psychology: https://youtu.be/31e0RcImReY

I figure the overlap between hbomberguy and münecat viewers in the Venn diagram is basically a circle, so that should help if you have an hbomberguy craving.

I believe it was because it was such a weird and dramatic shift in tone from the regular CAD content, which was not all that great to begin with. You probably had to be there (I wasn't).

Hbomberguy did a video on it that explains it well I think: https://youtu.be/TebCHHCw9rY

This is bewildering. Are you really subject to regulations that forbid you from storing and using rain water as you see fit? Because you must buy water from a third party?

Is there a reason behind this other than capitalism?

Wow, how long did it take to grow?

Same thing in a normal distribution, no?

Thank you, that was interesting. I would like to subscribe to your newsletter 🙂

But I am not sure I understand point 2. Are you talking about seeds?

Don't get me started or I will go on about this in extreme nerdy detail from personal experience.

Please do! I am just starting with some gardening and haven't much experience yet.

Interesting to see that I have pretty much the same (apparently wonky) setup with my ZigBee coordinator plugged into my Home Assistant mini-PC (via extension cable) in the basement of my house.

Though I have a better supported adapter (from Slaesh) it is definitely not in the middle of the house. It works fine so far with about 100 devices and it seems the backbone is strong enough so the basement location is not a big problem. Still I wonder if the mesh could be improved by getting a network-enabled adapter and placing it somewhere more central.
