Yup, I have been in the Ring ecosystem since way before Amazon took them over, and it is kind of hard to part from the useful cameras, so here is for my link archive: [Wayback/Archive] Latest Products/Feature Request Board topics – Ring Community

I wrote about programs and scripts doing IPv4 subnet calculation, but sometimes it is easier to have a table at hand, so here is the one I found at [Wayback/Archive] OccupytheWeb on Twitter: “Network Basics for Hackers: Subnetting, Subnet Masks and CIDR Notation #networks #networkbasics #subnetting #infosec #networks4hackers #cyberwarrior #cyberwarrior #networkbasics #networkbasics subnet”

It was about 2 years ago that Jilles reminded me I had a flight case with gadgets too.
Back when I assembled it in 2018, I had big plans for showing private “cloud” container experimentation and gadget stuff at conferences. Then 2019 kicked in with rectum cancer.
So it was good that he helped me motivating to get it working again, especially as the time around assembling it so much fun and working on it brought back those days.
Here are the pictures:

For quite some times my back-up way to access a Fritz!Box when the VPN itself failed was to SSH into a system behind it and use SSH port forwarding to access the Fritz!Box.
Seems that only works for older models with older firmware versions, but newer models with newer firmware now give a rebinding protection error.
I am not sure why it does this as technically there is no [Wayback/Archive] DNS rebinding – Wikipedia.
Regrettably, I could not find a way around this from the links below.

A few years ago I asked for some help figuring out what to whitelist so that winget can update its sources and install packages.
This is how I found out.

Two interesting posts on fast network routing:
… I also ran into weird DNS slow-downs, which I didn’t fully diagnose. In Wireshark, it looked like my machine sent 2 DNS queries but received only 1 DNS result, and then waited for a timeout.
… Since I last used MikroTik in 2014 the software seems to have barely changed. I wish they finally implemented some table-stakes features like DNS resolution for DHCP hostnames

For my link archive as this was a cool idea, but for many their device didn’t last that long:
[Wayback/Archive] ElectricRCAircraftGuy/eRCaGuy_ComputaPranksta_Support: Public support for my “Computa Pranksta” mouse jiggler device I sell on Amazon and elsewhere.
This device is a mouse jiggler. It keeps your computer awake. It can also be used to have some fun with your friends (please don’t take it too far–it’s meant to be used in good, friendly gest–not for any type of malicious purposes).
Notes:
Links on those USB Mouse Jigglers below, but first some links on the Computa Pranksta:

Het grappige van sommige Tweakers.net artikelen is dat er dan ineens veel tips over een concurrerend product in staat (omdat de laatste over het algemeen op bepaalde vlakke beter is).

TL;DR: for the foreseeable future, avoid USB C hubs with built-in Ethernet as they will bring down your local LAN when no PC is connected to the hub.
[Wayback/Archive] Karoly Negyesi 💉💉💉 Слава Україні! on Twitter: “Apparently some/many/most powered USB C hubs with Ethernet are causing serious problems when not connected to a computer. This is such an amazing interaction of various standards. “
