Ksp2 was severely botched by Take2… but if you’re into the genre you might want to check out Juno.

In addition you might want to keep an eye out for KSA which is currently in early stages of development. As there’s no official website yet, I try to keep on top of any dev updates and nuggets of information so I can update the lemmy community.

Yes. China’s great firewall mostly handles content filtering and deals with low hanging fruit. Getting around it is fairly simple, and the censorship is mostly focused on stuff that would otherwise be easily accessible by the broader population.

VPN is your obvious choice here. CCP blocks most public VPN providers, so you’d have to roll your own.

You can set up a VPN concentrator somewhere in the world, and you would be able to reach it. As far as I’ve noticed, they don’t block VPN as a whole, and default port should work fine - the reason for this is probably that VPN has many commercial uses that they don’t want to harm.

Source: I run a (work-related) VPN accessible from inside china.

Fuck off, we’re not selling you washed eggs.

For some reason they didn’t reach out to me after I received my doctorate in Geopsychology at Abide University…

I hear the API development for alpha centauri is pretty far behind its peer.

The only reason why US agencies have my fingerprint and biometrics is because of visa and TWIC applications. I still prefer doing things the analog way when entering.

Being a foreigner crossing the border is annoying enough, even if I’m the “right” skin color entering legally. No need to have a shitty AI conclude “daymn he ugly” and deport me on a whim.

I’ve eaten beef all over the world. US beef is nothing special.

This post inspired me to go ask one of my kids this very important question. And yes, he is. It’s a roblox game similar to paper.io

Note: I have not done any research on the topic, but I’m just theorizing based on what I already know, as it’s an interesting mental excersice.

Obviously the biggest problems will be uplink and power. Solar and a battery bank is the obvious choice, but other methods of powers can also work, such as a small generator in a river, etc.

Lead acid batteries are relatively cheap, and building a 12V bank out of car batteries makes sense as there is plenty of off the shelf hardware available to invert or transform 12V into whatever you need. Charging it from solar will be inefficient, but it will work, and there is also plenty of hardware for this (tip: boat-related shops can help you out here)

As for hosting hardware we’re of course dealing with the constraints of load vs power consumption. If you can go for something like a raspberry pi zero, you can run for days off of a single car battery with those cheap 5v cigarette-pkug chargers. If you need something more powerful, you need to scale up power accordingly.

As for uplink, the question is “How much” off grid we’re talking. I will assume that there’s at least GPRS coverage that you can connect to with a 4G modem, even if you don’t get 4G speeds. Plenty of off-the-shelf hardware available here. If not applicable, just substitute with whatever is available, be it CDMA, packet radio, starlink (eww), or anything else.

Foxcon nets to catch jumpers in the US when?

Any way of having this study an existing database (or dump thereof) and build the graph? I have an oracle database that nobody understands, built by someone else, and I thought something like this could help…

Derp, yes. Corrected. VLAN numbers are obviously not related to port numbers in any way.

Yes, but that’s done on the switch. Basically VLAN tags are applied in one of two ways:

Untagged (sometimes called Access) is something you apply on a switch port. For example, if you assign a port to Untagged VLAN 32, anything connected to that port will only be able to see traffic assigned to VLAN 32.

Tagged (sometimesreferred to as Trunk), on the other hand, is for traffic that is already assigned a VLAN tag. For example Tagged 32 means that it will allow traffic that already has a VLAN tag of 32. It is possible to assign multiple VLANs to a Tagged port. Whatever is connected to that port will need to be able to talk to the associated VLAN(s).

In your particular case, the best practice would be to assign two ports (One for each host, obviously) to Untagged 32 (arbitrarily chosen number, any VLAN ID will do, as long as you’re consistent), and all the other ports as Untagged to a different VLAN ID. That way the switch will effectively contain two segments that cannot talk to each other.

As others have said: It will work as you’ve planned it. The subnetting will keep these two PCs separated (If they still need internet, just add a second IP in your router-PC to allow for communication with this subnet).

VLANs aren’t required, but are more relevant when you want to force network segregation based on individual ports. If you really want to, you can add tagged virtual interfaces on these two separated hosts so that the others hosts aren’t able to simply change the address to reach these. The switch should ignore the VLAN tag and pass it through anyway. But again, it’s not really needed, just something you can do if you really want to play with tagged VLAN interfaces

Never would I have thought Lemmy would advocate installing Linux.

Welcome!

It is recommended (but not required) to use a client that lets you block certain instances and communities. It allows for you to curate a more “sane” feed.

Also, we are frequently accused of being nice here on lemmy, so just to even things out a little: Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries. Now, stick around and enjoy your stay, or I shall taunt you a second time.

PS: You should totally install Linux.
