When configuring #DNAT rules, don't forget to specify the interface you want them to act on.
Definitely when using common ports like 80/443.
I just spent an hour trying to figure out why my web traffic from a vm was no longer working, but everything else was. There is a DNAT rule on the host...
We busted 3 big EV myths on a 13-hour Hari Raya road trip to Kota Bharu #cars #dccharger #dchandal #electricvehicle #ev #evcharger #evroadtrip #featured #gentari #guamusang #hariraya #kelantan #kiaev6 #kotabharu #kualaterengganu #lpt #mythbusting #news #pahang #reviews #shellrecharge #terengganu #tnbelectron #transport
LPT: Want to remove old sticker adhesive from a hard or plastic surface? Use a thick oily substance like peanut butter or mayonnaise to help get it off!
Today I learned that some parallel ports—the humble 25-pin ports also known as #LPT ports—had a surprisingly-non-horrible 2.5MB/s (20Mbps) of bandwidth in ECP mode.
That explains why some external disk drives (Zip, CD, etc) used them. That is indeed enough bandwidth to reasonably read/write those disks.
They were originally used for printers, though, not for bandwidth but for simplicity: with all 7 bits of an ASCII character arriving together, the printer didn't need a buffer.
Just in time for Raya. Gentari turns on two DC charging sites along LPT in Terengganu #ajil #bess #dccharger #ev #evcharger #gentari #gentarigo #lpt #news #perasing #terengganu

LifeProTip #LPT von der taz 😁:
> Ein Nickerchen verändert nicht die Welt, aber den Rest des Tages. Und: Es ist ein emanzipatorischer Akt.
#LPT : When traveling, take antibacterial wipes with you. Don't use that crusty hotel TV remote without cleaning it first.
Auf dem Weg zum #LPT in #Marburg...
Me: Frühstück zuhause einpacken und auf der langen Zugfahrt essen, statt noch früher aufzustehen oder teures Zeug am Hbf in FfM zu kaufen, super Sache!
Also me: Zu den übersehenen Katzenhaaren hat meine (schwarze) Hose nun auch ein Muster aus Toastkrümeln hinzubekommen. 🫠

A reminder that we may all be stuck in some sh!t right now in one way or another, but we can still stand tall and grow from it. Perhaps learn to benefit others from the ordeal as well. It always could be worse.

LPT: stash your drugs in multiple places. That way, when you're unexpectedly out of purse drugs you can take desk drugs.
This message brought to you by me, thinking I'd have to go the day without my brain meds, only to find surprise brain meds in my work desk.
(Also, I need to replenish my purse drugs) #lpt #lifeprotip #takeyourmeds
Further health advisories in general:
Wipe from front to back. No, not everyone knows this! More people are born every day, and no one is born knowing everything. Also people forget.
"V to A = you're okay.
A to V = burns to pee."
This also means during sex, sexual intercourse, penetration, sex toys, recreational stimulation, etc.
Don't reuse butt stuff for muff stuff!
Also: if you experience vaginal dryness, that can increase your risk of thrush, BV, and UTIs. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/vaginal-dryness/

#LPT: Just turn on "Power Saving" mode on your phone and leave it on most/all of the time.
On my Samsung Note 20, there is little effect other than way better battery usage!
I wonder if it's just quenching a bunch of tracking metadata to some corporation.
LPT: If you have a car, quit messing with jumper cables and get a rechargeable jump starter.
It’s that time of year, where it’s bitter cold — 10°F or -12°C tonight — and that weather separates the good car batteries from the old car batteries. Twice today, I was charging my car at a gas station (ironic, right?) and someone couldn’t start their truck. The first guy didn’t have jumper cables. The second guy did, but the other car couldn’t give his dead battery enough power.
Enter me, with my rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack. Clamped it to the battery terminals and their trucks started right up. (Okay, fine. The second guy needed two cranks.) Two quick jump starts, and my battery pack was only down to 70%, and that’s after it sat in the cold car for months.
This advice goes double for EV or hybrid owners. Those cars can *accept* a jump start if the 12-volt battery is low, but they cannot *give* a jump start, because that would overload the inverter and risk frying sensitive and expensive electronics. (Read the owner’s manual.) Having a pack can help others, but also help you! It’s also a giant phone battery if you need it.
And let’s face it. Jumper cables are the ultimate life hack, but they are intimidating. They sit in your trunk until you have an emergency, and then you have to remember how they hook up (to a ground on the dead car, not the negative terminal). One false move and you’re shooting sparks, shorting something, or zapping yourself.
