It’s a silly thing, but if it glows orange, and if any of that orange light escapes or is visible from the window, it is not 100% efficient. But this is just pedantic in reality, even cheap heaters will do a good job of converting electricity into heat.
What is the difference between a “suicide drone” and a missile? Both are just guided to run into their target. It’s not like an ICBM wants to return home after dropping the payload.
That is a very valid reason. I could see setting it up to learn more about how IPv6 works. I just wanted to see if I could get any actual advantages with it.
office situation where there are a large number of devices
That would make sense as a place to have it. Having a large number of devices where each having an external IP would be handy. My environment really only needs one or two devices having direct external access.
I mean, I don’t have NAT traversal between my NAS and devices on my lan now, they are routed because they are different VLANs but that would happen anyway.
Do people have problem with ip conflicts? I guess if I wasn’t running DHCP that would be possible.
Right now NAT is my main firewall between most devices and the wider internet, but I do still run pfsense and have firewall rules in place.
Switching over to IPv6 seems like it would be extra work for very little actual benefit.
I know nothing about this so it is purely speculation, but my first thought would be that it simply wouldn’t work.
But from a purely mathematical standpoint, the gps receiver would probably be able to see the satellites just fine, so assuming that worked, it could triangulate its position as the point on earth closest to them (the middle of the globe from their perspective), and then just give them an extremely high altitude.
That said, I know consumer technology (I believe they are using an iPhone) automatically turns off gps if it detects you are flying at a high enough speed, to prevent you from using it to guide a missile.
Kodak was at least TRYING to be ahead of the curve. They saw the writing on the wall before either Blockbuster or Sears did.
It is hard for a business to realize that their core product is going the way of the buggy whip or ice delivery companies, but I do think it can be done.
It was so frustrating to watch too since they did so much for pushing hybrids. They were the face of the “eco car” and they could have pivoted to fully electric and people would have just gone with it.
Instead they pulled a Sears. Sears had the catalog business down and would have destroyed upstarts like Amazon if they wanted to pivot to online sales, instead they stuck their head in the sand and suffocated.
It might have just been CO2 accumulation they were worried about. CO2 is heavier than N2 so it pools at the bottom of places like that and you wouldn’t know until it was too late.
If you don’t put your dares in ISO 8601 format, how will the reader know if you mean May fifth, 2026, or the fifth of May, 2026?
