Not to mention mortgage interest.
Ok so it is fully qualified then? I'm just confused because it sounded like you were saying I wasn't using the term correctly in your other comment.
English isn't even the official language of the United States --- we don't have an official language.
Various states have official languages (19 states + DC don't have any official language); of these states, English is indeed official, with a few states also recognizing native languages as official alongside English.
Of course that's beside the point, as even calling this sort of racism "thinly veiled" would be far too charitable.
Hmm, my understanding was that FQDN means that anyone will resolve the domain to e.g. the same IP address? Which is the case here (unless DNS rebinding mitigations or similar are employed) --- but it doesn't resolve to the same physical host in this case since it's a private IP. Wikipedia:
A fully qualified domain name is distinguished by its lack of ambiguity in terms of DNS zone location in the hierarchy of DNS labels: it can be interpreted only in one way.
In my example, I can run nslookup jellyfin.myexample.com 8.8.8.8 and it resolves to what I expect (a local IP address).
But IANA network professional by any means, so maybe I'm misusing the term?
TIL, thanks. I use namecheap and haven't had any problems (mikrorik router).
"This."
If you have your own domain name+control over the DNS entries, a cute trick you can use for Jellyfin is to set up a fully qualified DNS entry to point to your local (private) IP address.
So, you can have jellyfin.example.com point to 192.168.0.100 or similar. Inaccessible to the outside world (assuming you have your servers set up securely, no port forwarding), but local devices can access.
This is useful if you want to play on e.g. Chromecast/Google TV dongle but don't want your traffic going over the Internet.
It's a silly trick to work around the fact that these devices don't always query the local DNS server (e.g., your router), so you need something fully qualified --- but a private IP on a public DNS record works just fine!
But OS X, macOS, and at least one Linux distro are/were UNIX certified.
The network gear I manage is only accessible via VPN, or from a trusted internal network...
...and by the gear I manage, I mean my home network (a router and a few managed switches and access points). If a doofus like me can set it up for my home, I'd think that actual companies would be able to figure it out, too.
...which implies the existence of integer women, real women, complex women, imaginary women, rational & irrational women.
Travel expense reimbursement --- though many companies have a "no receipt required if under $xyz" policy.
Debian (i3 on laptop, headless on homelab).
But apparently my coffee is Arch.
How do we get everyone angry.
This is the problem --- taking away my coffee makes me angry, but I'll be too tired to do anything about it.
Add to that photo editing (as much as GIMP is great...). I would guess DAW and video editing would fall under that category, too...and good luck finding many AAA open source games.
San Francisco's historical fleet
People often complain about San Francisco's public transit --- and to be sure, it's not perfect by any means (multiple separate agencies doesn't help). But the historic streetcars are pretty neat!
They're painted with the livery of various historic streetcars from all over the country (and a few international, I think). Best of all, they run alongside the modern fleet --- same route, same fare.
Sutro Tower lights changed color?
Noticed a few days ago that Sutro Tower's red blinking lights are now white. Just asked them on their website form, but wondered if anyone else knows the story with this.
Personally, I miss the red ones!
Recommendations for first HF rig?
Howdy!
I got my Technician in early 2000s, and last year finally upgraded to Extra. Looking to set up a very basic shack.
I'm looking for an HF setup, with most of my use probably using digital modes, but would like the ability to use voice.
Current transceiver is on loan from girlfriend's dad, a Ten-Tec Scout 555 --- 50W HF unit with separate modules for each band. One limitation of this is that the modules set the mode, so it's LSB on 40m, making e.g. FT8 not possible (without some hacking of code or perhaps hacking the module).
Antenna is end-fed with an off-the-shelf 49:1. Currently only have 20m half-wave, but have just enough room for a 40m half-wave in the attic, which is the ultimate goal.
For digital modes, it looks like there are sort of 3 classes of radio:
- "full digital" where the radio has e.g. a USB port and handles audio, transmit, and frequency set.
- Some computer-control with RS232, but uses computer audio+adapter to transmit.
- No digital, use adapter to transmit. This is what the current setup uses (and it works great!)
I'm leaning towards a conventional transceiver, e.g., something from ICOM, Kenwood, Yaesu, (or others) rather than an SDR unit. I'd like the ability to go up to 50-100W if possible.
I don't have a hard-and-fast budget; would like to keep it <$1000 if possible; mostly just looking at used transceivers. Something like a Kenwood TS-590 looks pretty amazing and very "plug-and-play" (but pushing up against price). Something like a Yaesu FT-920 looks pretty feature-rich too; and even something more affordable like an ICOM 706 or even a 725 is probably more radio than I need. Or just grab a new 7300 and call it a day!
Anyway...clearly, I don't know exactly what I want, but figured I'd ask folks with more experience if they have any wisdom. Thanks!
