<p>I have a couple of thoughts on this blog post.<p>#1. This blog post says that this product is launching in closed beta for <i>"eligible Enterprise customers"</i> only? But I thought cloudflare was moving away from enterprise gated features?<p><pre><code>    Ref: https://blog.cloudflare.com/enterprise-grade-features-for-all/
</code></pre>
#2. Will this feature finally allow me to tunnel my game server traffic through cloudflared to gain ddos protection and other features?<p>Long ago "Cloudflare Spectrum" launched which is exact that feature but was for some reason priced obscenely and limited to enterprise only. Later "Cloudflare/Argo Tunnel" launched and it seems perfectly positioned to take over CF Spectrum's job but instead was, I think, intentionally limited to not allow tunneling UDP traffic as to not cannibalize Spectrum.<p><pre><code>    Ref: https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared/issues/215</code></pre></p>

<p>Def sounds like a bubble to me. In my own bubble, ChatGTP is so well known over the others that people will often slip and refer to other AI services collectively as ChatGTP.<p>e.g. "I put it in chatgtp and..." when they actual asked Gemini.</p>

<p>Well to be fair they only kind of quasi-exist for consumers right now. As far as I can tell Crucial was providing the only consumer accessible lpcamm2 modules on the market right now.<p>Crucial is certainly the only option that comes up looking on amazon or newegg right now. Lenovo has some OEM modules but they are obviously marketed as replacement parts to just their laptops, not sure how the warranty and support for them would be outside a lenovo product.<p>But the Crucial brand was unceremoniously sacrificed by Micron to the AI gods at the beginning of this year. So will these lpcamm2 modules even be available once current stock runs out? The 64gb module is already sitting at $1000 on newegg.<p>Samsung is making lpcamm2 modules but no telling when those will actually hit the market and be accessible.</p>

<p>And actually typing that all out just unlocked a bunch of memories about how many times I've been:<p><pre><code>    1. On a screen share support call with a mac user
    2. Asked them to pull up a webpage
    3. They pull up a super tiny ass browser window to the point I can't really see anything
    4. I ask them to full screen the browser so we can actually read shit
    5. The mac user just straight up panics or acts like like I've spoken an alien language to them.
</code></pre>
The same process happens when I need a mac user to get to an apps settings that on a windows/linux computer would normally be under something like File > Preferences/Settings. They have no idea what I'm talking about or know just barely enough to know they don't remember how to do it and panic.<p>Then I have to go google it and remember that CMD+comma(⌘+,) exists and reveal it to the mac user like it's actual black magic. And then I immediately forget about it until 6 months later when I need to support a mac user again and I repeat the whole cycle again.</p>

<p>Maybe this explains some of the bizarre questions I've gotten from mac designers.<p>The other day I was explaining to one that their designs fixed width looks silly once it got up towards 4k resolutions. But the designers main concern was if people actually used full screen browsers on 4k monitors and if there was any point in thinking about the design at that resolution.<p>There are plenty of times I enjoy have 2 browsers side by side of even 4 browsers in a square, and being able to do that is one of the benefits of having a 4k monitor. But without a doubt the majority of my time is spent with a full size browser window open, and I observe the same from all the other windows/linux users I manage that use a 4k monitor.<p>In service of keeping this post simple, I've ignore system display/ui scaling. But still... the question/assumption from the mac designer completely blew my mind.</p>

<p>I've not much to say on the thermal printer part of this but the extensions they did to markdown are great. They had me double taking for a few seconds thinking they might be real markdown because they make so much sense.<p><pre><code>    [align=center]    Center-align the following text (also left, right)
    [qr=https://...]  Generate and print a QR code

Deprecating align in html was a mistake.</p>

<p>> Its not slow like the on-prem. Jira cloud version is fine.<p>Seems like opposite land to me. Back in the day running Jira Server was the only way to get a snappy Jira instance. When they discontinued Jira Server to force everyone to the cloud it was god awful slow and forced us to abandon not just Jira but our entire Atlassisn stack.</p>

<p>This is closely on my mind because my steamdecks usb-c has started to break/wiggle and only charges now(No video out).<p>I figured surely the usb-c connector is on a small daughter board that would be easy to replace, but actually it seems directly soldiered to the mainboard and I don't have the tools/skills to do that type of repair myself. T_T<p>I hope a future  version of the steamdeck can use something like this compression mount usb-c connector that would be easy to replace even when it's directly on a mainboard. Also they should drop the 2x usb-c unit in there to boot, a full computer like the steamdeck being stuck with a single usb-c connector is just criminal.</p>

<p>I've always loved Reese's since I was a kid. When I moved to another country a decade ago I went looking for Reese's to fill my home sick cravings but they all tasted like trash and I convinced myself they must be old/stale.<p>Come to discover in some recent trips back to the states that the problem was actually Reese's themselves, they all taste like stale garbage now.</p>

<p>Yeah normally the CF blog ranks as one of the best in the world in my book, so a post of lower quality and potentially AI slop really stands out here.<p>That said I think the concept of a full matrix server running all on CF infrastructure/services is an awesome blog post from CF.<p>Honestly I wish CF would simply unpublish/retract this blog post, put another engineer on it to help the PM, and spend another couple of weeks polishing the post/code to republish the same blog post.</p>

<p><p><pre><code>    > You could also DM an offline friend a tracking pixel to reconstruct their activity, a lot of this endpoint security is entirely up to the user.
</code></pre>
Only for as long as they have the steam chat window open and your tracking pixel/message is a recent enough message to be actually loaded. I don't use steam chat enough to remember if they do any of these, but your plan also ignores any possible automatic security/scanning/proxy shenanigans on steams part that will muddy your pixels tracking data or just break it.<p><pre><code>    > That logic is acceptable. 
</code></pre>
I completely disagree. I use invisible status all the time on steam. I very much have an expectation that when set to invisible my friends would not be able to track my online status.</p>

<p>I can find a dozen solutions to sign a PDF on linux without much trouble. Now redacting seems a whole nother story.<p>I've failed to find even a single option on linux that does real PDF redaction like adobe acrobat. Most don't do redaction at all or worse they say they redact but it's actually just black highlighter on black text or some other kind of overlay that leaves the underlying text data intact.</p>

<p>It sounds good in theory but signal updates are beyond excessive, sometimes multiple times a day but almost certainly every few days.<p>Most of the time there is zero explanation for the update. They are just training their users to auto accept updates with no thought about why, which in itself is a security risk.<p>If signal really is pushing these updates for "security" then it must be one of the most insecure apps ever built. I legitimately can't think of another app or program that updates more frequently... Maybe youtube-dl?</p>
