Just another voice yelling in the void.
I’ve probably protested for your rights. I’m definitely on at least one list.
I believe firmly that everyone should have a fair shake and as much freedom as they can be afforded - so long as it does not encroach on the freedoms of others.

Look. The last paragraph said what needed to be said. Its apparent its not a review and if you can’t see that… You’re either beyond help or a troll that is succeeding only in making themself look like those inmates from idiocracy. If you feel you need to overanalyze my reaponses to protect your ego… Do what you need to friend; it doesn’t change reality. If you can’t address the obvious flaws in your logic on the original topic you are simply running from the truth.
Both did the job of explaining different functions of the dishwasher and demonstrating, as I mentioned, that expensive stuff did not “clean more better.” To that end he literally had things independantly tested (for the sake of highlighting powders being just as-good.) I’ll go on to point out that he made several comments about pods not using the pre wash.
Again, as mentioned, even with him recommending a product… That does not make him a reviewer. If anything it was a mild advertisement … On a talking head show.
To go back to what spawned this discussion - I wasn’t arguing with you. I simply thought you couldn’t understand what the show was… Or perhaps could not differentiate. The comments (initially) sought to teach.
But, exasperatingly, here we are.
At this point you are nitpicking and being pedantic to attempt to “win” an agurment not being had. Were not even discussing the original video in question. If I wanted to approach this with the same (pedantic) energy: I’d simply focus on it being obvious that anyone with a bit of sense would have noticed that the review seemed to lack… Price, length of stands, lumens… The list goes on. If it were a review it would contain an awful lot more numbers and an awful lot less personal opinion.
Square peg: round hole. I genuinely hope we leave it there.
His dish washing video went to great lenghts to explain how something works and why hot water matters with an additional comment on different products and cost not being everything. Like any continuing series he did dive deeper into various subjects… and he did suggest some things which he used or liked. That doesn’t make it a review. Venn diagram. Its an opinion not a review.
Point in case: was he reviewing kettles in his recent water boiling video? No. But… but he ran a timer!
Short generalized answer: it depends on the strip / strand… But if the strand has a brick at the end that is converting ac - > dc with 2 wires you can typically replace that with a better driver easily. It gets far more specific when a data line is introduced. It won’t fix cheap LEDs outright but it can change how they behave.
Its a talking head show. He’s not a reviewer. Remember Venn diagrams? Go watch a Chris Maher video where hes looking at lumens, voltage, build quality… And then look at this. Its almost as if its completely different content for a different purpose. Within that content they CAN talk about similar things or even the same product while producing a completely different video.
What is more infuriating is that they frequently don’t show the app / applet you are actually looking for until after they load a web result - which results in your muscle memory and just hitting enter working against you.
Something to that effect, yeah. I genuinely get people pointing out or raising the issue in the comments… If for no other reason than to perhaps inform the creator / community of something. But that has a far different energy than this. It almost always feels hostile.
I may never understand why people get pissed at creators focusing on an issue they are passionate about - because that viewers specific issue wasn’t mentioned or focused on. Surely there is content that aligns with what you are seeking without forcing every other creator to monologe out every possible edge case like a US drug advert reading out side effects.
Technicians are baffled how, even with an astounding 90% hallucination rate, this still was more reliable than windows search.

That was a rabbit hole. I never heard the term prior to this. Pretty interesting.
Ah yeah, those were interesting times. (Although there were some historically interesting viruses back in the day for those floppies too)
Fond memories though. Learning basic on a cartridge… Using literal cassettes for storage. That horrifying sound of a 5" floppy drive struggling to read that file you really needed. Good times.
Generally speaking that was probably what most of us would identify as pre internet times - but usenet / BBS / and early internet and prior definitely was more bright eyed and optimistic. Probably because it was more about learning and tech and less about monotizing every square inch of your existence 😂
I doubt they will drop below 1-2 weeks. Any service outage would turn into a ddos when service was restored.
Is this the same trust that would infect a box in under a minute if not behind a router?
The same trust of needing to scan anything you downloaded for script kiddie grade backdoors?

Our software is basically a web app that makes it easier to install and manage supported third-party apps. Wireguard (currently) is only used for remote access, if you don’t need that you don’t have to turn it on.
So my point I was driving at - especially with such a diverse offering of wireguard services which do not charge for (effectively) VPN access to your own infrastructure - I was more interested in why your service would be looking to pay gate it as a “premium” feature.
This would be different if we were talking you hosting all these services on your infrastructure but considering the marketing to homelab - I find it to be an unusual choice… And was curious as to the reason for the decision.
For security, everything runs in an isolated sandbox using docker and that also answers your other question.
Right. Docker does sandboxing. That’s a core feature it provides - I’m just trying to ascertain what precisely your company is actually offering outside of a ui wrapper on these established services.
I mentioned earlier that your branding seems to emphasize security - but all I’m seeing is mention of existing security features inherent in the software being wrapped. Does your team do additional tuning for security? Do they have experience in infrastructure security, hardening systems, or the like? To be clear I just want to better understand the branding and what is being offered.
the same goes for backups, they can be geo-redundant if you use our service, but these are optional feature.
Alright so this is a feature that a homelab user can actually use - backups. Could you expand on how you will be managing this feature / plan to implement it once it is offered?
Alright so I’ll ask a hardball question or two. What precisely are you offering that isn’t just repackaged install scripts and a wireguard wrapper?
What is your / your teams background in software security? The implication of the name and your “branding” are selling a lot - what outside of docker and wireguard are you bringing to the table. On that note: why docker?
Further - you are paywalling remote access… When your platform is utilizing wireguard.
Netbird (one of many examples) doesn’t even do that… What’s the reasoning?
I have more but let’s start there.
While irrelevant, you’d be incorrect. Again. But let’s add some finality here using your own words.
Welcome to this thread and, consequently, what everyone was pointing out to you.
Review, v.
examine or assess (something) formally with the possibility or intention of instituting change if necessary.
Dare I ask if such a formal thing might include numbers, data, and other specific metrics outside of opinions? Perish the thought.
Recommend, v.
to put forward (something) as one’s choice for a wise or proper course of action
It seems between your slip of the tongue and … Actual logic that you’d be definitively… Incorrect.
I’ll extend the olive branch in saying, as mentioned prior (Venn): there are some overlaps so you’d be forgiven for not fully grasping the difference… However the things that define those differences leave no question as to which they are - and ignoring that simply makes you … well… ignorant.
I mentioned before this wasn’t an argument. It still isnt. Its a dunce making a spectacle of his own foolishness. If you wish to continue making such a display I invite you to do so alone. I won’t be party to embarrassing you further.
