  • Mullvad is one of those services that just works and I never worry about whether my server’s connection has fallen over. It’s fairly priced, transparent, and doesn’t abuse my privacy or trust. They never try to lure me into buying more/bigger/better like pretty much every company does now. Much like my water supply, I literally forget that the underlying solution exists because it so reliably does it’s job.

    Feeling the same about Tailscale recently, but this comment is bait to find out if I’m wrong! Not paying yet but considering it.







  • To my surprise, Nanoleaf tech support responded to me within 4 hours, with a full description of the protocol that’s used both by the Desk Dock as well as their RGB strips. The docs mostly confirmed what I had already discovered independently, but there were a couple of other minor features as well (like power and brightness management) that I did not know about, which was helpful.

    Combo of investigating and a foot up from the manufacturer.

    When I’ve done this in the past for game controllers I’ve not received such an emphatic response (other than when I was working for the vendor).

    Did get some via FOI for a few other products though.
