They’re both targeted towards commercial or government business, which is unfortunate from an individual subscriber perspective. I would love to see a euro competitor to Starlink and Kuiper, so I can unplug my Starlink.

Iris2 looks like a traditional Euro project with a dozen companies from different countries involved, to make sure the funding isn’t concentrated in one country. SpaceX has the advantage of improved integration in comparison.

Frankly, better one of his properties than Cambridge University.

I’m a fan of the Miele canisters. I’ve not come across a Miele appliance that’s not fantastic. I’m not sure I trust the battery vacuums, but then, that opinion isn’t limited to just Miele. Bags are better than bag less, unless you’ve pets and piles of fur.

Well yes, it is one hop, because you’ve got the router doing TLS termination. Inside your network you point to the server that has the TLS certs. Outside of the network you do port forwarding, or use a tunnel with cloudflare agents.

Why is the router involved at all? It’s all local traffic. The external traffic comes through the cloud flare tunnel, right? Maybe I’m not understanding the architecture you’ve got.

It’s possible but it’s an extra pain in the butt.

Internally, have you tried pointing the DNS directly to the ngnix server, not the router? There’s no reason to have that extra hop (I don’t think).

If you are establishing a TLS connection to a server, the server will need a certificate. It sounds like you’re trying to have two instances of a reverse proxy - one on the server, and one on the router. It may be my ignorance of the particulars, but my immediate thought is that you should select one point in the network to do reverse proxying.

Irn-Bru, made by AG Barr. Scotland voted for Remain if memory serves.

Why the heck are they storing this data for 20 years anyways?

Tesla’s “build my car” in some regions at least assumes you want to see the price after theoretical fuel savings. Which, of course, is a savings dramatically in their favour. Might be a factor in the indebtedness.

What brand are those power strips? Last time I went shopping for power strips, they were all the rage and I could hardly find one WITHOUT that feature. Today, several years later, I can’t find any. Except, perhaps, some Chinese ones without safety approvals. I need one for my tv.
