New Zealand was not Kung Fu fighting. As was foretold in prophecy.

The simple answer is yes.
It’s possible to encode or tunnel anything over any protocol.

The next question is why isn’t it done more?

1. http has basically become the defacto internet protocol for all media content. This has resulted in a lot of other protocols from becoming blocked due lack of support or due to firewall rules.
2. efficiency. http (and all the other protocols it runs atop) have become highly optimized for doing what it does. To layer something like http over another protocol, would certainly be possible but it would likely be slower, less responsive and lack a lot of the niceties that make http work as well as it does.

For the above reasons it’s actually more common to see other protocols run on top of http. This is especially common to prevent blocking and censorship by making the traffic look like normal http traffic when it may actually be private messaging apps, file transfers, VPN, etc.

This implies the existence of ranked, competitive saluting…

I like to recommend the episode(s) on John McAfee when people first start Bastards. They’re wild and not nearly as dark/heavy as some episodes can be.

If you want to be able to trim off the ends, I suggest a double fisherman’s instead (aka the double overhand stopper) with both strands (hold them together while you tie and treat them as a single strand).

With either knot, after you trim, you can melt the ends of the elastic cord. It will “mushroom” a bit, which will also prevent the tips from creeping into the knot and coming loose.

A flat overhand bend in the elastic cord is what I recommend: https://www.animatedknots.com/flat-overhand-bend-knot

Justification:
Simple, not bulky, reasonably secure against shaking loose, and relatively easy to untie.

As suggested in another comment, a double figure eight could be used as well. It will be more bulky and a bit less likely to come loose.

Promise?

I think we’re saying the same thing?

You have your end grain slab laid on a table in front of you. From left to right divide cut it into parallel pieces (width of these is up to you 2" or 3" is probably fine). With them all laid on the table on their original pattern, rotate or flip alternating slices. Glue it up.

The bigger the wood the more movement it will have. End grain boards like you describe often have their pieces oriented in opposing directions to manage the warping due to expansion and contraction. Plus the more pieces the more glue jointing holding it together.

To provide more stability, you could cut a series of slices and flip every other one such that the curve of the grain is alternating.

If you’re using Sync there’s an option called “filter user”. Post dot menu / filter / user.

I can only speak to my own experience, but maybe?
Also, I lied about being American and participated in this thread anyways.

When I discovered the truth, I learned an important lesson about betrayal.

As a 58 year old, JK Rowling is, by her own definition, very unlikely to be a woman any longer.

I’d like to hear him deliver a detailed analysis of how sky rocketing food prices has no bearing on Loblaws record setting corporate profits.

Not exactly what you asked for but Joplin files are markdown. The app itself (very cross platform) renders them in a nice format. https://joplinapp.org/

The addAddress call may just be configuring the local side of the VPN. It’s hard to know without looking at the rest of the code.
The general workflow when establishing a VPN connection is:

• open a socket to the destination VPN service (ProtonVPN, or whatever suspect service).
• configure parameters such as DNS, split tunneling, and which networks to route over the VPN (generally everything from your local system, except the VPN connection itself).
• update the local routing so traffic starts flowing over the VPN.

addAddress may just be part of the configuration. A very cursory search suggests that OpenVPN may be being used as the underlying VPN implementation framework (not uncommon).

I was about to say that 787s have electronically dimming windows, not the “slider blinds”, so it couldn’t possibly be a 787.
But also what you said.

You can’t just post something like that and not a source! Citation required!

Lemmy is distributed across different instances. Instances can “federate” with each other, which means they share content and users with each other. “Defederating” means to remove that content sharing with the other instance.
As an example, let’s say that Instance-X contains unregulated hate speech on it. Other instances can remove federation from Instance-X so their community posts no longer get shared to/from them.

That would be a highly specific casual conversation!
