So I got a new job, and it comes with a free work/personal phone plan
It includes a phone, but I kinda already have one

Oops? :v:
sell it?
I'm glad my company just gives me $50 a month in reimbursement for my phone. Plus my plan is only $40 so I come out ahead. (not really after taxes)
I just realized since I'm still a contractor I can write off a bunch of stuff for my new job. My Pixel XL probably too since I bought that after I started it.
Man, I can't even get my work to comp me for even a fraction of my transportation costs. :frown:
This afternoon I factory defaulted an old Motorola PTP500 5.8GHz wireless point to point radio, which wipes out all the settings, including the license key that tells the radio what country it's being used in and if it's a full 100 Mbps radio or a neutered 25 Mbps version. You can't configure the equipment without that key. Normally, it's not a problem, you just sign into the free Cambium (They bought Motorola's wireless broadband division years ago) website, punch in the MAC address and country codes and it instantly spits out a license key.
However, this time the radio wasn't accepting the key. If you punch in the full key, it complains about not being valid, but I noticed the last few characters were being cut off due to the field having the maximum length set. I then removed the hyphens to get the character count down, but then the form complained about the format of the key being wrong.
The "solution" that I used was to edit the textbox with Chrome's dev tools and change the "maxlength" attribute to something longer to fit the full license key... The form accepted it, the license was applied and I could finally configure the damn thing.

Is it normal commute or are you traveling on their behalf?

It's a normal commute. Problem is, they used to pay for parking, but then don't anymore. They gave everyone a 5% raise instead, but at the time I was making chump change and the 5% bump would pay for maybe a day of parking tops.
There's still apparently parking reimbursement available but it's through a third party and they make you go through so much shit just to get like $50/month tax-free.

I think the issue is on the device's internal webpage not the Motorola side of things.

No takers? Surprising.
In other news: Fucking CloudFlare.
Apparently the default SSL level of "flexible" sends requests to your servers over HTTP, so my HTTPS specific nginx configs were getting ignored completely. This resulted in head-scratching behavior since I'm running two sites off of the same box, each with their own nginx .conf file.
Finally set it to "Full (strict)" and now each site correctly loads via HTTPS and it's actually resolving the page as dictated in each site config. And going to [url]http://domain.com[/url] points you to [url]https://www.domain.com[/url] correctly too.

This is why we [url=https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200170416-What-do-the-SSL-options-mean-]RTFM[/url]. They're pretty open about it, and if you don't have certificates for Full (Strict) and don't want to use LE for whatever reason, you can generate certificates with Cloudflare as the CA, that they'll accept no issue, for nothing at all, and with expiration up to 15 years. They're called Origin Certificates, you can either give them your own CSR or you can just have them generate it all for you. They're pretty good on all of this.

The problem is I had no idea that CloudFlare sets up the SSL settings as "flexible" by default, so I had no idea to even check there. I only was clued into the "flexible" setting by about the 3rd StackOverflow post I found talking about weird HTTP redirects with Nginx and CloudFlare. The entire time I thought I was fucking something up with the nginx configs.
It's a nice setting, but if it can cause odd behavior when it goes out to your web server, IMHO it shouldn't be the default.

Eh, it's there to enable people to have free SSL to the user when they don't have it on their server. It's not crazy, but always go through settings on these kinds of things. CF does a lot of things by default, some good, some less so.
Sooo 1080 Ti prices have dropped a bit (at least for the EVGA one I got, off Amazon) at 12% of savings.
If I can find a 1080 for $499 I'll bite the bullet on that rather than a 1070. Fuck paying $450 for a 1070 when they used to be $350.
I don't want to give up my freesync

Aw man, I thought it was a VR game.
How hilariously ironic would it be if you had to buy a $400-600 VR headset and a $700+ PC in order to play a build a PC simulator

One thing I didn't check was the firmware version, it's possible that it was slightly out of date. The hardware is pretty old, so I'm not even sure if they're still supporting it. I haven't run into the issue until today...
This is the same company that abandoned their mediocre WiMAX product line (PMP320) and never updated the windows utility to factory default the CPE, so the "official" tool only works on XP. I was bored one evening and decompiled the exe, upgraded the c# library used to talk to the WinPcap driver and suddenly it works on Windows 10.
Cambium has been doing very well lately, but man some of the old Motorola / Cambium software was odd.
Anything old Motorola is a bit odd
Theory: Kiwi is small. Miniscule. Absolutely tiny.
Proposal: we stuff Kiwi inside a Mini-ITX case.

Kiwi did the same thing 1 or 2 pages ago, you could have just read this thread :v:
Also, why redirect from example.com to [url]www.example.com[/url], I do the exact opposite because the whole world wide web thing is the most redundant shit in this day and age.

It's not really a meme when they're either the #1 or #2 customer for the company.
"Blockchain Compute" in this case mostly means improved memory management anyways. They haven't had time to properly test and verify it, so they're throwing it out the door as a beta driver.
