  • Then next I would examine the redirect and check your stack, is it a 302, 304, etc, is there a service identifying header with the redirect?

    After that I would try to completely change your setup for testing purposes, greatly simplify things removing as many variables as possible, maybe setup an api server with a single route on express or something and see if that can be faithfully served

    If you can’t serve with even a simple setup then you need to go back to the drawing board and try a different option


  • You set the A record to your internal ip address from within your router?

    Nginx configs have a lot of options, you can route differently depending on the source context

    So a couple questions:

    1. Do you only want to access this from your local network? If so setting up a domain name in the broader internet makes no sense, you’re telling the whole world what local ip within your switch/router is your server. Make your own dns or something if you just want an easier way to hit your local resources
    2. do you want to access this from the internet, like when you’re away from home? Then the ip address you add to your a record should be your isp’s public ip address you were assigned, it will not start with 192.168, then you have your modem forward the port to your local system (nginx)

    If you don’t know what you are doing and have a good firewall setup do not make this service public, you will receive tons and tons of attacks just for making a public a record.





  • After thinking about it a bit I actually think this makes sense.

    Imagine a bully on the playground, in a group of other bullies who have all convinced themselves they’re the victims. The bully has a baseball bat in their locker that they use to terrorize smaller children who wear blue hats because that means they’re secretly out to get the bully. The bully heard one time on another playground a kid in a blue hat hit a kid with a baseball bat, just like our bully. Every time a bully beats the hell out of a random kid at recess there are short term exclamations from the all kids asking for the school to take away the weapons, even though they die out quickly, the bully takes offense at the idea of someone taking away his only tool to protect themselves from spooky blue hats kids.

    He stands tall with the other bullies at recess holding little signs, we dare you to take away our baseball bats! Genuinely simultaneously afraid and empowered. They inflict actual threat of violence because they internally have conjured the idea of violence against themselves.

    In this recess analogy, hall monitors would stand with the bullies, having baseball bats themselves and also being afraid of the blue hat kids.

    If one day a blue hat kid brought a baseball bat to protect themselves the hall monitors and teachers all immediately crack down on them and take it away, because obviously it’s not for self defense they’re “clearly” out to get the hall monitors.

    I don’t think ideologically cops would take guns from people who think like them and ally with them, rather from “rebels” and “others” who start a genuine rebellion against a facist regime. Obviously from the perspective of the enforcement of laws against guns the police are the arm of the executive among the people, but they choose when and where to enforce laws all the time.












  • I don’t think the judicial system has been very judicious since it’s become so politicized. With so many right leaning justices and straight up corruption in the courts I don’t respect their opinions anymore.

    Perhaps it would be different for someone right leaning, but it’s my understanding that average people on the right distrust most government by default. The Republican mind and the libertarian mind are often similar.

    All that to say I don’t think this is a valid trigger for introspection, and in fact I don’t think there is a single thing besides brown jesus christ himself coming down and rapturing their opposition that would cause even a second of pause.


  • Another thing to consider with manufacturing is logistics, there are so many things that have to come together to manufacture a single doohicky.

    Buying land near a transit hub is expensive so you try to buy land in a rural area, but then how do you get it shipped to you while maintaining reasonable prices so you can stay competitive? Ground transit is fine as long as petrol prices are low, but most manufacturing is putting together other goods, which largely come from other countries.

    So you… start a mine to get whatever you need? Just grab a pickaxe and start digging I guess, otherwise it doesn’t matter what you make the prices will be 10x china’s because the costs are outrageous.
