@ethomson Puzzling. Perhaps people should instead be paid a wage with which they don’t need tips instead.

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@RealJasonGlover @Tillsbury1 @DriveGreen80167 @alex_avoigt @Tesla Not to mention you can actually get it serviced and/or repaired.
The main thing that put me off Teslas is the problem getting time at a Tesla mechanic. Now, perhaps this is no longer an issue, but I haven’t bought a car since 2019, so who knows.

@AdemoyeJohn HTML style tags… I don’t do much front end :D
But last time, years ago, I used pure CSS.

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@bjartnes Ok that’s cool!

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@bjartnes Let’s Encrypt. Unsure if it fits your needs, but they do offer free certs :)

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@bjartnes Yup, so DynDNS as Harald said :) we have it setup on the router to forward current IP. I think it’s via ‘No-ip’ and it’s free.

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@bjartnes Yeah, we are with what was once Canal Digital on their cable network. We have a public IP, which makes this fairly simple to do.

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@bjartnes @dhh Ah didn’t realize they were giving private addresses. Not sure about what Viken Fiber offers. Can’t hurt to call them?

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@bjartnes @dhh Dynamic DNS if the stuff is only shared with trusted people?

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@aklefdal Yup! I still don’t believe it can fit :D

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@aklefdal Having been on the road a lot, I’m not sure how the planned road, cycle path and footpath is going to fit. I hope it does though!

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@einarwh Yeah - the biggest problem when talking with others is saying ‘we have an API for that’, and wanting a concise way to describe what is effectively a non REST API. Naming, terminology and erosion of common language sucks.

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@einarwh ‘REST-like’…
Covers all permutations, omissions and other mistakes nicely. :)

@RobertOsfield @robsmallshire Never had a problem just showing up to a charger and reading the instructions on how to use it. Sometimes you need an app (‘mer’ for example). Sometimes you can use a website. Very very rarely a contactless reader is available…

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@jasonhooper99 @rorysutherland No locking charge port? My cheap Hyundai Ionia locks it in place…

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

Just finished reading Elantris by @BrandSanderson and I can confidently say that this is the best book I have read since Harry Potter captivated me as a young lad. I need more. What a book. Read if you can!

@BreakIntoProg Check your home insurance. Building insurance specifically sometimes has clauses that the roof is to be cleaned yearly in order to be considered maintained. This is from personal experience.

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

Lol 6…

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

So that’s 4(!) emergency alerts sent to our phones in two days to warn about the extreme rain… Feels like it’s already being overused! (Nødvarsler)

[Scott Tasker @IAmScottTasker]

@chrisacue @eivindtraedal Weird timing right!
