Ahhh, gotcha… yeah that type of retirement plan is indeed a scam!

Can you clarify how a retirement plan is a scam?

I think they would be more popular in the US if they worked as quickly here. I have one, but it takes about 4 minutes to heat 2 cups to boiling. It’s still worth it to me, but it’s not much faster than the stovetop for us. There’s something about the electric service in the UK that allows electric kettles to heat much faster there.

No true fan is bladeless.

There is no test you must pass in order to be called a fan, so Fandom is just something you decide you are. It’s just the way it is.

Maybe you could start a “True DC comics fan” certification exam, and then you can create a private community where only true certified DC comics fans are allowed to join. Then you can be assured that only real fans can answer your questions.

Are you saying that aesthetic should be called something different because anybody can achieve it regardless of wealth? Why does it matter what it’s called?

As I dug into this, I found that it is in fact trivial to change the Unraid UI ports. There’s a setting for it. I can only assume that since Unraid attracts a LOT of novices, bad advice gets passed around and taken as gospel. So, I changed Unraid’s ports, set my reverse proxy to listen on 80/443, updated the NAT on my router, and added the relevant host overrides to the DNS Resolver. Hairpin eliminated. Thanks again!

Totally fair… I appreciate you engaging with me, your perspective is appreciated! I won’t defend Unraid’s choice when it comes to the UI ports, but I will simply say that there are things that are really nice about Unraid from a usability standpoint.

Thanks again for your thoughts!

The challenge here is that the host is Unraid, which publishes its own interface on 80/443. My reverse proxy is of course handling all requests for my sites, but that is ALSO running on a container, and must be listening on something other than 80/443 when using host or bridge networking.

So, if I’m following along correctly, I would need to put my reverse proxy on a different host (bare metal or VM) in order for it to listen on 80/443.

I super appreciate where you’re coming from on this. Unless I’m mistaken, NAT port forwarding makes this not quite so clean. If my (internally hosted) site is published on ports other than 80/443, is there any way to route them internally without needing to include the port in the request?

If not, then I either have to include the port in my request when I’m inside the LAN, or I need to set up a macvlan in my docker network to facilitate a LAN IP and standard ports.

Do I have that right?

Two weeks is an exaggeration… it’s roughly a 40 hour drive. I find 10 hour driving days to be quite reasonable, so 4 days.

But, your point is valid… big country, different places will have different danger levels. Within my own city, there are areas I would feel OK leaving the front door unlocked, and other areas where I absolutely would not.

This game is not fun. It’s not at all clear how the words relate, to the point where I got a top 10 word in the first 10 guesses, and it still took over 100 guesses to find the keyword.

I found it to be an unrewarding waste of time.
