Are U.S. Utilities Trying to Delay Easy-to-Use Solar 'Balcony' Panels?

Plug-in (or "balcony") solar panels can also be hung out a window or be set up in a backyard, reports NPR. They channel energy from the sun straight into a home's electrical outlet, generating enough electricity to power a refrigerator or microwave while "displacing electricity that otherwise would come in from the grid..."

Early tests suggest people may pass gas about 32 times a day—much higher than previous estimates. The device gives scientists a new way to track gut microbial activity in everyday life.

Доступ к домашнему серверу без белого IP: reverse SSH tunnel через autossh + Xray

Иногда нужно получить SSH-доступ к домашнему серверу (ноутбуку или мини-серверу на Ubuntu), который находится за NAT/CGNAT провайдера. Публичный IPv4 отсутствует, а использовать VPN или облачные туннели (ngrok, Cloudflare Tunnel и т.п.) не хочется. Один из простых способов — обратный SSH-туннель с помощью autossh + проксирование через уже существующий Xray-клиент (VLESS + Reality), который и так работает для выхода в интернет.
