Ho, ho, ho, Santa is in town. And he’s brought a gift with him.

Here’s a shiny new package for you to unwrap, containing the first beta version of the upcoming OpenTTD 15 release.

It comes faster, with road waypoints, fewer passwords, better scenario editor, and hopefully with a lot less bugs. To be a bit less vague, here are some of the highlights:

  • Improved picker windows for stations/waypoints/objects/and more. Oh, and that does include road waypoints.
  • Better perfomance in various places, including faster path signals that are now green by default.
  • Password-less network authentication using keys.
  • Several improvements for NewGRFs regarding cargo support.
  • Better scenario editor with a town data importer and manual house placement.
  • A large tree fully hung with ornamental bugfixes.
  • Sadly though, not everbody was good this year. The old NPF pathfinder was finally retired, after YAPF being the superior default for many, many years now.

There’s a lot of bugs left for you to find, though, guaranteed. Enjoy the beta, test all the things and report anything you find amiss, to make OpenTTD 15 the best OpenTTD 15 ever.

No indication of it, other than them concluding the story now. On the other hand they resolved the bot crisis that was plaguing the game a while back, though no major updates other than the regular seasonal updates (such as Smissmas right now).

There is the passwd LDAP backend, not sure if it works for full auth though.

If you liked the old Rock Raiders game, check out Manic Miners. It is a free remake in a modern engine.

I'm aware that this isn't how DNS works, but I'd imagine it is possible to have a DNS server that when it receives a query from the internet looks at the requested domain and translates it to an internal domain and in turn query that one, returning the result without revealing the internal domain. Something like a ALIAS virtual record provided by some services (but wont work against a internal DNS).

As for Traefik acting as a reverse proxy for internal network addresses, yeah that's the way it works. However in this case I have several instances of Traefik running on a subset of IP-addresses on a public subnet. So essentially we want to loadbalance several Traefik loadbalancers using DNS.

 

So I've got a Consul cluster running for service discovery on a set of servers, some of which have public IP addresses. On some of these nodes I want to run Traefik (dynamically registered), which are registered on tfk.service.consul which holds a number of A and AAAA records. I want my address tfk.example.com to point at those A-records without revealing the consul address.

How would I do this?

Example:

Some application maps internal A-records to public A-records.

public             | internal               / xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
tfk.example.com -- | -- tfk.service.consul -- yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
                   |                        \ zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
Expected result:

Public DNS resolvers never see the consul query.

public           / xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
tfk.example.com -- yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
                 \ zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz

I know I could use consul-template for this purpose by rendering config files to bind or similar, but I was wondering if there was some way to do this via DNS like some kind of bridge application.

Jag tänker börja måla en svensk flaga från 280, 74 och ner till höger ifall någon vill hjälpa till.

Is it really a problem that they want to stay faithful to the original game? You say it yourself that FIRS is available as an option for people who want something more advanced to work with, along with all the other NewGRFs.

Is it possible to just run your own SIP-trunk? We're not intending on sending or receiving calls from external numbers outside of our little network.

What do you mean by "a block of external phone numbers?" We'd like to simply have our own internal numbers ideally, nothing to connect to the regular phone network.

You might want to read this https://web.archive.org/web/20230921232415/https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2023/11/general-mark-milley-trump-coup/675375/

During the George Floyd protests in early June 2020, Milley, wearing combat fatigues, followed Trump out of the White House to Lafayette Square, which had just been cleared of demonstrators by force. Milley realized too late that Trump, who continued across the street to pose for a now-infamous photo while standing in front of a vandalized church, was manipulating him into a visual endorsement of his martial approach to the demonstrations. Though Milley left the entourage before it reached the church, the damage was significant. “We’re getting the fuck out of here,” Milley said to his security chief. “I’m fucking done with this shit.” Esper would later say that he and Milley had been duped.

For Milley, Lafayette Square was an agonizing episode; he described it later as a “road-to-Damascus moment.” The week afterward, in a commencement address to the National Defense University, he apologized to the armed forces and the country. “I should not have been there,” he said. “My presence in that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics.” His apology earned him the permanent enmity of Trump, who told him that apologies are a sign of weakness.

Less that, more just going over to the side to let faster vehicles pass and then continuing on. It is just common courtesy to everyone else driving faster vehicles, and is at least something taught to do in Swedish driving schools.
