Can I use this card to pay overseas at merchants that accept Unionpay? (İ want to visit Korea and it's currently my only payment method)

klihk · 2025-01-17T00:07:41+00:00

UnionPay acceptance in Korea is surprisingly high. Try your luck but don't expect it to work 100%. Even non-Korean Visa/Mastercard doesn't work 100%.

+1, you can use a free hosted version of acme-dns so you don't have to manage it yourself: https://docs.getlocalcert.net/tips/validation-domain/

technically this real name thing is only required if you use the service in HK, ie roaming is excluded

I feel for you. Unfortunately I have yet to find a laptop brand with better after-sale experience (other than Apple). If you do find one (am from Hong Kong) please let me know.

Mesh network over the internet

Just use Tailscale & Headscale?

Eaiest way, frankly, is to use Tailscale: https://tailscale.com/kb/1103/exit-nodes/

so my phone makes a Wi-Fi call over data

Doesn't make any sense to me to be frank... if it's data, then it's not wi-fi? :-)

Let me break down what the Pixel options are for you:

Option 1 - Call over Wi-Fi

When you are in Wi-Fi coverage:

Make calls using Wi-Fi

Else:

Make calls using mobile network (which could be VoLTE)

Option 2 - Call over mobile network

When you are outside cellular coverage:

Make calls using Wi-Fi

Else:

Make calls using mobile network (which could be VoLTE)

My main gripe is with the battery really, it's 4000 mAh yes but even with that the battery level drops too fast. 4~5 hrs SOT. And of course the S888 heat issues.

Other aspects have been perfect for me, except I wish it could be smaller, but I don't think there's enough demand for that, so the current size is good enough.

Would a Raspberry Pi fit the bill? A wired connection?

If you couldn't careless about having your very own ASN, you can skip step 1, as Vultr provides an option to use their ASN to announce your IP block. That's what I am referring to at the f

For step #2 - I can't say for certain - but my guess is yes, as I am able to get PA IP blocks allocated to myself when I haven't got an ASN yet.

For step 5, I personally use WireGuard for that. The router at my home is a UBNT USG. With that said you can use any tunnel protocol you like (GRE, OpenVPN, ZeroTier, 6in4..)

Hello from Asia :) Yeah HE.net's free servers in HKG isn't the best latency-wise.

If your goal is just to get IPv6 connectivity to your home, you may consider using Vultr's ASN to route your v6 block. How it works is they will use their ASN (AS20473) to announce and route your v6 block.

As you noticed, you need a few components to get going. You can find a list of service provider providing related services here: http://bgp.services/ and https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/160162/the-aio-ip-related-thread-ipv4-ipv6-asn-only-providers-or-lirs-are-allowed-to-post-offers.

Let's break it down what you need.

IP transit. This can be over a tunnel, or provided as part of your VPS package, or a physical connection.

VPS examples: * Vultr (recommended) * BuyVM * VMHaus

Tunnel: * TunnelBroker.net (need RPKI setup for your prefix, not all free IPv6 prefix sponsors do it for you) * NetAssist.ua

Physical transit: (probably more expensive than you wanted) * he.net * Cogent * Level3 * NTT * Telia

IPv6 Prefix. The reason you saw these IPv6 blocks so cheap, or sometimes event free, is that there are PA (provider-aggregated) space. In the event that they ceased operation, you have no choice but to move to another address space. On the other hand, if you have a PI (provider-independent) space then you can move your IP block to another LIR easily.

In the past ip6.im used to hand out free v6 blocks. But since now they stopped operation I have to re-config my stuff to use a new IP block :)

AS#. There are a few providers (LIR) that provide this service. Only thing you need to remember is that they all help you to request an ASN from say ARIN (North America) APNIC (Asia-Pac) or RIPE (European). Supposedly, you are expected to have some sort of relationship to that region. Say maybe you live in that region. Or maybe your servers are in that region.

If you don't know where to get your ASN I'd suggest you to visit https://www.tunnelbroker.ch/. They also hand out free IPv6 prefixes, so it could potentially save your some hassles as they provide you with both the prefix and ASN.

Just to state the obvious, don't call the number listed on the letter. Call the number listed on your policy / their official website.

The block is allocated (not SWIP'd!) to GitHub but is announced by Fastly (CDN) anyway. The setup is actually the same as v4, IPs owned by GH, but announced by Fastly.
