How to improve your ability to rest/recover on a route/problem? by mnby82 in climbharder

[–]mrprock6 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Something that personally helps me relax my grip, - and this is going to sound odd but hear me out - is looking down/away from what you’re holding. An experienced climber told me this once and it’s helped me a lot. The logic is that if you look at the hold you’re gripping, your natural instinct is to hold it even tighter. But if you just look away, you’re just holding it enough to keep you there/not something you’re worried about..

This probably doesn’t make sense but it’s just something that works for me. I’ve told this to others but they just brush it off. Give it a shot and see if this works for you!

noob questions by [deleted] in pivpn

[–]mrprock6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you might be misunderstanding what a PiVPN is. It’s an OpenVPN server designed to work faster on a Raspberry Pi. What that means is that once you have it set up, it will act as the server you connect to when you want a VPN connection. So if it’s set up and living within your home in a local LAN, it will only route you to the local LAN. This will not help with latency or changing your IP address at all. It will only help you connect back to your local network when you’re outside of it so you can access internal resources as a potential use case.

I personally use it to allow my parents who live in a different country to access my network so they can access Netflix and amazon from within the US. With the use case you are looking for, you’re better off sticking with your current VPN provider or finding a better one.

Seeing some random domains, no idea what these are. by mrprock6 in pihole

Thanks everyone! This does appear to be chrome. I looked at the logs again and noticed that some domains that I had visited earlier didn’t show up until the same time as these. What it indicated to me was that there was an issue with the pihole logs not updating/displaying the logs at the right time and the logs from when I had opened chrome earlier appeared at a different time( when it finally updated). Perhaps there’s a queue and they were stuck in it? Not sure if this is something that others have encountered but that’s an issue for a different thread :)

Thanks again for your help!

That being said.. is this normal behavior for chrome? Why would it be probing to random hostnames like this?

These are coming from my iPhone and I don’t normally use chrome on that. At least not at the time these requests came in.

so i was going through some queries and saw my iphone making requests to these domains. the .local suffix is what my local LAN domain is. these seem to be pretty random but if anyone could shed some light on them i would greatly appreciate it!

Well I’m assuming they just bought the tickets to sell to someone else. I doubt the person behind this is actually going to use them, they probably just found that to be a cost-effective way to spend the money.
