For offline access, you just need to configure that once with the CIDR of your local network(s), and then the next time you're offline the server will allow auth-less use: you'll still be you, but the server itself won't attempt to authenticate you through the internet.

Settings -> <server name> -> Network -> Show Advanced -> List of IP addresses and networks that are allowed without auth

You can also toggle off some of the extra crap they are pushing:

Settings -> <your username> -> Online Media Sources

    Small (400B, 11 keys, 3 layers)
    Medium (13KB, 300+ key, 6 layers)
    Large (635KB, 10000+ key, 6 layers)
I would be so happy to work somewhere where a 0.000635 GB json file is "large".

> FFF #176 - Belts optimization

The last bit of this post mentions UDP packets not making it through ISPs if their checksum is 0x0000 or 0xFFFF...what is THAT all about? This would have been in February of 2017.

> If you remember from the previous FFF, our map downloader was having some extremely rare problems with some mysterious packets that would always get filtered over the Internet. We already had a fix for it, but I was curious what was going on. Thanks to the investigative power of the Factorio community, we found out that all those mysterious packets, before NAT, had a checksum of 0xFFFF. Admalledd from the forum sent some hand-crafted packets through his Internet connection and surprise, all packets would go through, except those with a checksum of 0xFFFF or 0x0000. At this point I would just assume this ISP(and some other few ISPs around the world) have some faulty hardware or software that do not handle these special cases of UDP checksums.

I would love to exchange browser state with my coworkers and act as them for a few hours. I think I could really clean up our ticketing system if I was logged in as someone who could outright delete tickets instead of merely marking them as closed.

You just blew my mind. Thank you!

I can't believe the things I find out from random HN comments.

Thanks for this, I have problems finding good developer podcasts, and at a quick glance of title + count, this looks promising.

Also...the podcast is more than eight years old!

There are only five Lagrange points, so L-6 and above are not Lagrange points. :-)
