A project I posted a few years back on HN for an invisible full-lid sticker for MacBooks, so that you could both protect them _and_ keep your stickers once you get a new laptop. I finally found a cost effective manufacturing solution, so se

We started something similar with BreachInsider ( https://breachinsider.com ) to allow businesses (or I guess individuals?) to do this themselves with minimal overhead or resources. The idea being that they sprinkle these ‘users’

This is a retrospective on the original post here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20405957 It got enough attention that it only seemed fair to give this a real chance, and for that, I decided to try out Kickstarter.

3M 1080 is great stuff - I avoided clear vinyls however as i found they lost the metallic look due to them being a little too glossy, even with the matte ones.

So it remains sticky when removed, but I certainly wouldn't expect it to fit quite as snuggly the second time around. Interesting idea though, but my initial reaction would be no, not re-applicable.

I think that might work for certain popular brands - Dell XPSs certainly crossed my mind, as well as the Lenovo Thinkpads. Both are likely to have a vinyl equivalent available that could be used, although I'd want to thoroughly QC how

Looks like a great write up, very thorough. I wrote up a quick guide how to make the mobile setup a little easier with QR codes within the WireGuard mobile apps - when I get the time I’ll submit a pull request to get something included. ht

I have heard people use pihole linked with a VPN to act as a way of minimising tracking whilst on 3G/4G. It acts as a DNS server, so you could tweak your VPN config to run all queries through your pihole instance.

Depends on the country I am in as to whether or not I want to VPN whilst on a mobile connection (whether that is for just having an IP in my home country or don’t fancy my traffic going over their wires). It is primarily for public and&#x2F

I’ve been using the TestFlight beta for a while now - since it was first announced - and it’s been a great experience so far. The recently added option to activate on-demand is great, as it means I can now force VPN for any WiFi and/or

Well timed – I’ve been trying to get back into blogging, as a way of sharing and giving back, as well as improving my personal ‘brand’. I was never really happy with the visual format of my site, which I think put me off writing at times -

Not yet, still gauging interest (and trying to find a reliable source for the vinyl). I’ll be sure to tell HN when that becomes a reality.

I personally really liked how the PoC went – I plan on doing a full write up in the next couple of days, which will outline what I did, start to finish. Here is an example of the sticker/skin and the finish. Excuse the slightly 'o
