For an RRP of £3,259.99?

Compare that to the base 512GB, 16GB memory macbook air @ £1099.

The next comparable X1 Carbon I can find is: https://www.lenovo.com/gb/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx1/t...

RRP: £1,900.00 with this crappy display: 14" WUXGA (1920 x 1200), IPS, Anti-Glare, Non-Touch, 100%sRGB, 400 nits, 60 Hz

But then you'd have to have a plasticky thinkpad with half the screen resolution...

I moved my site from Jekyll to Zola after not really fancying Hugo. Have absolutely no regrets.

Using Zola's GitHub actions to test/build and deploy to GitHub pages too.

Unless I'm missing something, this seems like an incredibly long winded way to check the users IP location?

For example, connecting to a VPN and checking https://cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace gives me `colo:CPH` (Copenhagen) which is far from my nearest CF datacenter (geographically), closer to the IP location from my VPN provider (Oslo) but still not particularly close?

If I don't use a VPN, I don't even get the capital city of my country (which I'm in right now), I get a colo approx 250 miles north. So I also dispute that Cloudflare always returns the "nearest available datacenter".

Don't get me wrong, the write up is cool and certainly interesting - just not convinced on the real world applications here...
