Assets from my dream.io object store are blocked by the TU Delft network #77

Closed moorepants closed 1 year ago

I need to find an alternative hosting solution for the binary assest. TU Delft ICTS refuses to unblock the Dreamhost object store.

You can set an alias for your buckets in DreamHost. I set one to a subdomain of moorepants.info. These urls now work like so (to grab from the mechmotum bucket, only http it seems):

http://mechmotum-bucket.moorepants.info/ArduinoHousingDesign.jpg

But this is still blocked by TU Delft's network. I guess it resolves to the same IP address.

This shows that you can have cloudfare act as a cdn for your objects:

https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000575351-How-to-use-Cloudflare-with-DreamObjects

seemingly for free. Maybe this can work, but I guess the CDN isn't updated instantly when you upload/change objects.

I've copied over the binary assets for this site to my personal website server and changed the urls here:
