Zyxel NAS Starter Utility alternative, finding the NAS device

Zyxel stopped publishing/supporting their NAS Starter Utility, so when I needed to access some files on it, I had to find a new way to locate the NAS on the network.

The easiest way for me was to go to the router's web site and look at the list of attached devices and their ip addresses.

Then from there I could map a network drive with \\192.168.1.XX\Volume1 and put in the correct credentials and get access to the data.

Also additional networking settings were needed from Windows features.

Convert TeamCity foldable sections to GitLab CI foldable sections

When switching CI/CD system systems, you have lots of scripts with sections. Cleaning them up for the next system takes some time.

Using the above pair of scripts you can get it done quickly.

A list of anime with ratings, ChatGPT

Prompt

Rate the above list of some anime, tv shows and animated movies by recommended age limit (e.g. 14+) and give a rough quantity (0 to 10) of foul language, gore/blood, and nudity/cleavage/soft porn. Include a short paraphrase of the premise of the anime and the title and the year. Display the list in a markdown table, not a list. When there is a "+", add an empty row. Give an ordered direct answer and pause after the first break (the first 13 items). Then prompt to continue.

Unity to Godot, importer

Summary

It's pretty straight forward... Download the FBX2glTF tool and unitypackage_util tool from github.

The unitypackage_godot starter project puts things into a folder called imports by default and isn't perfect with scenes.

The unidot_importer is a godot addon that should be placed under a folder in your godot project called addons. It appears to be better with scenes, but requires the modded FBX2glTF tool.
