Just an expensive timer.
During WWII the United States government rounded up tens of thousands of people, including many US citizens, and put them in internment camps because they looked sort of similar to the people who bombed pearl harbor. Why? Because fear is a powerful drug and when people are afraid, logic tends to go out the window, if there was any logic to begin with. If you pay attention to conservative rhetoric, you’ll notice that much of it is intended to stoke fear, while inserting themselves as the solution. They do it because it works.
Way out in the Arkansas Delta, in a soybean field 50 miles from anywhere, there is a memorial where one of these internment camps stood. If you aren’t looking for it, you’d probably drive right by it unnoticed. All around the camp there are these little voice boxes that you push a button on and it explains what you’re looking at. The voice providing the narration is none other than George Takei who was held there with his family as a child. Spend a little time at a place like this and it will quickly disabuse you of the notion that America has always rejected fanaticism.
“I’m going to get so much done today.” or “If I clean the house, it’s going to stay that way for more than ten minutes.” are just some of the lies I tell myself to help me stay motivated
Try having O Negative. They’ll practically chase you down the street.
No, there’s the original trilogy, the prequels, and the “Oh, it was Palpatine the whole time. …again. How original.”
And August.
They do maintain an x86 build. I haven’t used pfSense but I have used OpnSense so that’s that closest thing I have to compare it to. I think the upside and downside to RouterOS/Mikrotik is the same thing: it allows very granular control over almost everything. Maybe to a fault. It’s probably overkill for most home networks.
Set up a VPS. Create a VPN tunnel from you local network to the VPS. Use the VPS as the edge router by opening ports on the VPS firewall and routing incoming traffic on those ports through the VPN tunnel to servers on your local network.
I used to do this to get around CGNAT. I ran RouterOS in a Digital Ocean droplet and setting up a wire guard tunnel between it and my local Mikrotik router.
It will obscure your local WAN IP and give you a static IP but that’s about the only benefit. And you have to be pretty network savvy to configure it correctly.
It does not make you immune to DDoS attacks and is honestly more headache to maintain (albeit just a small headache).
Yeah, toilets in American homes tend to rely on a siphon to evacuate the bowl so the outlet has to be narrower. Also, Bidets are not very common so most people [insufficiently] clean themselves with toilet paper which is prone to causing clogs.
Personally, I installed a bidet a few years ago and I would never go back to not having one.
I left Reddit because of their shenanigans. The Tiktok crowd deciding Reddit was cool was what guaranteed I would never go back. Now if anyone asks me if I use social media, I just say “No”.
“Bankers hate him! Get an 850 credit score and dictate the terms and interest rate of your own debt using this one simple trick.”
No. Not that I know of anyway. I actually have a “landline” still, although it’s technically voip. It costs next to nothing, it’s handy in emergencies, and I don’t necessarily want everyone to have my cell number.
We all need someone to look up to. Eventually YOU become the person that people look up to, especially if you have kids. I think about that often and it’s sobering because it’s a huge responsibility.
Let me assure you, no one understands risk better than importer-exporter, accomplished author, and latex magnate, Mr. Art Vandelay.
An ideas guy with all kinds of ideas.
…most of which are complete shit.
Conservatives: “They’re trying to cram gAy AgEnDa down our throats.”
My Gay Friend: Works in an office. Pretty good with Excel. Plays golf on Saturdays. Likes cats. Has a boyfriend but still trying to decide if he’s ready for a serious commitment. Just wants to be treated like a regular human being.
Nice to see they’re still chugging the AI Koolaid after completely blundering their test rollout of AI search results.
Ah yes. Nothing better than spending a chilly autumn day in the marsh where I can spot the best looking mallard and obliterate his ass before he even knows what hit him.

Fancy title for the developer that gets yelled at when the CI pipeline is broken. Also a good chance they are the one that broke it.
