Didn’t even know it was a thing, thanks for sharing

Harsh (to yourself), but fair

Without repeating my other comment. This approach saved my life many times

Until you block ICMP one day and then wonder why the server keeps rebooting…

(Been there. Done it)

This.

Do it. This saved my life on more than one occasion.

You’ll think “nah, it’ll be fine” and then at 11pm when your brain’s fried on vending machine coffee you’ll be glad that you did it… 3 times over…

Check out JetKVM

not RAID10 I hope…

Not sure what to make of this, they’ve got the potential to put a million qubits on a chip, but there’s only 8…

And others have had quantum computers for a while now… so… 🤷🏼‍♂️

Similar story here, Bose QC whilst the house next door was (basically) being demolished… I just found the headphones ate batteries faster.

I sometimes find I’m just working with the headphones on and whatever I was listening to had stopped ages ago.

by blocking everyday sounds such as cars beeping, there is a possibility the brain can “forget” to filter out the noise.

Also growing up in the quiet countryside, I can say that you do not “forget” to hear sounds like cars… it’s definitely the everyday background noise that’s the problem.

It all works fine for me with ad/ tracking blockers, browser based blockers, noscript, ublock origin, etc, even geoip blocking for anything inbound

I guess I use different sites…

Yep, totally agree - it’s just getting awareness up.

When I start explaining this to friends & family they give me the same blank look that I gave them when they talk about nutrition & exercise…

Presuming you can put OpenWRT on it, it’ll be fine as a single box

IMHO, I just prefer having it all as separates and then fix / change / upgrade parts as I go - but I soon run out of places to hide them

Is the ISP supplied box also your wifi?

If not, IMHO I’d use the ISP equipment as a pass-through modem (if possible on that model?) and have a separate OpenWRT / pfSense firewall do all the heavy lifting for DHCP, DNS, ad blocking, etc

Depends if you’d then need another WAP, of course

There are already multiple cases of Russian trawlers breaking cables¸ gas pipelines, etc.

Thanks, I was following this thread and wanted to say the same thing

I’ve kept updating shops that change, new houses, parking, etc… it’s great. I even used it on vacation (when the SO wasn’t looking)

My global rank is #1554 and ~#130ish in my local country, but #12 in another country I barely visit, so it shows where more people should complain less support more.

Don’t point at the HQs, point at their mansions / golf courses / private islands

I’m in the same boat: can’t hear any difference.

But, I have GBs of 320k MP3s… is it worth converting to Ogg ?

Also consider outside your home too - either permantly VPNing back through your home network, or (ie for Android) Tracker Control, which will block most ad / sdk / geo trackers that it knows about.

Updated my NAS recently and Immich’s database stopped working due to some PostgreSQL update that needs something changed manually, so I need to get my head around that.

Also trying to get a tablet to run as a 2nd satellite for HomeAssistant voice commands and no matter what I do, only the 1st one responds to wakeword… but I tend to give up after everyone’s gone to bed as I’m literally in a room on my own talking to myself…

You make some good points, but may I say from a single viewpoint.

I can’t physically charge a car at home.

I work from home and travel to customers - most are hours away and I (usually) can’t charge at their office.

Hence, I don’t have an electric car and my next purchase will probably be a self-charging hybrid because I need to recharge / refuel on the journey - hence quickly.

So, in my case, the only way I can go full-electric is with a short charge (/ battery swap) at the places that currently sell fossil fuel, which are becoming battery charging stations (they already have AC mains, so no new infrastructure required).
