  Are you on carrier grade NAT (CGNAT) public IP in the address space 100.64.0.0 to 100.127.255.255?

  The only reason I can see to be against this is because of religion, as long as safeguards are put in place it should be a non issue. Switzerland has been doing it since 1942

  Yeah assuming young means below 16, you can’t expect babies to know how to do online piracy, give them until they at least 10 or so

  Hydro is just more dense steam, wind is less dense steam, it’s steam engines all the way!

  I object to your third point, it can be a sexy black box

  I can recommend the nanopi r4s, supported by openwrt, ipfire and I think opnsense. Ive been using it as my main router for almost a year now on a symmetric 1Gb connection. Best part is it’s super cheap and tiny

  I’m still on my original one from 20 years ago, only had to replace the head 3 times and the handle twice

  100EB that’s the one after PB, good to know that the government can store it all as ZFS supports files that large

  What you just described is called cooking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Getting Fiber - Please Help Me Understand Routers⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I went through this at the beginning of the year, it get 900/900 fibre, settled on openwrt running on a nanopi r4s. My other options were a nanopi r6s with openwrt, or nuc type hardware/server running something like pfsence/opnsence etc. The openwrt install took about 5mins then a couple of hours of exploring various menus options etc, which I didnt end up changing.

  All I’m reading from this is that the company has “ethical violation” problems and should probably be investigated

  Not from the US, but I believe it’s to do with child protection laws, Google says it’s COPPA. Generally a service has to put in extra protections, such as prevent direct messaging, not tracking kids, not personal info. Basically all the bad shit that social media does, they can’t do to kids and most importantly have to actively monitor and restrict. That why most apps and stuff ask for date of birth or if you are over 13 or whatever

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But my WiFi is just fine!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I get it too, but it was a bit of a shock given that the selling points for everything is bigger better faster stronger, otherwise why would people upgrade. It’s like finding something with a micro USB port on it instead of type c

  My canon ink tank type printer from mid COVID era is the same, didn’t realise it was only 10/100 on the wired port until I was looking at the switch one day and wondered why I had a yellow light instead of green, was about to run a new network cable until I checked the printer

  Have you had a look at PCI exhaust fans and cable ties as cheaper version of this akasa.co.uk/update.php?tpl=product/product.detail…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Server hardware overheating? Zip ties is always the solution.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I did this without the zip ties, kind of wedge it between the motherboard and the power cables.
