Should be every single one that supports IPv6.

It’s usually considered a poor idea to use it also as an AP.

The location usually isn’t great for your WiFi and there are better tools for the job.

OpnSense would be the easiest way if you wanted to go. It’s still not easy, but the articles online should help you out.

First you’d need a machine. I’ve got an m920q I bought off eBay for $135 after shipping.

The computer will likely only have one Ethernet port. And it’s likely the port is Realtek which isn’t supported well.

So, you’ll need to get yourself a NIC (a fancy term for a network card). There are good forum posts and articles online about the best NICs to buy for your needs. Intel is a must. However, you can find many of their NICs online labeled as another brand - usually HP, Lenovo, or Dell. Again, the forum posts will tell you what to look for.

If you bought the same computer I mentioned above, you’ll also need a riser and a bezel. Amazon and eBay will have a good selection.

Now assemble it. Flash the computer with OpnSense. Don’t plug it in as your router yet. Follow along with some basic setup guides online to figure out how you want it configured.

Once you’re happy, plug it in as your router and test that it works. If not, you’ll need to put your old router back in place until you can figure out what you need to change.

Most of humanity (like 95%) are better off when the economy is doing poorly, as goods tend to get cheaper.

They’re cheaper because people are buying less.

People are buying less because they don’t have the money to buy more.

They don’t have the money because they’re out of a job.

They’re out of a job because the economy is in the toilet.

The super rich also love recessions. They still have money. If they want to acquire a company, they can do it for cheaper. The GCF of 2007-2009 is considered to be one of the largest wealth transfers and wealth consolidations in history.

It would be even cheaper if you bought them nearly anywhere else but the dollar store.

Unit for unit, dollar stores are almost always more expensive than grocery stores or warehouse clubs.

I think Utah’s governor, a Republican, actually put it best.

The transgender sports participation issue is one of the most divisive of our time. Because there are logical and passionate arguments by many parties, finding compromise or common ground can be difficult. Sadly, there is very little room for nuance in this debate. But I hope you will permit me an opportunity to explain my reasons for vetoing HB11…

I must admit, I am not an expert on transgenderism. I struggle to understand so much of it and the science is conflicting. When in doubt however, I always try to err on the side of kindness, mercy and compassion. I also try to get proximate and I am learning so much from our transgender community. They are great kids who face enormous struggles. Here are the numbers that have most impacted my decision: 75,000, 4, 1, 86 and 56.

• 75,000 high school kids participating in high school sports in Utah.

• 4 transgender kids playing high school sports in Utah.

• 1 transgender student playing girls sports.

• 86% of trans youth reporting suicidality.

• 56% of trans youth having attempted suicide.

Four kids and only one of them playing girls sports. That’s what all of this is about. Four kids who aren’t dominating or winning trophies or taking scholarships. Four kids who are just trying to find some friends and feel like they are a part of something. Four kids trying to get through each day. Rarely has so much fear and anger been directed at so few. I don’t understand what they are going through or why they feel the way they do. But I want them to live. And all the research shows that even a little acceptance and connection can reduce suicidality significantly.

At least for Ubuntu, you do need to set the permissions of the AppImage before it’ll launch.

I still haven’t figured out how to make .desktop files work yet.

That would be great, but you can buy a $20 burner from a gas station that’s more powerful than those phones.

The regular version uses the Allwinner A64 chip which retailed for $5 when it was released… Back in 2015.

The Pro version uses the RK3399S, which is a custom lower binned version of the RK3399. Neither chip was made available retail, but the SK3399 was released in 2016 and only otherwise used in low-end Chromebooks and SBCs.

She begged the USSR to absorb East Germany because she thought that German reunification would lead to another Hitler situation.

Best not be including my carrot erotica in your training data.

Death rate per 100,000,000 miles has been dropping a lot over time.

In 1923, when it first started being tracked, it was standing at 21.65. 1970, it was 4.88. 1990, 2.21. In 2021, it was 1.5.

It spiked recently, though, a tiny bit around 2015-2016 but then greatly in 2021. In 2014, the rate was 1.17.

I do agree that the self-driving features are kinda pointless, especially right now, though. GM has gotten especially bad with their marketing, showing ads with people intentionally taking their hands off the wheel and not paying attention to the road while the car’s moving.

I’ve had to reboot my Linux computer every couple of weeks because of an update.

I reboot my Windows laptop maybe once every few months because of an update.

Same with my printer.

On Linux, I had to configure CUPS. This meant finding out which of the 30+ different drivers for my printer model actually worked. Then it meant determining which of the dozen or so different “devices” would actually work. And until I got it working correctly, it randomly crashed.

There are plenty of things Linux is better at but it isn’t that great at handling standard devices with any ease. I’m sure that I can do a lot more now with the Linux driver, but sometimes I just want to tell my computer that’s my printer and I just want this printed.

A few years back they dropped some clients (including the one for my old TV) because they were dropping support for legacy SSL ciphers on their servers

TLS 1.0/1.1? Those were deprecated and dropped by the IETF with RFC 8996. You can’t even get a certificate using 1.0/1.1 anymore unless you are self-signing.

You can also allow unauthenticated users on certain networks, usually limited to your local nets. But I do agree that doesn’t solve the problem. I’d love to allow users to optionally use local authentication with, eg, Authelia, something built in, or an LDAP backend.

I installed Jellyfin on my server but the Android TV app is just so awful.

It honestly feels like a webpage from 2005 with all the blocky elements, terrible scrolling, and no way to sort.

If you want to go to, say, Workaholics, you have to scroll through your entire library until you get there. There’s no option to go straight to W. And, don’t worry, the scrolling is very slow the whole time!

The search seems to work maybe 10% of the time. I’ve typed in the name of a movie and it wouldn’t find it, but it did find episodes of shows that kinda match. I’ve typed in names of TV shows and it’s found nothing. Both times, the movies and shows existed in my library.

If they can make it look and work better, I’d be happy to switch to it fully. All I’d need then is a way to pull the XMLTV file from Plex so I can record, too.

The Plex app for the Shield has a lot of bugs itself, though. I connected my Shield to a smart plug because it froze the system often enough that I needed to automate a way to restart it. Unfortunately I’d rather put up with that than the Jellyfin UI.

Anyone can pick the lock in seconds if they take the time to learn.

My dad owned a few vending machines when I was a kid. Since they were used, he had to replace the locks on all of them and taught us how to pick them. It’s relatively easy to do so. I think he only ever ended up drilling out one of the cylinders while he was able to pick the rest.

A Bic pen won’t work that well, but a $50 pick will.

Btrfs was the best filesystem I had used up until it corrupted my data.

There’s also federally mandated FML and disability, but neither are required to be paid.

If God didn’t intend for us to die at the ripe old age of 40 because of poor diets, he wouldn’t have given us cows and trans fats 😤
