Oh I have. And I have never gotten a notification. 😒

I’d love a dream router … if they were ever in stock. Instead they all end on eBay for $100 more than retail. Wonder why that is? (Fucking scalpers)

English is weird but this is right. It might read better if it was “and then later they found out he had been disgraced and forced to quit as police chief.”

Well true but I was assuming the circuits had some things drawing a little power. Flipping on a device and tripping a breaker with 12 machines on it wouldn’t be ideal :)

I have done this before in my upstairs home lab. 3 beefy ESXi machines, some nas storage, and a basic 10gbe switch eats up a lot of a single 15amp circuit. And apparently turning on a TV pushes it over the edge. Luckily the UPS saved my but while a reset the breaker and shut some stuff off.

This is only about 21 amps. Most outlets in a home are 15amps but 20amps isn’t unheard of. From one outlet doubtful but yes one house would provide that much power easily if you split them up to three or 4 rooms on different breakers.

Now it would be fun to watch his electric meter spin like a saw blade … (yes I’m old … I remember meters that had spinning discs)

HungerGamesOS. I love this idea!!!

I was just playing BOTW looking for a mask does that count?

Hey I’m married and use Vim. I feel attacked 😅

What I’d really like is something more akin to google drive streaming. Let me see all the files in the file system but only go get them if I try to open it. I don’t have room for all 2TB of files on my laptop but I don’t want to constantly go click on which folders to sync either.

Pfsense and opnsense are also very good for this.

I totally feel you. I’m in IT and design these incredibly robust systems. But I don’t have that budget for my house and they say “the cobbler’s children have no shoes."

Not sure if this is common knowledge but Pi-hole can also run in a docker container, it doesn’t have to be a raspberry pi. I have it running on portainer on two different machine in my house. I’m a systems architect by trade so there no kill like overkill 😅

You might be a nerd when you have to schedule maintenance at your own house.

Check out Tailscale.

They made a software jailbreak?!?! So I just looked this up and I have Splinter Cell and MechAssault. I may have to dig that thing out and give this a try.

Yeah this “pretty major UX refresh” line bothers me A LOT. Kinda like when Amazon fucked up the UX/UI on the cheap fire tv sticks.

Yeah I think I do too in the attic somewhere. Mid chips on those things where a bitch back then when it first started up. I think they got better though.

Well maybe not. Without the shared libraries I doubt the tech-phobic users will stick around for movies they can likely find other places, especially since I doubt Plex gets very good deals for content.

Did anyone else read this in Macho Man Randy Savage’s voice in your head?

Yep same here. Professional IT for over 25 years. Nobody knows everything. It’s ok to fail. Just keep swimming. And when you do get something working…. that high is unbelievable. It’s like a drug addiction and will drive you to do more and more. Good luck!!!

This is some of the worst game music I’ve ever heard and I’ve been gaming since the late 70s.
