Yeah that’s kind of the downside. I considered using a Raspberry Pi but it felt weird to use its Ethernet port alongside some micro USB → Ethernet adapter that probably wouldn’t hit 1 Gbps anyway.

Honestly I just bought a small mini PC and installed Linux on it — that’s my router. I got sick of consumer trash anyway and decided to roll my own. The mini PC is overkill, you can get by very modest hardware.
I had to do some digging because I remembered something similar too.


God only supports x86, all other architectures go straight to Hell


I do most my work on the terminal so I prefer something in the middle: convention over configuration, most functionality included but rather small by default. More complex needs can be compiled in.
Related: I wish more Linux distributions’ package managers would allow for binary installation alongside source compiled packages. In FreeBSD I’m amazed at how well pkg’ binary packages play with ports-compiled ones.
This reminds me of a long running joke I have with my wife since I purchased a pizza oven. The idea is to invite all our friends over for “pizza night” but when they all show up we’d just have a few “fancy” frozen pizzas.
Why not just go to the bathroom before sleeping?


Why use NTFS if FAT32 works?


Right? I’ve gone through ReiserFS, ext3, ext4, XFS, Btrfs, ZFS; hell on macOS I’ve been through HFS+ and AFS. And clunky ol’ Microsoft is still on fucking NTFS.

Right, why would you need a physical hardware button to go back to the last app? It’s treating the entire OS like a single tab in a web browser.
TL;DR: You have no reading comprehension. Also, why do you need to summarize your comments? It wasn’t even long.


The back button is just completely unnecessary. Imagine not knowing how to get back to something because the UI is atrocious so you revert to relying on a hardware key. 😷


Back button on a mouse? I use a Trackpad. If I wanted to spend all day slowly navigating the UI click by click I might go back to a mouse.
And by the way, the reason I know it takes you back to an entirely different app than the one you’re using is because I’ve used it before. 😒


What is it with Android users’ obsession with the back button? Who actually cares? Why would I want some button that goes back to the wrong app for some reason?


I was going to say California. We have constant outages — having grown up in blizzards and tornados I never imagined they wouldn’t be able to keep power on here. It’s bad, like I mean when there’s a little wind it’s probably not staying on.


the OS
Windows maybe? I’ve been using macOS (UNIX), FreeBSD (UNIX) and Linux for the past 20+ years.


I typically have two tabs of the same website open and need to know which tab belongs to which page. Just having the icon looks so sloppy to me and I always see coworkers cycle through their 4,000 tabs to get to anything.
Yikes, cow’s milk?
