I just did this over the weekend, I’ll try to remember to come back after work and add in my steps. It can be really confusing to parse over a bunch of tutorials

100%. A full on IT Workers Union would immediately become one of the most powerful weapons in fighting the oppression of the capitalist class. An IT strike could be effective enough that a general strike wouldn’t be necessary

As an American who spent most of their life in the south, which abhors public transit because racism(wish I was making that up) and now on the west coast, which is better but still woefully behind y’all, this is a fantasy for me

Wait for real? I don’t think I’ve heard many say those terms out loud, i pronounce them in my head Nome, Mate, Soos, and q-t

Good now I don’t have to plan a huge data migration for a good long while

I actually missed that you mentioned the nighthawk in your post somehow, I bought one in 2020 so I wouldn’t have to rent Comcast’s but that’s what I’m currently using. If you have your own wireless router that broadcasts on the frequencies you need with the SSIDs that are already in your various devices you can almost certainly just throw that into AP mode and then just connect it to pfsense once it’s configured and not miss a beat.

I’d also recommend getting your own modem(arris surfboard s33 is my recommendation) if your ISP allows it

So I said “old” but it’s still relatively new and broadcasts on both 2.4 and 5 ghz

Naw not dumb but thats kinda your call, I just put my old WiFi router in Access Point mode and hooked it up to the machine I’m using and it works great. I’m sure it’s possible to use a pcs internal radio to broadcast but I’ve never researched that myself

pfSense either virtualized or on almost any cheap mini pc with more than one nic

I’m actually not, I was really excited for Kbin during the migration and just got on .world until it was more fleshed out. But 6 months later I think it missed the first boat out of Reddit and may not catch on now

That’s true but it does take a long time to get to England in a row boat

I trust me to not steal from me, I do not trust me to write good code

For sure, but if someone is considering a smartTV I’m presuming they are looking for simplicity. And while Roku does probably spy at least their shit works, I want to break my LG WebOS tv on a daily basis, I’ll never buy another smartTV

Edit: also unless something has changed you can’t flash anything onto Samsung or LG tvs if that’s what you meant. If I’m wrong tell me and I’ll have a project to complete today

Straight up don’t fucking do it, smart tvs are all trash that’s spies on you. Get an equally sized industrial monitor for about the same price and throw a Roku on it

If you are determined go Samsung, Tizen sucks but WebOs is the worst OS I’ve ever experienced

Dale would beat the shit out of Jack Welch if they met
