The electoral college helps protect people who live in America, but not in the most populous areas. Under mob rule, politicians can support policies specifically targeted to helping affluent/dense populations in cities, and also support policies which further marginalize the remaining 90% of the country. Can you name another mechanism which would achieve that goal of protecting a broader interest better?

I’m actually planning to do just about that, based on the discussion in this thread.

I found that I can get an unmanaged switch with 4 2.5gbe ports for under $60, I can use my existing cabling at that speed. I’ll upgrade my aging router to an x86 (n100 or similar) and load my favorite router distro on it. Use that as the router, connect Wi-Fi APs (might even use the eero they give me that way).

I’ll upgrade my systems on the Ethernet using USB dongles (several options at around $20 each)

I’m feeling that improving much beyond 2.5 internally is a bit of a waste at this point.

Thanks to all posters in this thread!

At this stage I don’t know - but they seem to describe a setup where they are essentially providing a WiFi 7 router as an access point, which connects to another piece of hardware acting as the gateway

Ezee fiber is the ISP. Eero max 7 WiFi. XGS PON agree, it is symmetrical

Interesting point about cg nat. With my current ISP setup I get an actual (dynamic) ip4 address and ip6 thru 6rd. Can I still point my domain to the nat’d address?

No we’re definitely all gonna die real soon

Why?

I got in - but there isn’t much to see/do yet. Not sure how to post videos, can’t see anyone else

Weird

Every time I post it’s in the wrong community or against some rule and I get the hammer

I post things I want to see, but I’m apparently alone in that desire

Actual explanation, Craig Ferguson was a late night talk show host. At some point he had Grant Imahara from myth busters build him a robot Co host, he did, it had an articulated head and mouth and arms that moved - and it had a sound board. The sound board offered, of course, limited options. He had a few phrases that he could say. Later they revised Geoff and had him voiced by the actor linked in the video above. He said things like in your pants, balls, etc. and it was generally hilarious. I loved the show, the sketches, and as a Dad, enjoy old jokes. There are at least 4 of us who got it, so… Mission accomplished pretty much

In your pants

Agree it’s not that complicated Many ddns providers can update aaaa just as they do a records… Most isp should either be providing some range of native ipv6 addresses, or some kind of 4-to-6 translation. It’s 2024 - we’re beyond RFC 791 specs I find it helpful to deal with prefix delegation by providing a “token” for nmcli to use. Then the ddns script can locate your defined suffix and push it to to the host

Here in this country we only support domestically based driver surveillance tech 🇺🇲
