  • That reminds me there was one of his books I read for an elementary school book report just because I had heard he was a famous author and it had something about an underage girl being raped and detailing what injuries it caused or something, it’s been a long fucking time so specifics may be off. I feel like there may have been some significance in a wheat field… I do remember also recalling it again in high school when we were made to read oryx and crake, and the other students were grossed out about the narrating character’s recollections of watching csam material together withh crake, of a girl that may or may not have been oryx in the past.

    I was thinking back then something like Atwood couldn’t hurt me after Stephen king scarred me but pigoons, chicky knobs, and most of all the narrators other obsession of Alex the parrot’s final video somehow really got to me and still bother me to this day.



  • I have other issues with opnsense lately but it has some sort of bufferbloat mitigation that seemed good enough. On the 1000mbps from isp I get 0ms latency increase at the expense of like 100mbps, or 0ms average with some spikes with a 50mbps loss. Can it be done without any download reduction?


  • How is x86 openwrt? I’ve been on opnsense but my APs are openwrt and maybe I’m remembering wrong after a long time of not touching the management page but I could have sworn it used to detail what rate cables connect at and it doesn’t seem to any more without unrememberable shell commands, and at some point my lan domains stopped working, among other minor annoyances I could also swear are new since my absence.


  • Man it doesn’t even feel like that long ago that my mind was blown by 100mbps. Also blown over how I just made a bunch of cat5 (not e) patches for my brother’s brother printer and other non gigabit devices and he mixed it up with the 6a and connected the computer and it seemed to actually work at 2.5gbit. Still put the proper one in though as I can’t trust that and wpnt always be around to babysit it.

    One vote for mini pc router with poe wifi ap. When I first set it up I had a tp omada wifi 5 and switched to a yuncore/kuwfi wifi 6 ap flashed with openwrt and I didn’t even have to touch the router config, although I did so the new ap would get the same ip as the old one.

    As a path to ease in I was also considering keeping whichever of my older tomato and openwrt routers was more powerful processor wise with the wifi off and using the standalone APs as an upgrade to wifi5/6, but the used pc with 2.5gbe and 10gbit sfp+ came into my possession cheaply so I went for it.

    PC router has opnsense though. I haven’t tested x86 openwrt. I also got it cheap because the sfp nic didn’t work, warning of checksum error but I fixed that using intel eeupdate (have to pirate/have nda breaker friend) on a portable windows 10 install.





  • This is one of those things that sounds impossible but then I’ve also seen when someone I know used social engineering to get a malicious build of a free video game on to the laptop of someone else I know to delete all his files remotely and for some reason it actually overheated uncontrollably and melted. I didn’t believe that either until I went with him to get security footage from the university for the warranty claim.

    That was early windows xp era though. I’d really like to believe a damned filesystem driver cand cause that kind of damage, please for the love of dog…








  • I fucking hate mine but I can’t stop playing beat saber. I only play the pc version with wivrn over wifi. It keeps forcing me into the little virtual scene thing when I would only ever want passthrough, some updates make tracking worse and beatsaber unplayable, controllers are super slippy and easy to drom/throw, management phone app spams you with ads/‘reccomendations’, never remembers my window setup and always forces me on to the store or socials by default and I have no friends that would use any fb/meta gaming socials, default face gasket is awful and I tried an alt strap and lost the original when the most comfortable setup I’ve since tried on someone else’s headset was alt gasket and default strap. Probably other stuff I’ve forgotten.
