Fucking with and/or interfering with someone trying to bring their lost pet home is in the top 3 dick moves you can do as a human.

Just a plain, simple tailor 😎

Literally the best thing you can do for your experience here is just start blocking any account that starts throwing out political labels at any other account. Just block and don’t look back.

Considering I can’t even identify the flavor by the label, I’m gonna say, no, probably not.

In the “DS9: Millennium” trilogy, that’s pretty much exactly what kicks off the plot lol.

Not sure if ADHD specific or a symptom of being “on the spectrum” or a bit of both (have never been diagnosed either way but show all the signs), but I have a very low capacity “social battery” and am very sensitive to noise. The end result is I crave (relative) solitude and quiet or else I’m useless at getting anything done.

An unmanaged switch is just a single plane where all ports are equal. All ports share OSI layers 1 and 2. Anything you plug into port 24 can always reach anything you have plugged into port 3.

Managed switches (also sometimes known as “smart” switches) provide additional features on top of that. The most useful is VLANs (virtual LANs) which let you segregate traffic. Two ports on different VLANs share the same physical layer (layer 1) but are separated at the data link layer (layer 2). This lets you create up to 4096 different networks on the same switch; each network is isolated from the other. If port 24 and port 3 are on different VLANs, then they will not be able to communicate unless they can reach a common router at layer 3.

Additionally, managed switches let you do things like disable/enable ports (for security, power savings, etc), enable port mirroring, and combine multiple ports into an aggregation group (e.g. bond four 1 Gb links into one 4 Gb link).

The available features on a managed/smart switch vary by manufacturer and, often, by the license level (sadly common in enterprise gear). VLANs, port control, mirroring, and LAGs are usually common “baseline” features, though.

Or, you know, we could just quit it with this generational shaming nonsense. It’s not like human beings are complex creatures or anything.

Also unclear on that. But what is clear is OP apparently expects everyone to re-make a funny meme that everyone in the world can understand because they have to make a mountain out of a molehill and lack the imagination necessary to fill in the bl*nks.

Just an x64 box running OpenWRT.

BOGO (Buy One, Get One [Free]) is a well-known term.

Doctor in Front: Everyone stay behind me. I’m a doctor of art history. It’s finally my time to shine.

How many other animals did they put through a sieve to reach this conclusion? How many?!

Which begs the question why not magnets at the top of the building to help pull the electricity up?

Guess it depends on the height, but yeah. Otherwise, we manage to pump a town’s worth of water to the top of a tower well enough. From there, gravity can do the rest.

But there’s probably a point where cost for that vs height becomes prohibitive.

If the costs of engineering a tower is more than just buying more land, then why build taller?

Figured it’d be something like that. Explains why they get built out in the middle of nowhere since land is cheap.

Tall data centers do exist in cities where land is expensive.

Probably a bit of “hiding in plain sight” that way, too. There are a few big datacenters relatively near me, and they’re massive compounds in the middle of even more massive corn fields. Kind of stick out like a sore thumb when you’re driving by.

Same boat. Declined their router and just use their ONT. Not that the router makes a difference, but my “wan6” interface has been waiting for an IP address for about the same amount of time as yours.

I have yet to play Skyrim with any mods even though I’d really like to. Only thing I have are the DLCs.

Getting it to run under Wine has been challenging enough (though it’s a lot easier these days) so I didn’t want to even attempt to mix mods into it.
