This is a community for people who have home servers. 100M is fine for a couple people just web browsing, but that’s not the topic of this discussion.

I run 10G between my desktop and my server because I can easily saturate a 1G connection doing a simple file transfer.

I hate this so much, but I can’t do anything but agree.

Ryobi cordless tools because I’m a light duty user. Wiha screwdrivers because I’m worth it (and they are worth it). And the nice Hakko soldering tools because I use those more.

I had a Harbor Height cordless drill that worked just fine for like six years, to my surprise and delight. I’m a light duty user, so I upgraded to a brushless Ryobi.

I run http://long.cat (but I’m not a web dev, so the cool scrolling bit only works on desktop)

Universal Radio Hacker probably isn’t as simple as you are hoping, but it should be moderately easy and very powerful https://github.com/jopohl/urh

Where are you seeing dread? Most of the cicada news I’ve seen falls between “this is a cool curiosity” and “this happens regularly and is perfectly fine”. Also plenty of articles about eating them.

Because mainstream porn sites are blocked or require age verification in my state. Other good reasons are to avoid some issues when torrenting things or to “be” in another country to get around Netflix and other streaming service region blocks.

Privacy and avoiding man in the middle is kinda bullshit. Nearly all websites use TLS, so mitm isn’t possible. And it’s only privacy from your ISP.

I agree with the people suggesting Onshape.

But if you like programming, OpenSCAD can be really interesting.

After he did it the first time, I linked him a nice Wiha set. He stripped more a week later because he hadn’t gotten around to buying the screwdrivers. (iFixit is great too)

One of the IT guys at my work is really good at stripping torx, but that’s because he uses a driver a couple sizes too small.

Last time I tried it, the prebuilts packages didn’t work, and the version I built from source couldn’t recognize any graphics or video outputs to use 😞

No we aren’t 😞

I’ve had them. They are bad.
