also, maybe some bullshit manifesto

Oh please, Daddy Kolanaki~

Honey, what do you think runs on those ethernet switches?

I fail to see how a single port GbE LAN would suffice when other devices got more than that.

What are you talking about? Upgrading on OpenWRT only takes the new ROM image uploaded thru the Web UI.

So it’s Banana Pi.

Begs me to ask why, out of all their models to base on, they gotta pick the one with a 2.5GbE port and a single GbE port. I am fully aware they have similar board with four GbE ports instead.

This is not a news since nothing is happening (yet?)

I think they should get married.

That’s a fancy way to overcharge scotch tape.

I murdered a cow for its nice marbled brisket.

Just kidding, it was prime rib. Dry-aged and cooked rare.

Find a Spanish course, I guess…

Second hand humiliation then

Sounds like what Nazi would do.

For some, yes. Automotive is one that comes to mind. I miss dumb TVs. I’d say laptop, but then I’m rocking a decade-old Thinkpad, so I might be a bit biased here. I also miss phones that aren’t as locked down. I hate what the current streaming service industry have become, and how social media is filled with AI trash.

I’d say that our personal needs for shear computation power have peaked within the last ten years. Yes, people have been saying this since the dawn of personal computers. Yes, servers keep getting more powerful. However, the fact that some schmucks just released a thousand dollar laptop with more or less the same RAM & CPU specs as my decade old Thinkpad kinda proves that.

Other than that, a lot of things are getting better. As an open-source enthusiast, I see things keeps improving, FreeCAD 1.0 just got released, more improvements to Linux kernel, LibreOffice handles MS Office files better, etc. Manufacturing techniques keeps getting more advanced, like 3D printing metal, and for us mortals, faster FDM printing with better plastic material that’s more UV resistant. Radio technologies comes to mind; with SDR, one can achieve what people from last decade would need expensive specialized equipments for, yes you can get your hands on these for cheap.

Last but not least, don’t forget this very platform where you’re reading this very comment ;)

Anything can be scammy if you connect enough dots.

Well played.

OpenWRT is. Not sure if it’s supported on that hardware tho.

Well, if they don’t get that victory, they won’t have to worry about those farmers…
