  • Less HTTPS = easier government & advertiser data collection

  • This is an advanced setup, dual boot is far simpler for a new Linux user.

  • I’d settle for Apple Intelligence not turning itself back on with every iOS update.

  • Yeah this doesn’t work anywhere in Office apps

    Never in my entire life have I wanted to paste with formatting into a word doc, and you always have to click the stupid little clipboard icon after you paste to undo it.

  • Corporate nets use 802.1X authentication, risk of a DHCP hijack is very low.

    As someone who works in large corporate networks, we absolutely don’t assign static IPs outside of core network gear, it’s impossible to manage a fleet of servers in this way with scaling in mind.

  • Instead of doing a manual action in two different places and having to keep them in sync, just do it once on the DHCP server. Setting a static IP on the server is superfluous.

  • good general advice until you have to try to explain to your SO the VPN is required on their smart TV to access Jellyfin.

  • don’t do this, use DHCP reservations instead so you actually have a list of all your servers and most routers register hostnames in DNS for you which is even better.

  • I run an RPi4 at 4k30 and it does well.

  • In my opinion it definitely is, parsec is missing features on Linux.

    A modern RPi can run it pretty well with hardware decoding. Also something like an nvidia shield.

  • Pretty much any wireless AC AP from the last 10 years can hit those speeds with no headache, no keys, and no Windows.

  • An AP is just a WiFi point, you can use pretty much any AP with your pfsense router.

    That’s what most of us do, using this windows VM just for WiFi is only going to cause you a headache in the future.

  • Maybe a stupid question, but isn’t it just easier to get a secondhand AP on eBay or something than deal with this windows WiFi BS?

    You ask about future proofing but Windows 10 is EoL in 8 months.

  • You are a legend

  • This is your life now, if you move and wake them you will have committed a great crime.

  • My personal opinion, as soon as you’re charging and providing SLAs you’ve exceeded what you should be doing on a residential ISP.

    I’d really recommend putting your app in a real cloud solution, which can provide actual load balancing via DNS natively for regional failover if you desire.

  • For what OP is asking DNS has no part in DNAT, they need a load balancer.

    Personally, asking about high uptime on a residential ISP is the larger issue here, but alas.
