I'm surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.

Ask me anything.

Special skills include: Knowing all the "na na na nah nah nah na" parts of the Three's Company theme.

I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

  • QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year

    Jump

  • Yes, please!

    The Titan 2 Elite looks awesome though it appears to be just a render right now. I was looking at the original Titan a while back but it was pretty dated even then. Gonna keep an eye out for the Elite.

    The phone will come powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor, have 12GB of RAM, and 512GB of internal storage. There is no word on the display or the battery, but going by the previous release, it should be an AMOLED screen, and the battery should be 5,000mAh. Neither is there any word about the release timeline, pricing, or other features of the device right now. The sole official render of the phone suggests a sleeker-looking body, erringly similar to the Clicks Communicator.

  • Blender

    Jump

  • Yeah, I really like mine and it's used pretty frequently. No complaints. I just mentioned those aspects as things that worry me but otherwise so far so good after 5 years.

  • Blender

    Jump

  • Yeah, that's exactly the kind of thing I worry about breaking on it. I'm not sure about the blender pitcher, but the food processor attachment definitely has that.

    Haven't had any issues, but I'm always just super careful with it.

  • Blender

    Jump

  • I really like my Ninja one but it's got some weird mechanical sensors in the base that tell it what attachment you're using (blender pitcher, food processor, single-serve cup, etc). I've had it for about 5 years now and use it regularly, and it's held up, but I always worry about those little sensor things messing up.

  • low-tech cellphone recs for someone in the US?

    Jump

  • FWIW, until I decided on the S22 Flip, the Nokia 2780 was my preferred candidate.

  • low-tech cellphone recs for someone in the US?

    Jump

  • Look at the Nokia 2780, Nokia 110, and/or the Nokia 3210.

    They're modern equivalents to their predecessors of yore and run a simple non-smartphone OS (Kai OS) and use VoLTE so are compatible with modern networks. Bonus is they can do things like hotspot.

    I was looking at those and similar about a year and a half ago when I wanted to switch to a dumb phone. I ended up compromising with the CAT S22 Flip which is a low-end Android phone in a flip phone form factor. Wasn't difficult to de-Google and was able to root it. Unfortunately, they're not made anymore so what's left is what's left. They've also jumped quite a bit in price since I got mine for $69.99 back in 2024.

  • Just Days From SLS Rollout, Here’s the Latest Update for NASA's Artemis 2 Mission

    Jump

  • It's technically correct when referring to what body the ship itself is orbiting though weirdly worded I'll admit. Humans have not orbited another body besides earth since Apollo 17 in 1972. Though I don't think this mission will actually orbit the moon in the traditional sense and is more of a manned flyby. Still, they'll be captured into lunar orbit even if they're effectively going to turn around and go home right after by not completing orbital insertion.

  • Speeds drop on ONT restart

    Jump

  • Nice catch. That's a bit outside my knowledge since I just use the x86 build on a dual-NIC mini PC.

  • Speeds drop on ONT restart

    Jump

  • Well, if it's negotiating at 1 Gbps but you're only getting 100 Mbps, assuming the Pi router itself is fine, then yeah, sounds like something upstream from you on the ISP side (ONT provisioning, etc).

    On the plus side, when you engage support next you can let them know you've ruled this out so there's at least that much progress lol.

  • Speeds drop on ONT restart

    Jump

  • Mine shows up on the main Overview page like in your second screenshot:

    To check from terminal, assuming your WAN interface is eth1:

    cat /sys/class/net/eth1/speed

    Should be 1000 for 1 Gbps, or 100 for 100 Mbps.

    Either end (ONT or Pi) could cause the auto negotiation to drop to 100 Mbps. Since that's the consistent speed you're seeing, I'm inclined to believe that's the problem though the "why" is up in the air. Like I said, try a different ethernet cable and different device connected directly to the ONT and see if it negotiates at 1000 Mbps.

  • What are some unique things that sucks about getting old?

    Jump

  • Hard to quantify it, so bear with me.

    Not so much a specific genre or distribution medium as much as "the artist/band was born after 9/11". Like, there are some bands that have been around forever and still putting out new stuff and that's mostly fine (though I don't necessarily like all of it) but anything overly electronic is basically a hard pass for me.

  • What are some unique things that sucks about getting old?

    Jump

  • Oh yeah, I'm the same. It just gets rarer and rarer each year that I find something I can enjoy. Objectively, it has nothing to do with the quality of modern music (well, maybe a little lol) just the styles changing and my taste not keeping up.

  • Speeds drop on ONT restart

    Jump

  • When it's in this state, does the OpenWRT interface status show the speed as 100M or 1G for the WAN port?

    Assuming OpenWRT shows it as 100M, it sounds like it's negotiating the port speed to 100 Mbps rather than 1000 Mbps.

    Have you tried a different ethernet cable to the ONT and/or checked the port for any lint, dust, or other debris? Could be an issue with the ONT but I'd rule out any simple things like a dirty port / bad cable first.

    You might also try, if you haven't already, a different device than your router connected directly to the ONT and see what speed ethernet negotiates and if it also only runs at 100 Mbps (to rule out anything with the Pi itself)
