how do you use it with one hand?

imo that’s the only benefit of having a smartphone. any other computer can do internet calls too

their point is unambiguous to me. it is that it is more complex to check if something was done according to a regulation, compared to checking if it was done at all.

Eh, most good quality routers from reputable companies can handle separate VLANs just fine. My old Asus RT-N66U had that capability right out of the box.

I haven’t seen “advanced” settings like this on consumer tplink and asus routers, only on business grade tplinks, when considering these brands. but I also wouldn’t consider those that I often see to be good quality, so there’s that.

to me that sounds like arguing that banning behavioral advertising would result in all monetarily free social platforms stopping to exist

chinese tech was cheap even before datamining and IoT was a thing. “banning” datamining wouldn’t make chinese tech expensive

where did I recommend that?

It’s not about me, but about all the people around me

Why is it my problem?

Because when manufacturers see that they can get away with this shit, they will all start doing it, and then you can stick up your research because there will be nothing else.

If you can’t be bothered to take a few extra minutes to do that, then quite frankly, you deserve to be fucked by scammers.

and this is exactly how being fucked by scammers will become normal

stop with your fucking elitism and start thinking what to do for those whos work/hobby is not in IT, because that’s 99.999% of people.

also, in my area most people either use the ISP router, or buy the cheapest ones which is around 50-75 eur which there are plenty, and they are already complaining that it’s too expensive

cheapest n100 I see here is 100 eur: https://www.amazon.fr/intel-n100/s?k=intel+n100

I’m not in france.

largest majority of smarthome shit users don’t know or care how computers work. are you willing to legally ban them from buying these garbage? or what is the solution?

and then they need to set it up (wtf, they have issues navigating their phones), and get it maintained (updates)

redacting with strikethrough is fine, and that way we all can learn

it is first and foremost a

Hardware issue.

but also who the fuck wants to have a power hungry PC as the router. old PC, so we can probably count with 80 W at the least

but also, how the fuck would a PC help with the skill issue?

Easy enough! except, that most people don’t even know what is a VLAN, let alone have any network device that supports it. It takes a special kind of router to have such settings, and no, OpenWRT is not the solution for that as they have limitations on the minimum amount of memory the device has to have

this is a “beta”, the 2nd Release Candidate. they’ll mark a stable version when most of the bugs have been ironed out.

the url too. meta was never safe, and was never intended to be safe. the only way to make it safe is to shut it down.

unconfortable but true

If one person calls the emergency line with an emergency and doesn’t get through because the human dispatchers are currently overwhelmed with non-emergency calls, does that mean the entire current system is failed and someone should go to jail?

I don’t think so, because currently there is no artificial delay. if someone has to be got rid of, that is the person(s) who are keeping the call center short staffed, whoever that is and whatever high up the chain they are

one of the most important factors with emergency services is that there is as little delay as possible. and that starts at the phone call. if everyone is delayed by this screening, and then they’ll maybe get through to a person, it’ll be much less likely that the person calling will be able to even just get assistance in time

because that’s the new hip OS
