I think they are looking for an early release from the lease, not a refund on a purchase.

There are differences but I wouldn’t use terms like “liberal” although those who chose to join the Marines due tend to have a particular stereotype.

You might want to edit your post to read “armed forces” rather than army. The United States armed forces include Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Marines, Air Force, Space Force (LOL), and the National Guard. I apologize if I left anyone out.

I set up my GranCentral, now Google Voice, account using a VoIP number from a company that went defunct many years ago. My Google accounts use said Google Voice phone number to validate because GrandCentral wasn’t owned by Google back then. I assume this use case is so small, there is no point fixing it. So essentially, my accounts fall into a loop where google leads to google, etc.

heh

I’ve been meaning to switch from Tailscale to Headscale but I have been to busy. Do you have any instructions, write-ups/walk-thrus you could recommend to set this up? I have three sites with 1GB internet I can use. One has a whole house UPS but dynamic IP, another has a static IP but no UPS, and the third is Google fiber with no UPS, but I can use the app to get the current IP anytime. I also own a number of domain names I could use.

I will forever mourn the movie we could have had. The theatrical cut ended up being a Disney movie compared to the original. Alas, all footage is lost to time.

Cop Land is amazing. Most people forget that Stallone has been nominated for three academy awards.

There are so many movies I could list but for now I’ll go with About Time (2013). Everything about it makes it seem like it would be a dumb sappy romcom but it manages to hit hard.

EDIT: This is the type of image they used to market the film, which is really misleading.

Information security and data management for the most part.

I work 80+ hours a week (this week I’m gonna clock 96+) and things don’t break on a schedule. I started at around 6:30am after going to bed at ~2:00. Normally I have a window around 10:00am, but no such luck today. I also ran out of protein bars.

I can shitpost on my phone while monitoring a code run and listening to a conference call. I don’t have serving staff and I don’t eat fast food (delivery), so breakfast requires my time and attention for preparation.

PS: Finally had breakfast at ~1:15. I should really meal prep but alas, ADHD.

PPS: I only post and comment on Lemmy when I’m busy working as a way to destress and keep focused. Otherwise my nervous energy starts to eat at me. If I’m here, I’m busy.

Impressive. I have been on fiber for a number of years now and when I switched the fastest pure cable (not fiber to the curb) I could find was 300 down and 10 up. Because of my work, upload speeds are as important as down, which is why I had to switch.

Where does this magic cable go?

The answer is either “it goes on the threaded port of your cable modem” or “it goes to a distribution panel somewhere outside”. It really depends what you meant by the question.

How long is the cable?

Normally you want to keep the cable as short as possible.

How does so much data go through a single-pin coax cable?

Technology has continued to progress but I think many cable providers are capping at around 100 mbps. I could be wrong.

Wouldn’t it be better if there were more pins, like in a twinax configuration?

Not necessarily.

There are also other houses in my neighborhood. Are their cables connected to mine?

It depends on the configuration your ISP used. Many would in fact share a pipe’s bandwidth amongst blocks of homes. I not sure how prevalent that practice is today.

Can their routers see the packets sent by my router, similar to ethernet?

No. Every single home is on a different network.

How has your day been?

It’s almost 1:00pm and I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had a chance to have breakfast yet.

Homie’s body wash.

I’ll keep an eye for him. I just started FMA last night. I’m a whopping two episodes in.
