I'm a white American that's been living in tijuana, Mexico for the last 9.5 years. I drive north to the US to go to work every day and drive south again to go home. The Mexican border police only check maybe 5% of cars that drive from US to Mexico, and when they check me they've only ever checked my car registration and/or passport. It's an extremely open border crossing when going south.

If you wanted to actually be legal, a temporary tourist visa to visit Mexico can be purchased for about 25 usd and allows you to stay for up to 6 months inside Mexico ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ and when it expires you can buy a new one.

I've read that the TV show was an abomination. Is it any good?

Yeah my case was going to be a 1948/pre1912 through a great great grandmother that didn't voluntarily renounce italian citizenship, so already a toss up from what I've read. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I'll keep an eye on this development anyway, of course. The details of this bill seem hyper aggressive and my first instinct is it wouldn't pass in its current form. But if this is this big of an issue then it seems likely some version of it will pass at some point. And I'm nowhere near having my documentation ready. I expect to need a CONE, to amend my gggm death certificate, at a minimum...

Same. Feels bad. At the same time, it will probably be challenged. There's already precedent set.

Apparently you haven't heard, but now we just send people back to whichever country is convenient at the time

I did this with a string lights, a smart plug, and a home assistant 'sun' integration

I run isponsorblocktv in docker to mute/skip ads and sponsor segments on my smart TV and it works beautifully.

Yeah but it also might be the only option. If one has fiber to the house, for example, it's far easier and less risk of damage or getting the fiber dirty to just plug in to the router instead of trying to find a router compatible with fiber.

Instead of disconnecting theirs one can just run a second router behind the isp router. Place second router in the DMZ of first router. Run LAN from the second router.

I just found FuriOS phone the other day. Looks promising.
