The VGA plug in OP is part of a series and I bought all three, including the SCSI one (which is objectively the best one)

What's amazing how high they were already in 2024

This is the dial in our current late-90's apartment (apologies for the limescale). It is gradated in Celsius

My kids like something in the mid-30's, I like just under 40, my wife like closer to 45. A pretty decent range IMHO

I've never had this problem anywhere I live (Sweden and Japan) so I'm assuming it has to do with some kind of especially cheap fixtures?

They've been trying in Sweden by pushing paternal leave to make it so the males are just as likely to take time off as women so it's more equitable, but there was a lot of pushback on "forcing men" to do it and not allowing for "individual choice" as to who takes the parental leave

In Japan they let kids go outside without supervision starting a really young age.

Yeah I live in Japan and my daughter started going on errands ("go get some milk/eggs") alone at age 5. All kids are then expected to walk themselves to elementary school starting from the first week, there is no room for drop-offs from a car.

Same here. Some of the things that have helped make our situation easier:

  1. Where we live, by law my wife got a year per kid off of work for childcare. I don't know how people do this without a full-time parent.
  2. Since I work remotely, if my wife had a rough night, she could sleep during the day without worrying the kid was going to kill themselves because I would be around.
  3. Our kids were definitely on the easier side, especially our first. They almost never cried for zero reason (90% of crying was quickly remediated with the "diapers, hungry, sleepy" checklist), they quickly started sleeping well, etc. Some people have complete devil kids, colic, etc.

What we gave up was doing things together as a couple (romantic dinners etc), as we always had to either bring the kids or stay home with them, but we could still do things on our own when we wanted to. We have family nearby, but they deemed themselves "too old" to look over the kids when they were still babies. Now that our kids are in elementary school age they've been able to sleep over once or twice a year when we get to do a parents getaway for our anniversary etc.

This new driver is written in Rust, so it changes nothing about the debate

The TV app on my iPhone also shows content from Hulu so I think it's across all Apple platforms

This is why I'm still using a Synology ¯\(ツ)

I can install all the fun stuff I want in Docker, but for the core OS services, it's outsourced to Synology to maintain for me

I guess technically, yes

Ookla speedtest, 7 Gbps down, 2 Gbps up

 
 

My internet connection is getting upgraded to 10 Gbit next week. I’m going to start out with the rental router from the ISP, but my goal is to replace it with a home-built router since I host a bunch of stuff and want to separate my out home Wi-Fi, etc onto VLANs. I’m currently using the good old Ubiquiti USG4. I don’t need anything fancy like high-speed VPN tunnels (just enough to run SSH though), just routing IPv6 and IPv4 tunneling (MAP-E with a static IP) as the new connection is IPv6 native.

After doing a bit of research the Lenovo ThinkCenter M720q has caught my eye. There are tons of them available locally and people online seem to have good luck using them for router duties.

The one thing I have not figured out is what CPU option I should go for? There’s the Celeron G4900T (2 core), Core i3 8100T (4 core), and Core i5 (6 core). The former two are pretty close in price but the latter costs twice as much as anything else.

Doing research I get really conflicting results, with half of people saying that just routing IP even 10 Gbit is a piece of cake for any decently modern CPU and others saying they experienced bottlenecks.

I’ve also seen comments mentioning that the BSD-based routing platforms like pfSense are worse for performance than Linux-based ones like OpenWRT due to the lack of multi-threading in the former, I don’t know if this is true.

Does anyone here have any experience routing 10 Gbit on commodity hardware and can share their experiences?
