It's not elitism to say "If you want something done right, do it yourself."

Elitism?

Dude. I am an almost 50 year old, former truck driver with no formal education on any of this shit, and yet, I managed to figure it out.

If you can't, then that's most assuredly a YOU problem.

SURELY you're smarter than a truck driver?

Only if it's made too hard for a new company or more options to emerge.

The ones who have hate in their hearts can now shows us all their true colors.

That's a good thing in my eyes. Let them show us exactly who they are.

For #3, subnet routing.

I'm the only one in my family who accesses it on the web player, and the other ways still work fine.

I'm not breaking something for the other two users in my household because of my own convenience.

Access via IP address and not the name. I've been having to do it that way for several days now, too.

Edit to add: It's due to a change I made in my OpnSense setup. I restored a ZFS snapshot and it's working again as it should.

Again. That's a lack of skill. Why is it my problem?

If they can't be bothered to do 5 minutes of research before buying something, that's on them.

Caveat emptor.

You can't buy used on Amazon. I said used

The largest majority of people also can't be bothered to do a single shred of research before buying something. How is that anyone else's problem but theirs?

The best consumer protection comes from the consumer. Do a bit of research before you buy something.

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.

It means you don't know how to make it work. Last I checked, a used N100 all in one PC with dual Ethernet is cheaper than even most brand new consumer routers, and also sips watts.

So it's a skill issue, then? Got it. Any old PC + a $10 pcie network adapter can be turned into a router capable of it.

Easy enough to enforce. Put all your IoT devices into their own subnet/VLAN with no Internet access. Then, you'll quickly see which devices you need to replace, or just not use as "smart" devices.

I have a ton of smart devices that don't even connect to wifi at all. None of them have Internet access of any sort.

There's also the slightly-less-hidden cost.

Electricity to run your home server(s).

Where, exactly, do you think the source code will go for aosp? It'll just get forked. See ZFS and openzfs, or Solaris, and illumos.

I would hazard a guess that If one were to draw a venn diagram of people who up voted your comment, and people who just a few years ago, told me repeatedly that trucking jobs were going away in a few years due to self driving trucks, there'd be an awful lot of overlap.....

There's a theory that we already are. That our entire observable universe is, actually.

Mm, spaghetti....

Because when they do, they start charging more for them. cough Kia/Hyundai

Right, because nobody lived here prior to the existence of FEMA.

I, for the life of me, cannot understand how people can look at the history of what our, and most other governments have done, and then say, "Hey, you know what? We need more of that!"

All of the above

It's a very personal issue for me.

I lost everything and had to start over with little more then the clothes on my back, and then to hear people say I should've just moved?
