  • All of my remote routers are running RouterOS without anything on top of it. RouterOS is powerful enough for anything I throw on it. But I am using much beefier routers, I have 2 x 5009 and a HAP AX3 which have plenty of flash and ram ro run the additional packages I need.

    As for normal computers, I have it on a UPS and I backup core files to off-site areas. Additionally, I buy SSDs that have a little bit of powerloss protection.

    I've never had issues with mini PCs but I've had issues with PIs. I've since switched to high endurance SD cards for my Pis and they've been rock solid. One's actually semi exposed to the elements for about a year now without a hiccup.

    With RouterOS you can still use DoH with either a self hosted list or a selected ad list. If you want to selfhost a DNS server I'd just host a Adguard Home instance on a VPS for all of your devices.

    I also have 2 VPN system for my remote management on 2 separate systems. I learned that the hard way when one of my clients is 8 timezones away.

  • My ISP blocks all outgoing ports. Maybe I'm not trying hard enough but anything I try port forwarding ends up getting blocked.

    Minecraft and port 80 are the 2 I've tried and they've been unresponsive

  • I travel on the go often, wireless charging is too inefficient for me. I'd rather charge with my PD battery pack.

    Another point, I use my PD pack to charge everything from my phone, drone, camera, to my laptop, ear buds.

    Most of those don't have a wireless charger so I just stick to wired PD charging.

  • I'm using the rb5009 but im using RouterOS not openwrt. Any reason why you'd want to do that?

    I personally think if you're buying a purpose built hardware and then putting your own software on it, you should move to a mini computer with OpnSense.

  • Hail specifically is "Precipitation in the form of spherical or irregular pellets of ice larger than 5 millimeters (0.2 inch) in diameter, usually associated with thunderstorms."

    I also want to say that hail should have layers since it's the ice particles floating up and down creating layers and making the precipitation quite large.

    In my mind sleet is precipitation that doesn't have snowflake patterns and are solid when they reach the ground. Freezing rain is when the rain is liquid but freezes after it lands on the ground.

  • Not flashdrive cheap, but I just use cheap 256gb sata M.2 drives and a tool less enclosure.

    Runs at sata speeds and are cheap. Plus the enclosure supports NVMe so I could run around with a 8TB stick.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Don't password managers verify the domain name before offering credentials?

    Does that mean he doesn't use a password manager?

    Edit: RIP, now that's a proper phishing. I understand where he's coming from

  • I have a chase sapphire reserve (visa) that has a credit limit of $24,000. I don't understand why you keep picking cards with low credit limits. Do your research first then apply. Plus credit limits are based on your history with the bank and your annual income. If you have a low income, then they won't approve a large credit limit.

    Also do you not read the sign on the stores you shop at? Pretty sure they advertise which card network they accept.

    You can also literally call customer service and ask for the stipulations for an increase.

    Credit cards are not your clothes.
