The independent reporting allegations means that they're reporting what one of the parties is saying. Not that the independent has evidence of it. That's as wrong as saying "They plead not guilty - if that's good enough for the independent to report, shouldn't it be enough to support them not being guilty?"

Either way, it's going to court, and likely she'll be convicted of manslaughter.

My original comment was about how slow Ethernet over power was and you claimed that only matters if your internet is faster. There are lots of situations where you'd run cable where that statement isn't true. If you had said "sure it's slower but it still works sometimes" that's a wildly different statement than the equivalent of "speed only matters if it's the bottleneck to the internet"

Power line adapters are usually fairly separated by different circuits, but that's far from a hard limit. Just because there's not a reliable connection between two circuits doesn't mean the medium isn't shared and interference can't happen - it is very much like wifi through a cement wall or two.

In no way am I personally offended, I just used some sarcasm to show how inane that original statement is; and those kind of statements are everywhere in networking discussions.

I didn't realize that the only thing people used network connections for was Internet connections. Wow thanks for letting me know.

Lots of ISPs offer way more than 100mbps, many places offer past 1gbps. Even if they don't, there are many LAN-based things that run even if you don't know they do. P2p software updates are widespread now. So yeah "it depends" on whether you care about a fast and stable network connection.

Not to mention, power line is a shared medium, much like wifi, so if you have two computers, kiss even your already slow speeds goodbye

11mbps, even if that's megabytes not bits, is pretty fuckin slow as far as network speeds today. That's either 1/100th or 1/10th of gigabit speeds, and a good Ethernet cable can provide well over gigE nowadays

I seem to remember that yes, it was even for low voltage data cabling.

Not that I would imagine anyone's enforcing it strongly

Skype was wild with how aggressively it tried to create a direct connection. I love it for its tenacity but it would do things like open up listening sockets on common server ports (so it would conflict with e.g. a webserver) which drove me nuts at the time

Almost as though it would be better if it didn't

That's a spring hinge - I would not attempt to disassemble it. For this one, I'd use a light oil, like 3 in one oil or sewing machine oil and just do my best to get it into the hinge, either through the upper hole with the bar coming out of it, or allowing it to penetrate down the seam in the center of the top. You'll probably need to work the door back and forth a bunch to get the oil where it needs to go.

I'm not here to kink-shame, but a center-brownie lover? You just admit that casually online?

Personal preference: Jellyfin instead of plex

Some that I run that you don't seem to have anything for:

• Lancache (if you have several gaming PCs on the network or host any kind of lan party)
• surveillance camera software e.g. shinobi
• I see grafana, but other monitoring services like icinga, librenms, etc
• Mayan EDMS - I've found this really helpful as anything I get in the mail, I scan in, and this makes it all searchable and retrievable.
• There's a whole hole you could dig if you start getting into home automation (I use home assistant)
