Are you able to tag the appliances after you've huffed all the freon out? I've got an old fridge in the basement I need to get rid of but can't until I get someone out to extract the freon and put the evacuation certification tag on it.

DM me if you can help.

I will always use "M as in 'Mancy'"

That's what I've done for years. Makes managing things much easier, and I run multiple APs (all with the same SSID/PSK) and you can just roam to the best one. One upstairs, one downstairs, one in the weird dead zone in my office, and one on the back patio (it's not hardwired and uses the mesh connection for uplink).

These are all old Aruba APs running OpenWRT but that's the plan for this Cudy Model. I may pick up a few more and just replace all of my trusty but very old Arubas.

I bought this one last month when it was on sale for $39: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BRK3CYY3

Haven't deployed it yet, but it's fully supported by OpenWRT. I would only be using it as an access point, though. My router is a USFF Optiplex with an extra NIC and runs OpenWRT.

I used to have one of those. Think it was 600W on highest setting. Only problem with it was it was tiny and barely anything fit in it. Pretty sure it was meant for RVs but it was $10 at a garage sale and I needed a microwave at the time.

Can confirm, lol. For breakfast, I heated up some leftover spaghetti and meatballs I made last night, and 5 minutes at 60% was the perfect amount.

I've largely moved to using the air fryer / toaster oven to heat things up, but the biggest "life hack" for microwaving is doubling the time and halving the power. That, and stirring halfway through.

No idea, but once I was feeling extra awkward and started singing along with the rest of them.

I'm just now realizing that's probably my resting face.

As a current web developer I'm with you except for the tables. I hate tables with a burning, fiery passion.

I do like responsive design to account for mobile, tablet, and desktop so I try to blend that with classic "just works / just here for the data" layouts and generally minimize the flash in favor of the content. In other words, my projects go to a lot of work to look that simple lol.

No one seems to know exactly what "modern" means when it comes to "modern design". If you ask ten different developers, you get 11 different answers.

My rule of thumb when I see "modern design" touted as a feature is that the developer chose form over function at every turn.

Stan: Does THIS make you feel better?

Evil AI: Stop! Will you?!

Stan: No! You have to look!

Evil AI: 1.6 million views? Who watches this shit?!

 

No, I did not make this mess. Just thought it was funny a jar of sauce and box of spaghetti had both fallen.

 

A still of Jack and Nina from Just Shoot Me. I forget what episode this is (just had them in my screenshots folder), but that is the actual scene.
