That will add extra latency from USB. Old programs are not likely to be very tolerant of that.

I would only recommend using it if a native package is not available or you need a newer version than what's available.

Half the time I will just compile from source when I see how much space a flatpak and its dependencies will take up though.

Always get a router that you can install OpenWRT or OPNsense on.

There's an option to allow it to run offline and that will allow it to work with cracked clients. There's no user authentication, so only make the server accessible to people you trust over a VPN.

I wouldn't put one of those amazon spy devices in my house even if they paid me. There's no way in hell I'm going to pay to use one.

Someone already worked out how to do it: IP over Avian Carriers. The ping time is terrible though.

We just need a law to prevent them from changing the prices during business hours or limit it to one change per day if they are open 24/7.

Of course there aren't many people buying EVs when the only ones available in the US are high end luxury models.

Import a bunch of those cheap Chinese EVs and lots of people will buy them. It won't hurt the US manufacturers because they don't produce any budget models.

NAT works fine until you get stuck on CGNAT and can't host anything on IPv4 without using a VPN.

The benefit is being able to easily access devices from the internet. The same address works on the LAN and WAN. There's no port forwarding, so multiple devices can have the same port open. You also don't need to mess with a VPN if your IPv4 connection uses CGNAT.

The solar panel needs to be used with a charge controller. Connecting it directly to a battery will overcharge and damage the battery. Charge controllers typically don't like the battery being disconnected while the solar panel is still connected, so don't connect it to a switched outlet.

Why? Phones have been thin enough for a long time that you have to put them in a case just to get a good grip.
