  • Sandwiches are eaten like a typewriter.

    I’m so confused. You pivot your elbows and smash the sandwich into your face like the letters hitting the page? You take lots of fast, noisy bites like the sound of typing? You nibble the top piece of bread from left to right, then the filling from left to right, then the bottom, going ‘ding!’ in between?









  • Have a look at the Bananapi options, especially the R3. (Or the R2, it’s a bit more mature)

    It’s a very capable single board computer with onboard managed switch, including SFP cages. If you want, you can buy antennas and utilise the wifi 6, or get a dedicated access point.

    PFsense, openwrt, et al all have images. I think some people also run the mikrotik OS on it. It’s powerful enough to run as a hypervisor so you can chop and change between all of these if you want.

    It gets bonus points for accepting 5G modems for failover.







  • I’ll tag onto this- not because I think my option is better, but because it’s a complimentary thing that hits a lot of the same points in different situations.

    My bike has given me joy, fitness, new activities, and new friends. When I didn’t have a car it got me to work, gatherings, shops, etc. The enjoyment of riding got me out exploring nature around where I live. I’ve done multi-night bikepacking trips. I’ve met friends on rides. I’ve made new friends at work when we discover we both ride in sometimes. I chat to people at the bakery about their bikes.

    All that, with a side effect of keeping me healthy and fit.
