pfSense = Firewall and router system based on FreeBSD. Has both open source and commercial versions. Built for SMB to Enterprise uses. Extremely powerful with all of the bells and whistles you’d expect from a professional firewall product.

OPNSense = Basically pfSense with a different UI. It’s a fork of pfSense. Much of the same capability, but is built by a smaller company.

OpenWRT = Replacement firmware for embedded devices (as well as x86). It’s open source WiFi router firmware that runs on tens of thousands of devices. Many vendors will even base their custom firmware on OpenWRT and put a different skin on it (GL.iNet, for example).

If they’re providing IPv6 to you, port forwarding shouldn’t be necessary most of the time for online gaming.

Are they allowing UPnP upstream?

If you’re getting a /64 from your ISP via DHCPv6, you likely need to send a prefix hint. I’d guess /60. Then you’ll have multiple /64s to work with on your inside interfaces.

Who is the ISP?

If you’re allocated DHCPv6-PD with a subnet, you don’t use a relay.

Prefix ID of 0x1 means “Use the first prefix available in the block as a /64 for the LAN”. Essentially your ISP probably gave you a /48, /56, or /60. The firewall is giving prefix IDs to all of the /64s you can fit inside of one of these and allocating them numbers 1 through whatever. Each LAN you have can have its own prefix ID. A /60 has 16 /64 networks that you can subnet it into.

If purchasing isn’t ownership, piracy isn’t stealing.

Host your own Wireguard endpoint on any cloud provider. They give you elastic IPs that you can create 1:1 NATs for your hosts. Maybe not quite as clean, but effectively the same thing.

The SATA controller on the motherboard. The thing you plug your SATA cable into.

You know the old rule:

Pick two.

Define your priorities. Lol.

Vertebral subluxation isn’t a thing. Chiropractors made it up. You might have had a dislocation, but subluxation is oogy boogy words.

Chiropractors DO have some evidence that they can provide short term, immediate pain relief for back pain. However, physical therapy and exercise after an adjustment is necessary or you have to see a Chiro forever.

Also a PT or DO can do the same kinds of manipulations with an actual medical degree.

Anything sous vide (if yours has a sous vide button). You can use ziplock bags in Leiu of a vac sealer. Chicken or steak sous vide and then quick seared in a hot pan for color is the best.

Olive Garden style Chicken Gnocchi soup (dozens of copycat recipes online). You can buy pre-packaged gnocchi or make it yourself. Get a loaf of French bread to toast cheap at the grocery store and it’ll blow your mind.

Basically any Chili recipe can be made 5-10x faster pressure cooked. No need to simmer it for hours.

Use it as a rice cooker. Pressure cooked white rice tastes like Chinese restaurant sticky rice and take 10 minutes. Get a box of frozen orange chicken from Costco and you’ve got Orange chicken over rice in about 18 minutes. Or cook some refried beans, brown rice, and fried eggs for a quick breakfast. Nothing beats a salt and pepper runny yolk egg soaked into rice.

Hard boiling eggs you mentioned already, but if you like egg salad it’s a great way to make easy peal boiled eggs for mashing into egg salad in the fridge.

Those are just a few things I use mine for ranging from moderate to simple.

Indeed

Instant Pot (on sale): There is legitimately so many things you can make in these. Many of them do sous vide too, which is one of the best ways to cook meat.

Powered ratchet: For anyone who works on their own vehicles, a cheap powered ratchet is a godsend. I bought one for oil changes and car repairs and it’s my most used tool in my bag. I’m mad I spent so much time without one. Walmart’s Hyper Tough brand powered ratchet is $40 and holds up very well. Extended reach one is often on sale for $50-55.

E-Ink reader: Another often on sale item. If you have someone who loves books, having an entire library in your pocket with a built-in backlight for night reading that’s also easy on the eyes is a great thing. Coupled with Calibre and some…sourced epub files…and you can read a lot for free.

Vacuum sealer: Never have freezer burned stuff again. And keeps things fresh in the fridge longer. Also works great for sous vide for the above-mentioned Instant Pot.

The middle east has been fighting for thousands of years. Religion is a helluva thing.

Nice. Thanks!

What is this? A usenet place?

Similar, but without the random kids yelling in the background.

What book tracker do you use? I’ve been looking for a good source of eBooks.
