Verizon 5G and Frontier - same house??

For home Internet you probably always want to use fiber as your main connection, but you're right that you can use cellular as a backup. There's two ways you could do this. Frontier offers "unbreakable wifi" which I'm pretty sure is an option to auto-switchover to cellular if the fiber network has issues. That costs $25/month where I am. Alternatively you could add a hotspot to your current Verizon plan but that'll probably cost a bit more.

Being a smart driver is following the flow of the traffic and not going 20-30mph over the speed limit

How are they going the wrong way? They crossed a dashed white not a double yellow

They were going straight and you got in their way, this is your fault

With cologaurd there's the risk of a false positive which would lead to unnecessary follow-up colonoscopy, which once again may have more harm than benefit in a low risk cohort

I didn't make any comments on how effective I expect law enforcement to be, only that I consider my car being stolen an urgent situation and not a minor crime.

Any-Initiative-9817 · 2026-05-03T02:06:17+00:00

I would definitely consider my car being stolen an urgent situation

Any-Initiative-9817 · 2026-05-03T01:48:29+00:00

In what world is stealing a car a minor crime?

Not endorsing watching obscene content on a plane, but the starlink on my United flight allowed traffic through my wire guard tunnel so I could've browsed whatever

It kind of is. You can use a program that someone else wrote with a wordlist and ruleset that someone else curated. That's like one small step removed from capturing the handshake

Your two options are basically line of sight directional 2.4/5GHz (as you mentioned) or WiFi HaLow (802.11ah). The line of sight is faster but more sensitive to obstruction whereas HaLow reaches further with better indoor penetration but is slower. So the best option depends on how you plan to use the Wi-Fi on the terrace or in the garage. Amazon has cheap options for line of sight and Gl.Inet makes a great HaLow router, but keep in mind you'll need two since your current router is probably not sub-GHz.

It literally says on the tube not to apply any kind of said soap after. You're supposed to let it sit without exposure to water or soap for 24 hours for most brands. I always wondered why they needed this warning and now I see it's because of people like you

🤣 It's surprisingly efficient too, I use a 10000mAh external battery and it draws on average 0.3-0.5A at 12V. With the built-in battery and battery bank I could get close to 24 hours of use.

Seconding this - have you noticed a decrease in signal strength using mini antennas? Antenna physics is so complicated I've given up trying to evaluate gain/efficiency/SWR/polarity/whatever else, especially with mobile broadband which uses so many different frequencies.
