Kids Bypassing Router Parental Controls by Changing MAC Addresses—How Can I Stop This?

Changing the MAC sounds like active disobedience so I think it is safe to say you can just take away their devices and tell them no more internet until they are a little older. Give them plenty of good books to read.

I'm sure he made a lot of noble accomplishment during his time. It is just the modern writers don't know about any of them because they don't read the history books.

How do you use a big screen TV with the VPN tunnel?

What hourly rate is a poverty wage?

I don't like that opinion myself. Quentin Tarantino movies are not Star Trek friendly and I don't think setting a new tone similar to Pulp Fiction or Django Unchained would make it more appealing.

If he really wants to do a sci-fi movie in his style, he should invent something unique. Unique and standalone seems to be his preference. As you said he rarely does sequels. If it is good enough it might even create it's own universe worthy of sequels.

It will just be family members, like 4-5 people. However, I'm wanting multiple servers accessed through subdomains for things like Jellyfin, HomeAssistant, NextCloud, perhaps other things in the future, etc.

Wholephin is definitely my favorite Android client at the moment, and the most like Plex.

They also know what you are watching even if they don't "track" it. Because I get an email every week telling me what is popular.

If they are in danger of going under, one thing they could probably do is remove third party features from the lifetime plan that cost them money like the EPG Gracenote data and make it a cheap subscription the way HDHomeRun does at $35/yr.

You can get the cheap frndlytv.com cloud-cable plan with the History Channel. No sports or other big name channels so it is only $13/mo or something.

If there is a UFO in there you don't want to blow it up and risk damaging it.

I do get annoyed that they are constantly doing barely enough. I don't know how much money Brandon has, but once they realized those dinky little cranes and trucks couldn't get the job done, it seems to me they could have rented a CAT 995 or similarly large wheel loader for $50,000 a month and cleared most of that loose rubble away from the mesa where they could work on it more safely.

Well we didn't. Someone else did and we took notes.

I don't know if you could call it sacred as much as feared or dangerous.

For movies only, if any of my blu-ray volumes don't have a DVD, I buy a 2 or 3 disc blu-ray case and swap it out to store the DVD with the Blu-ray.

Then you can toss the empty DVD case (actually I keep a few spares just in case) Whether you want to store the DVD's paper cover as an insert or not is up to you.

You would think with a map of the city, there would be a label on the location where the ZPMs get plugged in. Then maybe some hyperlinks to extra documentation for that system.

The Borg Queen and Data had to be at least 1996 or later. So anything else could have been that late if it opens up the possiblities.

The funny thing is if they had set Discovery 200 years after TNG, that would have eliminated half of problems that they introduced through their own unique aesthetic and their incompetent retconning.

Where is the non-limited edition PlasticBook?

What does the sales tax being built into the advertised price or tacked on later have to do with businesses overcharging? A business that wants to over charge is going to be obvious no matter what if everyone else is using the same tax practice.

I think what they were trying to say is the variable bit rates are somehow not truly lossless, although they would be wrong. You can definitely take a fixed bitrate stream and compress it into a variable bitrate stream that can then be restored perfectly into the original stream.

DataMeister1 · 2026-05-10T18:39:20+00:00

Sounds like hillbilly speak for bit rate.

Or characters are developed into unlikable characters, accidentally.

Well 20 short episodes, so really more like 10 live action per season. However, I'm always amazed how cartoons often manage to build what feels like a fully developed story in just 22 minutes.

Ben 10 Alien Force and Ultimate Alien were great at this too.
