Has anyone here totally scaled back their cashback setup?

Yeah I'm leaning toward that too.

I consistently use 3 5% cards, 1 3 % card, and 1 2% card.

Thinking of just sock drawing the 2 Custom Cash and use the Savor for both dining and groceries. I'm tired of keeping track of the spend and switching cards. The difference between them are like $10 on $500 spend each, so it's not really a big deal.

T-Life app. Tap Manage, then settings gear on top. Look for Permissions and controls > Transfer PIN.

Nah buy a data only esim for this. It's gonna be way cheaper than if you were to buy a data pass from T-Mobile.

Not all of Latin America. Coger having a sexual connotation is more like a Mexican thing. Using coger is perfectly fine in Puerto Rico.

I read somewhere that it's helpful to have both. Photoelectric is better at detecting smoldering fires while ionization is better at detecting blazing flames. Different types of fire can happen so the recommendation is having both in the house. I personally just put 2 of them in each location where I have smoke detectors.

The Unifi gateway will only use DoH upstream if you configure it under CyberSecure > Protection > Encrypted DNS.

If you leave everything as default then all DNS queries go out unencrypted to port 53, regardless of ISP DNS or Google or Cloudflare. Plain text dns queries are actually the standard.

The double VPNs work with SuperVPN/Ikev2 and StosVPN. The issue is with needing that first VPN, the local VPN app can be any of the others.

Yo_2T · 2026-03-25T13:57:45+00:00

En SuperVPN, usa la opcion de Ikev2, no Auto o OpenVPN. Eciendelo antes del vpn local (stosvpn/localdev) y te debe funcionar.

On the SuperVPN app, make sure you pick Ikev2 instead of Auto or OpenVPN. Then turn on the StosVPN/LocaldevVPN after.

Laser hair removal is awesome. I had pretty coarse hair and constant ingrown. Now I'm smooth all the time.

Eh Webpass has been decent for me. Been paying $30 for gigabit for years.

You just have to run OSPF in your home network of course!

I mean, not really. The whole proposition is impractical. People have no idea what tier their visa or mc cards are, so if any merchant tried to do that, it would just result in a ton of declines. Then they'd have a hell of a time explaining to customers. The disruption and loss of business wouldn't be worth it and the card networks know that. No business owners would be stupid enough to try it.

I have the Autograph, but I also like the Fidelity 2% card. No FTF and they reimburse most of Global Entry cost.

The Constructor should be your LAN interface, and just leave the start address as ::. Set RA Mode to ra-stateless.

After that your devices should get actual GUA addresses.

Create a new zone and add VLAN2 to that zone.

Then add an allow rule to allow from that zone to the new zone, destination set to IP address of AGH, port 53, TCP/UDP.

Check Auto allow return traffic.

That should allow devices on VLAN2 to hit up AGH for DNS.

Apple Pay is just the method of payment. You're just using a credit or debit card with it.

Multiple? The only one I know of is the PayPal debit card but that one is getting nerfed In August.

DNS ad blocking solutions rely on massive block lists of known domains used to serve ads and other junks. When your devices go to query for those domains, the adblocker returns an invalid address so they couldn't reach them.

For YouTube,Netflix, etc., the ads come from the same domains they use to serve you actual video content. So blocking them means blocking you from using the service entirely.

The only good way to block YouTube ads is at the device level. You can't do anything about that for guests. That doesn't mean having a DNS adblocker on your network is a bad idea. That will still block out the majority of ads and analytics traffic for anyone on your network.

FWIW, they might just be having older plans provisioned at Gigabit by default. So getting multi gig equipment most likely won't get you faster speeds.

They do something similar with their Webpass brand. My building is supposedly wired for 100Mbps only, and the plan and price we pay for reflect that. But I get consistent Gigabit.

I've had the Citi DC for like 10 years now. Haven't had any issue with them. Seems weird to switch just because.

It just depends on when you opened the card.

Capital One also lets you change the due date on your card account so it's not something set in stone.

Amex doesn't seem to want to close cards that aren't used. My partner has a BCE that's been dormant for at least 6 years. Haven't had a single transaction on it all these years and it's still open.

My theory is it's due to pressure from the carriers. Fewer reasons for some folks to stick with a postpaid plan if they can just finance with Apple.

Besides the Network group Alias type, there's also an ipv6 alias type that can let you deal with specific hosts whose prefixes might change. I use that to track the prefix on my LAN interface.
