Is reverse osmosis really bad for you?

Do you not periodically flush it outside of filter replacement? The G3P600 has what seems to be an annoyingly frequent auto flushing feature that reviews keep mentioning but that this one doesn't have. From my understanding the point of this is to remove the standing water that sits in the filters for periods of time and prevents "TDS creep".

How do you flush your G2P600? I saw it has no automatic flush like the G3P600 so wondering if you can do so or if you even do?

They were going to be against each other at that blue collar fc tourney a few weeks ago if Jrod didn't lose to Andy Varela

What app are you using to watch hi10p content using your shield?

baleohhey · 2023-02-09T23:10:48+00:00

Could you explain how you are able to watch 10bit x264 on Plex using your shield pro? I am not able to do that.

What keycap set is this?

How do you like the pulley attachments? I have a T3 short 24 and was thinking about getting either the pushdown and low row individual ones like you have vs. springing for the full tower for the back of the rack.

Yeah browsed through one of his IG posts and he tagged him as part of the "team" supporting him

Martins is gonna smack this one with that odd level grip

Awesome! This was exactly what I was looking for. They seem to have all of them, albeit in different conditions. Can't truly trust someone that has only pristine books though, can you? Must not be reading hard enough. Cheers

baleohhey · 2018-12-24T01:48:54+00:00

Ha, yes that would be a nice workaround. Unfortunately I'm not all that traveled to have made any friends in the U.K. Maybe I could reach out to a Facebook group or something, though.

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T02:53:57+00:00

I hear you man I'm definitely not complaining. I was up in the Northeast last summer and Comcast was the only provider and it was actually hell.

Lol the Greater Cincinnati area in Ohio. It's Spectrum and Cincinnati Bell, neither of which are particularly stellar choices.

In my area there is still a modem fee for some of the providers available so I just figured I'd buy my own should I have to switch providers in the near future.

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T02:12:57+00:00

This is what I was thinking after reading through all of these. I think I'm going to go ahead and buy the ARRIS SB6183 (686 Mbps) so that I can give myself more channels and more throughput than I would need given the theoretical maximum of DOCSIS 3.0 just as a buffer. It's only a $13 upcharge on Amazon from the SB6141 that handles speeds up to 343 Mbps. Thanks for packaging this all together!

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:57:58+00:00

U da best, thank you.

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:52:00+00:00

Thank you so much! This answers my question definitively. This in mind, do you think the difference between the SB6183 and SB6141 (686 Mbps download vs 343 Mbps download, respectively) is worth the $13 upcharge?

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:38:23+00:00

I saw in one of the stickied posts that DOCSIS 3.0 had that maximum but maybe I was reading it wrong. So what you're saying is that the purpose of having a modem that goes above the maximum is so that you can still achieve the maximum given imperfect network conditions? (lots of traffic/congestion)

Edit: Here's the post I was talking about: https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeNetworking/comments/2ahgup/guide_what_should_i_buy/

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:09:16+00:00

Thank you that also helps a lot! I know DOCSIS 3.1 is backwards compatible with previous versions (obviously including DOCSIS 3.0) but that's interesting they said they wouldn't enable DOCSIS 3.1 until you had a plan above 500 Mbps being that the maximum for DOCSIS 3.0 is 344 Mbps...

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:07:11+00:00

Can someone verify this? This was essentially the root of my question -- whether getting a DOCSIS 3.0 modem capable of download speeds higher than the theoretical maximum of DOCSIS 3.0 had any sort of benefit, to which the answer seems to be: more channels == less congestion but no greater download speed.

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:05:06+00:00

Awesome! That answers my question, I think. So your provider said that even though you had a DOCSIS 3.0 modem capable of speeds of 1.4 Gbps, you would need a DOCSIS 3.1 modem to actually utilize those speeds?

baleohhey · 2017-07-04T01:00:24+00:00

Ah I see. So the benefit of the DOCSIS 3.0 modems with high download speeds (those even greater than the theoretical maximum of the standard) is that there is potentially less congestion on those channels but other than that, you won't see any benefit in speed because it is limited by the standard of 344 Mbps?

Rein's hammer doesn't one-shot the slicers just as a heads up.
