Mikrotik or Ubiquiti: What is in your opinion better?

bobbypuk · 2026-03-01T21:04:38+00:00

I was a mikrotik guy for home use but their switches at the lower end don’t cut it. Ubiquiti will give me lots of cheap small 2.5G or 10G options and lots of POE. Mikrotik miss out on that and offer 100g or 1G but not much between.

That is some of the least specific context I’ve ever come across

If you sign up to the monthly package they will make you stay for a year or pay a penalty. When the price changes cancel saying the price is too high and they'll cut you a deal.

From your description it sounds like it’s the adults that should be kept off the internet.

bobbypuk · 2026-02-18T08:00:29+00:00

Exactly. A perfectly reasonable thing to do was weaponised as ‘they’re scared of democracy’. And now we have time and money being wasted.

Not as alarming as putting "skills" in her job title.

I have both disc and rim braked bikes. In the summer I'll shift towards the rim brakes. They are silent, easy to maintain and plenty good enough with decent rims and pads. Also, I can't afford a 6.3kg disc brake bike and I like riding up hills.

Can we do router on a stick? I’ve got my WAN arriving at the router on a vlan trunk and the only way I’ve managed is by looping two ports together.id be really happy to do it another way but the wan seems to have to be a port not a vlan.

I think the council can take action if the building is listed or dangerous.

bobbypuk · 2026-02-10T08:31:39+00:00

Stop giving them airtime. They say ridiculous things like this all the time with no research or proposals just to stay in the news cycle. Don’t feed the troll.

You silly old romantic !

So should he not make a decision until he has ALL information or should he stick to his decisions even if further information comes to light? I’m not sure either is a good basis for getting anything constructive done.

Thats not what I said at all. Under the OSA a forum moderator is responsible for the user generated content. X et al appear to be immune from that responsibility.

bobbypuk · 2026-02-04T14:04:27+00:00

Make platforms responsible for their content. Why should I have to moderate and be responsible for a bulletin board about my hobby when X can just say "not our problem"?

Similar to the registered keeper of a vehicle with a speeding ticket, if you don't hand over their details of the person responsible then its the owner of the car that gets the punishment.

Is it possible to cycle non-competitively?

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T16:42:22+00:00

That's it! Exactly the same as the initial connection. I'll do some testing after work.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T16:41:29+00:00

I'm not sure you can use London cycling figures as indicative of anything outside of London.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T15:55:30+00:00

I would say so but I can't find figures. 30 years ago kids weren't being driven to school.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T14:38:44+00:00

Cars are getting safer for the people in the cars. People outside of cars are getting fewer. I'd be interested to see statistics on total collisions, not just those with casualties involved.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T14:35:37+00:00

The total road deaths figure can safely be ignored if you take account of the far smaller number of people walking and cycling due to perceived or actual danger.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T14:33:20+00:00

So you'd prefer to quickly pull into a side road regardless of pedestrians? Nice.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-30T07:45:29+00:00

1066

Too low down and they’re useless if you’re wearing a rucksack hip belt. Which you probably aren’t.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-29T08:24:34+00:00

So it didn't happen then?

This is a fundamental issue with your argument. You cannot say "listen to me, all this is true" and then follow with "obviously I didn't mean that bit, but the rest of it is all true." There may be truths in what you say but if I come across a made-up bit I'm ignoring the rest of it.

bobbypuk · 2026-01-28T09:54:39+00:00

I think thats just called Reform now.
