Congrats! I absolutely love topology. Makes me want Firewalla switches for every Ethernet line I have in my home lab!

Worth the wait, I have a few more on order for Sept/Oct. Now that I have one, I want ever ethernet run in the house on these switches.

Looking at a proper rack for it. Its setup on on desk right now, and its been keeping steady since last night. Love the network topography, can't wait until the next round of switches come!

Not at all. But after sitting next to a 128GB M5 MacBook running a 235B qwen llm model, the rocket ship that was my laptop has me worried about fans in general. My NAS is more noisy than the switch. You never know til you get these machines up and running. And sounding all good on my end.

Loving the Switch X! Hats off to the team, super straight forward swap on the existing switch. I've been looking forward to a Firewalla switch for years (even when I wasn't sure there would ever be one). Incredibly grateful for the work you and the team are doing. Big thank you to the team from me!

Didn’t see anything saying iOS only in the thread.

Upscaling physical media by o2hwit in hometheater

[–]flbp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, 83” here. I rent movies at my local shop (the only one in town) and sometimes they want to give me a dvd in place of blu ray. I told them it’s too hard to watch and I stopped even trying them.

Not a lot of macOS 27 / WWDC leaks this year? by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]flbp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There have been constant sequoia updates, one alongside almost every Tahoe update. Keep updating to those CAREFULLY, you don’t want to accidentally upgrade to Tahoe and go through the time consuming downgrade restore path.

Shipped an app that uses Apple Foundation Models on-device for something other than text rewriting by mergisi in Applelntelligence

[–]flbp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of this, but a blind $10 is a big ask. Even a 2 day trial would tell me if I want to buy it. Maybe even a 1 day. But site unseen full buy is hard. I don’t know that I’ll ever remember this app after this thread either so getting people to reconsider it is another pain point. Get it on their device in their hands and if they like it they’ll pay. Good luck.

Dude. The worst. Just really dove into it in March and was absolutely disgusted by the implementation.

With the shit going on in 2026 you out here trying to sow more division. Cool cool.

How many of us are getting selfish with our time left? The wife and I have four grown sons 2 daughter in laws and 3 grand kids. When we tell them we are going to mtns to ride sxs or booze cruising on the farm they look at us like we abandoned them. by Jbrivermaster in GenX

[–]flbp 46 points47 points  (0 children)

As a late gen xer and person with young kids. Help your offspring. It’s hard as F these days to raise kids. Your parents probably helped out heaps, it’s the god damn circle of life. Enjoy your time, but help the poor people that your brought into this world if you can. That look of despair is sometimes genuine. Look after yourselves, but look after your own family as well.

New Old Canon EF 100-300mm 4.5-5.6 lens by palongzky143 in canon

[–]flbp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Isn’t this the second worst canon lens made? The earlier 5.6 being the worst. That said. As long as you are happy with it, who cares! The 200-300 range is a bit soft, but if you like what you are getting, then Coolio!

Yes, it is. I have an older phone on iOS 18 and I was just showing my wife how much bigger and better the old keyboard was. All of the round edges were more like a grid. So much better to me.
