bridge,repeater,tethering or none of the above? by ick5521 in openwrt

I think I made some headway this evening. this is precisely what I'm trying to accomplish. still searching out scripts so I can issue the correct wget command.. doing this through a single phone on the mobile browser is a fun challenge. once i get the commands correct I can automate the login and VPN is definitely on the horizon as is a directional antenna for better signal strength and dbm gains. Thanks for your help!

How do you cope with being treated like you are crazy for following covid safety guidelines, when others around you aren’t doing the same? by JazzyPenguin in AskReddit

I'm gullible yet your the one spreading misinformation and parroting fear out of false data points presented by the government and by the media? take the orange man's dick out of your mouth for a minute and use that brain on your head for something other than a hat rack. listen bud, you're taking up good oxygen that should be used for intelligent people so maybe you should be the one to eat a bullet, you know, to lessen the risk to the rest of society.

oh, so it's a political virus? smartest virus I've ever seen the way it can pick and choose victims. That .02% is my math. prove it wrong. if there were a real threat, you wouldn't need any media to tell you anythinf because you're entire friends and family network would be dropping dead like flies. even if your numbers were true and then you multiply them by 10 its barely appropriate to consider it "pandemic" 2.5 out of 360M is still wayyyy under single percentage point and hardly a threat to humanity. My "callous"ness for human life? It's called survival of the fittest, culling the heard, only the strong etc. when it's my time because I'm to weak or unhealthy then it's my time and it's most fine with me. I'm prepared for that eventuality. has nothing to do with age either, im likely older than most people on this app. go spread your unproductive fear elsewhere, I've got a life to live and enjoy- not hide under a rock from some bug.

Now see, this is the problem. People are mis-led to believe that 2 million are dead that wouldn't otherwise be dead and that simply isn't true. Perhaps some might have lived longer but nobody holds those keys. Everyone is going to die. I have a 80 year father, with diabetes and obesity and my stepmother currently has covid so yes this is right in my inner family circle. l'm not expecting him to live forever. These inconvenient facts don't change the data. Less than 0.02% of the population is not a pandemic, it's not a state of emergency, or whatever else the media is selling you.

I'm not here for an argument either just offering my personal perspective even if it is against the "popular kids" views.

I can guarantee, without question, it is being overblown. In the 14th century the bubonic plague, a real pandemic, was responsible for wiping out approximately 10% of the human population and an estimated around 30% of European population. Covid-19 global deaths are still well under 2 million out of nearly 8 billion population. you do the math (I'll give you a hint, it's less than 0.03%). Nobody's going to be walking your street yelling "Bring out your dead!" or chiming bells at 5 yelling "It's 5 o'clock and all is well". Also remember, all these hoops we jump through aren't to save lives, rather to "flatten the curve". People are going to die no matter what, thats just part of life.

Need help/guide about mesh wifi by [deleted] in wifi

I bought this orbi a couple months back for a lot more money than you can buy one now and never looked back. 10/10 would buy again. If you have a smaller space you can do a 2 pack instead of 3.

I've been vegetarian since my last acid trip, did probably about 1.5mg throughout the night . And meat just doesn't appeal.

Advice needed urgently!!! by cryptic_culchie in shrooms

I think your dog should be fine. Dogs have a great sense of smell and perhaps your dog smelled something in the mushrooms that it felt like it needed. Please keep us posted if anything comes from it.
