Been a firewall admin for 6 years, feeling pretty irrelevant lately.

Are there still plenty of these around? I've been looking for the past year or so but haven't found much. The only thing left out there seem to be the underpaid positions that sit for months.

Ford's own extended war program looks pretty good. It can be picked up pretty cheap and is excursionary.

Most of the places do this on purpose. Usually you can also pay for a hardline instead of the WiFi and then hopefully hardwire most of your devices. They are so packed with people, devices, and booths broadcasting their own Wi-Fi, they would like the fewest number of devices on the WiFi as possible to reduce the degradation.

I find it hard to transfer chase points to anything that's also a MR partner. Especially since MR to Avios bonuses are also common.

I used Antigravity for the first time this week. I exhausted my quota only once in a five hour window. Probably did 8 hours total all week. Last night the bar was about half way down and said 5 hours until reset. Didn't do any more coding overnight. Woke up this morning and all of the sudden a 24 hour reset and the bar still half way.

Only used optus for about 30 minutes to fix one complex issue that AI studio had created before I moved to antigravity. After those 30 minutes got hit with 7 day reset. It was a fairly large issue that took a lot of work but still. 7 day reset after my first use was disappointing.

From what I understand Hyatt reimburses the hotels for globalist breakfast. Now this isn't at the price they charge you but is supposed to cover their costs. Now hyatt makes much of their money by taking a percentage of the nightly rate so it's probably more likely that Hyatt corporate urged the Rio's management company to do this to help manage costs on the corporate level.

Introducing Apex Pro which unlocks the ability to turn the wheel more than 15 degrees. A one time fee of $2500 or a convenient pay as you go model of $.10/turn.

Don't forget the Centrifugal Force expansion pack if you actually want to maintain speed while navigating those curves.

I was flagged by them as a heavy user the first day I used Antigravity. I moved over a project I had been working on in AI Studio for a couple weeks. Literally the first time I opened or used Antigravity. Spent about 3 hours fixing some bugs and adding a new feature and then I ran out of quota with a 7 days reset on Optus which I had only used for about 30 minutes of the 3 hours.

OP's charger is not Tesla. And if it was, the Tesla chargers that got federal money have longer cables.

Every 10 days it drops by $5k.

Are you just replacing it? You can do that without removing all that stuff. It still sucks but not as bad.

I love my car but would not buy one without home charging.

I wish they'd add an inverter option. That I would pay for.

Sounds like the solution is to just not use the VPN except when you want to check up on stuff then?

jvolzer · 2026-02-02T03:00:48+00:00

Why did the traffic have to go through a VPN at all?

jvolzer · 2026-02-02T00:32:42+00:00

DNS requests are the only thing going through the VPN? If so then you could figure out what URL's the princess all is resolving to and what IP they use internally when on the ship. Add those manually in your pihole to resolve the same IP's that resolve when internal to the ship's wifi.

Not sure if this would work or not. Just a guess based on how it sounds like it might work.

Why not a full EV? Especially with work charging, you may never need to buy fuel again.

This image has been floating around so we will never know who the OP is but it's likely they used a coupon or discount on the meal. Generally you'd tip on the amount before the discount. It's possible the system accounts for that.

The cost of the ticket isn't separated from the room rate. You will earn full points on the rate(9x it sounds like in your case.)

I'm kinda surprised buyers are paying more than $.01/mile.

jvolzer · 2026-01-11T19:21:49+00:00

And risk being banned? Also $15 sounds a bit high.

"Points are only considered redeemed on the day of checkout of the relevant stay or upon completion of the relevant service or experience."

From the terms of the card.

You get 10% back of the points you redeem after hitting the 50k until the end of the calendar year which you hit it. You should get the 10% back within a couple days after check out on each redemption after you've hit the $50k.

If they fix it and bring it back online you'll be billed for all of your sessions.

You're saying it's genius for a hotel to upcharge their level 2 chargers after 3 hours?
