  • If you want to cut out your ISP device entirely, you will need to know exactly what setup your ISP has given to you, and then match that with your own hardware. The https://pon.wiki/ and servethehome forums are a great place to start for this.

    If your ISP device has a passthrough mode that you are happy with using, practically any device with two gigabit ports will work for a 1gbps internet connection. I use a https://friendlyelec.com/ device, because they come with friendlywrt preinstalled, but your choice of router software is basically entirely preference based.





  • It’s more expensive, but I grabbed a vero 4k a couple years back and have been really happy with it. They’ve since put out a new model with av1 support. https://osmc.tv/vero/

    It’s just about the best possible dedicated jellyfin client box out there, so I felt it was worth the extra squeeze when I got it. (HDR support even!) It’s all open source though, so support for things like YouTube, netflix, or any other streaming doesn’t really exist in user friendly manner.









  • I appreciate all the work you put into writing about and belittling my experiences. Please reconsider your priorities.

    I’m autistic. More importantly I’m also empathetic; too many people have told me that women don’t appreciate being approached by strange people except in very specific circumstances. It’s not just a person risk vs personal reward calculation. It’s also a risk of how whoever I approach may be affected as well. It’s a calculation of what the reward actually is. Getting a date could be fun, but I’m not so sure it’s worth ruining someone (or several someone’s) else’s evening to obtain it. I’m also very sure that the amount of times I would have to try, in order to learn how to flirt, is much higher than a neurotypical person’s would be.

    Just because you think that learning to flirt with people is a skill worth having does mean it is one I think is one worth having, independant of any of the risks or realities of what learning to flirt might actually entail.



  • It’s a skill where fucking it up has the possible consequence of being labeled a creep, or worse. Makes it a lot harder to get into when participating could ruin your life. Many people have written off flirting / approaching in person entirely because of this.

    Note the “possible”. Fear means people are less likely to do something, not that there is some sort of assessment on the likelyhood of a risk actually happening.





  • The Last Airbender (Avatar) has characters in it who can bend (telekinetically control) the four classic elements using martial arts movements and their minds. Part of the show includes blurring the lines between the elements, such as earth vs metal, or in this case, water and blood.

    Katara, the girl in this image, is using her powers to ‘bloodbend’ Aang’s dick to be hard before he would normally be capable of. It’s a joke in the similar style the one i attached to this post.
