I’m a ~/tmp man myself.

Maybe not a service in the typical sense, but setting up your router+server to route your home network traffic through a VPN is a fun project.

My router (MikroTik) supports WireGuard, so I can use it with Mullvad for the whole house—but wg is demanding and it’s a slow router, so while it can NAT at ~1Gbps, it can’t do WireGuard at more than ~90Mbps. So, I set up WireGuard/Mullvad on a little SBC with a fast processor, and have my router use that instead. Using policy based routing and/or mangling, I can have different VLANs/subnets/individual hosts selectively routed through the VPN.

It’s a fun exercise, not sure I implemented it in a smart way, but it works :)

It doesn’t change your point, but he was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice, not for a sex act.

I feel like this person has never had a good salad…

I mean, this is Lemmy—practically everyone here feels superior to folks who use Twitter/reddit/Meta products/etc.

(Only half /s with this one…)

I assume you’re referring to the cuckpdate chair.

Whenever I have a Linux box without Internet I just USB tether an Android phone—if the phone is on WiFi then it uses that (not cell), so it’s basically just a WiFi adapter that’s almost universally supported. (I think it NATs, so in some circumstances won’t work, but good enough for most emergency use cases.)

I would recommend PoE security cameras. You probably want support for RTSP / ONVIF.

I have some Amcrest cameras talking to Frigate. It is completely local—cameras on a separate VLAN that can’t talk to the Internet, footage is recorded on a server running Frigate. Works very well for me. No vendor lock-in is also nice!

Carnauba wax would like a word…

IIRC Waterson got a lot of flak for this, as there’s an implication that parents who adopt don’t love their kids as much. (Recollection from reading one of his annotated collections, could be wrong.)

I have this sort of thing aliased, with some added --include flags to filter file type (e.g., only match source/script files). Super useful!

So, was it Griffiths, Purcell, or Jackson that got you?

640k 780k ought to be enough for anybody…

I know right? What a poser!

Born to late to explore the world.

But not the ocean!

A professional degree is historically different from an academic degree though. Math, chemistry, physics, biology, computer science—these typically produce (well compensated!) professionals, but they are not professional schools.

I am professional; I get paid to do the kinds of things that I did in grad school. But afaik no one would say I hold a professional degree.

All of this is besides the point of course—our student loan system shouldn’t disqualify people based on these sorts of semantics.

I was interpreting the quoted text as encompassing all engineering fields, e.g., EE, mechanical, computer, etc.

If that’s not the case and this is for specific professional engineering degrees then yep, I certainly agree with you.

This is actually the one that I would agree with (edit: see below), if the difference is “professional” vs. “academic.” I certainly wouldn’t call a natural science degree professional, and if you’re in a research institution studying some form of engineering I’d probably put you in the same category. Just my experience/opinion though (and the rest of the exclusions are super stupid, I agree).

Edit: from the replies, this is referring to Professional Engineering; in my corner of the world, “Engineer” is an overloaded term that generally means electrical, mechanical, software, and sometimes computer engineer. My comment was referring to these engineers, who are rarely licensed and study alongside scientists in school. I completely agree with parent in the context of “professional engineering” (I mean…it’s right there in the name…).

If you search around you might find free ones. Oracle has/had a free tier (though it’s Oracle, so…).
