IIRC, WiFi on cellphones tends to have power-saving features that cause unsolicited incoming connections to have poor performance and very high latency. I don't know if there are kernel parameters to disable this, but even if there are

In practice, they'll just prescribe a higher dose when that happens, thus worsening the problem. I'm not defending the use of AI chatbots, but you'd be hard-pressed to come up with a worse solution for depression than the med

In other news, a massive spike in BitTorrent traffic has been detected in the UK. Experts are calling the rise "unprecedented".

This has already been tried. During the 1930s to 1950s, amphetamine was available over-the-counter under the trade name Benzedrine, but it was made prescription-only following rampant abuse. By then, it had garnered a significant reputation

Google's Pixel phones are also this way, and the GrapheneOS project takes advantage of this feature.

I find it odd that most states legalize pot before they legalize/decriminalize shrooms. Psilocybin mushrooms are native to a lot more states than cannabis. It's an odd experience to walk down the streets of NJ and see a patch of P

More like most parts of the country! There's at least one species of psilocybin mushroom for most states. The Shroomery is a great starting resource.

I think a lot of Android devices have that; you type # #4636# # into the dialer, and a menu appears. In that menu, you can select which cellular technologies are used.

I've had much better success having fax calls work over VoIP then I have getting data modem calls to work. My best guess as to why is that fax calls have much less back and forth, and as a result, they are less latency-sensitive. Fax c

I used Gandi's SMTP servers to relay outbound mail only (through postfix). For inbound mail, I pointed the MX record to my home IP address, where I received it directly on my postfix server. This avoided my ISP's block on outbound

Gandi is a good registrar for situations like this, you can use their free hosted email, create one email account, and alias all email addresses you'll use to that inbox. Then, change the MX records to point to your self-hosted email s

UPnP for port mapping is such a nice, convenient security hole. There have been a few cases where I have needed to forward a port without access to the router's WebUI and 8/10 times, in a residential setting, UPnP saves the day. I

I've tunneled VXLAN over Wireguard on Linux. In my setup, my WAN's MTU was 1500 bytes, and my Wireguard tunnel's MTU was 1550, with the VXLAN's MTU being 1500. Surprisingly, traffic and iperf3 tests going over the VXLAN

When I took my Schwab debit card to Europe, the exchange rates that I got were identical to the ones posted on Visa's website, suggesting that it's Visa doing the ForEx conversions. A lot of banks do charge a percentage fee on top

I think a lot of enterprise networking gear requires licenses. Meraki APs don't work without a subscription, for example. A long time ago, I once had a Netgear WGR614v10 (802.11g router). Imagine my surprise when I learned that it was

I always found it interesting that Denatonium, one of the most bitter substances known, is structurally very similar to Lidocaine, a local anesthetic that would numb the taste buds. It's just another example of how a seemingly minor tw

I got a COVID test at a local independent pharmacy. This same "Right Way Laboratory" processed the results and billed my health insurance company over $500 per test.

For audio, my all-time favorite format to work with is raw PCM. One time, I had to split a bunch of WAV files at precise intervals. I first tried ffmpeg, but its seeking algorithm was nowhere near accurate enough. I finally wrote a bash scr

Enjoy that price while it lasts and get ready to haggle; the non-promotional rate (found on the "Rate Cards" page linked at the bottom of Astound's website) for your speed tier is $161.99 per month in addition to the Network

Intel cards in particular will flat out refuse to work in AP mode on the 5GHz band due to a poorly implemented regulatory domain check. On the other hand, my generic AliExpress Mediatek MT7612U works in AP mode. If I recall, it was passable

You're absolutely right; I've operated a site-to-site VPN tunnel between two locations (tunnel endpoints were on the routers, and both peers were sharing an public IP address). After a while, Google would associate the IP address

You'd be surprised; I'm pulling 150Mbps on a years-old $40 Edgerouter X (it was on sale when I bought it; it's normally $60) over Wireguard to Mullvad.

A properly designed captive portal can make it harder for someone leaving a small computer in the vicinity of your network and reverse tunneling through it for nefarious purposes. Having to log in every day would disrupt the tunnel and prev

At one point there was a piece of software called deezcloud which exploited Deezer's user uploaded MP3 storage, allowing it to be used as free CDN cloud storage for up to 400GB of files. I don't think it works anymore, and I'

That sounds suspiciously similar to how I used to download large files on a shared 2GB/month data plan. My carrier didn't count incoming MMS messages towards the quota, and conveniently didn't re-encode images sent to their s

It could also be TLS-SNI/HTTP-HOST based. While this doesn't directly address Delta's captive portal implementation, on many TP-Link Omada wireless APs, there is a feature that allows you to create a captive portal, and when
