Really glad I decided to go with a TP-Link Omada network over Ubiquiti now. My TL-R605 router, OC300, HD660s, and 8 port 2.5 gigabit switch are going strong, and I put the whole network together for under $1000.

Well to be fair, you shouldn't accuse someone of something they aren't, or something they didn't do. For instance, it'd be incredibly unfair for me to accuse you of being a jackass for a comment like this, when I know no

Yes. They are. In a place that's owned by their employer. Being monitored like this in your own home is downright insulting.

Haha, wow... my insurance company actually paid for their test for me years ago. I'm tempted to share mine here too, just to see if we both had the exact same results as well.

I sort of want to cure autism so I never have to see posts like this again, but I also don't want to lose /r/wallstreetbets... talk about a catch-22. This isn't sarcasm, by the way; I'm genuinely conflicted.

It's not trolling, it's sarcasm, although with the crippling inability of far too many HN posters to recognize sarcasm, even when its glaringly obvious, I understand why someone might think it's trolling.

In the Ian Fleming novels, James Bond is clearly intended to be in his late 30s / early 40s. The same seems to hold true for all the movies. Bond is not a young man by any stretch of the imagination. He is a world-weary traveler well-v
