TIL people in the outside can die with full HP.

I fail to understand.
Healthy as in “Healthy to eat” ? Because I don’t see it being in working condition when it is out of the place it is made to work in and the blood vessels looking like they have been drained.

I am unable to understand the meaning of “healthy” over here.

Or is there some context in which a dead body is called a “healthy” dead body and that context is being used here?

Damn reasonable people pushing back the Nuclear Apocalypse, the Global Heating Armageddon, return to Dark Ages and all such major fun events/s.

Reading this thread, I kinda feel weird.

When I was a child, I use to take tablets for headache (no idea which ones. I was a child.) and almost every time, the headache came back more intense than before, when the effect wore off.

Later, I started understanding that headaches (and other pains) happen for a reason and it is better to find out the reason and fix it, than just turn off the alarm.

So now, even if I get hurt due to something, I say no to pain relievers. This has even saved me from re-injuring a previous injury a few times.

• Sprained ankle / back pain : exercise and yoga.
• Cramps from exercise: next time do proper stretching after exercise.
• menstruation: I have no idea. never had that. sorry. But I can say for sure, people around me don’t tend to resort to taking pills all the time. Even those that have it hard.
• broke a ligament: definitely don’t take a pill, or you won’t realise if you are about to break it again.

Over here, pain management pills seems more like a last resort and not to be used for something that happens regularly. So, reading about it being treated like cereal, feels pretty weird.

And finally I will be able to use eye protectors when cycling at night.
Right now, it just increases the lens flare and even getting expensive ones will, at most, not increase lens flare.

Also, make sure that all reflectors are turning the polarisation by 90°

That requires the driver to actually care

Depends upon what your are hiding it from.

If the white male is a human and understands your language, maybe you can convince it to hide - in your closet / behind a tree / under a bed / behind some bushes etc.

Me buying Dettol™ Soap and calling it a day.

You forgot the “right now”.

The “speech” as in a separate message, which likely came after she stopped being speechless.

I feel like we can do the same in other places too.
It just doesn’t make much sense for me to buy one of those, considering I don’t expect to be using a copper endpoint anywhere else I go.
I probably will get my own Fiber modem when viable (as in, I get a provider that doesn’t force their own modem on me).

The major Fibre player here, requires use of their modem, of which, even the WiFi password can only be changed using their Android app. Said app connects to the internet and most probably tells their systems the new password to change to (which would of course, be in plain text), which then remotely changes the WiFi password.
Most probably, other major ones do the same.

There are some smaller players (probably Tier2/3 ISPs), which would let us have our own modems after enough effort, so I’d probably go with one of those.

The malware argument is a bit weak

It’s much more than just a bit weak, unless you are somehow continuously monitoring it, so yeah, in most end-user scenarios, it would hardly make a difference to keep it on, even if there were no updates.

Not illegal, but the ISPs are seemingly under no obligation to give you those details. In Germany, there’s the “freedom of routers” embedded in the telco law. So they HAVE to give you everything you need to get your custom router online via their wire/fibre.

OIC, so, same as here. Germany seems to be having pretty well made laws in these cases.

Bridge mode is just using the ISPs router and bridge that into your router. It’s not the same - you still need the ISP’s access device instead of just yours.

Except that it is a layer 2 bridge and I couldn’t connect to the network directly, either way, because their line is copper ^[1] and consumer routers/modems are usually RJ45/RJ11.

Mine is pretty expensive too (at least for me, it is). I just make sure not to fly without a rebuy.

Sorry. I’m addicted to knowledge. I need to know.

you’re not supposed to get this kind of information from your ISP

Wait, do you mean, it’s illegal to ask for it?
In my case, it just depends upon the ISP’s policy.

In fact, with the current ISP, even though they provide their on modem (copper line), it has a pure bridge mode available, which I can connect to my other router and have fun looking at those packets with full transparency and the tech even went ahead and explained to me what I messed up, before resetting the modem for me, when I did use the bridge mode.

Read the title and went: What? They want you to keep your network hardware ON, when unattended, to increase the undetected malware entry opportunities?

Turns out it as their own devices they wanted to push updates to.

I would really prefer to use my own device though and even better, configure it myself after learning how the ISP’s network works. But convenience is what it is.

I’ll probably get one, once enough of its vulnerabilities are discovered and post-mitigation benchmarks are released.
And once I have enough money.

plugin/extension

that seems like the way to go for this
