Cool. Thanks. This might work for what I'm looking to do. What is so cool about the Microtik ones? It was based on a true story.

DD-WRT is open source firmware right? The Asus I linked above runs AsusWRT, which I assumed was a proprietary fork of DD-WRT but maybe I'm wrong about that.

I made up that question because a lot of them are stupid, but every third question on there has someone answering "I don't know" on it.

On a side note. The question and answer section of Amazon is infuriating. Q: Is this router a good modem for netflix? A: I dont' know A: No idea I don't use netflix A: Couldn't tell you sorry A: What is Netflix? WHY WOULD YOU POST ON AMAZON TO SAY THAT YOU DON'T KNOW THE...

If this is true it's probably about Harbaugh wanting to be the GM as well as coach. I hope they don't go that way, Baalke has done a great job with the last few drafts. If it's about money then the 49ers need to just STFU and pay him because if they don't there are plenty of other teams that will.

I have read this thread and I have a basic question. As I have mentioned before, I have a very low data cap and every once in a while I get spikes in downloads that I can't explain and it fucks up my life royally. I have been told that some routers have firmware that can monitor your...

So people who come in and shake their ass for 8 games a year should be millionaires? No one is forcing them to be cheerleaders. If it took 40 hours a week 52 weeks a year to do the job then it makes sense that they would be full time employees but it doesn't sound like it's remotely close to...

It still comes down to "your content is slow until you start writing big assed checks to Comcast and if you can't afford it then sorry you lose". Net Neutrality at its finest.

LOL. Let's ban opinions and research that I don't agree with because that's justice!

Rice in burritos is a California thing.Mission burrito - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If we keep making 2 threads a year we will be out of threads in no time.

Well, this thread is unreadable now, but I will say Rust telling that woman to kill herself was hard core. Also I don't believe either of the guys is a killer.

I guess we're not even pretending that net neutrality is a thing anymore.

The weather is nice in LA, there is a lot to do. The problem is just the traffic. Everything is a long ways away from everything else and traffic is shitty all the time. Just realize that you are going to have to spend a lot of time in your car.

I walked through the Tenderloin alone at midnight once. No one bothered me but I did have one totally insane conversation with a guy who alternated between giving me advice on where to find prostitutes and calling me a racist. I got asked for change like 25 times. I wanted to say "If I had...

Sauerkraut is delicious, especially with sausage.

What the fuck does that have to do with anything? You still just have to pay the deductible. I'm not suggesting that you go without insurance. Again, you misunderstand my post. I'm not suggesting that they should buy their own insurance, just that they should not push for the Cadillac plan...

It's going to be pretty crazy but I think I can handle it.

Some of that stuff actually makes sense. I know two old timers in the last two months that fell and broke their hips, had a hip replacement the next day, and died within a week. I can't help wondering about the motivations there and whether things would have been different with another system...

Double post

You're missing my point. It's not that people wouldn't like that, they just wouldn't pay for it themselves because it is wasteful. I would love to have a cheese whiz fountain in my living room, but it's wasteful so unless someone else is paying for it (or at least I *perceive* that someone...

So you should have to live in a certain area if you want health care? I do think single payer is preferable to fully socialized health care, but it's just because it's only half government instead of 100%. It's just an example of how the government gets shit done (and I say this as someone...

I doubt that anyone cares but I am switching to a different satellite provider (DishNet) tomorrow. Instead of 3Mb and a 17 GB total download cap it has 5Mb and a 15 GB cap with an additional 15 GB that can be used between between 2AM and 8AM. Since a significant portion of my bandwidth use is...

This is part of the reason that I am skeptical of putting the government in charge of a greater amount of health care. The VA is a fucking mess and it's our version of socialized medicine. One of my neighbors who is a navy vet broke his leg a couple years ago and he had to sit around for hours...

I was thinking of the one in North Beach. The Tenderloin is a little more on the scary side than just "gritty".

Population density is helpful, not a a downside. In the US we have thousands and thousands of little podunk towns that still need a hospital. The prices quoted above are skewed by the fact that employers pay for insurance. As a 36 year old man with no notable health problems, I pay $275 a...

Oh I see, very simple. Go ahead and implement campaign finance reform as your first step and maybe you will have a chance.

The one I know of in San Francisco has very convenient access to multiple strip clubs, peep shows, and sex shops.

I am a big fan of photography, but I have to agree that that would be a better thread.

All you really need is a set of dumbells.

I honestly have no idea what I want for health care in the US. There is zero chance of single payer or socialized health care because as Kreugen mentioned, it destroys the health insurance industry and whether or not that is a good thing, the health insurance industry has way too much juice in...

If google is going to build robots to run fiber optic cable to everyone in the US then I welcome our new Google overlords and I will be putting a framed photo of Larry Page up in my living room.

Wherever they're going, it's good news that they are still talking about expanding. Google has a tendency to be a bit ADD on some of this stuff and I wouldn't have been surprised if they just sort of did this half assed and then sold it off to someone so they could go build robots or some shit...

FWIW, the US actually has 3 systems in place for health care. A fully socialized system (the VA for military veterans), a single-payer system (Medicare/Medicaid for the elderly and very poor), and a fully private system (everyone else).

Just trying to help the OP get the info that he's looking for without getting caught up in the whole debate. The Obamacare thread is filled with goodness if you're looking for that sort of thing.

I am rewatching all three seasons leading up to the new season. The books are already fading in my mind and I'm not taking the time to reread all 5000 pages of that so I'm just rewatching and hopefully that will keep me straight on everything.

I think it just makes us non-retards but it's still something to be proud of!

Kreugen is spinning pretty hard here. Just keep in mind that he is pushing a political stance and exaggerating for that purpose. US health care has a lot of serious issues, but I live in one of those states that he is referring to and under no circumstances is anyone told "fuck you, go die in...

That sounds absolutely terrible. I have always been paranoid about blood in my stool. It's all I can do to keep from rushing off to the emergency room every time I eat beets or pomegranates.

Something like pulled pork or green chile is good because you can have it over rice, in tortillas, as a sandwich, straight from a bowl, etc. You can also cook a big ass ham or pot roast and that can make various leftovers.
