  • I have other issues with opnsense lately but it has some sort of bufferbloat mitigation that seemed good enough. On the 1000mbps from isp I get 0ms latency increase at the expense of like 100mbps, or 0ms average with some spikes with a 50mbps loss. Can it be done without any download reduction?


  • How is x86 openwrt? I’ve been on opnsense but my APs are openwrt and maybe I’m remembering wrong after a long time of not touching the management page but I could have sworn it used to detail what rate cables connect at and it doesn’t seem to any more without unrememberable shell commands, and at some point my lan domains stopped working, among other minor annoyances I could also swear are new since my absence.


  • Man it doesn’t even feel like that long ago that my mind was blown by 100mbps. Also blown over how I just made a bunch of cat5 (not e) patches for my brother’s brother printer and other non gigabit devices and he mixed it up with the 6a and connected the computer and it seemed to actually work at 2.5gbit. Still put the proper one in though as I can’t trust that and wpnt always be around to babysit it.

    One vote for mini pc router with poe wifi ap. When I first set it up I had a tp omada wifi 5 and switched to a yuncore/kuwfi wifi 6 ap flashed with openwrt and I didn’t even have to touch the router config, although I did so the new ap would get the same ip as the old one.

    As a path to ease in I was also considering keeping whichever of my older tomato and openwrt routers was more powerful processor wise with the wifi off and using the standalone APs as an upgrade to wifi5/6, but the used pc with 2.5gbe and 10gbit sfp+ came into my possession cheaply so I went for it.

    PC router has opnsense though. I haven’t tested x86 openwrt. I also got it cheap because the sfp nic didn’t work, warning of checksum error but I fixed that using intel eeupdate (have to pirate/have nda breaker friend) on a portable windows 10 install.







  • 3d print plastic is mostly the same stuff as any other plastic with the same name. Any additives to make it print better are probably also found in your other gadgets or clothes and even food. If you don’t already have as much microplastic in your blood as the rest of us, then I want to live in your town.

    Now fiber infused filaments absolutely do leave shit embedded in your skin and dog only knows if you can ever shed it.

    Anyway, I don’t know anyone that is actually selling, but one of my friends modified some 3d print models of a dactyl variant to be machined out of a block of aluminum and its really damned nice. Premium but still diy…





  • what model are you printing? if it has the cad for adjusting tolerances, print a few to find the loosest one that will hold to some moderately aggressive typing and you should be fine. If its too tight it can be hard to get them off depending on how beefy the stem hole surroundings are. I only really print abs so I don’t know about pla specific but I did a set for a friend in sparkle orange and months in all I hear about them is how much he loves them. I thought they looked kinda mediocre to be honest though, I could have tuned printer more before committing to the whole set. Bambu you probably don’t have to worry about that from what I’ve heard though.

    edit: I somehow missed that you mentioned the model right at the beginning…



  • Dunno about him, but for me I forget to update it and then when I remember it can’t update because its so out of date it cant resolve something or other, and I end up having to just reinstall the latest version and jump through hoops to get the users files to show up, and then one time before as well as the most recent one that made me give up database problems occurred and I don’t know how to database.






  • Thanks for the vid. It makes a lot more sense now. I had it in my head to orient it 180 from correct. I keep forgetting you can outsource 3d printing too. I could see doing fdm test fit at home and buying some prints for the finish. I even made metal button caps for some of my controllers this way too so it’s kinda funny I didn’t think of it. I really don’t need another keyboard but it’s quite tempting.
