  1. Makes me want to move to Finland

    And a fairly homogenous society, which tends to lend itself toward social stability, including less crime.

  2. Makes me want to move to Finland

    Following the Swiss model of an armed and trained-to-shoot citizenry. Count me in.

  3. O.J. Dead

    Was it Fuhrman? I thought it was someone who tampered with OJ's DNA blood sample and added it to the bloody sock, not realizing that there were anti-coagulant chemicals in the test tube that would show the blood last came from a lab rather than directly from a wound.

  4. O.J. Dead

    Final boarding call...

  5. Are multi-tools still a thing?

    Pocket clip doesn't work for you? I prefer the Sidekick because of the saw. Have a Wingman, but rarely ever use the scissors, so I don't carry it.

  6. Got a seat belt ticket BUT….

    Do whatever is less costly: 1) Pay the fine or 2) Go to court at the appointed date/time, and without admitting guilt, tell the court that you were issued a ticket that does not bear your name or address. And keep in mind, regardless of what the judge says: YOU CANNOT BE COMPELLED TO BE A...

  7. Tie your ladders down in back of your truck and wear your seatbelts.

    It's a lower margin insurance product with lots of gov interference, legal overhead and fraud.

  8. Are multi-tools still a thing?

    I'm a long time carrier of the Leatherman Sidekick. Pliers are good, screwdrivers are just meh. Works in a pinch. My favorite part of the tool is the saw, which is great for taking small limbs and saplings down in the woods. I also like the one-hand deploy capability of the saw or the knife...

  9. Massive bridge in Baltimore collapsed after being struck.

    The ship seems to have lost power a couple of times just before the impact. I'm sure Mayor Pete will be able to explain the whole thing before lunchtime.

  10. Massive bridge in Baltimore collapsed after being struck.

    That's how most such bridges, either steel arch or suspension cable, work. The load of the roadway is carried by the superstructure of the bridge, and transferred to several points where the pylons stand. The bridge looses structural integrity without the pylons. Remove the phylon, and the...

  11. Tie your ladders down in back of your truck and wear your seatbelts.

    Glad you are in one piece. Heal up. Get a personal injury attorney. When you sue the other driver, make sure you account for the loss in ability to care for your wife.

  12. Shooting while Pregnant

    IMHO, not worth the risk, but the expert opinion required would be from her OBGYN.

  13. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    I'm typing this on an older laptop with a Wifi 5 wireless interface. I'm about 8' from an access point (AX10 router, if I remember correctly), which is behind the door of a TV console. Connected to the 5 Ghz network channel. I'm getting 224Mbs down, and 170Mbps up. This laptop can't do much...

  14. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    Yep, hardwire with a 1Gbps ethernet cable to the router will give you very close to full speed of the plan you're on.

  15. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    I have an access point in my basement. It sits in a mechanical room, below a bunch of rigid and flexible aluminum ductwork. The signal from that router doesn't carry much beyond the basement, which is why I have a separate access point for the main level. We built this house in 2018. I ran...

  16. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    Sounds like you are getting reasonable wifi bandwidth for the setup you have. Some variables and very general guidelines: - Devices with a Wifi 6 ("AX") interface will typically perform between 10 and 30% better than devices with a Wifi 5 ("AC") interface. Lots of mitigating factors, though...

  17. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    It's very much depends on how you use the service. The limitations you are seeing are probably the device you posted the results with. Some contribution from the less than ideal Wifi signal shown on your device. If all you ever wanted to do was watch Netflix on a couple of TVs, surf ODT, and...

  18. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    Yes, but they are more limited than mesh systems or access points. The Achilles heel of repeaters is they are typically at least 50% slower than the wireless network itself. They have to receive the signal from the router, repeat it to the client, and then do the same with traffic going in the...

  19. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    Not clear what he needs from the info we have. Mesh systems are great for a lot applications, but it's not useful in certain circumstances. Need to understand the OP's specifics before prescribing a cure for his wireless ailment.

  20. Any IT folks here? We have nearly 800MBPS to the house but in the house the wireless is much slower

    Can you give some model descriptions on equipment in use? How many devices? Square footage of house? Where is router relative to wireless devices? Distance from router to devices? Number and type of walls? Have you tested close to router vs. distant?
