    Images of items I have purchased (except trainers)

    Eek, I had exactly this done around 5 years ago and paid just over £2k which I thought was a lot at the time! Have to admit it was pretty impressive what he pulled off and I felt it was better than having a huge gap in my mouth for life

    So err, What’s Happened to the Princess of Wales?

    Do you have the same beef with every person who manages to obtain private health care or just Kate and the Royals?

    Payraise.. how much do you expect? how much did you get?

    Probably 4-4.5% pay rise 8% bonus Unlikely to find out until late April just before payday I imagine

    The network engineers thread

    Network Engineer here too, 15+ years working at various ISPs on a wide variety of different vendors kit, strangely I’ve mostly managed to avoid Cisco stuff in production networks and kept it more to using their training material for study (especially earlier on in the journey) Plenty of Linux...

    Shamima Begum: Runaway IS bride to find out if she can return to UK

    She’s obviously not right when you see some of the things she’s previously said and willingly been involved in For once I’m actually impressed the government and legal systems are sticking to their guns

    Self hosting bitwarden

    Sorry missed this until just now. The explanation above was spot on - secure wireguard VPN but with an easy to use management layer The magic DNS service from what I’ve seen just automatically resolves the hostnames of your Tailscale connected clients Personally I’m happy with the security of...

    A free Tailscale account could solve this

    Question for the real network specialsts

    It likely comes down to demand and cost at the lower end of the market (which are the devices that don’t have 2.5G for the most part) WiFi 6/6E has benefits other than headline speeds and an AP or router/AP combo that is 2.5G capable would cost more. Big purchasers like national ISPs for...

    Payraise.. how much do you expect? how much did you get?

    4.5% last April, this year is an unknown but I’d expect around 4% again despite inflation being much higher for the past year These increased costs aren’t passed onto customers by the business I work for at present so I can see both sides as to why it’s difficult

    starlink or wireless

    If the other house TTL is in the IP header and is decreased each time a packet traverses a layer 3 hop (router) so that eventually it’s dropped if there’s a routing loop. If it was increased each time it passed a router then it would be doing the opposite of its intended purpose You are...

    starlink or wireless

    What hops do you think they’ll see? OP - I helped a mate do this around 10 years ago and still get bothered about it now so be warned

    Your country needs YOU!

    I was pondering what the hidden motive was in this story since I saw it pop up from The Telegraph and this makes a lot of sense

    What’s the longest non-stop flight you’ve taken - distance or time?

    If that worries you break it up, you could fly UK > Dubai > somewhere in Asia > Aus, keeps the flights a bit more manageable and get to check out some places in between but it depends on how much time you have obviously

    What’s the longest non-stop flight you’ve taken - distance or time?

    I did Hong Kong to Paris once which was around 12.5 hours however it was an overnight flight and I slept the whole way due to being severely jet lagged and hungover (had only been in China/HK for a week so hadn’t adjusted) I’ve done plenty of long haul flights but usually with a stop somewhere...

    UK Gladiators - 2024 reboot

    I really enjoyed the episode tonight, pleasantly surprised. I went to watch it at Sheffield arena as a child in the 90s and it took me right back there seeing the foam hands and the crowd dancing away to the songs etc The gladiators seem a bit more friendly than the characters that were...

    UK Gladiators - 2024 reboot

    The Gladiators probably won’t be allowed to be “enhanced” plus additional health and safety wokeness will probably weaken it somewhat I’ll still give it a go though

    Best Canary island and resort for weather & enjoyable time, Jan 24

    I was in Lanzarote the week before Christmas and the weather was much more favourable than the UK, low 20s in the day and drops to mid teens at night Any of the 3 main resorts there would be fine, Puerto Del Carmen seems to be the biggest but also packed full of Brits/Irish drinking €2 pints...

    Tirana, Albania - has anybody been?

    I went to Albania back in October for 4 days but to Sarande and Ksamil in the south not Tirana, I’d recommend Albania in general based on my experience if that helps Definitely felt more on the up and coming side tourism wise but Tirana may be more established
