The Turris Omnia is an open, powerful router that comes with OpenWRT.

Turris adds an additional UI and features beyond that, but the OpenWRT UI is still available and the stock firmware can be completely replaced with OpenWRT if so desired.

It's a bit pricey but has great specs (1.6 GHz dual core, 2GB RAM, 8GB eMMC) and is an excellent device for tinkerers with headers exposing UART, JTAG, GPIO, and more. It has three internal mPCIe ports as well.

I am not affiliated with Turris but just happened to stumble upon a new one at a garage sale a couple of days ago. Lucky find and I'm excited.

"Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?"

Was the next Dropbox breach due already? I forgot to set a reminder.

Whatever. He's a hot dog!

"Unfortunately"? Be careful, your wording makes it sound like you would rather people be legitimately punished for letting the flag touch the ground or disposing of it improperly.

I tried interpreting your comment in different ways and hope what you intended to say is that it's unfortunate that he is the kind of crass person that would abuse this important freedom.

But it's important for us to make a distinction between those that exercise a freedom and those that abuse a freedom. We should be free to criticize or ridicule those in the latter group for the same reason that they are free to abuse it.

I'm confused how I would have written that as well. Coincidental for sure. I think I did have "modern" in the title initially and didn't realize editing left it since it's similar. I dunno.

I speak English and I'm actually old enough to know what modem stands for, unfortunately 😂.

edit: It was autocorrect apparently. It happened again and was almost impossible to detect because of the similarity.

I've posted it online now as well as included a pic of the LEDs lit up through the PETG pipes.

I'll post it to Printables.com soon. I'm not sure how common the brittle plastic issue was but, yeah, there seem to be a lot of variations using this exact same case design.

I haven't seen the LEDs yet since I've lost the power supply, but I've used the same PETG pipe technique a couple of times before and it works great.

Thor tweeted that.

My pet peeve has always been when media controls (like volume) are on the right side of the steering wheel rather than the left.

To me it makes a lot less sense to put them on the right when my right hand is already 10 inches away from another set of media controls (left-hand drive vehicle).

My 2004 Mazda, 2018 Mazda, and 2011 Kia all had it figured out and pretty much used the same layout for media controls and accessories like cruise control. My Ford, however, seems like no thought was put into it.
