Good god. I feel bad for them on two fronts.

1. That’s a brutal way to die and at a young age.
2. They were so delusioned by religion that they put themselves in danger to spread around ancient mythological texts to random people.

In no way is religion worth the events.

This is how all capitalist markets progress, which is why I get annoyed when folks try to talk about this as though it is hypocritical. There is nothing hypocritical about a capitalist attempting to stifle innovation and competition for the advancement of their own personal wealth. This is what capitalism is about.

China of today is capitalist in the same way the USA is, with minor differences. Major corporations owning almost everything with government backing and influence.

Listen man. If this is the thing that is gonna kill me, I’m looking.

His supporters would end up at the ballot box either way. They are dedicated to the brand.

Ok you defined this way better than I did.

The definitions are tricky based on how you read them, but no. Your role in society is to perform labor (I’m assuming), and the fruits of that labor are then forfeited to those above you for a wage. Thus they have the capital and would belong to the “capitalist class.”

Respectfully, punching down does nothing but make people who are suffering feel worse. Posting here about how much better you have it than us isn’t helpful. We already know how messed up it is here.

There is no double nat. Passthrough mode has worked as expected for me. The one issue I have is that the RG will maintain firewall states, so it limits you to the RG hardware for those states. I have a pretty large home network though, tons of devices, IoT, etc, and it has been stable.

Latency seems decent. I have an AT&T fiber 2gb symmetrical connection and a ping to google from my Netgate pfSense machine is around 10-15ms.

I used Plex for years, and it is the superior product (if you pay) compared to Open Source alternatives. However, after seeing Plex’s recent incentive pivots and looking for investors I jumped shipped to Jellyfin. The thermometor of enshittification is indicating that Plex is on its way out.

Folks who haven’t looked at alternatives yet, do so now.

I have the same Residental Gateway. Using pfSense+ on my end. The BGW320-500 is fiber capable. I assume you’re using fiber? If so you cannot hook it into ONT because the RG is the ONT. In my case I get raw fiber into a PON module that hooks into the RG. Best you can do in this case is set the RG to “passthrough mode” via web UI (192.168.1.254).

If you have a different setup that is not fiber maybe you’ll have more luck with a bypass, but I think you will need the RG regardless for auth: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/recipes/authbridge.html
