I also have a few Amcrest's and a Duhua (and I also prefer Amcrest). Another cheap brand I would highly recommend is HikVision - their low light (no IR) sensitivity is amazing, I run 3 of my cams without IR and it's like daylight outside during dark moonless nights in places that I can't see 6...

You can set up a User Group on a WLAN network (SSID), and then apply a rate limit on the user group. I've actually never tried it, but just gave it a go: WIthout a User Group: With a User Group that has a 25/25 limit: Seems to work fine. Didn't even need to set up a VLAN. Theoretically you...

Yes, each radio supports 4 SSIDs which can each be on a different VLAN. Here is how to set it up: https://help.ubnt.com/hc/en-us/articles/219654087-UniFi-USW-Using-VLANs-with-UniFi-Wireless-Routing-Switching-Hardware PS: Make sure to set up the Network as 'Corporate' - not 'VLAN Only'. 'VLAN...

Respect! Funny, I also have a 8086 connected to a tape drive. Except the 8086 is a 8086K and the Tape Drive is a LTO-8 tape drive. But I just love the symbolism of the setup!

I can, but they're actually just looking for volunteers. This is probably routine maintenance they need, but now with the virus around this may be a way for them to get someone to work on their COBOL code without having to pay $500k/yr...

I have PepWave in my RV with dual LTE providers. It's awesome but I don't think their failover is necessarily better than UniFi. You always know it when there's a PepWave failover because you have quite a long outage. A lot of the UniFi failovers I only know about because of log entries.

I mean, it doesn't work for a single user. It load balanced traffic from multiple users, not really from one user. I would be willing to put down quite a bit of money to do. Actually failover helps better for that scenario than load balancing. When you load balance, the link it use gets...

My USG has load balancing, so I assume the Dream Machine Pro has as well. It's not really worth it for a single user. You can't e.g. split a Netflix stream or a large download across 2 connections unless the server knows how to handle it - which isn't the case for standard internet services...

Yeah, it's quite a pity of the Dream Machine Pro. Not sure why it has 8 Ethernet ports if they're not going to be POE. I actually preferred the old device model with the Gateway, Cloud Key & Switch as separate devices. A smaller part of the network is affected if something goes wrong with a...

Also important - this only works if you convert to Roth without withholding, and pay the tax in cash. If you convert to Roth and do withholding to pay taxes (not sure why anybody would do this), then it really doesn't matter when you convert.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. South Korea and Taiwan have this under control without any lockdown and very little impact to their economy. Both of them are capitalist. The only difference is they just didn't dismiss this thing as a "flu" when it was...

It didn't greatly exaggerate the numbers. Bergamo had 5 times their usual amount of deaths over the last month. So it could be 20% over-reported at an absolute max. I wouldn't call that "greatly". At the same time it was also under-reported in places in Italy because people who died at home...

IFR -> Infection Fatality Rate. Of all the people who got infected, how many died. CFR -> Case Fatality Rate. Of all the people who tested positive, how many died. CFR is easy to calculate, but not that meaningful. IFR represents the real risk, but to calculate IFR you need to have either...

It's not exponential (do you mean order-of-magnitude?), but it can be off by 5-fold or so in this case. In places that have done full coverage testing like Vo and South Korea, we know the IFR is at least 1%. That means the infection rate can safely be capped at at most 100 times the death rate...

The best number to look at at this point is probably the Bergamo death rate, which over the last 30 days was 4500. The normal death rate there over a 30 day period is 916. So approximately 80% of all deaths is Coronavirus related or at least Coronavirus accelerated. That's with an infection...

Same. Would be a good time to convert IRA to Roth IRA.

It's very true. I haven't left the house since February 29th this year. So it's been about 5 weeks. In 2017 I was working on a particularly hairy problem under a tight deadline and didn't so much as set foot out of the house from July 1st until September 25th - so 12 weeks. 2017 also felt...
