Say I find out my 401k is investing in this. What do I do to get out of the situation? Would I have to completely stop contributing to it (and lose employer matching) or something else?

I do have a 401k but before that I really loved investing on my own and avoiding this stuff. I wish I could have them dump the funds into my own account but obviously that’s not possible.

I can chill with that

Sure I’ll take the bait: You realize you’re posting to a platform largely hosted on Linux machines likely from a Linux-based or UNIX-based mobile device. 🥴

I use Alpine Linux for server-based stuff because it’s so light and the packages are kept up-to-date.

Mentioning latency is how I got their 16 trillion subcontractor salespeople to stop knocking on my door. They wanna bash the local cable company with 11ms ping but have no clue how to address my latency concern. They don’t even know what it is — “wait, that wasn’t in the script.”

Yeah I go through multiple VPN providers for this.

Me: reading Donnie’s writing He figured out casing! Me: scrolls down Oh he went for the caps lock.

Spectrum has actually been my favorite. I have experience with Cox, CenturyLink, Mediacom and Spectrum.

But if fiber came into my neighborhood it would be game over.

I think this is true to an extent but from my experience the network is usually well-maintained (latest DOCSIS, low ping, etc) and the backend seems to support IPv6 but people don’t have a clue how anything works.

I can tell cable installers have no clue how networks work beyond the coaxial cable coming into the premises. Nothing against them, that’s great, but it’s crazy to me that they look flabbergasted when I do a simple ping to check for connectivity.

On top of that, customer service probably gets harassed by people that don’t know anything wanting help for more premises/LAN problems. But they literally don’t know what IPv6 is — that’s like minimum networking knowledge — so even if you’re smart you won’t get anywhere with them.

I’ve actually never not had IPv6 going back to like, 2007.

The problem is the clunky trash modem and/or router they give you can’t keep up. Never use ISP-issued hardware.

Which ISPs aren’t on IPv6? I develop websites used by people in the Philippines which is great for me because typically their home internet has no IPv6 while their phones are IPv6 only. I won’t host on anything that isn’t dual-stack, and is one of many reasons I don’t host on AWS (I know, they support IPv6 now but it’s too little, too late).

Is that the same customer service who doesn’t know what IPv6 is and says I need a business account for a static IPv4 address (which has nothing to do with IPv6)?

Meanwhile a random guy on Reddit six years ago figured out their network doesn’t provision IPv6 unless you get a specific modem that ignores the lack of provisioning and provisions it anyway.

Okay

As a web developer I’m interested if there’s something I can do to block it. I’ve already done an interest-cohort() hack and another that stops Instagram in-app JavaScript from being injected.

I’d love to get a collection of these “hacks” packaged in a Ruby gem.

Edit: I should’ve read this before commenting, I see that you have to fill out that form but list every variation of http/https and submit every domain/subdomain. Easy for me to do, but for a large website? Yikes

Something tells me the people of Louisiana won’t do that

Would you consider purchasing an enclosure like what Yottamaster offer? I do this with a Raspberry Pi 4 and it’s perfect.

Otherwise I’m confused. Are you looking for a hub to power that many individual hard drives?

Well said, pornpornporn

Lol, whatever 😂

Sometimes I want to learn, sometimes I just need to get something done. Why not be able to do both?

I’m using Quad9 as the upstream resolver too with TLS DNS. But before sending off my query I check my blocklist to return NXDOMAIN for tracking/advertising domains (I prefer doing that to using 0.0.0.0 as is common, it also blocks HTTPS queries which is nice.

Have you missed the other comments? It’s pretty well documented that the TV will either find a similar brand TV to connect to (and reach the internet) or as I’ve read, it’ll find an open WiFi network to do so.
