    I fail to understand.
    Healthy as in “Healthy to eat” ? Because I don’t see it being in working condition when it is out of the place it is made to work in and the blood vessels looking like they have been drained.

    I am unable to understand the meaning of “healthy” over here.

    Or is there some context in which a dead body is called a “healthy” dead body and that context is being used here?








  • I feel like we can do the same in other places too.
    It just doesn’t make much sense for me to buy one of those, considering I don’t expect to be using a copper endpoint anywhere else I go.
    I probably will get my own Fiber modem when viable (as in, I get a provider that doesn’t force their own modem on me).

    The major Fibre player here, requires use of their modem, of which, even the WiFi password can only be changed using their Android app. Said app connects to the internet and most probably tells their systems the new password to change to (which would of course, be in plain text), which then remotely changes the WiFi password.
    Most probably, other major ones do the same.

    There are some smaller players (probably Tier2/3 ISPs), which would let us have our own modems after enough effort, so I’d probably go with one of those.



  • Not illegal, but the ISPs are seemingly under no obligation to give you those details. In Germany, there’s the “freedom of routers” embedded in the telco law. So they HAVE to give you everything you need to get your custom router online via their wire/fibre.

    OIC, so, same as here. Germany seems to be having pretty well made laws in these cases.

    Bridge mode is just using the ISPs router and bridge that into your router. It’s not the same - you still need the ISP’s access device instead of just yours.

    Except that it is a layer 2 bridge and I couldn’t connect to the network directly, either way, because their line is copper [1] and consumer routers/modems are usually RJ45/RJ11.

    If it’s C or C++, I get the source from the project’s GitHub / GitLab / Source Hosting thing and compile it for myself.
    For programming languages that I don’t read, I usually use the AUR.

    Also,

    • GoG for games
    • Xilinx website, for that one time, I got the ISE
    • AppImage sometimes
