Depends if and where there may be something funky. If it’s just insecure default firmware, then yes. If it’s some kind of low-level vulnerability that can be remotely exploited, no.

If there is something to this, I’m leaning toward the former.

Welp, there (probably) goes my main source of OpenWRT hardware. Ugh.

Also, assuming there is anything to this (I’m taking it with a huge grain of salt myself), is there any reason to suspect that replacing the firmware with OpenWRT wouldn’t address the issue?

Kroger (grocery store) is doing the same thing this week. They’re doing a 20% off “holiday bonus” discount on a one per-customer basis (20% off your entire order). The catch? Every item in the store is at least 20% more expensive than it was last week.

I do love when the musical number wraps back around to the main plot. lol

Because I couldn’t not hear the song in my head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GF63MLEApE4

But what about the sleaze and the depravity?

It was a very convincing song, Marge.

Da fuq is wrong with you?

And if you’re too hard-hit as an employee, you can always fast to save money.

I’ve just started blocking. This community is about as dry as a bone right now, but the regular memes really stand out when they do come through.

Yeah, lol, nobody looks good in them but there are varying degrees of bad you can have control of.

Ours are about 1.5 inches, square, and decent resolution with (intentionally?) terrible lighting.

My state doesn’t list how they handle that, but it’d be my luck they would and I’d be out the replacement fee lol.

I’m thinking that would actually be the case since you can fully renew it online and they mail you your new one. Until this moment, I didn’t know you could do that online (other than having all the paperwork verified ahead of time).

That’s always been my go-to, and the scab usually sticks around longer than the pimple lol. I’ve gotten pretty good lately at just leaving them be.

For me, it helped that I chose locations where it “made sense” but was also convenient.

I’ve got a big, decorative bowl on a table by the front door where my wallet, keys, etc go. Basically all the stuff I need when I leave the house is there, and I dump them back immediately when I get home.

My remotes, e-reader, laptop, etc are usually on the coffee table. When I’m not using them, they go inside (it’s a lift-top with storage inside).

Just little stuff like that + forcing myself to repeat until it’s a habit.

Me: I’mma just put this right here so I know where to find it

(never sees it again)

I’ve had to make designated spaces for things and always put them there. Took some training, but has been working well.

Someone: Ugh, the recipe is in grams, and I need it in ounces.

Me: Just divide by 28

Them: How’d you know that?

Me: …👀

I’m assuming an envelope of yeast is in no way close to a packet of yeast? lol because that would be too easy.

Ours would deliberately omit things.

The old secret ingredient. I don’t think we had to contend with that, thankfully.

It’s like translating grandma’s units of measurements from her old recipes.

“A smidge of this, three sprinkles of that, and a can full of something that does not come in a can” (The can was her ‘measuring can’ that was some kind of weird size that doesn’t exist anymore)

Edit: After she passed, we threw the can away because we didn’t realize it was the can and load-bearing to most of her recipes. After some best guesses + trial and error, we concluded the can was approximately 7 ounces / just under a cup.

There’s still probably someone out there who’s like “Finally! I’ve been waiting for that to go on sale”
