I like my Denon Heos setup: 2 TVs, home theater, receiver in my office connected to my computer and speakers in 7 other locations. Works great with Music Assistant, and doesn’t require a cloud connection. It can pull firmware updates if you want but I’ve blocked all Internet access for those devices with no loss of functionality.

Wow that headline. While it’s factually true I guess, it’s not at all representative of what’s stated in the article. They conveniently leave out that they want a separate deal with Mexico. More decoupling than excluding.

The Disney Vault!

Not so sure about that. It’s one of the hardest failures so far. It’ll probably make lists including Atari’s ET and the Ouya for quite a while.

Yes

The way I understand it is that time itself is altered by gravity and/or velocity. So atomic decay that occurs on a very specific cadence in each reference frame will not occur simultaneously in 2 or more different reference frames that are not in the same gravity, moving at the same velocity. There’s even a measurable though very small difference in the passage of time between sea level and high mountains due to the difference in gravity. I’m leaving a lot out and there’s a bunch of math involved, but i think that’s mostly correct.

If the opnsense interface on the WAN VLAN has a public routable IP address there shouldn’t be a problem with double NAT. Double NAT should only be a problem if they have a crappy ISP that’s using CGNAT.

Edit: never mind, I reread your comment. We’re saying the same thing essentially.

He’s trying to run it on an esp32, didn’t you read the title? /s

Image server mangled by autocorrect? Best I can come up with.

There are plugins for Chrome and Firefox that add that button, but your method is probably better for discouraging the extra filler.

Now I’m just waiting for Netgate to announce an end to CE so I have a reason to move to OPNsense. I’m lazy and it works so I haven’t taken the time to move yet. Weird for a company to EEE their own product.
