What are some good options to consider if I want to build/run a custom router+firewall with pfsense/opnsense? I currently have my ISP's modem and router boxes but I want to put the ISP's router in bridge mode and set up something custom to user with my managed switch to finally get vlans set up. I'd like to have at least 8 1g rj45 ports, but having 1 or even 2 SFP+ ports would be fantastic. Thoughts on harware?

>>107830261I liked them when they were the underdog but now that intel is going belly up they're going full retard on am5 pricing and it's kind of annoying. They also flat-out refuse to make any aggressive moves with nvidia for some reason, I'm inclined to believe that they have a gentlemen's agreement with them.

What’s the proper way to measure your dict in bytes?When you size up a dict, do you care more about how wide it is (number of entries) or how deep it goes (what each one holds)?And when you need to unload the payload, do you dump it straight into a buffer, stream it somewhere else, or flush it to disk?

Why has no big brand succeeded in the e-ink tablet space?Huawei and Lenovo tried and abandoned their productsAmazon has the Kindle Scribe series but it's AmazonBoox has nice hardware and features but typical Chinese brand software longevitySuprenote is mehRemarkable is trying to be Apple too hard
>>107826750Amazon has succeeded bigly in the e ink tablet space
>>107828756Surely a reflective LCD still needs a constant supply of power supplied to it? That's the main advantage of e ink displays, and it's why they are showing up everywhere like supermarket shelf labels
>>107830644yes but it's fuck all, just look at watches and calculators
>>107826750>Why has no big brand succeeded in the e-ink tablet space?reading books is too niche of a market now. e-ink wouldve done numbers in 1995.

>>107827328This keyboard gets mentioned from time to time in /tpg/. Personally I want a 4" thick laptop with this as the base and the display and everything else in the lid with some bigdick hinges to support it all.
>>107827708I've been thinking about procuring a ThinkVision portable display to go with it. I just don't fully have a use-case for it. So I hold off. I prefer to save versus being overly consumerist. I don't know. I guess it's a right tech for the job approach.
>>107827328It's neat but>no numpad
>>107827945I cannot speak to that point. Although, my use of ten key on the shinobi is little. However, I would totally support Tex and procure any modular mechanical ten key unit, in the same ThinkPad style or aesthetic. I've seen a Targus and a Belkin stand-alone ten key, but it would have to match the shinobi. I might be a little consumerist if Tex released something like that.

If you want a tablet and also want to draw, should you get an iPad or a Samsung tablet?
>>107828973I have a tab s9 and while i would still choose it over the ipad (purely from a specs perspective), if you have unlimited budget an ipad pro is better. also ipados has way more and better drawing apps. android has krita at least so it has the most powerful of drawing apps, but the UI hasnt been optimised for android yet.
