If you are like me and don't want to keep messing with the router, then Firewalla Gold 1Gb [1] or Gold Plus 2.5Gb [2] should be good for a home router.

Docker can also be used. Don't get the SE or other cheaper versions, they use ARM chips. Gold/Gold Plus use x86.

Additionally,

1. Your car is easier to repair

2. It is easier to find mechanics for repair

3. You get the treasure trove of pre-existing repair videos/guides in case something goes awry and you want to DIY.

no-reply··on KC archbishop clarifies wine validity norms
As far as "halal", there have been shady operators doing self-labeling. [1] There are also companies that do not follow the halal process completely/properly but still label themselves as halal. For example, the animal (cow/cattle/lamb/camel/...) has to be slaughtered from below the neck by a Muslim man by hand while making the animal face a certain direction and also reciting prayer.

What do these companies do ? They have the prayers on speaker and a robot/machine that slaughters the animals. Is it halal ? No. But there are some agencies who would gladly give you a "halal" certification for some money, and now you are certified halal.

"Halal" word in Arabic just means permissible. In the food context, we look for halal (permissible stuff, not logo) in not just meat, but also any product that contains animal by products/byproducts, like cheese for example. Microbial rennet is okay, animal rennet not so much. We usually avoid eating factory made food that contain animal products/byproducts. If it is something that can has vegetable and animal sources, then we check the ingredients/labels to see if something is specified. Sometimes they clearly specify vegetable source. Otherwise if source is not clear, or if not sure about the certification agency, we either look for a kosher label on that (if it contains some animal products/byproducts) or manually call the company and ask away any questions. If both of those are not possible, we look for something else.

no-reply··on Gandi.net – Pricing Update
I think on porkbun they explicitly tell you that some domains like .com do not have the option of enabling WHOIS privacy. So more likely this has something to do with the registrar and not gandi themselves.

Agree. Had to work part-time jobs for two years before I could get a contractor to give me a minimum wage IT job. Yes, I am a first generation immigrant, but I guess covid had a lot more to add to my story than yours.

no-reply··on Show HN: Great Books Homeschool beta program
"Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" is a book without much facts or evidence. Other books by the author would likely be somewhere around. So, not a great book, but more like a story book.

Though I assume they just slapped some book covers on the website in hurry.
