How did it turn out?

What do you boycott? e.g. games, music, shows, food

No CEOs or politicians

E.g. ollama/hugging face

This all began when the power went out this morning. I have several wireless routers, a network switch, and a starlink modem/router. Internet comes into the starlink box which has it's own network called 'MyLink'. From the box, it gets split to a network switch, which connects to all of the ethernet jacks and a second wireless router called 'MyLan'. The starlink has a second output that connects to a third wireless router called 'MyLink2'

The problem is I can connect to LAN and ping other computers, but they only operational internet over wifi is from 'MyLan'. It will work wherever I connect it over ethernet. NONE of the other routers has internet for phones or laptops. With the mindfuck of an exception of a smart TV which can get internet over MyLink2! None of the ethernet works for anything other than wherever MyLan is connected. I've tested it several places.

The connected to internet light is on for all routers and I've done a factory reset for all routers except the one that is working. Anyone have any ideas? I'm losing my god damn mind over this one. I remember a few years ago I had to contact my isp to reset my connection from their end. Could that solve the problem?

Not something I believe full stop, but imo there are signs that should there be a bubble, it will pop later than we may think. A few things for consideration.

Big tech continues to invest. They are greedy. They aren't stupid. They have access to better economic forcasting than we do. I believe they are aware of markets for the /application/ of AI which will continue to be profitable in the future. Think of how many things are pOwErEd By ArTiFiCiAl InTelIGence. That's really speak for we have api tokens we pay for.

Along these lines comes the stupid. Many of us have bosses who insist, if not demand, we use AI. The US Secretary of Defense had his own obnoxious version if this earlier this week. If the stupid want it, the demand will remain if not increase.

Artificial intellegence is self replicating, meaning if we feed it with whatever stupid queries we make, it will "get better" at the specifics and "create more versions". This creates further reliance and demand on those products that "do exactly what we want". It's an opiate. Like that one tng episode with the headsets (weak allusion and shameless pandering I know)

IMO generative AI is a dead end which will only exacerbate existing inequity. That doesn't mean there won't continue to be tremendous buy in which will warp our collective culture maintaining it's profitability. If the bubble bursts, I don't think it will be for a while.

I have a Keychrom K7 Pro with brown switches. I like the low profile keycaps and QMK has become a necessity. I am curious about red and blue switches. I understand the difference between all the switches and have keycap testers, which include many others, but I've not had the chance to type on all three.

I'm primarily concerned with how the feel of the switches you use contribute to your typing quality and overall experience. It would be great if you have any input spanning multiple switches.

P.S. I know there are keyboard subs, but I asked the question here as they are not as active
