I used Sora 2 for about a week when it came out, then never used it again. I might have used the app for funny video generation, but they insisted on watermarking everything and creating a social media bubble for Sora content, which was always a dumb idea. Meanwhile Sora 1, which actually had a cool discovery feed for generated images, was just sunsetted as well.


The OpenAI ecosystem sucks now in a way it didn’t 3 months ago. Claude is ascendant.

Heck, Cisco has a major vulnerability approximately every five minutes, and I don't doubt that USGOV is aware of most of them and doesn't disclose under NOBUS.

The company line is to buy your own router if you need access to other settings, but that's about to become a lot harder.




Me using OPNsense on commodity hardware with an Intel NIC PCI-e card


I actually use UPnP because it makes building direct-connect tunnels over tailscale easier (and my ISP offers symmetrical fiber, but no IPv6, riddle me that), but I monitor it and have some restrictions in place. Most users shouldn't use it though.


Actually my ISP puts IPoE on a VLAN, but none of their techs know anything about it and I had to reverse-engineer it using reddit. Their loaned-out gateway (which is bundled in the price, apparently?) can give you a WAN link for your own router on VLAN 1, but that's another device you have to put in the path. Maybe breaking up Ma Bell wasn't such a good idea, they at least had "One Policy, One System, Universal Service" instead of the hodgepodge of nonsense that passes for telecommunications in this country.


My girlfriend's ISP-provided router let me change the subnet, but not the DNS IPs distributed by DHCP, weirdly enough, and they're locked to the default ISP DNS. (She at least gets v6 though, God Bless American Telephone & Telecom.) I could go through the effort to run a DHCP server on her network, but I'm really only freeloading on her network for my backup server, so I just gave all my devices their own manual DNS servers set to my preference and we're good to go.
