@error_bot hello did you automatically start after the host crash?
Edit: I guess not. Why not? Launching as a service should be relatively easy...

I just run it as a regular process with nohup.
When it was self-hosted it was running in a terminal window on my desktop.

If there's nothing to gain from me buying my own device
There is a LOT to gain.
I never have to reboot my router because I can't get to the Internet, or because there is some other weird behavior (like a device can't connect to WiFi, while all the others are fine).
My WiFi is very stable and the signal gets at least twice as far as your "free" router does.
I can use BitTorrent without killing my router.
Also, I don't have to call my ISP if I want to change my WiFi's password.
But hey, your router is free

OpenVPN
I almost had it working. But it couldn't actually talk to the network, despite clients getting a nice fake IP address.
Then I fucked up everything by trying to create a bridge using the same interface I was using as the DHCP server. Apparently you can't configure all the changes in one go, and since it necessitated the removal of the active interface In order to add it to the bridge and then reconfigure it, I effectively killed my connection with no way to get back in.
Thank $deity for backups.
I'm done for the night, good grief this wasn't so difficult with dd-wrt...

Also, I don't have to call my ISP if I want to change my WiFi's password.All of this applies to my ISP-provided modem/router combo. They're not all terrible, although the previous few I've been provided were.
The only annoyance (which is rare) is that if there's a connectivity problem on the WAN side, rather than rebooting the WAN interface it just reboots the whole device. Most of my stuff is on Ethernet though connected with switches so even if it does happen I can still stream stuff and access the NAS.

@TimeBandit My ISP provides a pass-through to my own box, so the PON is just sitting there with a blinking LAN4, and very slowly turning from formerly white to a disgusting shade of yellow. Now, my own box is an old TP-Link. I've considered building my own pfSense and putting on some kind of mini-PC, got as far as spinning a VM and playing with it one evening, but then suddenly
Unfortunately five nines of what gets even that far end the same way

Well, I already don't have to. So.

My house isn't big enough for this to be an issue. But I can understand how it might be for richer people.

Never had an issue with that. And I'm Polish.

How often do you change WiFi password?

One good thing that has come with the new router box temporary replacement is I'm actually getting close to 170 mbps now (a lot closer to the speeds we're paying for), instead of 12.

That's one reason I will never go back to a consumer router. They just can't handle traffic like a real PC can because they lack CPU power and RAM.

Mine manages fine to sustain the 350mbps I pay for.

The latter. "On behalf of"

I tried once to create a sentence generator API for a text-based game for English grammar. The fucking rule for "a" vs "an" was such a bitch to work with, because it's based on the pronunciation of the word, not the spelling.

@Gąska You'll die for that!

@error nothing in English is based on the spelling. And vice versa.

I've come up with a good way of dealing with that. As soon as I wake up and walk in the bathroom, I take the pills out of the cabinet and place on the counter. (Have to eat something before I take them)
The only problem would be if I forget to take them out. So far, I seem to have firmly implanted that in my muscle memory.

You (or someone in your household) must smoke. Among us non-smokers, things instead go a disgusting grey from dust.

I rely on fixed routine, but that's a little out of whack since I'm on paid time off this week.

I have a Ryobi fan that works really well. On low speed, it lasts the entire day (well, I don't turn it on until around noon when the house finally loses its overnight coolness). It's doesn't vibrate.
Ok, technically it's my dog's fan for when we're at a hot dog show. But they're letting me use it for now.

I've noted that before when dealing with Polish colleagues I was writing a document with. Every other language user tends to garble English in a characteristic way. (German and Dutch speakers get pretty close though. The rules are pretty similar there, which is to be expected given that the core of English is a germanic language.)
-
@dkf I've noticed that as well. Doing the needful is another example of that.

Not necessarily. Some plastics naturally become yellower over time.
Interestingly, a method to turn them white again was invented pretty recently:

Have you ever thought about creating the THQL certification? Any hardware that didn't fail after you playing with it for a few weeks would be allowed to display a special logo on the box. People could buy certified products knowing "if it can survive that, it can survive anything". And you'd get free hardware!
