#

that's a whole sea urchin, what ever do you mean

forest edge
#

beach humor is bland

steel crag
#

I love crab eggs

#

from land crabs

#

soooo good if you boil em with dumplings

#

fatty and full of protein

#

just like sea urchins

forest edge
#

wonder how much plastic you two ingest on average

steel crag
#

prolly less than the hormones of middle earth

#

shrugs

forest edge
#

hormones huh

#

your thinking califronia farms

steel crag
#

no I'm thinking any farm in the US

#

lol

forest edge
#

thats not true at all

#

many don't need pesticides or hormones

steel crag
#

I grew up on a chicken farm, I know what natural chickens look like

forest edge
#

when it comes to cattle i have first hand experince what those bastards eat and get subjected too lol

tidal bronze
#

WTH? You are truly in the middle or nowhere huh? @forest edge

forest edge
steel crag
#

we also had cattle, sheep, goats, and hogs that we raised to slaughter/sell in the butcher shop

#

that's part of the reason I no longer eat meat LOL

forest edge
#

i'll put out an extra folding lawn chair for ya when you come swimming up to my new beach front property in the near future lol

steel crag
#

I'll bring my jet ski

tidal bronze
#

So how far away are you from the nearest beach ?@forest edge

steel crag
forest edge

tidal bronze
#

Lmao

forest edge

steel crag
#

we are talking SALT WATER

forest edge
#

sand on edge of water = beach all day long

steel crag
#

not sewerage run off

forest edge
tidal bronze
#

That looks like a 2.5 hr flight

#

Dayum son

steel crag
#

we buy bottled, I have 50 gallons of bottled water right now

forest edge
#

lol buy bottled

#

wonder if the plastic from that tastes any diffrent from the shit in the sea life you eat

steel crag
#

yeah because I actually have a well, and don't use municipal water at all

#

so I buy 5 gallon bottles of water

#

oh wait, you can't have wells in California eh Quad LOL

#

either way all the water has pee in it

forest edge
#

this shit is why middle earth > trumps everywhere else.. we don't need to do all this artifical extra toxic bs crap just to enjoy the basics of living lol

tidal bronze
#

@forest edge now I understand why you drool over the east and west coast. You can complain all you want. Best get that frustration out somehow. We are here for you.

steel crag
#

so I don't need to pump well water at all unless there's no rain

forest edge
tidal bronze
#

Go on. Have at it.

#

Sucks to live in a place like that. I understand your frustration

forest edge
#

lol you poor thing

steel crag
#

wait, pumping pure water out of the ground is toxic?

#

lol

tidal bronze
#

Bad water, bad food humidity, sorry man. One day you will get out.

steel crag
#

my well water scores better than most places in the US

#

and I still don't drink it

forest edge
steel crag
#

there's nowhere in my country with water like Flint, Michigan

tidal bronze
forest edge
steel crag
#

I would rather be homeless on a beach than in middle earth

#

shrugs

tidal bronze
#

My point!

steel crag
#

I can plait coconut leaves into jugs that hold water so I'm sure I can build a roof

forest edge
steel crag
#

so your hypothesis is invalid

tidal bronze
#

He is yet to leave the state

steel crag
#

and when I say lived I mean lived for more than 10 months at a time

forest edge
#

is it tho? just because you experince specific pin pricks of diffrent lands dosen't exactly mean you know what it's like everywhere

steel crag
#

well I've lived in everywhere but the desert

#

including the rain forest

forest edge
#

like quad over there, never seen anything other than touristy type locations in several locations

tidal bronze
steel crag
#

I wouldn't call walking barefoot thru the rainforest in Belize a "touristy spot" but OK

forest edge
tidal bronze
#

Not anymore. Viasat launched new ones. Super happy now.

steel crag
#

I must say tho, that when I visit a country I don't go to Missouri for example

tidal bronze
#

Oh ma ma mia. LMAO

steel crag
#

it's known as the show me state

#

why would I go there

tidal bronze
#

I am dying here. ๐Ÿคฃ

forest edge
#

the jealousy up in here gets so thick lol

steel crag
#

jealous? I can live anywhere I like, I've been to 18 countries and 88 cities, and Missouri was not on the list of must sees

tidal bronze
forest edge
steel crag
#

is this how you get fresh blood?

#

it's not very appealing

forest edge
#

there is a reason famous people move here lol

steel crag
#

I bet more famous people live in The Bahamas than Missouri

#

just a small wager

forest edge
#

live? or vacation?

steel crag
#

live

forest edge
#

i'm leaning toward vacation

steel crag
#

Sean Connery lived here until he died, I don't think he ever went to Missouri

#

came for the bond movies, stayed for the rum

forest edge
#

that statement makes no sense

glacial knot
#

Isn't Missouri a flyover state?

tidal bronze
#

Of course it is.

steel crag
#

Astronauts on the space station "The Bahamas is beautiful"
"what's that smudge on the lense?"
"Missouri"

forest edge
#

the fly over is the very reason we aren't in shambles like so many other places

tidal bronze
steel crag
#

I'm on number 8

tidal bronze

steel crag
#

actually it's the last one, I'm officially out of my favorite rum

tidal bronze
#

It's ok to run out of disk space but not alcohol, unacceptable!

steel crag
#

I didn't say I ran out of alcohol, or rum for that matter

#

I said 'my favorite'

forest edge
#

what the world might look like for you two sober lol

steel crag
#

I'd imagine it looks like anything but Missouri to be fair

#

I go to work in flip flops and shorts, and stop by the beach on the way home... my life sucks real bad

tidal bronze
#

But on positive note, thanks to @forest edge we are reminded that Missouri exists, at least that's good thing

steel crag
#

or, is it?

forest edge
steel crag
#

are you grasping?

#

LOL

#

hands you a straw

forest edge
#

lets be real fellows.. the media for the past 20+ years doesn't support the bragging you two do at all, in fact i've seen public toilets that are nicer and more welcoming

steel crag
#

the media? so you're misinformed, not ignorant .. gotcha

#

LMFAO

static schooner
#

My brother was born there, in Kansas City. Where they pretend they're not in Missouri

forest edge
#

you know.. documentaries

#

you implying all video and pictures coming out are photoshopped or something?

steel crag
#

I've never seen a documentary about missouri that wasn't about gang violence

#

so there's that

forest edge
#

every article is just "fake news"?

tidal bronze
#

My question is how do you have this much free time?

steel crag
#

you do realize we have 700 islands right? I mean I've been to most of them, but have you?

#

or do you just see pictures of what people say is here

#

๐Ÿค”

forest edge
#

like you being to missouri?

steel crag
#

you know what

#

I'll come to missouri

#

it still won't change how I feel

#

LMFAO

forest edge
#

don't bother, the double standard is real lol

steel crag
#

you're invited to join me in The Bahamas tho

static schooner
steel crag

kansas city ain't in Kansas

forest edge
tidal bronze
forest edge
steel crag
#

people wake up and say "I wanna go to California" "I want to go to The Bahamas"

#

I've never seen anyone wake up and say "I wanna go to Missouri"

steel crag

tidal bronze
#

What's next door?

steel crag
forest edge
#

something that wouldn't do well in LA..

tidal bronze
#

Oh nextdoor, just read about it. So you a Ken?

forest edge
#

nextdoor type apps work well with nice quiet safe places like here

#

they don't just end up being used for criminal actions like your use too lol

steel crag
#

at my other house my nearest neighbor is 3 miles up the road

#

then again my driveway is also 1300' long

tidal bronze
#

They need next door down in middle earth. What the hell are you going to after 3PM

forest edge
#

wut

forest edge
#

less drinky drinky, more makey makey sense

the only thing we don't have that you got, is everything being open 24hr

steel crag

please send pictures of your beach to verify

willow sundial
forest edge
steel crag
#

the lake rocks are not a beach

forest edge
#

it's sand buddy

steel crag
#

no matter what you tell yourself

#

so tiny lake rocks

forest edge
#

it's just not crystal meth like your use too lol

steel crag
#

well I'm used to sand so pure people steal it wholesale

#

not heard of the exploits of the greater missouri sand pirates personally

#

but I will keep my feelers out

forest edge
#

people steal sand?

#

now that's poverty

Lake beaches

Global warming's a bitch

forest edge
steel crag
#

I ripped out my 2 3.5ton central AC units

#

replacing them with solar split units

#

since you asked

forest edge
#

you can keep your hurricanes

tidal bronze
steel crag
#

you can keep your tornadoes

#

you live in tornado alley

forest edge
#

tornados generally impact less surface areas and don't cause mass flooding.. so deal

steel crag
#

that's right they just rip up your paper houses

forest edge
#

here we go

#

not all of us use straw

willow sundial
steel crag
#

we build in concrete, and 2ft above the road levels

#

so we don't flood ๐Ÿ˜„

#

the big bad wolf was NOT written in The Bahamas

forest edge
#

chinese formulated concrete is not concrete lol

tidal bronze
#

I think I need to switch to some tequila

steel crag
forest edge
steel crag
#

which is so pure it's proven to make the strongest concrete on earth

#

then we use it to build the whole house, not just the foundation

#

so when the wind blows, we get home to a house, not a foundation

forest edge
steel crag
#

I'd like to harken your attention to the fact that we also use lime and ash in our concrete just like the Romans did

#

so cracks self heal

#

but I mean continue by all means

forest edge
#

don't think they used ash

steel crag
forest edge
#

i could be wrong, just don't remember it being mentioned

steel crag
#

it's ok, old memories fade.

forest edge
#

lets be real, if your concrete sucked.. would you even still be here to talk smack?

steel crag
#

nope, cuz we'd have been wiped out 150 years ago

forest edge
#

not sure pigion express reaches floating debris in the atlantic lol

steel crag
#

Florida adopted our building codes after Hurricane Andrew for a reason ๐Ÿ˜„

#

they were like wait the same hurricane passed you guys? and you guys are still here?

forest edge
#

poor quad over. there. he's like tornado's? hurricanes? concrete? what are they talking about?

steel crag
#

** takes notes**

tidal bronze
steel crag
#

quad a hurricane is like a tornado and earthquake at the same time

forest edge
#

cause i'm doubting you do

tidal bronze
#

Yes I do.

forest edge
#

must be right on the line lol

tidal bronze
#

You know LA is size of many countries right?

steel crag
#

I live right outside city limits but the islands only 21 miles long, and still an ambulance can take 2 hours

forest edge
#

cause LA is a shit hole and the only "nice" pictures of it these days are taking far away from the dense portions of it lol

steel crag

depending on time of day

#

wait, i know.. you get air lifted to a cvs minute medic

steel crag
#

it's only 45 mins to get airlifted to Miami from here tho

tidal bronze
#

Miami the country right. Heard they don't like to say it's a part of FL ๐Ÿ˜†

steel crag
#

lol

#

well Miami is made up of Bahamians, Cubans, and Haitians mostly now

forest edge
#

considering the amount of homeowners there losing thier insurance.. sounds about right

steel crag
#

we all have "little" areas in Miami

#

Little Bahamas is near Coconut Grove

#

but Bahamians built most of Miami

#

if you know your history ๐Ÿ˜„

forest edge
#

speaking of insurance, i read that california might be facing a similiar issue soon

#

better hope your houses don't burn down lol

tidal bronze
#

Don't worry about big boys.

steel crag
#

wait, isn't insurance that thing you pay every year that then refuses to pay you when you need it, and you could have just saved the money yourself and done it when needed?

#

that stuff?

forest edge
#

you know what coastal area in the US that I don't regularly read negative shit about?

#

you guessed it.. Texas lol

tidal bronze
#

Another fly over

forest edge
#

to what?

#

mexico

steel crag
#

I actually want to visit Texas

#

just to see the Alamo

tidal bronze
#

I take it back not worth even flying over.

forest edge
#

but galveston was nice when i went

steel crag
#

where it's 90F and 85% humidity at 1:44am?

forest edge
#

picture home but with no wind

steel crag
#

Home Wind 3.2mph

#

that's no wind

tidal bronze
#

Had a great laugh. Time to go get some street tacos.

forest edge
#

3.2? on a an island? that don't sound right

#

but that still isn't 0

steel crag
#

when we have wind in the summer, that's a hurricane

steel crag
#

one of them is a local weather station

forest edge
steel crag
#

๐Ÿ˜‰

#

besides you ever have hot wet air blown in your face?

#

and it's humid AF?

forest edge

Texas in some spots reminded me of Louisiana and NO beach could ever be that bad

not to mention the lone star tick lol

tidal bronze

no it's prolly got the right spelling

tidal bronze
#

What would life be without uber

steel crag
#

we don't even have Uber

#

that's called 'a taxi'

tidal bronze
#

Like in Madrid ๐Ÿคฃ

steel crag

Taxis don't go to certain areas after certain times

#

and they do not come to my neighborhood at all

#

you seen midnight express?

steel crag
#

Quad our prison looks like the one in midnight express, no lie

forest edge
#

and you contradict the media lol

steel crag
#

well I live across the street from the prison, which part of the media does?

#

show me which foreign reporter has lived next to the prison so close as to hear the lunch bell at 12pm since 1996

forest edge
#

it's ok, several parts of Hawaii is a shit hole too

steel crag
#

I think I know slightly more than them on this matter

#

if you're talking about the part SBF was in, that's what we call "jail" not "prison"

#

it's for people not convicted, convicts share 8x10ft cells with 11 other people LOL

glacial knot
#

Do bahamians use burger units? o.0

steel crag
#

well you see, because we are in a grey market we use both

#

I can handle both measurement systems, what a shocker

forest edge
#

@steel cragwith the exception of connery and maybe kravitz, no famous people actually "live" in the bahamas. several own islands there but they don't live there

#

i had to look it up, was curious

glacial knot
#

wdym both? Don't forget that the brits are different yet again

steel crag
forest edge
#

but on that note, if you look at famous people who "live" in missouri, there are infact more of them

forest edge
#

you might be talking about people whom i've never heard of

steel crag
#

well Peter Nyguard had a USD$68,000,000 home here he lived in till the legal trouble

#

and his neighbor is even more famous than him

forest edge
#

and if any of those are like youtube famous.. stop that.. i do not count anything like that as being "famous" even if the world we live in now does

steel crag
#

but I mean I know a guy with 14 homes, he lives in all of them but are you gonna say he doesnt live in any of them now?

forest edge
steel crag
#

there's rich, then there's I'll buy an island to tie my yacht up rich

forest edge
#

big diffrence between a summer home and a main home

steel crag
#

I'm not sure we are talking about the same folk if you include Missouri in that

forest edge
#

what do you mean?

#

actors i would consider famous.. like connery

steel crag
#

how much is an island in Missouri?

forest edge
#

famous music singers

#

i guess like bill gates counts

steel crag
#

bill gates has an island here too tho

#

so does Johnny Depp

forest edge
#

but he dosen't live there

steel crag
#

is he famous?

forest edge
#

neither of them do

steel crag
#

bro you're talking about people who live where they want for how long they want

#

and all of them have permanent residency here

forest edge
#

ugh see

steel crag
#

if you look it up

forest edge
#

so the fuck what, that's like every country bragging about the same person "living" there at the same time lol

@tidal bronze wtf was that? lol

tidal bronze

@forest edge don't have to stop by

glacial knot

that's cheap o.0

forest edge

permanent residency doesn't mean much other than you get let in for longer time than tourists lol

yea, I'm aware

forest edge

@steel cragsummer homes do not count

no one considers a summer home as a primary residence outside the bahamas tho

you call them summer homes, but people live in them year round

forest edge
steel crag
#

you do need a passport tho

#

not a drivers license

tidal bronze

Lmao

glacial knot

isn't that the trick of those places? IT's summer all year round?

tidal bronze

This is like standup

#

Not seeing the world and talking about the world ain't fun huh @forest edge

steel crag
#

Sonoma you know any of these Bahamians? cuz these are just the Bahamian celebs that live here

forest edge
steel crag
#

thats much more than the "2" you say live here

Beyonce literally has Bahamian roots

but "no one famous lives in The Bahamas"

#

no one really famous at all

I dunno man, we had two of the most expensive hotel rooms in the world for a very long time, now we only have one

forest edge
#

i thought you said you were gud with google

steel crag

here, I'll copy/paste "born, raised, or have lived for a significant period of time in the U.S. state of Missouri"

#

so like you said people without summer homes

#

who live there

forest edge
#

wtf does born or raised have to do with anything?

#

stretch armstrong over here

steel crag
#

but it "includes" the famous people that live there

forest edge

it does not

steel crag

so it should help your case, but alas, it doesn't

if it did you would certianly know some of them lol

just the reading is hard?

it's ok

steel crag

well it's the comprehension that matters anyway

forest edge

no matter how much you try and stretch stuff, you keep losing

you don't have to know who the actors from the marvel movies are etc

i won't fault you on that

@clear ferry have you tried to setup openvpn on opnsene/pfsense? when I did last week and logged on fro work pfsense went crazy and though openvpn was the router WAN and tried to use it, restarted its services, kicked me out, then started using the real WAN untill I logged in again

I watch this dude's videos a lot. he covers both pfsense and opnsense. https://www.youtube.com/@LAWRENCESYSTEMS

#

I had a 24/7 site to site and three road warrior clients

late gate
#

the thing is I was reading tutorials and some said the subnets should sum up and some said it should ne outside the subnet. I dont know what to believe with openvpn

#

might switch back to opnsense though. Not too happy with pfsense

forest edge
#

he has a openvpn tutorial i think

late gate
#

I will take a look ๐Ÿ™‚

forest edge
#

i don't see how switching will fix your issue

late gate
#

no its more of an UI thing. Opensense is a bit less confusing UI

#

other than that they are quite similar

forest edge
#

oh? not seen the pfsense ui

late gate
#

google it and it you will see

forest edge
#

what little screenshots i've seen it looked like pfsense was more simplified

late gate
#

looks like it was built in 1994 with tables

forest edge
#

i really don't see much of a diffrence lol

#

i'll take your word for it tho, everything i've seen is very limited

late gate
#

the main difference is opensense categorize it in categories, while pfsense split them up in functions. so for example opensense you have all dns suff under services, in pfsense you have dns in one menu, lease in another, log in a third

#

and no search function

forest edge
#

interesting

late gate
#

I think its what you get used to

#

so I would say the UI is a TAD better

#

but they could benefit of an overhaul

forest edge
#

there are some things pfsense just won't update if they don't have to

#

i did read about that

#

apparently network dweebs don't like modren in some cases lol

late gate
#

yeah, thats how it is. I think its a lot of hard headed people there, thats why they split

#

I dont know if its any better router software out there though

#

both seem stable, and are very, very easy to restore thugh

#

Just adding something as simple as a QR code when making a Wireguard would make it so much easier

#

like unraid, where you can use a QR code to get the client config. much easier

red rock
#

Doesn't wireguard do this already

#

Although I use pivpn for creating my config, that supported qr code

late gate
#

isnt that for a pi?

#

not for pfsense etc

red rock
#

Yeye

#

So not sure if that completely applies

forest edge
#

with that said, i've also read wireguard is also easy to setup for opnsense

#

closest thing i gotten to install vpn wise on my opnsense was tailscale, but then decided to not do it

late gate
#

its "easy". I have done it on opensense

#

and it was not a wizard style easy, but easy enough when you dont forget to restart the DCHP server before testing

#

thats what I was stuck on, it didnt work, before I restarted dhcp

forest edge
#

well that youtube person i linked had a video about why people switched from opnvpn to wireguard

#

something about openvpn that had changed which made getting it setup was harder or lacked something. i don't remember

late gate
#

recently? I saw a video recently and he said he used both

#

wireguard less cause of the complicated client setup

wireguard between servers and infrastructure

but not client

pfSense is created with the idea of you running it on one of their dedicated appliances with a support contract

OPNsense is made more as an open-source community project

let me give you an example. I started making a sensor timing the commute to work two days ago, but since that started with the UPS, and fixing a 4G dongle, installed greylog and authentic (but not added one user)

#

and the plan is still the commute sensor

#

so its frustrating

#

I looked at some popular apps, and they are really not impressive for what you pay

#

And I still dont know if I am going to use greylog, spluk (with the free enterprise license) or loki

#

haha

#

thats how my brain works

Hm I see. I remember redmine being more task planning and less ticket movement - but it's old by now and not necessarily what you want in terms of usability
