@joeo10 Hahah, BEM-style CSS does have a lot of dots and dashes, doesn’t it?
@JeremyCherfas The modern VCR!
It doesn’t help that many are stunted intentionally, so stuff you ought to be able to do, you can’t. I haven’t had an ISP-issued router that let me just treat it as a modem (“bridge mode”) since probably 2008. :\
Bridge mode made things dead easy: set to bridge, plug into “Internet” jack on your on router, and done. No worries about subnet disagreements between DHCP servers or anything like with cascaded routers (when a router is “downstream” of another router), which is what I’ve wound up with.

@JeremyCherfas You can do your cards on the go using the mobile Web app: https://ankiweb.net/account/login
I did that for years before picking up the iOS app.
@JeremyCherfas I always wind up running my own router. Unlike the ISP one with integrated modem, I can upgrade my own every so often to keep pace with standards evolution and hardware improvements.

@variablepulserate I had to hardwire to get the full speed. WiFi just can’t compete with Cat6 cabling.

@variablepulserate Oh wow. The US definition of broadband went from 4 Mbps down / 1 Mbps up to 25/3 back in 2015.
I had a crummy 3 Mbps / 765 kbps ADSL connection for years, until fiber finally became available. Now I basically get 1 Gbps/1 Gbps, though only speedtest systems ever seem to meet those speeds in practice when I watch a download.

@matigo I did mine Friday night. 90 minutes start to finish. Was very glad to have it over and done.
Surefire earplugs continue to be an essential coping mechanism with small children around. Wish I’d remember to use them before I got all cranky, though. :\
