A little over a decade ago, I decided to try The Dvorak Keyboard. The reasoning was sound. Less finger travel meant type faster with more comfort and reduced pain from RSI. When I was a teenager, I developed carpal tunnel that plagued me into my 20’s. Did switching to Dvorak fix it? Possibly. I’m honestly not sure. Do I type faster? No. During the prime of my Qwerty youth, I was at somewhere between 160-180WPM. http://salcedo.tech/notes/ism-band-rules/ Fri, 07 Jun 2019 08:48:06 -0400 http://salcedo.tech/notes/ism-band-rules/ 47 CFR § 15.247 Operation within the bands 902–928 MHz, 2400–2483.5 MHz, and 5725–5850 MHz. With regard to frequency hopping: Shall have hopping channel carrier frequencies separated by a minimum of 25 kHz or the 20 dB bandwidth of the hopping channel, whichever is greater. Shall hop to channel frequencies that are selected from a pseudo randomly ordered list of hopping frequencies. Each frequency must be used equally on the average by each transmitter. http://salcedo.tech/notes/using-mosh-with-socks5/ Thu, 06 Jun 2019 19:35:51 -0400 http://salcedo.tech/notes/using-mosh-with-socks5/ If you haven’t used Mosh, you’ve been living in a cave. Seriously. You don’t know what you’re missing. As part of my grand experiment to live entirely on mobile data (2GB at LTE speeds, then throttled down to 3G speeds for the remainder of each month), I need robust and responsive SSH connections. Mosh supports intelligent local echo, roaming, and intermittent connectivity; making it ideal for use on mobile networks. It’s obvious Mosh is nearly perfect for my needs. http://salcedo.tech/delusions/why-i-dont-have-a-smartphone/ Sat, 01 Jun 2019 20:41:30 -0400 http://salcedo.tech/delusions/why-i-dont-have-a-smartphone/ Recently, I realized there was only enough money in my account to pay one of two remaining bills for the month. Either pay car insurance or pay a shitty MVNO for another month of wireless service to smile about. Whenever it rang, it was mostly robots trying to sell me warranties for a vehicle I no longer own. Or to help me save on car insurance. In my case, the things I used a smartphone for did not justify the need to pay the monthly cost. http://salcedo.tech/delusions/why-i-started-this/ Sat, 01 Jun 2019 19:49:12 -0400 http://salcedo.tech/delusions/why-i-started-this/ There is always more shit to do. Maybe I should write about some of it. Life is getting to the point where I find myself searching for answers to problems I already solved several times before. Notes taking. It’s easy. Just do it. I also think I have possibly gone insane. Part of this site will hold writings about that possibility, or derived out of said possible insanity. http://salcedo.tech/notes/wireguard-on-openwrt/ Sat, 01 Jun 2019 19:00:55 -0400 http://salcedo.tech/notes/wireguard-on-openwrt/ Install WireGuard: $ opkg install wireguard luci-app-wireguard But in my case, I custom build OpenWrt from gl-inet sources. The build contains only the essentials for my smoothly-running GL-AR750S-Ext. Routing, firewalling, VPN, and a single remotely accessible (via LAN only) service running: Dropbear. Look here for configuring WireGuard on OpenWrt using LuCi. Configuring WireGuard on OpenWrt “The Hard Way” is quite easy. We will configure OpenWrt as a WireGuard client and have it masquerade all traffic to our VPS.
