Edit: heck I bet most consumer grade routers DHCP servers would choke after the first 255 clients (probably much sooner) just from having to change subnets. I’m not a networkologist though so IDK for sure
As somewhat of a networkologist I can say that most home routers use the 192.168.something.x IP range. With a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, this means that you could put 253 clients on the network (2 of the IPs aren’t usable for devices). After that, you would have to change your subnet mask to something larger, which is easily doable in router config. However, a home router likely wouldn’t work well with even just 100 devices connected. WiFi is also half duplex, meaning it can only send or receive, but not both at the same time. This would make the speed unbearably slow. You would really need multiple radios/access points to have this many devices.

Plastic is made from petroleum. Petroleum is natural and good for you. I use a 1/4 tsp of petroleum in my water for flavor and I turned out fine.

Yeah idk what it is about them, but old people love to ramble on about anything and everything. I kind of like it honestly, I can just listen to their infodumping and occasionally say short sentences and phrases and they keep the entire conversation going for me.

I would think the people buying these expensive cars wouldn’t want to crash them. I guess they do though.

I always signal out of roundabouts, but never on. Legally I’m supposed to signal in but that makes no sense to me because of course I’m going to be entering the roundabout, there is never another option.
- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 7 months ago:
as i turn the steering wheel
You should be signalling before you actually turn.
