Out of curiosity, what is your reason to run DD-WRT on a GL? Considering you have Shibby also deployed and are thus presumably familiar with its feature set, is there something in DD-WRT that makes it particularly…

For the moment, you still can, in a certain way. I've just made another lengthier comment about it elsewhere in the thread [1], before noticing yours which sadly got buried at the very bottom. [1] -…
Semi-hijacking your question to mention the other side of the pond too, which many people do not seem to know about and I run into this issue quite regularly. While the laptop situation is indeed pretty bad (the X200 is…
I can confirm that sadly - this exactly mirrors my own experiences with DDG XMPP. Sometimes for entire weeks I have been what looked like the only person reporting (or caring) that the XMPP servers are down (mind you…

I second that. I browse, guessing, about 95% of the public web with NoScript + uBlock on and unless the content that doesn't work without JS is especially crucial to what I'm doing at the moment, I'll just leave the…

Well, browsing with NoScript, I wasn't even aware of this gag until I returned to read HN comments some 20 hours later (as it looks, the Comic Sans is firstly set via JavaScript, along with the subsequent flip back to…
