They should put an asterisk below the reminders **does not apply if your net worth is in excess of $3M or whatever point at which your lawyers outsmart the IRS annually

That’s exactly what I was alluding to but was too lazy to type in full haha

Yeah and he has a top secret clearance…different set of rules for our special brand of corrupt oligarchs.

I have no idea what kind of training or flotation devices seals wear while boarding. Is there any way to get enough gear off to remain afloat if you fall in? Is there an inflatable that helps? I would imagine they prefer not to wear something that reduces mobility.

Yeah Amazon has opened the door to the lowest quality hardware out of China to put most name brands out of business for lower priced goods.

Oh I see, that’s helpful and makes sense. I’m one of those newbs who took 15 hours to set up my own Jellyfin. Self hosting Home automation is a ways off in the distance for me haha.

I thought this comment was trolling then I realized that zigbee and zwave are real brand names. You can’t make this shit up.

Gotcha, maybe it’s the fact I’m running iOS, I can’t get any type of rule or DHCP assignment options to show up. Just the same two options for telemetry and Nest. Oh well, thanks for the help. I’m getting my new router Tuesday and should be off to the races!

IIRC the Google Wi-Fi app had some extremely simple selection process in the port forwarding that allowed you to review the device list with IPs and select for port forwarding. The app would then carry the pf rule regardless of DHCP. Seems very simple functionality that now requires multiple steps to achieve. I’m sure in the product management meetings they assumed the new Nest users were too dumb to handle such logic or just overlooked the functionality in general to speed the migration from Google Wi-Fi to Google Home. Seems like a great mini case study for poor product management.

If you click into mine, all you see are two options both of which only serve to allow Google to Hoover more of your data.

Looking into this more a couple days ago, it seemed that without IP reservations, you can’t get the port forwarding option to appear. Which I haven’t messed with. On principal I refuse to deal with a router that has regressed in functionality and am instead dedicating my time to de-Google my life haha. I bought an openwrt compatible router this weekend.

Yeah how tf do you become feature poorer (even with the basics) as your product matures and you spend billions acquiring your competition? Oh yeah…let me click on the original news article on this post for the answer.

I went to modify my 2018 Google Wi-Fi router to add a simple port forwarding rule, and the functionality is completely GONE from their already shitty Google Home app. It used to be so easy and simple on the old Wi-Fi app. I’m never buying another Google device.

This company has reached enshittification nirvana.

I switched to DuckDuckGo and have had zero issues I had on Google that would require any additional filters.

Not to mention he sold his company to Google. So he’s as much a contributor as Google itself.

You’re a fool. CPC / CCP did no such thing. Plenty of starving homeless people in China to this day and zero social safety net.
