  • Depending on who you’re with, you can try calling their support and explaining what you’re looking for. I always tell them “I need to disable routing and have my gateway act like a modem. It should give a public IP directly to my router.” This should explain in layman’s to any technician what you’re looking for and they’ll be able to tell you if it can be done. If you’re with a cable or DSL provider, also ask about options to provide your own equipment. This can save you money in the long run, too, if you’re renting the hardware through them at the moment.















  • I’ve never heard of Zardos personally, but it sounds like you’re looking for movies that have deep significance and application to the real world. My number one recommendation is Waking Life. It is a movie that thoroughly explores what it means to be human all without imposing any specific viewpoint or agenda.

    It’s a series of borderline interviews taken from all walks of life and then rotoscoped into a beautiful dream sequence.

    I can find ways that it’s relevant to just about every day of my life. It’s packed full of serious challenging conversations about the self, spirituality, morality and mankind.

    If this isn’t the type of thing you’re looking for, maybe elaborate a bit more on what you mean.


  • I’ve said this before, but I have recently thought about what changes there are in human psychology when you go from being in a place where you can let out a guttural scream comfortably vs not.

    Like, I’m sure in the past, when someone needed to, it must have been pretty easy to just go to a gorge or whatever and yell about the world for a bit.

    Now, it seems no matter where you go, there’s people nearby that you wouldn’t want to confuse/annoy with your screaming. So many times I’ve wanted to just have a few moments of non-destructive rage in my apartment but know that this would upset all my neighbors.

    It just feels incredibly stifling.

    Is there anything to this or am I just rambling…
