  • Agreed. (A slice of ham and tomato on an egg salad sandwich is where it’s at btw) I do like cream cheese, but it’s completely unnecessary here. At least it’s not whipped cream lol.

    Of all the kitchy 60s cuisine, this might be the least offensive to me. If you’re gonna mke a “cake” out of a sandwich though, you need something on the outside. Which breaks the deal because you really can’t use anything. Honestly cream cheese is the only thing I can even imagine. Maybe butter, but how much butter can you have lol.

    Maybe, possibly, if you can make an icing out of Swiss?

    I’d still rather just make canapes or something.














  • Switches 3 and 4 are single points of failure. The other 2 & 5 are completely redundant unnecessary.

    You can just use 2 switches total, cross-connect each to upstream, and do vLANs/subnets to isolate the traffic downstream.

    Edit: if you really wanna do physical separation and you want redundancy you’d want to connect 2&5 to both routers.

    Honestly tho textbook network with that many nodes for so few devices is already overkill for home, so doing that many switches is just… Idk man, doing full stack troubleshooting for an hour while everyone’s just trying to watch a movie is gonna do more hatm than good.

    Whoever implements this should probably spin up a ticketing system for the house.



  • This is how we end up with R5-10, which will soon be another sign that specifies e-bikes (and perhaps we need multiple discrete signs). We had a no phone use sign, then we needed no texting (or no mobile). The signage just hasn’t caught up.

    But it gets even weirder when you’re talking about not even a roadway - so then signage changes between jurisdictions.

    I tend to err on the side of caution, but dollars to donuts there’s enough ambiguity in that signage you’re thinking about where you can’t really be ticketed because you can win the argument in court. What results is lack of enforcement (which is another legal defense in and of itself).

    PS IDK if it’s overthinking. This is the kind of stuff I think about lol (and apparently we’ve found our people)


  • R9-3, R9-13, R9-14, R9-15, R9-16, R5-2, R8-3, R9-3, R14-5, R9-4

    R9-4 has an R9-4a where it’s words, and I’d bet you that’s because someone argued in court that the former bans giving thumbs up, not holding up a hitchhiking sign.

    Do Not Enter has words but that’s just extra lettering overlaid on a universal pictogram sign.

    there is no “most” in american signs for common/universal things like skateboarding, swimming, smoking, etc. For almost every every “No” sign that exists, there exists a counterpart “slash” sign. Add to that not every “no” sign is a roadway sign (eg no smoking)

    There is a legal difference between Parking, Standing, and Idling a vehicle. Not every jusrisdiction has distinct bans for each, so there isn’t a universal way to represent each. You also need qualifiers - any time, or certain hours, or either side of the street, so you get those signs with words.

    You can’t really do a picto for “No commercial vehicles”. I suppose we could do a picto for No Thru Traffic. I could also see that you can do “No Pedestrians Bicycles Motor-driven Cycles” with 3 pictograms (IMO more than like 3 words on a road sign is just a bad idea)
