  • I prefer digital books because of the following points:

    • There is a book price control in Germany, meaning that you can’t get new physical books cheaper. This does not apply to digital books.
    • They take less physical space.
    • I can read them everywhere with either my Smartphone that I already have with me at all times or my tablet. I do not have to plan to read a book when I’m on the go.
    • I can quickly search for something in a reference book if I have it in digital form. This is not possible with physical books.

    Only downside:

    • I need to have a device when I want to read a digital book. And this needs to be charged. But this is rarely a problem.

    I’m fairly new to MikroTik and no expert either, but I don’t think you need a second bridge. You can add your VLANs to the default bridge and handle internet access through firewall rules. Depending on your existing firewall logic, you may have to drop/reject all traffic from the IoT subnet to the internet and all other subnets. Make sure that you add the bridge also as a tagged interface to the VLAN! Else, the DHCP server and all services on the router can not reach the IoT subnet.

    I would also recommend to segregate all traffic into different VLANs (WAN, LAN, IoT, …). This makes it easy to manage firewall rules because you can then use either VLAN interfaces or interface lists containing multiple VLAN interfaces for similiar firewall rules. You can simply untag outgoing traffic on specific ports if you want and add a specific tag for incoming traffic.

    I have a similiar setup running. Everything is separated into VLANs and these VLANs are configured on the default bridge. Routing/allowing and denying traffic to/from the internet is handled by firewall rules. And I have defined interface lists like NO_INTERNET_ACCESS, NO_LAN_ACCESS, etc. These lists are then used by the firewall rules. If you later want to add another VLAN that should not get access to the internet you can simply add it to the NO_INTERNET_ACCESS list and you do not have to alter your firewall rules for that specific VLAN.

    Take this advice with a grain of salt. If possible, do not test this on your production network but on a separate, isolated router.




  • You’re right and that’s why I love them. You can feel that they have fun when you go to a concert. And when they have fun, the crowd has fun too! It is quite more enjoyable when you are standing in the crowd knowing that the band members have as much fun as you.

    SCANDAL are making songs that they like and not songs that may sell well. Also, they are exprimenting quite a bit. “Ai no shotai” from the latest album “Mirror” comes to mind. In that song they added a gospel choir which is something that I do not listen to every day. It is my favorite song from the album.

    Plus the fact that they have a wide vararity of styles. Every album feels fresh. This surely comes with the downside that one may not like every single song. There may be songs that are more your cup of tea and songs that you do not like very much. But that’s OK. Just listen to the songs that you like. (Honestly, there are SCANDAL songs that I can’t seem to warm up to, no matter how hard I try. And one of them is a popular SCANDAL song. But eh, they have an impressive discography. There are so many songs that I like.)

    Sorry for raving about my favorite band. 😅

    What SCANDAL songs do you like so far?

    I was in the same position two months ago and decided to go with the Prusa MK4 kit with the enclosure. So far I’m happy with my purchase. The deciding factor for me was lastly the loudness of the device because I wanted to use the printer in my apartment. Reviews said that the printer is relatively quiet and I can confirm that. If the door to my “printer room” is closed I’m not able to hear it.

    Some points about the MK4:

    Positives:

    • It prints very fast with the new Input Shaper firmware
    • I can control the printer via LAN and WiFi (or print directly from a USB drive)
    • Excellent print quality
    • Open Source and spare parts are avaiable for a long time

    Negatives:

    • Maintenance is complicated after installing the printer in the enclosure. You can only access the printer through the front door which makes reaching the sides of the printer difficult and removing the printer from the enclosure is not easy as well because you first have to disassemble the display unit.

    I dont’ have access to a Bambulab printer so I’m not able to compare both the Prusa MK4 and the Bambulab P1S. Nevertheless, I’m happy with my printer and can recommend it.
