Technically, a router is any device which routes traffic at the IP layer (layer 3; based on IP addresses like 10.1.2.3 or fe80::abcd:1234), as opposed to some other later (e.g., a device which routes at layer 2 is a switch; a device which routes at layer 7 is a load balancer).

In colloquial usage, "router" usually refers to a home internet gateway, which is a device that does a few things:

• serves as a masquerading gateway for your local network (allowing multiple devices inside your home to share a single IP address provided by your ISP)
• serves as a traditional router for IPv6 if your ISP provides such access
• contains an Ethernet switch allowing you to connect multiple Ethernet devices
• often contains a WiFi access point, allowing you to connect WiFi devices and bridge them into your main network
• has firewall/ACL systems to prevent the outside world from getting into your network

It usually does this by being a single box containing a small Linux or BSD computer running some custom software, dedicated WiFi and Ethernet chips, and some antennas. No magic there; you can do the same thing with any computer if you put enough elbow grease into it.

Great! Glad to see neither item pass!

I guess he is the expert at fans pestering a network into making changes to a show...

Pinots usually have pretty low residual sugar (under 5g/L)

Because everything costs more than you think. Having a child without insurance is often over $100,000. Any visit to the ER for an emergency? $25,000 to get in the door and often millions of dollars if you need lots of interventions. Heck, even with insurance, chronic conditions often cost thousands of dollars per year. Even simple procedures like my daughter's tympanostomy tubes have self-pay prices in the tens of thousands of dollars.

There are still some of those that I'm familiar with, mostly entry-level white collar professional jobs like "receptionist" or "desktop IT".

Beyond that, the 9-5 is dead, though. A lot of the rest of American white-collar jobs are 24x7 where you're expected to respond to slack or email within a few minutes all day, and probably also be in the office 8-10 hours per day. And working-class jobs have all moved to unscheduled part time nonsense where they'll give you 29.5 hours a week (to avoid having to give you benefits), but won't tell you which 29.5 hours until the last possible moment.

Licensed childcare runs between $2500 and $4000 per month per child here in the Bay Area; $200k salary is about $150k after tax. Doesn't take a terribly big family to totally exhaust that amount if both parents need to work to bring it in.

I was skeptical of the rumors that Gabbard was some kind of foreign sleeper agent, but if Roger Stone is standing up for her, then perhaps she is working for the Russians...

Read a lot of portfolios to find one where the work was split between freelance photojournalism and commercial / wedding photography.
