I got gigabit fiber to my house by my Asus RT-N16 can only handle 110mbit on the NAT before the CPU falls over and top reads 1.8. Are there consumer routers that can reliably push gigabit speeds through a NAT or should I just bite the bullet and run a mini pc for router duties and have it double as a NAS?

im gonna say an airport extreme or something ubiquity will be hte best you will prolly do before hitting legit routers?

i dont get linux, so idk which parts are vague.
nginx is running and php is running. the php code is some other dudes thing that he wrote a bunch of cron-esque scripts in. I built a node script (utilizing commander; this isn't some random express poo poo) for some data fetching stuff and related and he wants it to be runnable from his server by just hitting some php url.
node was installed via nvm and as the root user. it exists at like /root/.nvm/poopy/butt/bin/node
root has access to it, but www-data does not. when I try php's exec() on the sanatized node command
exec('/root/.nvm/poopy/butt/bin/node gay.js', $out, $err);
i get a error code of 126, which means permission denied.

so, i tried to make the node binary 777 just to get it to work and I'd least permissions it out later. chmod'd /root/.nvm/poopy/butt/bin/node to 777 and chown'd it to www-data:www-data
still permission denied.

at this point i gave up and just cp'd it to the directory i had that php file in that runs the exec(). i modified the exec() node binary path to that and it worked and a big "ACCESS GRANTED" showed up on my screen in big green letters. so I'm like "here's the working thing but i linuxed it wrong, so you fix it"

You would need to give www-data at least execute rights on all directories in between because it needs to traverse them all. (don't do this)

don't install stuff in root's homedir that is really dumb, put stuff like that under /opt and then make it world-readable and executable (or just for www-data if you need to limit the use of node to the webserver on that system but I dont see why)

also if you've flashed something like ddwrt or tomato you may lose hardware acceleration due to the driver depending on the manufacture which can severely gently caress your NAT speeds

Yeah, I'm reverting it to the asus firmware since tomato apparently kills cut through forwarding. This unit doesn't do true hardware offload, so apparently the best I can expect from what others have said is it will push about 250mbit.

I went with the Linksys EA6900 after messing around on the smallnetbuilder site for way too long. Seems like the best all-arounder for wifi peformance while maintaining gigabit throughput on the wan. Computer are dumb as poo poo and this was too difficult.

youtube buffers really slowly in chrome, but if I switch to firefox it loads fast as gently caress. anyone know what might cause this?

i uninstalled all my extensiopns except for linkclump, tampermonkey and ublock and honestly if one of those is causing it i' m just going to switch to firefox

this is a dumb aside but i had this problem in linux and it turned out they were both using html5 but firefox out of the box on linux can't play anything above 480p without manual about :config changes and so was just very quickly loading 480p

chrome will try to use its UDP based QUIC protocol instead of regular TCP. maybe your ISP is doing something that is causing that kind of traffic to slow down.

You can disable QUIC in chrome://flags to see if that changes anything.

the bufferring graphic i'm sure is bullshit but lately chrome has been reaching the end of the buffer before the video is over a lot

i just disabled QUIC and it seems better but only time will tell ty

ive been getting a feeling that my latops screen darkens/lightens (idk) in a weird way depending on whether if i browse yospos or grey forums, and it is very distracting. any ideas if that could be actual monitor problem?

my tv deffo adjusts the backlighting depending on how dark the onscreen image is, it's really noticeable at night

i've never heard of a computer doing this but it's possible

the light emitted from the display trips the light sensor which causes the display to get brighter. repeat until max brightness.

never understood the appeal

best is when it's bright out and you go to the menu and it's all black and it dims to near invisibility

im doing some poo poo telnetting into devices and running commands programmatically. is there a correct way to know when the response has been fully sent? right now i just check for the shell prompt string and assume its done sending output at that point, but a lotof these devices just use "#" for shell prompt, which has been coming up a lot in the response outputs from the commands im running, giving false positives

i might be misunderstanding what you mean but i know && is a thing you can do that says "execute this command after the previous command completes successfully" like

code:
# sudo rm -rf / && echo "cya later syslords"

if you don't care about checking the exit code of the previous command, or if the program you're using throws a non-zero exit code normally, you can use a semicolon instead of double ampersand

if you want to see the exit code of the last thing you ran, do 'echo $?'

is there any vpn/vps yospos recommends for low latency stuff? my TWC net is having routing issues where some servers have terrible routes and others are fine, so i'm thinking of using a vpn just for the improved routing. but all the vpns I know of are poo poo

i've done this before using a nearby low-end vps for browsing but they tend to randomly disconnect
