f12 induced hacker panic

i was on a website a week or so ago where they had one of those "roll over image and show the zoomed in section under your mouse" things but you couldn't click to just load the whole image in full anywhere, or even right-click on the image to open it alone. frustrating. so i F12d and found the image link and pasted it into a new tab and there it was, easy

the student behind me was stunned, like complete jaw-dropped shock, said "did you just...like...hack that website??"

what's a good router with powerful antennae on a budget? I live in a weird house that's all right angles and weird spaces so I need something better than the lovely dlink dir-605l i have right now.

i'm in india so my range of options is limited

how bad is this thing (besides its looks)?

sorry if this post is a little scattershot, i've been looking at router reviews for about 1.5 hours so my mind has gone a little numb

antennae strength is limited by the FCC and anything you buy is going to be the allowed maximum. there's no such thing as a "powerful" one unless you flash the firmware into illegality in the usa but i have no idea what india allows, maybe you can get a ultra strength one there they couldn't sell in the states

get one that you like the features of because they're all going to be roughly of the same strength. throughput is a diff matter and they vary wildly based on how many dollars the company puts into the chipsets, i dunno ubiquiti is good for larger installations but i just got a random one from the wirecutter or whatever amazon said was their best seller and it works fine

look for separate WiFi antennas/access points for outdoor use. we have one like that in our office and it’s absurdly beefy

by being a large enough market for consumer electronics over the last 60 years that global R&D for WiFi is focused on what will be allowed in the US

if you have a big place don’t think about a single AP, think about getting multiple APs that either mesh over WiFi (there’s a shitload of these and I’ve never used any) or have a wired backhaul (ubiquiti is the system you’ll get a lot of recs for)

Don't the higher 5ghz channels let you go up to something silly on transmit power like 5W?

Does it really matter what transmit power the access point has if the devices don't have similar power?

those ubiquity ones seem to appeal coz if you need more than one then its good coz you wont have issues. if you have only one AP guess u can skimp a lot more

I should be looking at the round ubiquiti AP models?

In any case these posts have been more helpful than the wirecutter articles with their weird graphs (though that might have just been my lack of sleep causing extra confusion)

India sells antibiotics recipe-free on street pharmacies, helping the next world-killing plague evolve by leaps and bounds. I’d guess they’re not that fussy on wlan amplitude.

its not bad documentation. javascript considers it defined for the entire function, not just the for control block. in that code it exists prior to the declaration but the value is undefined. you could assign a value by doing myVarVariable="whatever" without declaring it before its declared in the for block.

it's called variable hoisting. it's dumb, but never actually causes problems in real code.

the cool and good thing is, the declarations are hoisted but the assignments aren't. yay javascript.

comcast ran out of ip addresses a few years ago so they have been buying IP blocks helter skelter

the prior owner of the block probably actually was a vpn service

Okay I have no idea why this stupid poo poo isn't working but gently caress you bash

code:
while read -r line; do echo $line; done < Clients.txt
works fine, spits out line by line from the file with a bunch of IPs in it

code:
while read -r line; do host $line; done < Clients.txt 
nope. gently caress you. hundreds of not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) errors thrown back at me.
