This is some incredibly janky shit. I’m exhausted and kind of proud
Ok ok I splain you my genius network engineering degree design - I bought a hotspot, found an ancient repeater with Ethernet out, repeated the hotspot and plugged my entire network into the repeater.
This is why I have a diploma from a really expensive university I think. Also, explaining subnetting and vlans while drunk.

Frank Endrullat 🌻@hacks4pancakes And now you have a backup link. Not unimportant if your work depends on your connectivity. 😎

I wish I could hold my liquor well enough to understand vlans.

peejaybee@ian @hacks4pancakes I thought those were more of a psilocybin thing.
You S Blues@ian @hacks4pancakes @peejaybee If there was a table of pharmacological interventions best utilized for particular stunt tech tasks, I’d appreciate it if you would share.
@patmikemid @ian @hacks4pancakes Well, I don't really have any particular knowledge, just a sense that whoever came up with vlans must have been in a totally different reality from us.
Rita@ian now i want a video of @hacks4pancakes explaning subnetting using various liquor bottles as packets…
Piškvor🇨🇿 🇺🇦@ian @hacks4pancakes Right? Vlans are not to be understood by mere human though. By suppressing that, it is possible to obtain a configuration that works, yet doesn't make any sense.
Wayne Dixon@ian @hacks4pancakes I will fully admit that everyone else is like 1000x smarter than I am, but weirdly VLANs are one of those things that I do understand, without liquor. Now, could I explain it to someone, that’s debatable.
Salacious Crumb@ian @hacks4pancakes I'm currently trying to apply my Cisco education to a Ubiquity network and it's not going well. There's a lot of Captain Morgan involved.
QRSS_Test@ian @hacks4pancakes It’s like a regular LAN, but virtual. And then there are all these hardware specific limitations on what you can do due to the underlying ASICs of the switch.
coriolisdave@ian @hacks4pancakes vlans are just packets with additional metadata slapped on them, that the network pretends it can’t see unless it’s told explicitly that it’s ok.
Chip Christian@hacks4pancakes I work with someone who needs vlans and ARP explained to him by a drunk person
AMS@hacks4pancakes I can subnet and vlan sober. VRFs and BGP though...
Geoff Kratz@hacks4pancakes So few of my friends seemed interested in those kinds of parties. Their loss, I guess.
Lyle, a walking haunted house@hacks4pancakes The latter part is super interesting. The former is some of the best "well, this is the pile of things I have, and this is what I need it to do" engineering I've seeing in a while.
@hacks4pancakes if it’s ugly but it works it’s not ugly
