MoCA is a way to send wired Ethernet up to (300mb/s, at least the version i have) over coax. Verizon fios would provide these devices to send internet to set top boxes over existing coax cabling, but you can get a pair of these devices and send Ethernet in on one side, and Ethernet out the other side.
I have noticed however, it adds a bit of latency to the connection, which may be trouble.
Paige, no, no, no, no, no!

If can wrap your head around the tech, that person figured out how the codes are generated, and made a web page that could make them (without cracking or ‘stealing’ an unpaid ticket)
At $dayjob I switched from Apache to nginx 15+ years ago. It’s Callback/Event based process model ran circles around Apache’s pre-fork model at the time. It was very carefully developed to be secure, and even early on it had a good track record. Being able to have nginx handle static content without tying up a backend worker process was huge, and let us scale our app pretty well for the investment of time. Since then, Apache implemented threaded + Event based process models, Caddy, traefik, and a bunch of others have entered the scene.
TBH, I think the big thing nowadays is sane defaults, and better configuration, even automatically discovered configuration – traefik is my current favorite for discovering hosts in consul/Kubernetes/simple host definition files, but since traefik can’t directly serve files, I simply proxy from traefik to … nginx :)
Amoral? “Thou shall not bear false witness …” That’s one of the big ten list …
They are also using this as an excuse to get customers on their data hoovering apps to get access to any of the best deals.
They also made RIPTerm and RIPscript iirc. Those were the days…….
Because they’re old, and weird.
