PhoneBoy Speaks Ep 1117: Rediscovering My Love for DD-WRT
DD-WRT is an open-source firmware for wireless routers. I pretty much don't buy a consumer-grade router unless I can install DD-WRT on it, as they actually make those routers a bit more useful. Unlike vendor firmware, which may never see an update, DD-WRT gets updates pretty regularly.

PhoneBoy Speaks Ep 1116: A Mess Of Content I Can't Manage
I've got content on so many places on so many different platforms that managing it all is a challenge. I suppose the challenge is that I'd like to keep control over as much of it as possible. Maybe I just need to let go?

PhoneBoy Speaks Ep 1112: Something in the Air
e see several "artisanal" podcasts I subscribe to have taken a break. I feel like it's time for me to do it, too. Doing a regular podcast, even one like this, takes effort.

PhoneBoy Speaks Ep 1111: No Personal Data, No Software Update
Samsung is apparently requiring "personal information" to obtain software updates. What responsibility do vendors have to provide updates, and at what cost?

PhoneBoy Speaks Ep 1110: Sneaker Buying Bots
Bots have been a problem on eBay forever insofar as auctions are voncerned, sniping and/or driving up prices. Guess I shouldn't be shocked people are also using bots to buy rate shoes…and resell them at a huge profit!
