So milk testing done by labs will still be done but those labs won’t be tested until this is resolved. Yes, the activity being stopped is important but a short stall shouldn’t immediately accept food safety.

I second the “check a thrift store” idea. People buy them, use them 3 times, then eventually donate them so you’ll likely find several barely used models.

If someone reading this has Ryan Mcbeth’s ear they might want to point him to this post. He’d likely have good suggestions. Here’s one of his lectures on disinformation: https://www.youtube.com/live/THfi_lxBvW0

catchy_name@feddit.itto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•WiFi Roaming Between Different RoutersEnglish8·5 months agoIn the past, what has worked for me is to configure the routers to disconnect clients whose signal level drops below a specified threshold. Clients aren’t savvy about this / will stay connected to a poor signal when a better one is available. You’d have to look at router-reported signal levels in your physical space to figure out where to set the thresholds.

I read this as a haiku.
