What is it that you want to say but can't?

Aha, that explain it. I saw a lot of moomin (Mummi-trollene) in the 90's.

Where is this from, again? I know I've seen it somewhere...

You can probably turn the device off, but you won't save any battery.

I used to do the same, and for stationary PCs, that's still my recommendation. Sure, some might actually need bleeding edge stuff for for some specific niche high performance thing, but for most people that's a waste of money.

The only exception is for laptops. I rely on laptops as I'm often on the go, and I've generally had better results when going high end (within reason) than going mid-tier.

iPhone 3G. Awful performance, even worse battery life, no multitasking, next to no storage space, couldn't do shit without iTunes, and even with iTunes the options were severely limited. Overpriced locked down piece of shit. Streamlined UI was pretty much the only good thing about it. Got an android phone not long after and it was like night and day.

Neither, really. I have enough when it comes to both.

But if I absolutely had to choose I'd say clothes, solely based on jeans: I finally found a type I actually like (as opposed to "meh, good enough", which has been the standard most of my life) about a year ago. My preferred jeans can only be found at Target, and I live in Europe.

Where from? Asking for a friend..

 

In short, sell me on ufw.

I learned recently that yfw is basically replacing iptables "everywhere", and as I'm getting old and crusty, this means that I have to learn something new when I'd much rather practice yelling at kids to get off my lawn.

To me, iptables is fine, and I like its flexibility. I've been using it ever since it de facto replaced ipchains, so ease of use isn'treally a factor in this equation.

So my more pointed question is: Can I just stick to iptables, or am I missing out on something that can only be done with ufw?

 

Are there any canonical references to how fast these two are, for comparison?
