Thanks!

Can’t believe I didn’t find those, guess I should have searched for platinum. Guess I’m off installing xfce.

I’ve had some bad experienced with Ubiquitis edge routers and their Unifi software, so I’d rather avoid them for a bit. I’ll have to look into mikrotik!

Though so, thanks.

I’m comfortable with a cli, but in a homelab environment quick testing might prove easier using a GUI, so I’ll probably go with the pfsense route then

As a fellow dutch person that also travels by trains a lot, I get really irritated when people only complain. Sure, there are definitely fuck ups at NS. But I feel people completely write off the system because of them. I can’t remember the last time a train got outright cancelled (outside of extreme weather conditions in which I also wouldn’t be comfortable driving). There are issues with the system, those should be fixed, but that does not mean that everything is terrible.

But maybe it’s way worse in your part of the country, there definitely have been issues with getting enough personnel (as do all other sectors). So maybe we are both making our arguments from two different experiences.

I’m sorry, what? It may feel like they suck when there is a 10 minute delay on the train you wanted to take, but the Dutch railway system is one of the most reliable in Europe.
