I do tend to overcomplicate things 😆

It seems, based on your comments and others in the post, that my next step is to flash OpenWRT and do a deep dive on its firewall functions. Thanks for taking the time to educate me!

Thanks for all the info!

At the time, I wasn’t sure why i bought OpenWRT compatible router, only that the community seemed to love it. Now I’m glad I got it!

Time to get OpenWRT working!

My Electromagnetics is a bit rusty, apply a healthy measure of skepticism:

I’d say the two fuses are there to protect the transformer itself.

In the example you use, the upstream of the transformer would be protected by the 280V fuses but the transformer itself will have to suffer the overcurrent, and could be damaged by it. If the transformer is dipped in cooling oil, the overcurrent could even lead to an explosion.

As for the TUV inspection, the two fuses would be desirable for any TUV cert, and they would be required if there is any chance of explosion.

I occasionally enjoy them when I’m between games, and I know I will not have the time or energy to start a new, more involved game.

I see these kind of games as a different medium to tell a story and, if done well, the controls can be a part of the storytelling. The Last of Us is a great example of using controls for this.

As to why not whatch a movie? I cannot sit in front of a screen passively anymore. If I’m with my partner, we can sit together and watch something, otherwise, I want to interact with the screen, even if it’s only by walking.
