01:32:08<systwi_>Heart sank like a ship just now.
01:32:23<systwi_>Lightning strike very close by made my monitor go black for a second.
01:32:42<systwi_>Not the mains power, my monitor, which has done that upon static discharge.
01:37:19<nicolas17>systwi_: one time lightning struck close (sound, light, and power outage simultaneously)
01:37:51<nicolas17>turned out it tripped my breakers/GFCI
01:38:27<nicolas17>then my cablemodem didn't work anymore, despite being connected to a UPS, probably got fried via the coax cable rather than power
01:42:40<systwi_>Oh no, ouch. :-(
01:42:59<systwi_>I think some UPSes have a coax throughput for extra protection in those cases.
01:43:05<systwi_>Ethernet too IIRC.
01:43:21<nicolas17>ISP replaced it next day
01:43:47<systwi_>At least it wasn't something like a desktop with a bunch of data on it,
01:43:59<systwi_>s/,/./
01:44:44<systwi_>Now that I think about it, I think mine isn't connected like that. It's on a UPS but that's it.
01:45:15<systwi_>That UPS is a cheapy one that lacks such protection.
01:45:44<systwi_>IIRC my cablemodem is self-owned too.
01:52:22<nicolas17>idk if it's even possible to use my own modem
01:53:40<systwi_>I'm pretty sure it's possible, but may be dependent on your ISP.
01:55:26<nicolas17>yeah I'm sure it's possible technically, I mean in terms of ISP policies
01:55:31<nicolas17>it'd start at "why would you want to do that"
02:00:58<systwi_>In my case, my ISP wanted to charge me a monthly fee to use theirs, and just buying & owning my own outright had me break even within a couple years.
02:01:19<nicolas17>yeah that's silly
02:33:21<nukke>Pretty neat stuff https://www.lttlabs.com/articles/2026/03/01/samsung-galaxy-s26-ultra-privacy-display
