precious bandwidth?
how slow is your link?
I actually downgraded from 1G to 500M and it's still plenty available with 4 active users (netflix, streaming sports, music...).
actually I reckon the 1G was a ripoff, speed test showed pretty much same actual throughputs before and after to o'seas destinations regardless [me and other 3 users] active or quiet.

Holy sunshine. I habe a 20M and I'm LUCKY - it actually goes to 20M instead of 8 like in most places.
Anyway I don't use much bandwidth when working, mostly I need the VPN on for some sw licenses.

I've got a 20 that goes to 6 on a good day, yet it's still fast enough for most streaming and series downloads.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I have a feeling "...(nevermind)" not only has considerable backstory of an unpleasant nature, but that you and your wife are taking care of the poor girl. If so, good on you. It's sometimes hard to raise other people's kids.

Well the quick version is the mother is a tyrant verbally abusing her daughter(s) and husband constantly. The husband does not protect the daughters and supports his wife's abuse against them to protect himself from more abuse from his wife. The younger daughter destroys my son's girlfriend's stuff if she doesn't keep it at our house for safety. It's a mess but she doesn't want to cause any trouble for them so she just stays with us and endures the occasional abusive phone calls from her mother.

Unfortunately, it won't happen until .MED Core 2.0 comes out. You'll need it to "leverage" the devastating power of this new infection.

Better monitor than the one at work + HDMI switch so I can use my uber-powerful PC during the long build times (up to 40 minutes per build).
VPN was the customer's one and does not allow differential routing so being home makes me free to use Internet on my other PCs.
Wife is working in the next room, which makes for an improved work environment - I prefer 1000 times my wife to any number of coworkers. There is silence, which at work never is. Nobody peeks on what I'm doing or ambles back and forth behind me.
On top of everything, no longer 2 hours commute morning and evening, with much improved sleeping hours and stress finally levels in the green zone.

IMO not a problem if your house is big enough and you care to explain that your kids shouldn't enter your cabinet while you're working

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Wrong. Although my kid is that small that mom (my wife) just takes him outside for almost a whole day and he just sleeps there. So partially you're correct
Anyways I know enough people who cared to explain to their kids that daddy is busy and he shouldn't be interrupted while he works and as soon as daddy works in a dedicated room it should not be entered.
As for me it even turns out to be more convenient as when I need a break I can just leave my cabinet and approach my kid to play things with him one plays with toddlers
