After recently upgrading from v24 to 25.12.2 a few older wireless routers on my DMZ I was blown away by how much more stable v25 is.

The new apk upgrade and memory management are out of this world compared to v24 and the constant watchdog restarts it was suffering from.

I can even see in the munin memory monitoring charts these beautiful straight lines for used/cache/buffers/committed and gone are the erratic ups and downs and watchdog triggered restarts every week or so.

v25 is rock solid as a wireless router firmware, not doing anything too flash with them just a few older routers in a mesh.

I know it has been out for a while and was sitting on the fence but glad I upgraded, and the only hiccup was that I had to manually reinstall muninlite and xinetd but it was so worth the price.

Huge thank you to everyone contributing to this and making it possible for us to be free of manufacturers locked firmware.

I have always been puzzled why some men when they accept a handshake proceed to take a hold of your fingers, and grip/crush them instead of a hand palm to hand palm shake.

Don’t understand why, is it because they don’t know how to shake hands or don’t want to or are afraid to?

The fingers grip is the way a lady does it when they initiate one which is a soft hand touch with the fingers or fingertips.

Those I understand and respect as I usually reciprocate but it is impossible when someone grabs your fingers before you had a chance to lock in a grip and proceeds to crush them in a grip.

I have even had men do the same which again I accept and respect and reciprocate but to this day the fingers grip and crush is a mystery.

I will stop trying to shake hands moving forward unless someone else initiate it because I am starting to think that maybe they are unwelcome and the fingers crush is their way of expressing their displeasure.
