Smart move, I always keep mine under the table.

But what's wrong with just being more careful with your pockets? A cup on the bench can get bumped and spill just as easy. For a quick field strip, my pocket is faster and works fine if I just keep coins out.

I have to question how critical this really is for a typical home setup. Default passwords are a known issue, but the chance of a random attack on your home network is slim. Most hackers are after bigger targets with more valuable data. The hassle of changing router passwords often can lead to forgotten credentials and connection problems. Setting a strong password once and checking it yearly might be enough for real safety. Overdoing it just creates needless work for very little added protection.

That "found common ground" thing is key. I see it all the time now, like people who used to just yell about politics online actually talking at the gym and realizing they agree on some basic stuff. Or my friend who hated vegan food until his sister cooked a meal for him and he got why she made the choice. A lot of these big debates just need a real conversation over lunch to break down the walls.

Ever think that farm is fair trade without the label?
