You could turn off the DHCP server on your router and let your server handle it. You can then tell your clients to use Pi hole via the DHCP running on your server
I have a friend who’s in the computer repair business. He uses PNY drives because out of the hundreds he’s installed, he’s yet to see one come back with a faulty drive, unlike some of the other brands he’s tried like Kingston. He gets the base size and base speed drives as his customers tend not to use a lot of data.
I had a friend who had a SanDisk and it also failed. I also think SanDisk thumb drives suck.
I’ve seen many Kingston drives at work fail, which I think is interesting because their thumb drives are some of the best. Actual USB 3 speeds and built well.
I had one around 2012-2013 and it failed on me. I had issues with it throughout its life but I didn’t realise it was the drive until I upgraded to a Samsung.
I wish he didn’t ramble as much as he does. Most of his videos could be a quarter of the length.
When I searched for a cheap VPS I settled on IONOS’s XS package (this 1€/month). It’s one of the cheapest out there. Bonus is that it’s a company we all recognise and can reasonably trust. And there are no weird gimmicks either; it’s just straight forward.
One thing missing from this XS package compared to their other packages from IONOS is that there is no resource monitor on their web panel, which can be useful if you don’t want to set up your own.
I’m not deleting them. They’re uploaded to the cloud at the time of creation. I also move them off my phone to my computer every 6 months or so - I do this just in case the upload to the cloud has ever silently failed. I deduplicate the images, so I don’t have multiple versions of the same image with different file names.
For me it’s not entirely about space. I rarely let the device get more than 2/3rds full. It’s also about speed. If I want to pull a photo/video off my phone, it seems sluggish when there are thousandths of files in that one directory.
I’m using a 128GB phone and it’s never full. But I export photos And videos off it once every 6 months. If I didn’t I’d need 1TB phone.
Apparently the files were never deleted. The issue was something failed with a temp profile during the update process for some users. I don’t care enough to read on it further. That’s good enough in my opinion and not a reason to avoid Windows.
I haven’t experienced the missing files issue on any of the machines I use, nor have the people I know. I guess the missing files thing is when some people set up their directories in a specific unusual way.
On a couple of machines my personal directories are in the default locations and on one machine there on a separate drive.
This is what I was already comparing. Ugreen make thinner cables?
There was a submission made about how few people donate to the Devs. I asked about transparency and some links were given that show some things. I commented that it’s not as transparent as it seems at first glance and they responded that it’s fully transparent. I asked them to clarify but they decided to ignore me. I see why the Devs get criticism.
I think you got the response we all expected you’d get.
I wonder why we don’t hear about open source anti-virus even though I think there are a couple of them out there.
Thanks for the suggestion and the offer. Both are appreciated.
Do you have any reading material suggestions with usenet?
Private trackers sound like hard work. Sounds like you pay a fee to have access to the tracker and you need to have a good upload ratio to not be kicked out.
I’ve got nothing against the owner of adsb.fi, but the owner pulled their data out of the community and wanted to go solo… or that’s the stories I’ve heard, which might be biased against the owner.
Adsb.fi and airplanes.live were once in the same Discord server and worked together for several months rebuilding the community when adsbexchange sold out. I believe the original plan was to create a community where no one person could sell out and rug pull all of the donated data again, but I believe the owner of adsb.fi, Samuli, decided to take his data out of the community and go solo.
I’ve only heard one side of the story and so it might be biased against Samuli.
I would join his Discord server as well but I’ve used all of my server slots. It’s a bit ridiculous of Discord to limit the servers a person can join, especially those who pay $10 for Discord nitro.
As a comparison against Anker, the cables are thinner - almost as thin as the cheap unbranded cables. Or at least this is what my ugreen cables are like.
Unfortunately people don’t see voting systems as a method to highlight the relavency of a contribution. They see it as a like/dislike system, and so I see as shut up signal used by most because downvoting a contribution buries it to the bottom where few people will see it.
If it was used for relevancy and quaility then communities would be self regulating by the users. I believe Reddit’s guidelines state(s/d) it’s voting system was meant to be for relevancy, even though most people use it as a like/dislike system.
