Hai!

Just rewatching The Terminator to check my Tailnet and a family members Jellyfin

Can confirm it's working, good 🥳

Thanks for doing this as peeps need a place to chat even if I'm been nostalgic lazy.

Sticker repository? lol, Telegram has that market cornered and you know it :)

https://matrix.org/ is probably the only reasonable solution to your problem but reading between the lines you're inferring that Telegram is dead in the water.

I'm a popcorn fanantic and await to see the, corns?

Yep yep I bought a family member a couple of those fancy GLi routers that come with AdGuard built in.

It's scary what a household's tracked without it would look like, and they are none the wiser to the shit getting sinkholed to this day thankfully.

I'm down to 10% bollocks via NextDNS

and aim to bring it down further by dumping any apps/services that want to bum fugg me.

I felt like a right noobie when one of my colleagues said he'd got a Pixel tablet via the Play Store and asked him how he'd won it.

Apparently I don't install and play shittons of games like them.

£500 was tempting to look into it further but as you say, that news pissed me off because I now know my mum is gonna install some bullshit that one of those guys might have picked up on.

I think one thing that's missing from the equation is testing and licensing to ride/drive them.

I know it's an English forum here but you need to have a set of cojones to "drive" an escoot/EUC on our roads and I only use it to travel the short distance to work.

I've gone down arterial roads suited up with live Bradford traffic, and it's not for the faint of heart lemmi tell ya :/

Why even bother pretending anymore or putting on this charade. It’s the same thing over and over again.

If one puts an indeterminate amount of red tape around an object / thing / thought, does one become entangled in said red tape?

It's something that's irking me.

I've been a bicyclist, car driver, drive for a living and also have a VSett that goes a steady 35mph max which means I can lane check but, because I can't fugging insure the thing means I'm always looking over my shoulder if I need to dump some keen eager copper.

I'm starting to think of selling it so I can get a eBike Surron instead and blend in with the local wildlife around here.

We use a fair few shared mobile phones at work and while it has WiFi / unlimited mobile data is used solely as an absence line number because some of my fellow colleagues don't have home internet, actively disable their mobile data (because they use a SMS / Call package only), and really can't get their head around "the nets"/Whatsapp and don't, want to, either.

Which I agree with to an extent since Whatsapp can suck my plums too. They exist and quite a few of them apparently.

There is a bonus to this thou since I get to call them names because of their neanderthal ways...

No fuggin doubt.

And you know what irks me more is when you buy things from places like eBay or other third party seller websites (where you've consented to their cookies/terms) your email address you use with them is then in the hands of a goofball who's had their personal business PC been compromised.

The few times I use eBay the email addy I use on their sees my inbox flooded. Fucking shitshow.

I'm aware of that, but I'm just pointing out many websites do not give you the consent options as stated above which imo are much more annoying.

It's not just a warning, it's also an option to reject.

Some don't give you an option, but actually have a much cleaner interface imo.

Whether or not it's better since you still have to click OK, some don't let you reject them at all.

That's kinda weird.

I've had a Meme11 Lite for a couple of years now and just bought another Poco. I don't see no ads whatsoever, after I told Wallpaper Carousel to not nag me no more.

Alright I use NextDNS across router / device level but like I say I get none of these complaints and think it's global releases for some?

Can we get some sourced links on this outside of "Branch is bad"?

As far as I know many apps use it and while Neo Launcher has seen me right, the woo har about Nova being Satan seems odd in the context of your reply.

Cheers.

I'm a capt' three phones at the moment

While I've had my backup Samsung M12 with a 1pmobile SIM in my work locker for a couple of years now simply as an emergency backup, I'm also currently rocking two Xiaomi's so I can test remote connections to a family members server via work WiFi/Tailscale.

My main issue is while I wear cargo pants at work, carrying two phones is more wieldy than you'd think and there's also something else I did notice the other day with the Find My Device news.

I forgot where, I left my main phone the other day and my locker is a literal Faraday cage according to FMD? 10 minutes of panic :/

It's just an app, not a lifestyle. 🤷

Now apply that thought to VLC and how many distros and apps use their libraries.

I almost just want a cheap piece of crap dumb phone

Looked into a KaiOS device? Not entirely dumb, GMaps is only the web version so no voice navigation etc.

But might be something of interest to ya?

There is no argument, you're just a prat that likes to call people names when they surface bullshit.

I'd apologise if you could fathom what goes on with your feed but I also know masochists like this bullshit in their feed and bickering about it.

Have fun!

Believe me I will do, and there's no harm in calling it out since it's completely off topic to our fine nation.

But your bait with name calling is again, telling. Hope your thumb gets better :(

No they don't.

Also, it's nice to make easy tags against agenda based instance users piling in with uncivil remarks.

Really telling, and appreciated.

Tell ya agenda based posters stand out like a sore thumb and I've seen these accounts far too many times modding over on lel weddits.

Sent a couple of reports in for this 1 week old account, might be wise to fire some more in?

We also have KFC and McDonald's, but does that mean a study from the US about them should be posted here too?

It's really not on topic especially since it's coming from an Australian study?

What's this got to do with the UK exactly?

You'd think they'd include an ethernet port on the device itself.

Or, hopefully they include a power brick with a RJ45 port. WiFi for streaming large high bitrate files is less than ideal especially if it's touted as a set top streaming box.

Very true.

I generally just use my ceramic bladed hair cutter on 0 when I'm not required to have a clean, clean shave, and then like I say above just use a BIC when I need a baby's bum face for work etc.

The twin / triple blades I find can be off-putting to some since if you have too much growth they latch on and snag.

APKMirror uses the hash from the Play Store to verify they're serving you the legit apk.

It's been around for years, the owner is very keen about their little baby, but relies on adverts. If you can put up with the latter you're gucci

Yeah, we've got something I recall being called the P-laws or something brought in, meaning all new sockets need to be a certain height above floor level.

I've seen many rented houses here that still have them on the floor since older builds ain't required to rectify them. Scary if you see all the recent flooding we've been having in some parts of the country :/

But those three pin / fused BS 1363 whilst been one of the safest sockets you can get, I can confirm they're an absolute bastard if you stand on one.

Personally, I never learned how to use a razor

🤔

Alright. Ima be ur daddy and tell you have to shave in 3 minutes flat.

• Acquire some BIC single blade razors

• Head to shower, put it on steaming hot and apply steaming hot water to face. Getting a hot towel after getting out of the shower and leaving it on your face for a while makes a tough shave even moar comfortable.

• Lather shaving foam all over face

• Run BIC razor under cold running water and shave until your face is like a baby's bum

• Rinse thoroughly with cold water to remove all lather

As a Britbong, I'm always proud of not only BS1363 and the safety it has brung us over the years but the fact that I know that number off the top of my head.

I usually have a goldfish memory for things like that.

Ah I see, that's pretty cool. Suppose it's just the look of their website that reminded me of a knock off site or something.

While I've used ClamAV and knew they had a Windows app as well as other platforms I've never heard of the above website, and it smells funny to me.

https://www.clamav.net/downloads

ClamAV has been around for years, and I'd throw caution to the wind with the above Windows executable from ClamWin......

Just had a nosey, that DSM 923 (Vs 423) doesn't have a discreet GPU.

What rules are you putting on your downloads from the arrr's, and do you find some struggle to transcode w/ Jellyfin?

I've had to lower the rules since it got silly trying to transcode 80GB+ files over the puny specs of the DSMs > N100 SFF box I'm testing with, and use them solely for NAS / arrrrrs. I still need to invest a little more I think :/

That's what I've been curious about, but even still on a DSM 223 & 418 I've found them alright to an extent running Radarr/Sonarr/Transmission.

I did however run into problems trying to use them via Container Manager aka Docker on the DSM's.

Jellyfin thou is definitely best run on something that can transcode media and the DSM's are definitely not cut out for that, and if your Windows PC has an Intel processor will see you having less issues. Good luck you ;)

Maybe try it the other way like I've done?

Put the arrr stack + qbit on your Syn drive, mount the shares via NFS, and then use Jellyfin on your Windows PC?

edit: or, like you're saying you're wanting qbit behind your Mullvad put that on your Windows PC and tell Sonarr/Radarr that's where the Download Client is

Are you running Jellyfin on the NAS as well as the arrr stack?

Also which Synology NAS do you have exactly and as someone else asked, what client / box are you using to access it with?

I've got a couple of Synology boxes and only run Radarr/Sonarr/Transmission on them and that's it - Jellyfin is on another SFF PC and I've also been thinking of taking Transmission out of the Syn boxes since it nails them on large & multiple downloads.

Love it, thank you so much for the giggle.

As someone brought up initially in a primary RC school I always find the fact that while they had a top notch reputation for giving you a "better education" than general comprehensive schools really ironic because their science dept actually taught me, that there are no fairies in the sky and it's actually where we end up, as Earth burps 🌨️

I for one welcome these chaplins, elves, and umpa lumpas in our RC schools. Gives a bit of diversity.

*typo

I wonder if what you could do is look into a Stingray device and plonk that in your car to make it to connect to that instead of local cell towers?

edit: whoa, I just looked at the prices of them. Surely there's something a clever Trevor could put together here.....

edit II: As someone else mentioned, Femtocells.

I've always wondered about buying one years ago but they seem like a rarity here these days. Also, manipulating that data / telemetry to show you in Antarctica has got to be on someone's fun list?

Telegram.

So, I just had a gander myself and this is pretty involved

https://github.com/RikudouSage/LemmySchedule

Maybe there's some existing thing I'm missing but it would be cool :/

Yeah no doubt, and that's why I like Tailscale.

I just map all users Tailnet visitors to guest, and give me r/w and all others r/o.

Bugs me though that they could include it, with big red flashy warnings like you get enabling USB debugging.

I keep pondering why Android has blobs for CIFS/SMB but not NFS, too.

Still haven't found a legit reason why.
