  • “Easier“, no. Not for the average person on the street.

    Don't get me wrong, I've built several NAS over the years (dropped OMV for just Arch and the packages I want) and loaded OpenWRT (etc) on routers

    But, building my own NAS, servicing my own car, repairing my own house, felling my own trees, at some point I'll just lack knowledge and buy something simple / pay someone to do it... and that's where cheap consumer electronics fits (unfortunately)

  • I love to see professionals in action.

    That's craft(wo)manship right there.

  • Ah, good call on using the power to get the tablet to respond... I don't have that problem (tablet freezing), but it does drop off the wifi sometimes.

  • It's just not quite yellow enough, esp. on 1 side where's it's been too close to a window... otherwise, yeah, bring back beige

  • Just a casual bystander with no clue what's going on... why's change.org a problem?

    Edit: ok, read more posts, understand now

  • I've done similar with an old Android tablet. Installed Fully Kiosk Browser to display the dashboard AND read the battery level - above 75%, switch off power...

    But... automations only trigger when going past the threshold once, so if there's a random issue where HA doesn't see the battery drop below 10%, (had that happen a few times in the past), then I also have multiple triggers for 5% and 2%... to turn the power back on again 😉

  • But the U.S. government’s moves to crack down on cheap e-commerce parcels from China have pushed sellers to rethink their business strategies.

    So, there's the problem then. If they made it all more expensive for the American consumer, then that solves the problem. /s

    On a serious note: it's obviously cheaper because there's no physical shop with no staff. Isn't this how Bezos started out, from a garage?

  • It's so sad when we all find these critical components are maintained by someone we'd just pass in the street... and then they're gone.

    Lovely to see the contributions on ko-fi

  • Wow. I'm going to have to try some of those out! Thanks

  • I think you've missed the point.

    Yes, they're looking to continue selling older titles and your point is that pirating / torrenting is free, but GoG are ensuring the game will actually run on a modern machine - the pirated ones will have problems (not even covering the potential malware ridden ones)

    I've been there, done it, got the t-shirt, the t-shirt faded, got ripped and is now a rag somewhere... this is a good move by GoG.

  • Gotta say, formatting of text isn't a high priority for me... I'm pinging someone about a thing, I'm not writing a presentation. Adding emojis is about as much as I need 🤔

    And - to me - adding people to an adhoc group call / chat is straight forwards - and finding those conversations later is too

    But, I believe that there's a few Corp IT settings that can be adjusted (we've recently lost the ability to add gifs for example), so maybe that's what's going wrong.

    But we're a long way from AOL IM 😉

  • I never even had an account...

  • About time they went metric

    /s

  • I'm curious if anyone's paying to support development (of either application)?

    I'm just about getting all my photos into my NAS, so will be looking at these myself soon

  • the company said it would start turning off Manifest V2 extensions

    ...in time for Black Friday & the holiday sales?

  • I seem to recall back in (the rose tinted synthpop) 90's that Notepad was an example of Visual Basic... or at least we created it on a training course...

    So, I'm surprised that anyone's done anything with it.

    It's probably gone from a 12kB .exe to a 2GB file with another 10GB of .dlls

  • Ooh, didn't know about this and I listen to music ~16 hours per day!

    Just need to capture it: No obvious collector for MythTV, so might have a problem there...

  • Interesting, I have those on my car and I actively avoid using them.

    It can't cope with anything more than a simple scenario (dim around car in front, deal with on coming car in other lane). If you also have pedestrians and vehicles on side junctions, then you burn their eyes.

    So, I'd assumed it was a US feature (straight, wide roads) brought over here

  • I can confirm that moving the disks to a very similar device will work.

    We recovered “enough” data from what disks remained of a Dell server that was dropped (PSU side down) from a crane. The server was destroyed, most of the disks had moved further inside the disk caddy which protected them a little more.

    It was fun to struggle with that one for ~1 week

    And the noise from the drives...
