Where do you live that Antarctica is “up”?
Once an end-to-end, encrypted, connection is established between a pair of peers then anything can be sent through it. The establishment proces is generally facilitated by a server of some description so neither peer needs to allow inbound connections. (I’m a long, long way from being an expert on this and happy to be corrected - but this seems like network fundamentals?)
This makes me so angry. I have a nice Sony TV that I paid a lot (for me) of money for in 2021. Since I bought it they’ve been sneeking in more and more ads - when I bought was just when they started with the viewing “recommendations” (even though the things they recommend were often on services I didn’t subscribe to), then some of the recommendations started to be for Kia cars etc. and now just last week we got a fucking full screen, with volume, ad for a McFlurry when we turned it on!
I’ll be pulling my old NVIDIA shield out soon. I’m hoping there is an ad free android tv I can flash onto it and put the TV permanently on HDMI 1.
It’s a 3 way tie between Back in Black, Led Zeppelin II and Wish You Were Here.
On a Commodore64?
I recently learned this, and changed mine to English only. I still see non-English communities in All. I suspect it’s up to community owners to set the language of their community and a lot don’t?
WP 5.1 on DOS for me. Kids these days and their fancy WYSIWYG.
My issue was specifically the windows sync client - not server or web related. I turned on debug in the client and watched the logs and saw it making stupid (IMHO) decisions about speed throttling.
I’m in a similar situation - I’m a (retired) Unix admin and have Linux servers at home but I’m still on windows for my desktop because of OneDrive. If you use it as intended, it works really well. I can login to my laptop, my phone or either of my wife’s PC’s and all my stuff is just there.
Yes, I’ve tried nextcloud and it’s close, but the windows sync client is (was?) broken - the upload speed throttling logic is broken and it was going to take ages to sync my data. I went to the nextcloud community and it seemed to be a known issue that know one cares about because the sync just happens in the background and it’s done when it’s done.
As I typed this I realised that if I move to Linux desktop I don’t care about the windows sync client :-) So now I’ve just got the issue that I won’t get my wife off windows and if we’re paying for 5TB of cloud storage, I might as well use it. Yes, I know there are ways to use OneDrive on Linux, but it doesn’t look as seamless and I’d be always concerned that Microsoft will do something to break it.
Is the +C “new”? I have a B.Sc majoring in mathematics. Now I graduated over 30 years ago and I never used much that I leaned in my degree during my career - so I couldn’t differentiate or integrate to save my life today. But, the equations at least look familiar. The +C does not.
Or, the adrenaline triggers me to tell my boss I can’t do this any more, get up and walk out of a client meeting and not answer any calls from work for a few days.
You’re probably about my age. I was just late getting into computers. First attempt at university was dumb terminals connected to some Unix host. Failed everything and dropped out. Went back a few years later and had 8086 based PCs booting DOS off diskettes.
Took a while, but I found “me”. Slackware 3.1 was 3 or 4 boxes of floppies if I remember correctly. A full box, or more maybe, for X!
fvwm2?
And, F-Droid shows apps that were installed from the Play Store.
It blows my mind that they need to do this with physical phones. I would have thought they could virtualise/emulate everything needed.
What’s going to stop you from taking over?
Sane, rational people don’t want to take over anything. We just want to vote for reasonable governments, let said government get on with governing and get on with our lives. We don’t want to be bombarded with all this political bullshit everywhere we turn - MAGA stickers and Fuck Biden stickers, you can’t open any comment thread on any public social media post without some idiot blaming Biden for the most ridiculous things.
Since the growth of the internet and social media these right wing nazi fucktards have figured out they can weaponise their followers to take over anything at any level and with your attitude to this site that’s exactly what I predict will happen there.
You clearly didn’t use it for long enough - I was “stuck” with it for over 20 years. I wouldn’t say I liked it, but it was so familiar I couldn’t dislike it.
That was my first thought when I saw it too, but I went and looked and was reminded how bad my geography knowledge is!
There’s really not much in the southern hemisphere. I spent most of my life in Australia and generally thought of Africa and South America as being down under with us, but 2/3 of Africa is above the equator and even 10% of South America is “north”.
So, it sounds like this isn’t expected behaviour? Now that I’ve gone looking for examples, I can’t find any. Maybe there was some temporary problems yesterday…
