  • Is that the same i as the squareroot of -1?

  • If you're able to, use GeoIP ranges to only allow access from the countries you want.

    That immediately limits a lot of everything

    Then - again if you're able to - use a block list that covers known scrapers in case they're in your country.

    I use pfBlockerNG on my pfSense firewall for exactly this.

  • I think they meant they're not a fan of Windows and having to update those programs individually...

  • Not brush, but flexible gromit strips will do the edge protection bit.

    Then, dunno, postbox / door draught excluder brushes?

  • Ah, Ok, yeah Arch on ARM is struggling at the moment

    I have / had some Ras Pis on it, but they wrapped up .. Pi0? a while back, so had to look at Raspbian (or whatever it's called now)... I'd not considered Gentoo for them... hmmm

    Maybe I'll check that out

    Thanks

  • Interested in why you went back to Gentoo after Arch.

    I use Arch (btw) and tried Gentoo back in the day, but it's always in the back of my mind that compiling source could be "better"...?

  • I believe some manufacturers allow end users to claim the license cost back.

  • Do check the manufacturer's T's & C's - you might need Windows if returning for hardware issues.

    I take a full disk image of a new computer before powering it up, so that I can restore it exactly as it was when purchased.

  • Take a backup and go for it.

    Personally, I ditched OMV for standard Arch Linux and just added the packages I wanted...

  • This

  • Personally, I think it's the best advertising point of these devices - "effortlessly" making your phone fully charged again.

    That single (non-verbal) action has made more people reconsider their choice of phone than anything else.

  • This was great... great find and genius idea.

  • Yeah, I do get it - I pulled a (single) photo off my phone recently and it took "a second" (ie slurp of coffee), which - to me - is fine.

    But, yeah, if I was browsing them all and copying loads... I get your point.

  • Which is exactly what I recently did with my 3+... all charging issues now solved and I didn't have to spend days reconfiguring a new phone to how I like it

  • Yeah, me too.

    t's great ripping off the back of the phone and swapping a battery whilst all the iMoan users are staring in disbelief, tethered to the power outlets

  • But, how often do you use it for bulk file transfer though?

    Everything on my phone's transferred over wifi with syncthing... or https://pairdrop.net/ (etc)

  • Yeah, but as the old saying goes, if you like something you'll tell 1 person, if you don't like something you'll tell 10 people...

    I do agree, their support is really bad and they've acknowledged that. Whether it's true or not, they're saying they're struggling to keep up due to demand...

    All I can say is, my experience was completely positive.
