Loved the Dreamcast. Other than the lack of DVD player, I still think it was better than the PS2.

Quite a few games that were released on both consoles looked better and played more smoothly on the Dreamcast than they did on the supposedly more powerful PS2. Dave Mirra BMX is one that immediately comes to mind. It was way better on the Dreamcast.

Once again you seem to be calling for not bothering with any security effort of there’s even a remote chance of some other vulnerability happening.

The whole point of security is that it’s always a multi-layered thing. Nobody sane is pretending that encrypting web traffic with HTTPS is a panacea that’s going to solve all your data security needs. But it is sure as hell a million times better than having all of your data transmitted in the clear, with absolutely no assurance that you’re are talking to the system you think you’re talking to, or that the data hasn’t been tampered with in transit.

And don’t pretend https is a huge burden. It’s dead simple to get SSL/TLS certs, and the additional load of encrypting and decrypting the traffic is barely even a rounding error on modern CPUs.

You know how I know you don’t know anything about security or computing?

I’ve been using FolderSync (Pro in my case) for many years to sync files (automatically and/or on-demand) from my phone to my Linux server.

AMD GPU just works, no fussing about, get straight to fragging on Xonotic and Counter Strike

Unless you have a monitor that requires HDMI 2.1 to get full resolution/refresh. Then it only works partially.

Don’t get me wrong, I love Linux, and I’ve been using it on my desktops/laptops for almost 30 years at this point.

But there are still issues to deal with on a regular basis, same as Windows or OSX.

Well again, I’m only using /24 chunks of it.

The main reason I went with it is that it’s far faster for me to type “10.0.x.x” than to type “192.168.x.x”, especially on the keypad.

I use 10.x.x.x addresses at home, though split into /24 networks in each vlan.

I have the same issue (TRIPLE NAT’d! One of which is the CGNAT). Unfortunately I have external family that accesses from media boxes/TVs so those won’t work for me.

Thankfully I was able to get a small VPS server for $2/mo and set up some reverse tunnels with auto-ssh. Seems to be working fairly well so far.

All that said, I longingly look forward to the future when I don’t have to worry about NAT.

“God works in mysterious ways”

I’m sure it flew right down his throat.

There were two.

1. Every time he farted it was awful so we’d shoo him out of the room. Eventually, he’d immediately walk out of the room right AFTER he farted.

2. We’d end the day watching TV in the living room. Eventually he learned that the click of the TV meant it was time to go to bed, so any time the TV got turned off, he’d get up and go into his bed in our bedroom.

I have the same issue with Keepass2Android. I think the issue is with Android itself rather than the password app.

Can we start the 1st on Sunday though so every month has a Friday the 13th?

I use proxmox mail gateway (PMG) for my homelab, configured to relay through my Gmail domain using smtp auth.

I’ve also used PMG at the enterprise level. Never had an issue with it.

It’s postfix underneath.

You don’t have to. There’s an openssh client available in powershell. Maybe when cmd, though I haven’t tried it.

Canon Rebel T6 with a 75-300mm lens (zoomed in to 300mm). This was one of the last shots right before I put the solar filter back on.

Yes and no. For the clouds that we did have, yes, the eclipse was enough to affect those.

However, for the clouds that we had earlier in the day, and that had been predicted that we might have, would have been far too heavy for eclipse to effect. Unfortunately my sister up in New York ended up in that situation, where it was far too heavy a cloud cover so they didn’t get to see anything. We had been predicted that we might have that, but that’s the manner in which we got lucky.

Growing up in west Texas, I talked to one uber-Baptist who for some unfathomable reason believed that the Catholics “worship Mary”, therefore they don’t follow the “there is only one God” rule and therefore aren’t Christian.

The only reason I ever got rid of my original brother laser printer is because computers stopped coming with parallel ports, and the adapters I tried all sucked.

2nd Brother laser printer is still going strong after 15yrs.

Are you updating Debian on a potato with every single one of the 74000+ packages installed? Because even on my slowest machines (going back decades) it’s never taken anywhere near that kind of time to complete a full version upgrade, let alone just an update.
