Almost a chuckle

I must be old - it’s WordPerfect to me.

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…

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?)

I thought I was doing well with 8 down and 20 up! In my defence - a lot of the stuff I’m seeding is old (10+ years) and I’m the only seed.

Agree the editing looks good, but I don’t feel the template fits. I don’t think the orange one is capable of the realisation and self reflection depicted in the last panel.

I’m really dismayed by your political system - I can’t put into words how much it disturbs me. I know it’s a good thing that the Harris Walz campaign is doing well, but all I hear when seeing news like this is how much money politicians are taking from “average” people to give to insanely rich advertising firms, to develop ads, and even more insanely rich media corporations, to run them. It’s messed up.

Wow, that brings back memories. Slackware 3.x was my into to Linux in the '90s.

No, I didn’t.

I feel this should be a Lemmy capability and not client specific? I’d like to see it too - I feel like I’m somehow disrespecting all these interesting looking communities just because I can’t understand the language.

But there’s no future profit for Sonos in them providing the ability for us to play music we already own from our own library.

There was an unofficial option for rollback - I’m on Android so I went to apkmirror and downloaded the last good version and turned off auto update. This worked for a while, but then they forced me to update - it literally said I had to update to continue using. I’ve seen someone say this wasn’t actually a forced update, but rather keeping all the parts of your network in sync. I have one Sonos device and my phone is the only things that connects to it??

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.

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.

Wow - I’d forgotten about Flickr

Food looks good!

I’m in the process of replacing all my mp3 (including a lot of V0 and 320) with FLAC. I know that most of the time I can’t tell the difference, but I did some testing and in some scenarios with some music I could tell. And, at the size of music files, disk is cheap.

Yeah, it’s good news but to put it in perspective - my really rough, and probably wrong, math puts that at 0.03% of the net worth of the 10 richest people combined.

They don’t need to target millionaires, it’s the billionaires they need to hit.

My son has just signed up to a new retailer where he pays wholesale rates (he understands the risks) and for half an hour yesterday afternoon they were paying him 13¢/kWh to take it!
