You could call them a literal gem eh?

…I’ll see myself out

ninja edit: Hell, even a Chromebook will see you right with some of your other complaints in this thread about Taskbars etc. Unless of course you’re averse to anything Corp / they spying on you in which case you’re fucked anyhoo.

Dreamplayer on Android and Android TV is pretty cool for TVH servers, albeit they want you to pay for each app and have a rather appropriate username

But as others have said LiveTV on Jellyfin sucks and can be used instead with VLC and other apps / resources.

Nah.

USB is slow, and will kill the drive if used 24/7. I know it’s hard to expend too much money on a dedicated box for storage but long term you’ll thank yourself for investing.

3TB of data I lost and paying to recover that data? Dammit, hindsight is a bitch

Says on the product page that that Beelink supports a maximum 2TB SSD, so I wouldn’t go buying another unless you’re sure it can.

As others have said, no USB drives as I’ve had a failure with one too hence me now having a NAS. I know you said you’re allergic to spending money but saving up for one was the best thing I’ve bought for a while.

Fraid not.

I recall worrying about MAC address tracking one time and using Chainfire’s MAC privacy app, but that’s a non factor now since they’re randomised by default on Android on the most recent versions.

You know, I’d 99% of the time agree with you but has anyone else tried out the little (travel?) routers from GL-iNet?

Their default router interface ain’t half bad at all, and if you do need to use Luci you can simply do that too

I bought a couple of them for a family member and they haven’t poked me once for help with them.

I’d be curious how many account holders in the UK have actually been prosecuted for copyright infringement.

In nearly two decades with the same ISP (Telewest > Blueyonder > VirginMedia) I’ve had a grand total of two emails from them with no teeth in it, and still download what I want from public trackers to this day.

I get an actual letter from them? Yay, free toilet paper!

Or stop uploading screenshots altogether.

Main thing is Capt, you’re here to tell us your best stories.

Tell us your most favourite food please, and how you came across it? Mine’s carbonara and an Italian girlfriend who loved that shit.

Ya know, it is kinda ironic these days with the great views 1 mile each way and the cheaper prices compared to the rest of our homeland :p

Obligatory

I’m a lad from Bradford, in the UK.

And it kinda rhymes.

I’d posit those numbers are much, much higher, and some guys who used to do our Megathreads over in r/Android now keep getting random bots commenting against months, even posts - https://archive.is/OmW0f

I spotted em years ago over in their many test subreddits and reddit actually outsourced them as a QA testing.

In a world of hate for the 3.5mm jack and lack, of it (I’m an Android nerd)?

👌

I had to leave VirginMoney because the lady on the phone told me I needed an iPhone to reset my password (seriously) even after trying with three separate Android devices.

There’s no desktop functionality (mobile is king with them) and it amazed me that day I had to use the Current Account Switcher to go to an equally meh banking service.

Sorry state of affairs across all mobile apps to be honest and as seen by the prevalence of MDM and accessing data Vs doing the very same, on a desktop “PC”. Why the data is more precious on a mobile device to them is telling…

Ah damn, I didn’t even check the reviews albeit the ones on this listing smell like poopey fake reviews.

In regards to charging them thou, they shouldn’t require a separate charger since they’ll charge up in the earbud right?

edit: in fact, I think they use these 1054’s instead

Tenner, for a ten pack of them ;)

Who the fuck are these guys OP?

My immediate manager is fine and like I said above, half of their managers could be given the chopping block but that doesn’t mean I need to find new employment as you suggest. I quite like my job since I can walk it there, work outside all day with wonderful views even if the weather does get a bit poop sometimes.

In fact it tells me you’re relatively sheltered with experience in workplaces if you think most places don’t have lazy ass managers, office drones (I like this term), and good luck asking if they even have them during an interview.

Nah, I wouldn’t want to become an office drone because I’d go from calling people on the internet liars to then trying to give others career advice when they don’t even know 2% of my job.

Hilarious, the self-righteousness must come from being an office drone, right?
