If you’re seeding more than one file to more than one concurrent user, chances are, your drive needs to switch around and buffer quite a bit left and right to get the material you’re seeding cached. That sounds like fairly formal behavior.

They enforced the verification, but discord was supposed to delete the images right after.

Yup. I’m on my second now because of an international relocation, but the first one is still going strong at my dad’s. Bought that thing 14 years ago, was the first series that came with network enabled printing instead of USB (though it has a port).

Thanks, maybe time to try again. I used it years ago but the results were not great.

What are you using now? I’ve been toying with kagi for a while, but the idea of having to use an account that ties all my searches to me doesn’t sit well with my sense of privacy, and none of the others get results remotely close to google.

You think? That generation will have kids who buy the same crap and won’t listen to their parents, just like the kids now don’t listen.

China is prosperous, don’t let anybody fool you. But people are deeply, inherently selfish and love money more than everything (yay, communism!), so if they can save 30 cents by taking a roll of toilet paper home, they will.

As someone who lived in China for 7 years, the alternative is that the next best person who enters the bathroom takes all available paper home.

In my entire time there, I can count the number of times where paper was available on a single hand, with spare fingers.

Naturally, everybody carries a box of tissues at all times.

NewPipe as well, without any update either.

What’s that supposed to be? Never seen those before, and I’m in my 40s.

Nice, another of those shit platforms nobody needs is dead.

Patience, young Padawan. Patience.

There are clients with a “stop seeding” button that works prior to finishing the download. Just sayin’. Still seeds while it’s active, but stops right after.

Huh? Downloading an apk and clicking open with -> package installer is nothing but straightforward.

Some Xiaomi TVs have root exploits, so you can manually disinfect the OS, but it’s cumbersome to get done since you need to enter adb commands over the remote control to get there in the first place.

Easier to just use an external device and the TV as a screen only. Personally I’m using the Nvidia Shield for 5+ years now and regret nothing.

Can you install generic apks on UBports, or only precompiled .deb packages and other native Linux applications?

You can get Android phones with reasonable specs around $200. No need for the so called “flagships”.

I’m wearing my smartwatch as a wristwatch. All notifications are off, but I see the temperature, UV index, step and calorie counters, which is nice. And if I ever want to review my sleep data, pulse, sPO2 saturation and location history, I got it available just in case. And for the very rare case that my phone is charging and I want to access messages from another room, I can do that manually.

I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad idea. Too many people are still not backing up their data, and the article says “…automatically save to OneDrive or your preferred cloud destination”.

As long as they really give users full freedom to choose any cloud service, I consider that a win.

If you bought it outside of China that might be a thing, for Chinese phones it shows a cancel button only. There is a confirm button, but it’s greyed out and not clickable.
