The clock is only useful if the time is correct. They could at least put a small super capacitor in there to keep the time during short power outages.

I wish they didn’t even have clocks. The darn thing resets every time there’s a big gust of wind.

It still works in Firefox if you switch to the desktop site. You can also use uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock with it to get rid of the ads.

MeshCore runs at 2.73 kbps and it can send a short text message in a fraction of a second. The short turbo preset on Meshtastic is 21.88 kbps, but that’s still too slow for images. The higher speed reduces the range by quite a bit too.

For images, you would be better off using WiFi HaLow, which runs several mbps on 900 MHz.

If you have a ham license, there is HamWAN and ARDEN as well. They are fast enough to stream live video. They can work over long distances, but the high gain antennas have to be aimed carefully.

It’s not going to make a very good NAS. It looks like it only has USB 2 and 100M ethernet. That’s going to be slower than the NAS I built with the Pentium 4 desktop I got for free in 2007.

The DNS authoratative servers are what hold all of the records for your domain. With Cloudflare, you are stuck with theirs. As for why you want to use a different one, maybe you need more than the 200 records Cloudflare limits you to. Maybe you don’t like the way their API works for automating updates. Maybe you don’t want to set up all of your records all over again if you transfer your domain to another registrar. Maybe you just don’t like Cloudflare.

A .com domain should be under USD $12 a year with WHOIS privacy included. If someone is charging more than that, they are ripping you off. Most web or VPS hosts will charge a significant markup if they sell domains. Make sure you check the renewal price too. Some registrars will give you the first year cheap, then charge significantly more to renew it.

Cloudflare is the cheapest, but they force you to use their DNS servers. Porkbun is a dollar more, but you can use your own DNS if you want to.

Get a CCTV camera for it. Make sure it supports ONVIF. An IP camera can be run 100 meters on CAT5.

Trail cams are not intended for remote viewing. They are battery powered and a remote connection would drain the batteries quickly.

Depending on the workload, compression may be an option. You can use zram or zswap to basically get more RAM at the expense of increased CPU usage.

As long as you are using your own domain, you can move to a different host and keep your email addresses.

The executives need prison time. That’s the only thing that will get them to stop their bots from killing people.

Yes, adb pull transfers from the phone to the computer.

Adb is a command line program. To copy your music folder from home on your PC to internal storage on your phone, you would just open a terminal abd type adb push ~/Music /sdcard. Pressing tab will autocomplete folder and file names. For some reason /sdcard on android is actually the internal storage. If you have an SD card, it will be in /storage/card_name, where card_name is the UUID of the partition on the card.

You do have to enable USB debugging on your phone before you can use adb to transfer files though.

Yeah, MTP is worthless. I always use adb push if I need to transfer a lot of stuff.

There are seedboxes that start around USD $5 a month.

How fine are you sanding it? Coarse sandpaper makes the PETG turn white and fuzzy. That goes away after wet sanding with 400 to 600 grit. I usually go up to 2000 grit to get a smooth surface. The color is still quite a bit lighter after sanding though.

They haven’t been selling anything that cheap since the AI driven hard drive shortage. A refurbished 12TB drive is around $200 now.

Different games use different types of DRM. If the game just uses the basic Steam DRM, you can remove it with Steamless. If it uses something else, you have to wait for someone to crack it or for a DRM free release.

I lost all interest in it when stations started putting DRM in their over the air channels. It would have been a great upgrade if the FCC would have banned DRM and encryption.

It’s DNS over TLS.
