Is there a link on an official government website for this? Anyone can create one of these Microsoft questionnaires so it’s important people know this is legitimate especially since this is just asking for personal information

They mention these may not work and a solution

(Some people have issue connecting. LEMON is investigating. For now, use Firefox or change your DNS server)

It looks like they’re no longer updating it and directing people to Lemon now over at Link: lemon-manuals.la or lemon-manuals.org.ua

Plex was good for music for me until it started acting weirdly a few months ago. It started scanning my library nonstop and running my hard drives on full speed for days before I eventually caught it.

I was told it was the agent from Plex but changing that out didn’t fix the issue so I moved my stuff off there and have been working with Navidrome instead.

I have tried it but having Plex handle the out-of-home routing for me securely is a great feature Jellyfin doesn’t have but doesn’t for obvious reasons and I justify that as why I pay Plex. I have thoughts and better knowledge now about how to properly implement it, but I’m not sure I want to rebuild my current setup that just works with very minimal upkeep.

That and I am on someone else’s Plex server who updates it much more than I do. Mine just supplements theirs with stuff they don’t have and one-offs I’ve wanted and found. I’d still be using Plex even if I did rebuild with Jellyfin today.

But if these price increases keep coming, I may make the switch. It’s tempting to shell out the money for the lifetime membership, but I don’t have faith in companies, including Plex, to keep up their end of the deal on these things.

Fuck off pedo

I believe this wouldn’t be as simple on iPhone because there is no easy way to do the restore like that on the phone itself.

DFU mode could be used but you’d need to a computer to finalize the restore process and somewhere along the lines will require your Apple ID credentials. Either in iTunes/Finder or when setting up the phone after restore.

Unless the owner has relinquished their account from the phone, then this may be possible using that method.

But having a SIM lock is still an extra layer of protection against these kinds of attacks.

Mainly that it’s a custom ARM processor, not your standard x86 architecture like the Intel processors were that were also available in non-Apple hardware.

macOS runs extremely well on it and I think there’s not much demand for a custom Linux distro because of that. Plus the fact that your favorite distro would have yet another architecture they would have to support by adding this in. Asahi is an exception because the team spent time doing it but I haven’t heard of any others getting Linux distros created for it yet. As time goes on and the prices decrease, we’ll start to see more teams dedicating time to creating Linux distros that support it.

+1 on Mac mini as well. I just checked OfferUp in my area and M1-M5 are insanely expensive ($500+, M1 coming out about 6 years ago) but really good machines especially for their size and decent on power consumption too.

But downside of a M series is either you run macOS or Asahi Linux and nothing else yet.

So go for the Intel Mac Minis which are much cheaper and can run nearly any Linux distro with little to no issues as you would on a Windows PC. I’m seeing $50 range in my area as well. Older are good because RAM can be upgraded on some of them, but not all. Would be wise to do research on whichever seems right.

You could sell the RAM sticks on eBay. There are a few similar listings I’ve seen in the past and generally people looking to collect for old hardware or those who will strip them for gold will be interested in buying in a large bulk quantity like what you have there.

I have seen these listings in the past but checking right now to give you a price idea is difficult. Would need more time to check into today’s market to determine approximately how much you’d realistically get if sold on there. The current price of gold and the current price of RAM somewhat dictate the price, so keep that in mind.

It depends on where it comes from too because some countries have been letting people use theirs specifically because it makes sense given what the content is. I learned this for the .tv domain which is for the country Tuvalu but they’ve found it a nice way to make some extra money for television shows wanting a neat domain.
