Most of the last mile fiber network is passive (doesn’t require active electronics to pass the signal like DOCSIS/cable internet or ADSL).

Cable and DSL typically have the equivalent of UPSs in their neighborhood nodes, but they often go unmaintained.

By Grabthar’s Hammer, what a bargain.

I almost gave up on the dairy free cheese because Daiya was supposed to be the top-tier one. Tasted like vaguely cheese-flavored plastic strips, and I was not a fan. Also refused to melt until it was just below the temperature of the surface of the sun, and when it did, it was like a pile of glue.

On a whim, I bought the Kroger store brand (Simple Truth I think?) and it’s pretty damn good. Tastes like cheese, doesn’t feel like a mouth full of plastic, melts at a reasonable temperature, the whole works.

So it’s not just me. Okay. Of the group, I was the only one who experienced that.

I’ve only tried salvia twice, and it always made me feel like my body was being twisted clockwise. Not for me.

Ah, okay. Mine’s direct drive so probably doesn’t need that.

What does that actually do/address?

I’ve not had any issues without it on my E3v3

My saved items / wish list is full of stuff I want and could use. When I have some extra money, it’s difficult to choose one thing, and I get stuck in limbo. So given I could set limits and hit a button, I feel like it would help me.

• Does it have USB-C video out?
• Do you plan to run any custom ROMs / Can it run custom ROMs?

Yeah, for sure. I tend to use WebDAV with that to connect to my Nextcloud more than the actual Nextcloud app. Works great.

Assuming you mean SSH for file transfer? Material Files supports SFTP, and I use it to connect via SSH to my machines to transfer files.

Had to shrink the font a bit; looks better all on one line.

Is that good? I’m old and have no idea what that means.😆

Ooooh, I’m totally adding that to my email signature.

Aaaaaaand done.

I quit smoking over a decade ago, but if I had the opportunity to light a cigarette from the Olympic torch…I’d take it. Probably also use that cigarette to light the pilot lights on my water heater and then all my showers would be heated by the Olympic flame (technically speaking).

Life imitates art:

Is there a USB stick inside with a Debian ISO on it?

Can’t forget its pseudo-predecessor America’s Funniest Home Videos and all of the guys recording themselves getting kicked/hit in the groin to try to win $10,000.

Thanks. That’s already set to grayscale out of the box. I guess what confused me was that screenshots were in color (when I sent them to my PC to look at) but on my old Lineage 16/Android 9 device with “reading mode” enabled, the screenshots were in grayscale.

Apparently screenshots are no longer affected by those settings in later releases.
