UCMJ says otherwise. But in practice, I can tell you from experience that the consequences for any kind of refusal will be treated as mutiny and could cost you the rest of your professional life

Every bit helps

As someone that struggles with networking, I’d love to hear what you’ve found and how

Just turned a Win10 machine into Ubuntu not too long ago. It took all day, broke several times, and still has issues booting remotely. It is getting easier, but a 30 minute Windows install with a few button presses is still easier, unfortunately

Fair enough

This is the first I’ve heard of Tailscale=/=infallible. As a long-time user, should I switch to a different setup?

I saved the post because I’ve always been interested in aggregating a RSS feed, but I need ideas for what to subscribe to. Thanks for making the post

I was just looking into this yesterday. I’d love to hear if it’s worth the hassle. People seem to be 50/50 on its long-term usefulness, “just use _____!”

YSK I’m profiteering off of the masses thinking like this by not moving my money. It’s worked for me every time someone told me “you should reinvest”

After making the jump, you’re totally right

Ideally you have backups of backups, right? Like putting an SD card in your phone, or a second HDD in your computer. Then the “cloud” part…my recommendation, considering you asked for simplest, is a NAS. Get a user-friendly one with built in apps that can do what you’re asking, and you shouldn’t have issues

Then I get a “SocketTimeoutError”

I’m sorry in advance, but I don’t know how to answer the first two questions…I’m using whichever protocol is default for Win11 (SMB2, I think). I’ve been trying to find the folder through an automated scan, then plugging the hostname and address in myself when nothing comes up

So I have all of the devices connected through TailScale (for remote media server access) with a Pihole DNS. All of that works as intended, and my computers can share files between each other, but folders shared across my network aren’t visible on my phone for some reason. The file manager that was recommended to me most recently was Material Files, but it isn’t detecting my shared folders and plugging in the SMB info myself leads to a vague error.

I’ll try CX and report back

“Could not log in to xxx.xxx.x.xxx with user xxxx” but my info is correct, copied and pasted to be sure

As in, which file managers have I tried?

Really? I bought a Death Adder back in…2011? Or '12, maybe. And it JUST started to fail me, still works, but sometimes double-clicks for no reason. I was actually gonna get another one too

Weird, I’m telling ya I’ve had MANY comments disappear

I’ve had many comments (and I know a few others have too) quietly deleted for talking about the downsides of Linux, so mild censorship is definitely a thing depending on where you visit. But “shadow banning”, if I’m not mistaken, is kinda nonexistent on a platform like this

What generalization? You mean the widely accepted pain that comes from it?

I respect your opinion, but I’ll pass
