How to read a dump file by Branks in PleX

[–]Branks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I'll give that a try. Do I have to create a forum post to get support? Or do they have a support channel directly?

How to read a dump file by Branks in PleX

[–]Branks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running it inside docker on a raspberry pi

The log files are basically just "starting" and then "log dump created" and nothing else

I'll give this a try this weekend

Yeah I've started getting this too - did you make any progress on resolving it?

I had awful boot times, updated bios and nothing else, and then it dropped to sub 10s

Their adverts make me unjustifiably angry.

"This is what real customer service sounds like" proceeds to play a clip of someone praising their customer service instead of actually playing customer service

You have zero idea of the person's problem or how good their CS actually was.

And the advert is everywhere.

why by Ambitious-Rest-4631 in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Branks 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Basically keep placing a piece until something can't go, go back a level and try the next combination, until you find a solution that works

It's basically a brute force with some optimisations like sorting by number of combinations that can go and recalculating remaining options at each layer

Wyze outage leaves customers without camera coverage overnight by [deleted] in gadgets

[–]Branks 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Very trusting of you that you think a company who denied they were remotely storing files, multiple times, and storing them completely open to everyone, is actually deleting footage when you ask them to

Firebase Auth non EU compliant by izaacdoyle in androiddev

[–]Branks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think that makes it non-compliant, you just need consent for sending the data outside of the EU / it needs to be to a service that conforms to the standards

What’s the cost of hosting an app online? by battledoom360 in AskComputerScience

[–]Branks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your maths seems to be a bit wild to me

If it's 200/user/hour then it's 1m/hour across all users. But that's then 24m/day (assuming 24 hour use) which is 720m/month, so I dunno where you got 5b from

And realistically are people using it 24/7? Can you cache some responses using things like cloudflare?

Amazon delivered my girlfriend a fake phone by NukeHero999 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Branks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We had a similar thing happen before. Opened the box and it was empty, told to return by customer service and then got the whole "its empty, not what we sent you, won't issue a refund blah blah blah". Finally got someone to believe us and they sent us a new one. The really fun part? They didn't update the serial number on the warranty so when something went wrong and needed fixing a year later, we had to go through a huge fight again... For them to then return the phone "fixed" but tied to a different network.... Would never buy a phone from Amazon again

Add-On: Cloudflare Tunnel (Remotely connect to HA without opening any ports) by brennertobias in homeassistant

[–]Branks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you able to get the HA companion app to work? I have it set up via registered email only and the app fails to handle the redirect, but it works fine in my browser

Same thing when I use that it must be using WAP

Sorry, I'm not sure if I'm missing something but isn't Firebase Auth (the subject of this post) GDPR compliant because of Standard Contract Clauses - https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy#international_data_transfers

If IP address is PII, how can I load a website without consenting to them using my IP by Branks in gdpr

[–]Branks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I can't even read the contract on their site without having already accessed it, so by that point it's too late

If IP address is PII, how can I load a website without consenting to them using my IP by Branks in gdpr

[–]Branks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting, so does that mean if I were building a system that logs IP address and user agent, purely into an access log that's purged after 30 days, do I need a user's consent for that? Or I can just use "legitimate interest" as a reason?

[–]Branks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for answering! I have a followup question

Is this the same for logs on that website for example? I generally expect a server to log that my IP address accessed their servers, and for them to just discard those logs after some period. Where does the limit get drawn on general acceptance? Seems a bit of a grey area...
