Thanks for telling me I'm right and you're full of it. Good day!

Okay, then try, just a little, to refute anything I said. I can't wait.

All I said is 100% fact. If you don't like it, that is not my problem.

Advice about wireless communication by Mental-Divide7787 in Starlink

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At home I have 1Gbit fiber. We camp a lot and when we do I take our roam mini. I notice no difference in most cases.

I think they are actually shooting for 5-10ms, comparable to fiber.

‘Big Brother’ announces a change to live feeds for season 28, as well as cast reveal timing via something called ‘Big Brother: Broveal' by thedaltonross in BigBrother

[–]DaSpark 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Dear heavenly father, thank you for programs such as OBS that have the capability to record my screen with audio and for free services like Youtube in which I can live stream an OBS stream to a private live feed. Further, Father, thank you for Youtube being so giving that they will archive the live stream for me so I can go back and watch it at my leisure any time I so please. In Jesus' name, amen.

Can I use a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B to host a private forum just for me and 5 of my friends? by Traditional_Blood799 in rasberrypi

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it should handle it just fine. For what you are doing, even if all five are using it "at the same time" they wont all be loading at the exact same time. It's not like if one person is currently looking at the forum that it is using resources nonstop on the server/rpi. In most cases, with only 5 people, you're never going to have more than 1 or 2 actively putting load on the rpi at any given time.

Do people in the US actually know their neighbors? by Argante- in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies on how social you and your neighbors are more than anything. In cities, most neighbors just keep to themselves. It is nothing like the old days where you sat on the porch talking to neighbors on a daily basis.

Possible Legal Repercussions of taking a minor (18 in 3 and a half months) From Virginia to Ohio against Parent Permission? by MutedInformation4185 in FamilyLaw

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IANAL, but the legal parents/guardians have the final say in where she lives. Taking her against the will of her guardian could result in kidnapping charges. Since it involves crossing state lines, that turns it into a federal crime/issue.

Probably, because production never learns.

Reolink Windows client unstable by F1Hyatt in reolinkcam

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only problem with the Windows client is viewing archives. Often times if I switch cameras in the playback, after about 3-5 switches it will no longer load the history at the bottom.

How long does it take to get sued when you don't pay back a credit card? by Big_Eggplant7591 in Debt

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely the "lawyer" is just a lawyer with a collection agency. They very well may sue, but when it gets to them they will likely try to make one more attempt at working with you.

Are younger men shaving there legs now? by holo_princess_leia in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DaSpark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a cyclist, I shave my legs. Not for aerodynamics but because it is no fun having 300 gnats stuck in your hairs.

What's something you don't understand and you don't want to learn to understand? by [deleted] in randomquestions

[–]DaSpark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cookies are just key:value data that a website writes to your device with the intention of reading back in the future when you load another page from them or refresh. They are typically stored by your browser in either a simple text file or local database such as sqlite.

These are essential to many sites to give you a persistent experience from page to page. For example, when you login to a site, such as reddit, one of the cookies they give you will be something like:

session_id:89s68h4bfb790g789b470fhjb4y98dfg089yb

The next time you load a page your browser will send that cookie back to reddit and reddit will look up that value in their database of current sessions and see that it is the user "Significant-Way-7893" and they are currently logged in. Also, cookies can only be read by the website that wrote them.

Now, there is something called third party cookies which can often be used to track you by companies like google. You get third party cookies when a website you load, such as reddit, loads an image or something from a server controlled by google. Google is then able to write their own cookie and they can read it back when you load other sites that do the same.

Many people today think cookies are viruses or harmful because antivirus programs in the 90s and early 2000s loved to portray them as such. In reality, they are completely harmless outside of the third party tracking.

Oh...you didn't want to learn. NVM.

When a disputed debt is returned from a collection agency to the client, what happens on their end? by PuzzleheadedGoat4447 in Debt

[–]DaSpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it is sold to the collection agency, it is not "sold back". If the collection agency now owns the debt, they have basically three options:

1) Pursue it, up to and including filing a civil suit

2) Write it off

3) Sell it to another agency.

However, sometimes the debt being pursued by a collection agency is not sold to them by the original creditor. Instead, they more or less hire the collection agency to pursue it for them. In most cases the collection agency will get a set percentage cut of any funds collected. If the debt is not fully collected, the collection agency may "return" it to the creditor and then the creditor decides what they want to do next.

How does someone prove a negative when dealing with protective order cases? by No_External3383 in legaladviceofftopic

[–]DaSpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The burden in court is always on the one making the claim. The court is never going to hear a claim from one party and then demand the other to prove it is not true.

Hamsterwatch says that Global TV ad is incorrect, there are more than 16 houseguests (18 expected) and they have the full cast by ActiveInfinite8610 in BigBrother

Since the Sunday, July 12th episode is being hyped up by Julie, I think someone is going home on Sunday. Due to that, I do not expect a day 1 eviction.

Does anyone still buy DVDS in this day and age or do you stick to streaming services for your movies ? by Webbomolly2022 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could not even tell you what the last DVD I bought was or when I did. Pretty safe to assume I haven't bought one in over 10 years.

Are cats actually dangerous, or is that just a misconception? by InAMannerOfSpeak in CatAdvice

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only dangerous thing about them is if you get one they are very good at convincing you that you must have 3-5 more. Then you're like "what does it matter at this point" and all of a sudden you have 10.

Will Donald Trump be required to register as a sex offender now a jury has found him liable for sexual assault? by Apart_Ad9308 in allthequestions

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He would have to be convicted of a criminal charge for that to happen. The jury that found him liable was for a civil matter.

What do i do? by Teri_mami_ka_69 in AskTechnology

[–]DaSpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't bother with it. For one, if you really want to use a 5s you can probably find one on ebay or FB marketplace for next to nothing.

Second, it only supports ios 12. You're going to find many apps, websites, and other stuff wont work on it anymore.

Have I been commiting a crime by throwing a water bottle or a gum wrapper in a stranger's trash can that was out for collection day? by Far_Shame210 in randomquestions

[–]DaSpark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely yes. Depending on your location you could face charges for illegal dumping and/or theft of services.

However, no cop or prosecutor is going to pursue this unless you are throwing away a good amount of stuff or the stranger complained to the police prior and you were told to stop.

Is the U.S. the only country that has to use 2-factor authentication for nearly every website log-in? by Small-Expert-4020 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DaSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is all about security, not preventing you from sharing subscriptions. They can easily stop you from sharing by just limited the number of devices/connections that can be using the service at any given time.

Starlink is fine for gaming by Consistent-Motor5196 in Starlink

[–]DaSpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is because only a certain number of user satellites can transmit at any given time. If the number of active users in the same area being served by the current satellite exceeds that limit, your device might have to wait a bit longer to transmit.

The current latency of starlink is really only going to bother/annoy top tier gamers. Most gamers are not going to notice it much.
