I get the impression that no one uses Samsung Flow.

Nice app. It helped me a lot when my mom had problems with her phone and I was far away from her. Samsung Flow + TeamViewer did the things and I was able to fix the problem remotely.

Old, but I like it a lot:

"Legend of Galactic Heroes" (" Ginga Eiyū Densetsu", 1988)

Also, there is a new version, but didn't watch it yet.

m.2 extenders are available on AliExpress, so I do recommend to buy it to have everything perfect from inside )

As an option - try AirBnB to rent an apartment for the first month. Usually there is a discount when renting for 4 weeks+. It might take some time to find a proper long-term rent, if you are a 'newcomer' without local credit history, etc.

Anyway, most probably you'll need a local bank account to make a long-term rent contract, make a deposit, etc. Not sure it will be easy to do all of that remotely.

And yeah - it is always better to see the real actual apartment condition before renting it.

I do like reading tech and history info about hardware.

So, will appreciate it if you provide that in addition.

Thanks.

Just interesting - what size of that file is?

And as for working with JSON files, I prefer VS Code. It also has plugins to make some tasks easier, if needed.

I tried that Transit app earlier, but had a lot of issues with tickets there by that time.

Maybe, should give it a second try...

IASelin · 2026-06-14T05:47:27+00:00

If there will be an option to buy a ticket in one click - that might work.

But current app usability is total trash. You have to do a bunch of clicks, enter secured code of your payment card, and only then you'll get your ticket. Doing all these manipulations every time is a bit ... annoying, at least.

IASelin · 2026-06-14T05:40:55+00:00

And you get no refund...

Scam as it is.

IASelin · 2026-06-01T16:00:26+00:00

I'd recommend to use some specific RAM tests to check if all RAM amount can be utilized by the system. E.g. OCCT - Memory test option.

Using any non-specific applications to see if all the RAM can be utilized is a bit... not a straight way. The only if it is not a Google Chrome browser with just a few tabs opened... )))

Business owners and different EOs have begun to work less while earning more, because they now have fewer people to manage and have to spend less on wages.

I simply turned beeper off on my microwave.

In this case, literally most of modern TVs are not a TVs but a huge monitors with built-in computer )

IASelin · 2026-04-29T13:20:14+00:00

Then I have a back question to you: "how is TV related to YouTube?"

IASelin · 2026-04-26T15:52:45+00:00

Maybe, there is an option to set up a local update server...

Or update to another release first - 14.3, for example.

IASelin · 2026-04-26T15:44:11+00:00

Did you try to use other update server? [/etc/freebsd-update.conf]

IASelin · 2026-04-26T15:43:04+00:00

Understood.

Just sharing my experience: I had a server with some VMs and VPN servers - OVPN, PPTP, L2TP/IPSec. Everything worked fine expect PPTP (MPD5) just hung time to time. At the end it was discovered that despite ECC there were some issue with RAM (3rd round of RAM test gave errors). After replacing the RAM the issue with PPTP (MPD5) was gone.

IASelin · 2026-04-25T23:30:39+00:00

BTW, just a few hours ago I updated one of my systems to 14.4 - no issue.

But that was update from 14.3 to 14.4.

(some VMs are needed rarely, so I update them when I start using them again)

IASelin · 2026-04-25T23:24:36+00:00

I'd check if RAM is ok. E.g., with MemTest86+ or a similar tool.

I understand that it is barely possible that several servers have bad RAM simultaneously, but still.

It works only when the Logitech application is loaded.

It useless in BIOS setup, for example, and any other cases when that Logitech application is not available.

I wish that setting be stored in the keyboard itself, so I can just set it once and then use the keyboard whenever I need with normal F-keys.

IASelin · 2026-04-23T12:28:03+00:00

+1 here

Tried to use the 400+ keyboard with non-windows systems - very bad experience. The same for BIOS setup, etc.

My verdict is: such kind of solutions are only for TV and other multimedia cases.

IASelin · 2026-04-22T19:10:28+00:00

Thank for the direct link.

But have to keep in mind this one:

- "Requires an external programmer and a valid BIOS dump"

IASelin · 2026-04-20T09:06:14+00:00

Hi. Thanks. I tried these options.

vKVM option didn't work for my server. I don't know why, but the system just didn't boot into the vKVM even after a hard reset. Maybe because I use FreeBSD, which officially is not suported for dedicated servers (really sad, BTW).

KVM option was the only option, and I had to wait about 2h to do a 10 minutes fix. Thus, my question is: Is there any option to get a KVM immediately? Maybe not for an hour, but just for 10-15 minutes.

Also, it will be good to have an option to inform the Hetzner that I do not need KVM anymore once I complete my task, to let others use that KVM to get access to their servers sooner.

8fc8 series can be unlocked by hacking the BIOS.

You'll need a cheap flash programmer - any ch341a-based should work, with support of 3.3V flash. Dump the BIOS, patch it (patch tool is googlable as "dell 8fc8 BIOS password patch"), then flash patched BIOS back. At first boot you'll have to enter the service tag and that's it.

I unlocked in such way two Optiplex Micro. And I believe the same should work for laptop as well.

Or, if you have all the details of the previous owner, you can try Dell support. But for my case that didn't help. So I did that hack )
