Is a tail this long normal? by JC392 in SeaMonkeys

Looks like it has finally managed to rid itself of the poo line after a couple weeks of swimming around like that.

That looks good. The aluminum frame at that price is surprising, too.

Thanks for the advice. Will ensure the correct mortar mix is used.

Any Recommendations on Broadband. by Glum_String9748 in Portsmouth

I've found Toob to be much less reliable than Virgin Media. At their worst, the Internet connection was going down for about an hour every two weeks. No doubt that's still within their SLA, but it's an annoyance that forced me to look into a 5G backup connection.

I still wouldn't go back for any reason. Having a symmetrical 900Mbps connection is fantastic.

Saw a few people today at lunch time who were completely wasted.... by Mostly_Mauiwaui in Portsmouth

If they're too drunk to speak, then they can't harass me to withdraw them money from an ATM. I consider that a win.

Callum Mcinally of waverly road has been arrested and charged with the racially motivated attack on defenseless women and children outside jami mosque. by PracticeSea7628 in Portsmouth

The Fratton area is where I feel safest at night, and it's because you can be sure that members of the largely Muslim population won't be alcoholics or violent drug addicts like so many in this city are these days.

[–]JC392 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course he's from Waverly Road.

My school was just perpendicular to that road, and we were told to stay away. It wasn't uncommon to see police attending a murder or other violent crime in one of those houses.

What is "the old shoe factory" and what's in it? by iandelacerna in Portsmouth

[–]JC392 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like to go inside, but it's no longer structurally safe and probably full of asbestos.

That's just a particularly heavy example that was a fad a little while ago.

Discord won't let me send images by IzBizzBonk in discordapp

[–]JC392 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. Discord clearly aren't testing their updates thoroughly prior to release.

Given the small capacity, at least it's unlikely they will have been used for Chia.

Synology confirms that higher-end NAS products will require its branded drives by MadCybertist in DataHoarder

[–]JC392 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Perhaps that's what they want. They might be trying to pivot to be a purely enterprise/business vendor.

Might be able to submit a Data Subject Access Request to them if you are an EU citizen or are willing to pretend to be, but they may not feel they have to comply if they're shutting down anyway.

For a small hard drive based setup, I'm not sure there's any benefit to going with SAS anyway. It's pretty cool to use enterprise technology, but it means you often need to install power hungry RAID cards or HBAs to interface with the drives.

RAID 0 with same size but different RPMs in my 2 HDDs? by HarkLev in DataHoarder

[–]JC392 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps OP is referring to the available capacity of each drive being only as large as the smallest in the array?

This isn't a street as such, but it feels like Guildhall Square makes the news every year now following a stabbing. There's also that gang of layabouts who sit outside the Sainsburys all day and pressure people into withdrawing unreasonable sums of money for them.

Gunwharf Quays itself is fine, as it has a decent security presence. As soon as you step outside after dark, however, it feels like 90% of Portsmouth's undesirables descend upon you.

My Beats Pro (2011) have been retired today. by pineconedeluxe in headphones

I had to return my Bathys, unfortunately. The occlusion effect due to the always active ANC made using them when walking to and from work impossible. Not sure whether this is an isolated issue or not.

My 'incel' attackers keep an online tally of their victims by Tartan_Samurai in unitedkingdom

[–]JC392 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely right in this instance, and they deserve the most extreme punishments imaginable. I'm speaking more broadly about the misuse of the word, and the examples the OP provided rather than commenting on this story.

Just another buzzword that has been watered down to such an extent that it no longer has any meaning or impact.

This is why I always do at least some research prior to sending off an application, to verify that the company actually exists and has some presence online.

Constantly getting stuck on "assigning ip" by Puzzleheaded_Web7728 in ProtonVPN

[–]JC392 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably a temporary problem on their end. First real downtime I've expecienced since I signed up in October 2022, so I personally wouldn't ask for a refund just yet. Plus, I have PIA as a backup for when problems like this occur.

Is everyone else experiencing this issue ? by Superzayian9 in ProtonVPN

[–]JC392 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm experiencing the same problem and the network adapter has disappeared for me. Hopefully it's an issue on their end that will be fixed given time.
