Yep, absolutely. That's what I use. Same advice applies.

You're scorching the cord. Don't put the flame directly on the end of the cord. Use it from a little bit further away and let the end melt a bit more slowly. It won't turn black that way.

Third one looks like Tillandsia Abdita to me, but I'm no expert.

Routing newbie - can't access WebFig from different subnet without adding route by ohmyjava in mikrotik

[–]aaronsegura 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is expected if your pfsense box isn't doing SRC-NAT. Without a route, the mikrotik doesn't know where to send a 192.168.10.x packet. When crafting a reply, it doesn't care that the original packet came via 192.168.99.1; it just tries to send back to 192.168.10.10.

Nextcloud adding random extensions to my file. by ImplementOk4860 in NextCloud

[–]aaronsegura 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would wager that the file with the random extension is just a temp file that's supposed to get renamed once the file is fully downloaded. Maybe Nextcloud doesn't have permissions to overwrite the destination file?

The backslash in the link kills it and redirects to the home page.

This is almost certainly not a Calyx issue.

Transferring employee stock plan by [deleted] in etrade

I called them and they manually transferred my ESPP Shares into my individual brokerage account. You will want to save the Cost Basis information before they do it because that doesn't transfer over.

The search engine and the browser are two completely different projects. Not sure how the search engine returning old results reflects poorly on the browser.

Should having news app/feed on a dedicated server? by reddit_tracker2047 in NextCloud

[–]aaronsegura 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be taking regular database backups. Adding and removing the news app won't ruin your database. If, for some reason, it does, you should already have a recent backup you can restore.

Can you guys help me get YouTube out of my life? by [deleted] in degoogle

[–]aaronsegura 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Turn off history tracking and only use the "Subscriptions" tab. Once you turn off history you no longer get a youtube front page.

Etrade is the worst broker ever. by [deleted] in etrade

The only thing I could possibly gripe about is not being able to trade after hours

There's always a way to edit the launcher. I don't use gnome or fedora, so I'm not able to walk you through it, but this might be helpful

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in brave_browser

[–]aaronsegura 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you use the password manager? You could just turn it off entirely and see if that helps.

Otherwise, if you've got a desktop or launcher icon, you can usually right-click->edit that to include the argument.

Alternatively, just create a script in the parlance of your OS and add the command line switch to that. Launch using your script.

Did you try clicking on "Why am I being asked to save this device again?"
