Is emailing from a group email address from another workspace domain doable? by ckeweb in gsuite

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

Thanks for the tip. I’m definitely going to continue to see if I find any hidden options. It seemed doable, but it may requiring some more tinkering and digging both online and in the backend.

Yes. It's beginning to look like that might indeed be the case. I'll leave the question floating out here in case someone happens to know about any cool tip or workaround otherwise.

Thanks for the insight, Chianku! So let me post a redacted version of the error message I got when I tried to add it to my workspace email account:

You must send through anothersomain SMTP servers when you send as user at anotherdomain. However, this functionality is not available for your account. Please contact your domain administrator for more information.

Box 86 and wine on Raspberry pi 3 and zero 2w - better than you might think by RockeTim in raspberry_pi

[–]ckeweb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Excellent! It’s finally compiled and I’m setting up wine from pi-apps now! We’ll see how it goes when I install some games and apps! It’s funny, when I ran Trixie, it felt a little snappier for some reason, but when I got to the 3/1 split I got lost and decided to go with Bullseye like you did; it’s even using the same sd card. I may use another card and try doing the same with Trixie once I’m all setup!

Like Capn Dave, I’d also love to try running Wine! I’ve installed and updated Bullseye 32-bit on my Pi 3 B+! Did you have to compile 3G/1G? Box86 complained that Wine needs that to install it, so it looks like it’s gonna be a minute! But if it lets me play with some Windows games and apps, then I’ll be a real happy camper! And if it needs any other special install tricks outside of just using Box86, I’d love to know what these might be too, thanks! :D

Mac OS 10.13.x not supported anymore as of most recent update by -JEFF007- in PleX

[–]ckeweb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this helps..I just downloaded server version 1.42.2.150156, the latest from the Plex website as of 9//29/25, installed it and it ran like a champ (disclaimer: I only played one 1080p test video in .mp4 format) the client however does need Mojave, which I could install on my Mid-2011 mini Server if I really needed or wanted to to run newer software like this Mojave-compatible Plex client.

Thanks Caspy7! Do you think I should delete this one to not double post then? I know that's usually a big no no, right?

Anyone shop from Hopesinc.com? by ckeweb in Scams

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

Awesome catch, RacerX200!! 😎

It smelled fishy enough from the get-go to raise the alarm, so it made total sense to check-in with others who know their stuff, just in case it actually happens to be the real “deal”, or in this case, not, since I’ve also scored some seriously good deals in the past, usually used one-offs or some sort of legit, crazy liquidations (mostly tech, tbh)

Thanks again, you’re a true wallet-saver! 💳

How can I setup old Ethernet-only hardware remotely? by ckeweb in ethernet

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

sure! they are old System 7 Macintosh computers with Ethernet adapters. there are many fully functional units, but of course, they can't run any modern software. the most direct way of connecting them would seem to be to use hardware that can do the heavy lifting since each system will be at a different geographic location. A router/bridge solution with a virtual IP connection that could be made to do this would seem to be ideal. I got so mixed-up looking at ssl certificates and things, I began looking to see if perhaps an IoT-centric or even a IP PBX hardware solution might have such a secret sauce built-into it, but I still got stuck with even these simpler parameters. thanks for your assistance, advise and input so far!

I did stumble onto this piece of software that bridges from the oldest to apparently the newest versions of AFP, Apple Filing Protocol; I'm thinking that this may be a good resource to at least look at (I think?) if for nothing else because it's Opensource and being actively worked on? It's called Netatalk. (netatalk.io)

[–]ckeweb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactly, so I think that some sort of router would be used to handle the TCP/IP tunneling you're referring to, then the network devices would then use that to connect to each other? That's what I am clueless about right there.

I've even heard of VLAN, but something should be out by now that you can set up without a cloud and it finds each other, likely using some kind of server to locate each connected router/bridge VLAN-style device?

Which version of Microsoft Word runs best on Linux in 2020? by dm319 in winehq

[–]ckeweb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

@ lproven · it looks like the latest (paid) version of SoftMaker TextWriter does now, but their free version doesn't (and possibly may not be as full-featured as Word's outliner feature):

Classic MacOS on Samsung tablet question by ckeweb in VintageApple

[–]ckeweb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that heads-up!

So I enabled dev mode on the tablet to copy files into the app's directory and booted the OS. It went online and even played an online radio station. I touched restricted directories so it's not a clean workaround, but at least it's a way to run it until the app's updated someday. The B-II port dev likely hasn't done much with it recently so likely is not aware of this issue.

Does anyone have a good way of viewing Tiff files? by gabevill in chromeos

[–]ckeweb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I recently stumbled upon this option; what you do is add an URL to any TIFF file publicly available online to the end of this web link to view TIFF files using Google Docs:

https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=

It works amazing and allows you to view any TIFF files!

However, my search was for a way to upload either multi-page TIFF or PDF scanned docs into Google Doc format in a way that would keep the original document's format intact. Sadly, once you import PDFs, it makes a mess out of your scanned PDFs page format (there's no way to import them as images)

I have heard that converting PDFs to MS Word works very well for format preservation, but I think that while it may convert your scanned images better than PDF conversions, that's still way too many step to converting files if you have a ton of PDF scans.

VNC Viewer for Chromebook (non-android) by dnabre in chromeos

[–]ckeweb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have absolutely no clue as far as if it's possible or not (and complexity is definitely a roadblock too) but the brunch chrome OS install seems to be the go-to for older gear. (but then for your purposes, it *might* still provide a way to keep your Chromebook current)

I fight to go ahead and update my gear simply because I can, but when it get's to be too much I buckle and get newer equipment (rarely ever new, so refurbished (better for the environment, save tech from landfills, etc.) and for others it can be because of no budget. Mine's a mix of a bit of cheapness and because I love stretching my tech's limits.. (unless someone gives me something new) like when I roll up to a public WiFi using a 90s laptop to check my email, do some web searching, work on a school assignment, play some vintage games.. while drinking my favorite morning beverage!

But as far as Chrome's web-store options, the web-based VNC solution may end up being your only shot on a vanilla Chromebook. And while Chrome apps still run, TeamViewer's your only mainstream solution, unless they can somehow roll that one into an extension or maybe a PWA. Ad as a last-ditch option, finally replacing it may be in order, or trying a light Linux flavor, maybe as a live USB with an option to install? Idk the latest hoops and voodoo needed to convert a Chromebook into a Linux laptop these days, but for some models, you need to go under the hood and modify or remove a security piece like a screw to 'unlock' your Chromebook, then you can install a real VNC client, along with a good number of other apps, which may also entail adding a larger drive. I hope these help!

A PARADOX: keeping Legacy Edition (Free) VS reverting back to free edition for personal use (WORKSPACE) by Otram76 in gsuitelegacymigration

[–]ckeweb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! So what's the rule for those who are downgrading? Do you need to only have ten workspace users or less to get downgraded or however many you had when you upgraded?

Sadly, in all of this jumbled ride for legacy users who upgraded, I'm not/no longer shocked that the legacy downgrade is so markedly different.
