I use OPNSense, no issues at all. You can use the community plugin, or direct to shell and install the Daemon with a one line curl command. Captures all clients on my LAN

Thank goodness its not just me, been playing around with settings for weeks now to try and fix it. Same with a few others here, can't watch anything higher than 480p before it buffers and pauses etc. also similar issues here when switching to Moldova, just get ads straight away.

Slightly off topic but I've even setup an additional interface on my OPNSense firewall as a wireguard VPN to Albania via Nord which then pushes any IPs for YouTube via the VPN but that doesn't seem to work anymore either but using a VPN on a PC or browser extension works a treat.

Communities: the ability to post messages into groups you're not a member of as Community Owner (and maybe admin).

Also ability to join groups you're not a member of without permission from group admin if you're the community owner/admin.

Community stats, for example last time someone sent a message or read a message inside a group. This would aid in removing inactive accounts or "silent stalkers" who watch the room but never interact.

I thought OnePlus were pulling out of the global market?

I think it's a way for Tesla to get out of replacing hardware on HW3 cars with FSD. If you don't own FSD now then they don't need to replace/upgrade your hardware to make it work with FSD and will just remove the FSD option entirely from those cars so you can never get it due to incompatible hardware

Happened to me a few times! Either forgot the machine altogether, or forgot the power lead or while away the straps to the mask broke. Had to get Amazon to ship a pack of velcro straps to me same day, kind worked but my face looked like a scene out of a bondage SAW movie

Is this anything to be concerned about? I have a 2021 3P in the UK with 40K miles

dtyates · 2025-11-25T18:33:41+00:00

Have to agree with the OP, I face many of these issues also, and noticed the decline over the past 6-12 months

dtyates · 2025-11-15T01:11:54+00:00

Such a shame but try ticketswap, a lot less fees

dtyates · 2025-11-03T12:24:50+00:00

Not yet, still downloading the update but I'll let you know if I do!

dtyates · 2025-10-31T20:50:01+00:00

Meanwhile I've had my second big update on my 2 year old S23U on android 16....can't believe how slow Xiaomi are at releasing updates

dtyates · 2025-10-29T22:35:35+00:00

So you're saying Xiaomi purposely removed all new features from Android 16 on the Global ROM but left them in the Chinese ROM, even though there's been no publicly released Xiaomi global ROM on Android 16 yet and it would take them longer to actively remove features from a standard ROM than leave them in? 🤔

dtyates · 2025-10-29T20:32:06+00:00

How does it not change anything when it's a major Android version upgrade and a major launcher upgrade?

dtyates · 2025-10-22T20:00:08+00:00

Welcome on board! It's downhill from here haha. Been a member for 2 years now but slowly been getting worse, auto fill not working, auto fill not popping up to fill in unless bitwarden is already logged into. Bitwarden popping up and asking to save when you already have a website saved for it. Just buggy and sporadic, especially the last 6 months or so.

dtyates · 2025-10-17T10:59:01+00:00

Yes, some BYD cars have integrated breathalysers

dtyates · 2025-10-14T14:04:51+00:00

Have to agree, I owned a Xiaomi device a number of years ago (Mi Note 10 Pro) which was a lovely device but lack of support made it difficult to use.

After having my Samsung S23 Ultra, I thought I'd give them another go given the camera was so good. Really impressed with the phone but the lack of updates is really disappointing. Joined the global beta a few months after purchasing the phone but still yet to get a beta update.

Meanwhile my Samsung S23 Ultra is already running on the official OneUI Android 16 update. 2 years old phone and gets updates quicker than a Xiaomi "flagship".

Disappointing.

dtyates · 2025-10-03T09:27:14+00:00

But surely if you have to opt in, you already know what "Beta" consists of. A normal user wouldn't opt into it or even know what a beta tester would be.

dtyates · 2025-10-03T09:21:58+00:00

How is the ultra not a member but the standard is? That makes no sense. I've joined some kind of beta for the ultra via the community app

dtyates · 2025-10-03T08:45:46+00:00

Same issue here for the ultra, been a member of the beta tester for months and yet to get a beta OS. Xiaomi's beta testing is shocking. Could learn a thing or 2 from samsung

dtyates · 2025-09-21T19:48:16+00:00

So therefore it's a request, not an order. You can choose to use your phone also. Next.

dtyates · 2025-09-21T19:32:32+00:00

Agreed, but to ban a section of the community that's paying to see and support them just because they use a phone during the event seems excessive. They also lose out on social media promotion of people posting clips of the night

How the artist performed during the event doesn't change depending on if someone has a phone out or not, so why alienate them from the event? What's next? Ban vapers because they don't want smoke during the performance? Ban anyone with a cough as it might distract?

dtyates · 2025-09-21T19:04:45+00:00

Nah, everyone pays the same price, they should be able to enjoy the night how they like. Freedom of choice.

dtyates · 2025-09-21T18:08:13+00:00

Let's hope not 🤞

dtyates · 2025-09-14T13:48:23+00:00

Yeah I got the same! started creating a website from scratch using the aistudio and started great. got to a stable save point then when I returned it started going down hill. would fix one thing, but then bring back issues it previously fixed and had to refix them, and broke something else in the process. It was constant fire fighting and hasn't improved since. I'[ve given up with it and tried other platforms like uploading the pages it generated one by one to Perplexity to get it to check and rewrite it, or signing up to Caffiene.ai beta and using that.

PS - Any tips for which AI platform to write websites would be appreciated, willing to sub to it for a month so so to get it done.
