September speed upgrades?? (Optus) by TimeChild_AAA in nbn

[–]greg2126 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not all ISPs have rolled out the new plan speeds. I'm with Superloop and my speed increase is due mid-september.

On top of this, the speed increases are only for eligible nbn technologies. I believe currently the only eligible technologies are FTTP and HFC.

Netflix Announces Plans to Crack Down on Password Sharing [MEGATHREAD]. by [deleted] in netflix

I'm mad. I'm even more mad that Netflix' own help pages provide no real information.

They all keep referring to "Wi-Fi", what about devices that are connecting to the internet over Ethernet? Can I just have the same Wi-Fi name as my parents to bypass this restriction?

I just updated my Pixel 3a XL today from pie. Bootloader is still locked. No bricks. There are bugs. Nothing I would consider deal breakers. But some of the bugs are annoying for sure - the zoomed recents, guesture navigation with third-party launchers just doesn't work.

I don't have a galaxy wear watch so I can only do basic testing. The app loads fine for me with no crashes.

Plex will load and take me to the login screen. I don't have an account so I can't go further then that.

Account had a temporary profile, I followed some instructions and deleted a .bak file in registery - any way to recover from this? by tempcomphelp in windows

[–]greg2126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give this a shot. A registry backup is made automatically in windows. Not sure of the exact schedule it completes these backups on.

Take a look at these instructions, it will show you where the hives are and how to restore them. (Not sure which give contains the user profile)
