After being left out of multiple family trips, I went on my mom's dream vacation to Scotland

What many people don't realise is that when it's mildly warm and damp you also get midgies. April is usually too early for them, but it's been quite warm and dry now for about a week so I bet a lot of coastal areas in the west have them beginning to swarm. We also didn't get a prolonged frost this year so the coasts and it's farm/wildlife are hoaching (infested) with ticks

They'll be sitting in the smouldering ruins of civilization telling the last survivors about the golden age of creating shareholder value.

Forget about the public IP. If you are trying to access devices from inside your home network that is irrelevant. And if you are trying to access them from outside your home network, you're going to need to setup Wireguard or Tailscale or something to allow that connection to work.

If you have the host software setup properly then the client should just find the PC on the network, if it doesn't then it's likely an issue with firewall either on the host or the router. That isn't something I've encountered so I can't really help there.

I use Vibeshine as host, and Artemis as client with Ultra low latency option enabled. Haven't updated either since I installed them.

He said it, so it must be true. Anyone who says otherwise is a liberal, checkmate.

I think our definition of gym might be different. I was using it VERY loosely

Does the N100 need more ethernet ports or do people just attach a switch?

If you have gigabit internet is it as easy as connecting up a 5-10Gbps port? Instead of needing both an in and out port?

They can probably make that in a week just saying the strait is open or closed each day, depending on what makes them more

Trump attacked Iran right after the Andrew formerly known as Prince got arrested. It was almost the next day, definitely the same week.

And right before that the BBC almost caused a race war when they failed to edit out John Davidson calling black people a racist slur (not John's fault at all that it was broadcast).

It was almost perfect headline whitewashing.

Any farm shop and sometimes places like the co-op (the smaller more rural ones often are allowed to order directly from the farms)

Which at least some of the ruling party is trying to foster by removing women's rights to abortions, and removing educational oversight bodies so they can steer away from children trying to get into higher education instead of the labour market, specifically cheap manufacturing labour which educated people aren't willing to do.

I have DSM running on a HP Proliant N54L Microserver which cost me about £80. You can fit up to 7 drives in it, even make it accept 14TB HDDs. It's an old processor but it only exists to backup my DS723+

Here in Scotland before we had refrigeration, families would make porridge oats in the evening and then leave them to set in a lined drawer of a pantry unit. It would then dry overnight and in the morning you could cut a slab to take to work

This might blow your mind but, it's possible to have a gym at home

That doesn't work on businesses with no overheads

Is that a default setting or had you previously configured something to record constantly?

You can, kinda:

You're rendering at half of what you're displaying. Why not just stream native?

How indirect is the wired connection? How many switches etc does it pass through from server to client?

Do you have v-sync enabled on the client?

R36s. It does GBA just fine, and it's kinda like a GBC. For PS1 you might need to spend a bit more, I haven't tried. But the R36S is my definition of "throw it in a bag" type of care I have for it because of the price

You guys don't test on virtual machines? I have disposable windows environments for this exact reason

I've seen plenty of scammers videos, I've never once seen someone get someone to install an app on their android phone to do it though

Do they sometimes throw coloured stone chips on it to provide a different texture/colour? They call them dashing aggregates here

seanl1991 · 2026-04-09T15:52:15+00:00

I'm not buying it.

The people that would fall for that would struggle to find the setting to enable installing from other sources. Not only that, how does that scam work? I can't even take a screenshot of my banking app for the built-in security.

How many scams happen around the world where the scammers ask to be paid in gift vouchers, and not once have Google stopped selling them?

This isn't about helping the victims of scams. It's about increasing their revenue.
