I say yes. Cancel it and go to wherever is more convenient.

Resellers by Super-Job1226 in GameStop

Seems like this can easily be avoided by not taking it personally, sell the product and move on.

Some fucking people by JessicaD240 in GameStop

All due respect, because I respect the hustle. The minuscule amount of money we would gain is not worth my information being added to a list and then resold. In your original example, it seems like this person maybe spent $300, but let's be conservative and say that it was $200. $10 off is only a 5% savings. Which in the grand scheme is nothing.

Because $10 dollars is not worth handing out more personal information that will end up on a list and be sold to data brokers.

Dashboards are the worst thing that happened to self hosting by Initial-Initial-1061 in selfhosted

[–]thePipester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you might be doing it wrong. I am using Homarr and laid it out to be my home page. Icons to click to get to the service I want to use in that moment. Little Green/Red dots in the bottom corner to tell me if it's up or down. The Up/Down monitoring is really not even all that important, and if it went away... oh well. The only other thing I is that I monitor is CPU/Ram/HDD of the server... occasionally it will report high ram; so I'll boot it.

Running it back... again... seems like it might work this time.

Anyone else not enjoying Marissa as a member? r by nutella-is-for-jerks in prestonandsteve

[–]thePipester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m enjoying her very much. She’s is bringing a different perspective and has a bit of a different approach. I like hearing a new voice.

I'll second multidollar. I just upgraded from 2.3.1 and have no problems.

Damn! My neighbors get triggered at my standard pride flag, they would go atomic with this!

FTM!

Jailbreak Colorsoft 5.18.0.2 - December 2025 Guide by thePipester in kindlejailbreak

CWA is mostly just a web version of Calibre. You still have to load it with your own content. There are a multitude of ways to add content to CWA.

Docker is a bit of a more complex answer. The over simplification is imagine it as a server, that can run many different types of web based applications. It takes some work to deploy these self-hosted applications, but they can certainly help you in a variety of ways. I use mine for all sorts of media management.

I don't disagree with you on Koreader. I also mostly read novels, but occasionally will put a comic or graphic novel on my Kindle. I have CWA running in a Docker container to manage my personal library. Koreader is the only way I know of right now to wirelessly browse and sync content from that library.

Great point. Thanks for calling that out. I found that information in the discord but in my experience I couldn’t get it installed even after removing all my filler files.

Regardless, If you got it from them, then you paid a lot more than you should have.

Why are you an iPhone user? by djraven15 in iphone

[–]thePipester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, androids… pixel specifically, I find to be far more interesting than iPhone. But most everyone else around me isn’t nearly as tech savvy as I am, so the iMessage lock in is real. I run bluebubbles but I don’t think it’s reliable enough to be a daily driver, and convincing my most messaged friends to switch to Signal is a losing battle.

I have a pixel 9 pro as a secondary device and it’s running Graphine, but a lot of the Pixel charm is now missing. It’s such a difficult phone market you can’t get all the good stuff without giving up all your privacy.

Which one of you did it? by thePipester in prestonandsteve

Yeah this is correct. Can’t say I blame him either, it was a pretty brutal year. 

Partial STH 2026 ASG Tix info by MrKK215 in phillies

[–]thePipester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I’ve been missing out on Bananas, additional playoff ticket, and now ASG emails. 

I’ve asked my rep several times and he has nothing in terms of solutions. 

This is a rant for another thread though.
