I have the unlocked version on AT&T. For the Nov update I used the global version. For the Dec update today, I used the US carrier version. Both worked great, so I'm not really sure what the difference is. The US version did include a radio flash, so I'd be inclined to use that.

I'm about a month in on my 6 pro, and it's definitely grown on me. I was originally planning on dumping it for the next thing to come along, but I think I'll keep it for the long haul now. The software integration and ease of rooting have won me over against the dullish screen and poor finger...

Pixel 6 is dud also. UI awesome. Screen horrible. How is it that phones have gotten worse in 5 years?

I'm a few days in on mine now, and I'm not really impressed. Keep in mind I'm switching from an LG v20 that's 5 years old, so I should not be hard to impress. The biggest gripe for me is that the screen is complete garbage. It just adds a dingy yellow haze on everything. If you tilt the phone...

Did you guys remember to add the free pixel headphones to your order?

I bought a few HD10s last Christmas for $80. There’s a free script you can run that blocks the Amazon ads and installs google play. I also installed a web adblocker. Works great.

https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/calendar I’ve never used the calendar myself, so not sure if it fits your needs. Nextcloud is pretty easy to set up though. Costs nothing if you self host.

Just picked up an 13 pro max yesterday and am finding it a little underwhelming. I’m coming from a 5 year old V20, so was expecting a drastic difference. Yeah the hardware is 100x better, but it just seems to be more difficult to do basic things with. I haven’t even bothered to swap my SIM card...

580s are relatively inexpensive but still slightly profitable. I considered paying scalper prices for new cards but, as mentioned above, when calculating the RIO, I subtracted out the immediate gain from just buying the crypto directly, paying off the card took quite a bit longer...

One and done. The license is a little odd in that it marries itself to a usb stick, which unraid boots from. Some don't like it because if your usb stick dies, you need to request a free replacement key, but unraid doesn't write to usb in use, so they should never really wear out. I actually...

If this is a true server, that you won't be using as a workstation on the side, then cough up the $60 for unraid. It gives you linux reliability without actually having to know linux. I switched from Windows Home Server and never looked back. You can install all the popular media server...

I was mostly just curious to see if it will even go through. If it burns, it burns.

Looks like the wallstreet stepped in and pretty much forced everyone to stop buying. It's plummeting now. $469 to $132 in a few hours.

I think the logic is that in order for nextcloud to work, I have to have a NAT rule to open the nextcloud machine to web traffic, that makes it more exploitable. Since it's hypothetically my weakest link, I was trying to move it off of my LAN. I'm not particularly attached to any feature set...

Did some more research. Apparently this is called a Fully Collapsed DMZ. Looks like it's an accepted standard setup , but doesn't seem to be very common for home use. Since this is a complicated solution to a problem I don't have, I might need to build up my courage a bit more before...
