This is pretty much true of any of the large pizza chains. Watch the specials, use coupons, take advantage of discounts for things like ordering through the app or texting (because reasons). It’s dumb, but you have to play their game to get a decent price.

That said, I can’t fault OP at all. Trying to grab a quick meal for a kid means you can’t spend the time to piss around and try to get a better deal.

It can be both at the same time which is why the problem is so exacerbated right now.

takes notes so I can bring a quart bag with 3.4 ounce bottles of acid onto a plane.

I had that happen for a while too, somehow it thought I was using it too much or something that wasn’t for personal use. You can request a whitelist if you are so inclined. The process was pretty simple: https://anydesk.com/en/whitelist-request

After I did that I haven’t seen that pop back up in over a year.

I feel like “eat all politicians, burn the system down, and start anew” is a valid position, lol.

You can tell shit is really getting crazy when the list of people CC’d grows with every single reply-all, lol.

Typically, very little. I have ~40 containers in my Docker stack and by in large it just works. I upgrade stuff here and there as needed. I am getting ready to do a hardware refresh but again with Docker that’s pretty painless.

Most of the time spent in my lab is trying out new things. I’ll find a new something that looks cool and go down the rabbit hole with it for a while. Then back to the status quo.

OMG I didn’t even see that until you pointed it out. That’s an amazing detail!

You know you can edit those entries and add an identifier, right?

This looks amazing! Going to play with it tonight. Thanks!!

I haven’t followed the whole thing as I didn’t have any desire to play the game, but assuming that’s true that’s a seriously shitty move and had to be intentional. Is there not some kind of bait and switch laws that would apply here?

I’ll have to assume you assessment is correct because I sure as shit am not about to click on a TikTok link…

So yeah, that sounds amazing!

It’s really hit and miss though, at least where I am. Amazon does it probably 75% of the time. UPS and FedEx are both maybe like 30% of the time. I don’t know if the shipper has to flag the package to have a picture taken or the drivers just don’t give a fuck most of the time.

Really glad I made the transition from ESXi to Docker containers about a year ago. Easier to manage too and lighter on resources. Plus upgrades are a breeze. Should have done that years ago…

lol I love it. You’d think by now people/companies would be aware of this…

I’m a current customer and still get shit like the frequently, usually they want me to add cable TV and/or phone to my internet-only package. It’s really obnoxious. You’d think after me ignoring it for 8 years they would give up but nope, still at least once a month one pops up in my mailbox.

Any guidance on this? I looked into Synthing at one time to backup Android phones and got overwhelmed very quickly. I’d love to use it in a similar fashion to NextCloud for syncing between various computers too.

You rock mate! I don’t need any games at the moment and if I do I can purchase for myself so I’ll leave for others. Cheers for doing this!!

No reason why not. May be a little power-hungry depending on the spec but if you already have it go for it. FreeNAS (now TrueNAS) is the usually suggested OS to run: https://www.truenas.com/freenas/

Since you have 4 HDD slots probably run 4 disks in a RAID 5 so think of how much space you need. RAID 5 is n-1 so if you have 4x 10TB drives you will be left with 30TB of space before formatting. You can calculate here: https://www.raid-calculator.com/

Then either mirror the SSDs for OS and caching or just use one. Depends on your budget really.

Correct, because they are incapable of actually thinking for themselves.
