I’m not criticising you. I cannot validity criticise you, even if I was so inclined (I’m not), because I cannot proficiently grasp the subject matter. I would like to understand, NOT criticise. You’ve written an engaging piece which is opaque to me; apparently a contradiction. Hopefully I’ve rephrased that enough times to get across that no criticism is intended. 😁

I don’t know the product names. I don’t tend to be focused on product names because they come and go. Your first message didn’t help me.

Your last precis is just what I needed. Ideal. Thank-you. I now know what you’re trying to achieve.

Wasn’t being critical at all. Not expecting you to write for anyone.

I wondered what this actually provides. If you were explaining to someone with a good knowledge of the world, not grandma!!

Thanks fella. What do they actually do? Elevator pitch stylie!

Excuse the ignorance, what am I actually reading about here?

I read the first few paragraphs and an out of my league.

What are ‘we’ trying to achieve?

UniFi seem to have dabbled with 2.5 GBE briefly and then jumped to 10. I’m guessing that 10 will be the way to go.

You’re looking at cat 6A patch leads rather than 7. 7 requires different but RJ45 compatible connectors, I believe. Yes, I’m still trying to understand what the difference is.

I have a 2.5G router, the CG Max. A 1 G switch (waiting for a reasonably priced 10 G) and a 10 G WAP. It’s a bit of a mess!

I don’t study Japanese. I suggested the most popular app.

Are you learning japanese? You might enjoy trying. Duolingo has a free tier which is annoying but the annual sub is reasonable (c. £60) if you look for offers.

Firefox will offer translations. On both sides.

Given the choice between not knowing an answer and having to translate it (using a built-in translator) I’d prefer the answer, but you could always use the translator for them even if the output is garbage-Japanese.

Taking offence is a choice.

Does one good to be challenged (at least) occasionally.

I learned something new.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the heads up… Really wasn’t expecting that.

Apologies to OP. I don’t know how to reference users: marauding_gibberish142@lemmybdzero

In terms of physical connections you’ve said that the card needs the x4. Not sure what there is to say further.

Can’t get a 30 cm ruler into a 15 cm pencil case.

Maybe I’ve totally misunderstood your post.

I don’t think you do.

A x1 will fit in a x4 but not the other way around.

An undervalued post.

Sometimes: a laughing hyena.

If you don’t have tested backups, you don’t have a backup.

If you haven’t tested your backups, you ain’t got a backup.

systemd seems to like mounting stuff on /media. However, I would consult the Linux filesystem hierarchy documents around (eg. Wikipedia and then follow the references) for the most compatible place.

/srv /mnt tend to suggest themselves. /home is for your personal stuff not shared user wide stuff.

Don’t put stuff in local directories, leave it in a NAS location and mount it where you need it using fstab or auto/mount units and the appropriate filesystem. Maybe I’ve misunderstood something you wrote to think of this last bit.

Thank-you.

I was hoping that the content would be id linked to a user id so that moving an account would remain linked to the content if moved between instances.

It’s not an inconceivable expectation for when instances close down or people find that the instance doesn’t suit them.

Is that the case?

If Facebook and Apple have eroded people’s brains to the point where such a simple question cannot be answered without freaking out, then we’re in trouble.

Yes. Thinking ability is gone. That’s of last century.

Maybe I’ve just written my/our answer. Fuck that’s depressing. Happily I’m old - I’ll be dead soon. This will be your problem.

You had me going there! I thought Tesseract was something to do with OCR.

Haven’t looked around for a while, but I’ve settled on Voyager.

Sadly, F-Droid tries to share the actual binary not a link to it via F-Droid (a la Google Play).

I have the reference application, Jeroba, installed but I don’t really like it and haven’t seen it updated for a while.
