How would you feel if your parents died protecting your life.
Depends. If I was about to die a painless death, quite disappointed as that’s basically the life goal.
Otherwise, I don’t know, my father often says he wants to die, so sounds like success.
Really, the situation would have to occur, there’s no other way to tell. I only know I’d be really sad if it happened to my dog.


I decided to delete most. I realized I usually ended up searching same things over again because there were just too many to scroll through.


I recently did a clean up on my phone, almost 1k deleted screenshots.
33.333…/33.333…/33.333… between actually not hearing it well, forgetting to pay attention or buying more time for the answer.
Of course. She was a single mother, kidnapping her would be dumb. When you kidnap the baby, you can get ransom from her.

Well, well, well.
If we go outside of dottted decimal notation of IPv4, we can have addresses starting with 624. They can also be in decimal, octal, and hexadecimal.
Oh, and IPv4 also supports shortening from middle right in dotted decimal. For example, 127.0.0.1 is too long, often you may be able to use 127.1.
Or you can go to Cloudflare’s https://1.1/


I am probably not the right person to answer, but to me it seems decent.
Hell, under current conditions, half the price is in that RAM.
Anyway, for the use case, definitely seems fine.
Now, for me the minimum requirements for such use case, if Windows isn’t required, are simply a 64 bit CPU, 4GB of RAM, and an SSD. SSD makes a really huge difference.
It’s now been maybe 2 years that it died, but I’ve been doing fine with a Core 2 Duo T7500, 4GB of RAM, Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT and random 128GB SSD powered laptop. It only struggled when I tried to use it for YouTube… and when I tried Gentoo on it. The compilation took 3 days just for me to realize I screwed up something in the config and had no network.
Stabbed in the heart.

Never realized that.


What about more extreme cases, say Castaway (movie) type situation. Stranded on an island in middle of nowhere.
But conveniently, one of the packages has a functional 2m battery powered radio and a Yagi too. There’s no one you can make contact with, except… the ISS.
What if the ISS was the only station you could contact?
“Hello International Space Station, I am stranded on an island after a plane crash. Can you help?”


Free Starlink during disasters for everyone, but for surveilence child protection and anti-terrorism you must accept X as a Certificate Authority.


I asked a lecturer some question, I think it was what happens when bit shifting signed integers.
He asked an LLM and read the answer.
Similarly he asked an LLM how to determine memory size allocated by malloc. It said that it was not possible, and that was the answer. But a 2009 answer from stack overflow begged to differ.
At least he actually tried it out when I told him.
But at this point I even had my father send me an LLM written slop that was clearly bullshit (made up information about non-existent internal system at our college), which he probably didn’t even read as he copied everything including “AI answers may be inaccurate.”


Here you go then:

For quick graphical management I use FX File Explorer because it keeps the timestamps when moving files.
For something more I use… Termux. I like to sort things based on timestamps as well, but often I like to set some custom modification time, or copy modification time of a file being replaced (e.g. replacing old 128kbps MP3 for FLAC), and I don’t know of any other way than touch.
Similarly I don’t know what else to use for syncing directories other than rsync.
Plus, I can run SSH in Termux, that means Rsync-ing between PC and my phone is pretty easy.
And it also means I can mount the phone over SSHFS (granted KDE Connect already takes care of this).
I can also use GPG for encryption and decryption of files.
And Vim works fine for me for text editing too.
And now since I already have that, say I want to access some files on any computer. It probably has a browser, and Termux has NGINX, coupled with FancyIndex it gets pretty nice for file access. I like the Material theme.
Now, a bit of a disclaimer: BE CAREFUL WHAT ADDRESSES THE PHONE IS LISTENING ON
I set them manually rather than the typical default of all interfaces. Unfortunately, Android seems to have no firewall. I can easily reach things on my phone connected to mobile data thanks to IPv6. This may or may not be desired. Oh, and NAT isn’t for security either, so don’t think you’re safe because you only use IPv4. Perhaps devices behind same NAT aren’t isolated.
Edit: Example of the WebUI with Material theme (sorted by date because I was able to set the file timestamps):



Found the raccoon.


I have similar issue with Google.
At some point I used to use Google Photos backups. I wanted to delete the backed up files, but there’s no way to do that. It would also delete them from the devices.
And I guess it checks them based on hash, because even in the main view it always figures out where the files are currently stored, if on device, even after I moved them elsewhere. Otherwise these other images only show up in their respective folders, not the main view.


Can’t even do that after 3 years back in middle school.
Yeah, profile updates take quite a while. I once got a reply from the dev on it, I think they said it’s updated every 24 hours or something like that. Just some unexpectedly long time.
