I just looked at the current offerings from Newsdemon and the deals are not nearly as sweet as the plan I’m on. I suspect that your best bet for a long-term subscription would be to wait until Black Friday, but there are plenty of providers with cheap blocks or monthly plans to play around with.
It’s been a couple years since I set it up so I couldn’t tell you what’s the best deal these days.
I use Newsdemon’s 2tb/mo plan (Black Friday deal, it’s almost free it was so cheap) and a Blocknews block for completion. I don’t have any issues with downloads being incomplete but YMMV.
Nzbgeek indexer (lifetime sub), Sabnzbd downloader, and the full *arr suite for automation, and an Emby server running on my NAS.
I’d rather pay for a decent Usenet backbone and use exclusively SSL downloads than rely on a VPN with torrents.
You don’t want a free VPN. I’d cough up for Mullvad if I was going that route.
Check out Syncthing. It works pretty painlessly.
The Youths™ prefer short attention span, rapid gratification things like TikTok/Snapchat/Instagram/Facebook video reels… generally.
Cursive with the oddball printing letter thrown in will always be my preference. It’s just plain faster than printing.
Gaming works surprisingly well. The last few years have made it a one-click affair for thousands of games with the efforts of the Proton team.
The titanium kit only took about ten minutes to install. Everything screwed together for the bezel and the bracelet has spring pin links.
The crystal replacement is a little more involved but still largely consists of removing the screen module and then pressing the crystal out and gluing the new one back in. It’s not very difficult, especially compared to servicing a mechanical watch.
It was! A sapphire crystal replacement is the last (or next, anyway) thing to do. The mineral glass has a lot of scratches and chunks out of it even though they don’t really show in the picture. This is the watch I wear when I can’t bring myself to beat up one of my autos.
The only reason I haven’t is the Pixel OS specific feature set like being able to use text selection/OCR from the task switcher.
Pixel 7. I bought it with the intention of flashing it with Graphene OS or something along those lines but I enjoy the Pixel features so much that I’ve left it stock.
As long as you don’t live in Flint, USA water is generally safe to drink from the tap.
Installing the front cover looks like an absolute bear of a job. I’m very much a tinkering type of guy, but any time I see glued screens I get nervous.
This is a shame, because I’d adore the transparent purple case.
Mostly play indie top-down retro stuff like Core Keeper, but the occasional bout of Halo MCC/Infinite, RDR2, Wasteland 3, and a few others.
If the new Battlebit release anti-cheat functions properly under Proton then I’ll be picking that up.
Could have sworn I read that only one mod wanted to go dark, and that particular mod was inactive for over a year. The other moderators did not want to participate in the blackout. Not really a cut and dry situation in this context.
I’m glad you posted this. I’m using Syncthing, a home NAS, and offsite VPS to run my own automatic photo backup system in the vein of Google Photos but I very much miss the auto tagging features. Gonna have to check this out!
In the middle of my backswing, General?!
