| 20:42:35 | | Doranwen is having all kinds of "fun" trying to get one of her hard drives to copy to the new backup she got |
| 20:43:16 | <Doranwen> | I swap out my backups for the originals in my tower when the originals start dying, and then copy everything to the new backup drive - it's a simple system but it's worked for me |
| 20:44:43 | <Doranwen> | except this time attempting to label the backup drive as the name the original had just gave me bad magic number super-block errors, and it's freezing up caja when it tries to go into the folder that that backup drive had all the files in |
| 20:45:04 | <Doranwen> | the files still seem to be fine - fortunately - but I'm starting to wonder if *that* drive needs replacing too |
| 20:49:55 | <Doranwen> | hmm, apparently it does eventually resolve, it just takes five minutes to show me one folder |

| 23:27:42 | <systwi> | Maybe even an fsck, to play it safe. |
| 23:29:09 | <systwi> | ---- |
| 23:30:10 | <systwi> | So I had a laugh today. I originally had a NordVPN subscription years ago, and since their quality has been going downhill for the past year or so, I let it expire. |
| 23:30:18 | <systwi> | I went with Mullvad instead. |
| 23:30:42 | <systwi> | I was wondering why none of the Mullvad OpenVPN servers would connect on my system, for some reason. |
| 23:31:11 | <systwi> | I thought maybe OpenVPN was trying to contact their servers using the wrong NIC, but that wasn't it. |
| 23:31:42 | <systwi> | Poking around in my network settings I saw a strange IP in the DNS server fields. |
| 23:32:07 | <systwi> | I looked it up and completely forgot I had set those DNS server addresses to, get this, ones provided by NordVPN. |
| 23:32:31 | <systwi> | After removing them I was able to connect to Mullvad's servers just fine. |
| 23:33:28 | <systwi> | Just thought that was funny. Naturally, a company is going to block competing services' domains. :P |
| 23:35:42 | <TheTechRobo> | Reminds me of when my cousin told me he wanted a Pixel because they're one of the only companies where you can unlock the bootloader within warranty. |
| 23:35:53 | <TheTechRobo> | I said, "you know it's bad when GOOGLE is the least monopolising company" |
| 23:36:07 | <@JAA> | *cough* Fairphone :-) |
| 23:36:17 | <TheTechRobo> | *cough* not sold outside Europe :/ |
| 23:36:45 | <@JAA> | Yeah |
| 23:37:47 | <systwi> | Aww, Fairphone isn't? I never looked that far into it but I had seen a review on it and thought one would be nice. |
| 23:38:16 | | michaelblob quits [Read error: Connection reset by peer] |
| 23:38:28 | <Doranwen> | systwi: it's on my list as soon as I've got the files copied off - so far they're copying fine, once I restarted the computer (my issues with caja might've been caused by something I did before) |
| 23:39:04 | <@JAA> | Sadly, they removed the headphone connector on the latest one. :-( |
| 23:39:09 | <@JAA> | But otherwise, yeah, is nice. |
| 23:39:43 | <TheTechRobo> | Every damn company. Are my 3.5mm headphones just worthless now? |
| 23:39:48 | | michaelblob (michaelblob) joins |
| 23:40:23 | <thuban> | TheTechRobo: f(x)tec phones come with unlocked bootloaders! you can even order with ubuntu touch or lineageos instead of android. |
| 23:40:26 | <systwi> | Bluetooth is insecure and lame. What is so wrong with a 3.5mm headphone jack!? |
| 23:40:43 | <thuban> | of course, i've been waiting literal years for mine, so... |
| 23:41:02 | <systwi> | If I hook and yank my earbuds out of my ears, that's my own fault! |
| 23:41:33 | <thuban> | (i find this forgivable given the circumstances, but still.) |
| 23:41:54 | <@JAA> | Yes, but think of the poor corporations. They need you to use wireless little buds so you lose them or their batteries die and you buy new ones! |
| 23:42:14 | <TheTechRobo> | thuban: Ok, that looks like a cool phone. |
| 23:42:46 | <@JAA> | A physical keyboard, now that's something I haven't seen on a phone in a while. :-) |
| 23:42:56 | <@JAA> | (I'm sure they exist, but yeah...) |
| 23:43:51 | <TheTechRobo> | I'd probably get that phone (assuming it's available in Canada) if I hadn't already bought a bunch of stuff to make my own. I feel like it'll be helpful for learning (and it'd make me feel really cool :P) |
| 23:44:53 | <thuban> | i _seriously considered that_. but in the end i felt miniaturization was too important... |
| 23:44:58 | <TheTechRobo> | Pro1X has 6/8GB of RAM. On a _phone_. Why? |
| 23:45:13 | <TheTechRobo> | Quite sad that we need that kind of RAM on a PHONE. |
| 23:45:59 | <TheTechRobo> | thuban: Yeah, my phone's going to be a thicc boi. 7" touchscreen, I'm worse than Apple :P |
| 23:46:19 | <TheTechRobo> | Also the Raspberry Pi jutting out the back. |
| 23:46:25 | <TheTechRobo> | Definitely not water-resistent. |
| 23:52:25 | <thuban> | JAA: it's basically f(x)tec, planet computers, and a bunch of variously-vaporware community projects (the most nearly successful of which is the dragonbox pyra). |
| 23:54:20 | <Jake> | The DevTerm is something I've wanted to buy for a bit, but haven't really found a great reason to. https://www.clockworkpi.com/ |
| 23:54:53 | <thuban> | oh, and unihertz, which does a blackberry-style one. |
| 23:57:18 | <thuban> | seems like the key to success is hiring people who worked on mobile keyboards back when mobile keyboards were a big deal--the pro1 slide-out mechanism was designed by the guy who did them for nokia, and planet has a bunch of ex-psion(!) people |
