  • Same here. Sansa in the drawer, only brought it as used to be able to hack a ps3 with it before full custom firmware was a thing.

    Zune still works but no windows 10 drivers so stuck with old music 😕

  • good alternatives to raspberry pi which are cheap and efficient?
  • I'm a big fan of dell wyse machines. Loads on ebay, ex business machines. X86 so decent support, decent dell power supply, on / off button / in cases and low power.

    I have wyse 3040 for pihole cost 39.99

    I have wyse 5070 with windows 10 for plex and running a Ubuntu 22 server in virtual box, cost 59.99

  • Tips Needed: How do I cut down on my grocery bill?
  • Lucky I guess but noticed when I leave work at 4.30pm, I can get to the local sainsburys in 5 minutes and the amount of discounted food is crazy. I buy gbp 4.00 meals all the time for 99p then just freeze and eat for the next few weeks.

    Good as long as you aren't picky and will eat anything.

    Freezer currently full of meat and ready made meals.

  • How do you organize your DHCP clients?
  • I put them into groups, servers, consoles, computers, phones, smart devices, media. Between 10 to 20 per range.

    Everything else the dhcp server gives out ip over x.x.x.150 so easy to see new stuff.

  • The people have spoken, and they want to speak to real live humans, not a rail ticket self-service app | Gaby Hinsliff
  • I use trains on a regular basis but can't remember the last time I saw any staff in the station.

    I now just use the train app on my phone. from, to, time, press pay and use the finger print scanner to pay.

    Buying a ticket should be simple.

    Even the buses here I just tap my phone against I reader and sit down.

  • Global Smartphone Market Declines for Eighth Straight Quarter; Premium Segment Growth a Silver Lining
  • I thought the same till I actually brought myself a decent pair of Bluetooth headphones with a chargable case. Never had a problem with battery life and much easier with no wires.

    I did get a cheap gbp 2.00, usb-c to 3.5mm audio adaptor just in case but never used it yet.

  • Network speed

    Hi, just wondering if someone has any thoughts why transfers over my home network are on the slow side.

    I originally thought the network was slow as had a raspberry pi acting as a network share for a while. It's now been removed and writing / switch replaced but b it's not really improved the speed.

    I've got 1gb Ports and cableing on my router and switch, 1 x mycloud 5tb, and dell wyse 5070 windows 10 system with a 256gb m2 drive running 24/7.

    When using my laptop via wifi to move a files from wyse to mycloud it's about 28meg / samba share.

    Yet when I moving find via my mobile using a samba client and again move from wyse to mycloud it's always around 8meg.

    It almost seems the file gets transferred by samba to the phone / laptop first then sent to mycloud. Surely samba would get wyse and mycloud taking and transfer direct to each other?

    Thanks
