I bought a Sub Mini just last week and it took me about 3.5 hours to get it working. First, I plugged it in via ethernet and my entire network went down. The second I unplugged it, it worked again. Unifi have a dedicated help link in their

Blazer is my favourite BI tool by a country mile. It does all I want with no fuss, is a breeze to set up and it's so much faster and more efficient than any of the other BI tools I've tried.

I agree with you. I've used GNOME for 20 years and exclusively since 2011 - it just keeps getting better and better. Every time there's a thread on here I point out that the detractors are a vocal minority and gather a load of dow

Oh so that's why I can't cast to my Sonos speakers? I thought they just couldn't work out how to make casting work, like how they still haven't figured out RSTP.

You answered it yourself. Parents don't know/care, their kids bare the brunt. Taxing isn't ideal and is a blunt instrument at best - but I'm not convinced there's a better (working) alternative.
