   I live in a small-ish market in the Northeast that has been under Time Warner's thumb (now Spectrum) for some time. Since moving here ~2012 there has been the promise of fiber to the home by a small local ISP. To everyone's surpri

   I've long had a desire to get "Prince With a Thousand Enemies" tattooed from elbow to elbow across upper back. Also have had various online handles based on that phrase over the last 20 years.

   Yes and no. I ran into an instance where certbot itself needed to be updated and the scheduled renewal didn't take place until I did so the next day. I also use Subsonic @home which requires generating a keystore as the app doesn'

   FWIW, haven't beta tested since iOS 7...Control Center swipe-up on lock screen or in-app is awfully inaccurate in general, coupled with being left-handed and equally non-dexterous on mobile with either hand as a touch screen isn't

    I've been running Fx sync ver 1.1 (EoL fall 2015) @home for almost 5 years now on a tiny vm but have not taken the time to move over to 1.5. This requires (since Fx version 32-ish maybe) to keep old installers (ver 28 is the furthest b

    I'm doing the same currently but like any subject I encourage questions about the how & why. If we have a discussion about content that is filtered that has more to do with technical aspects I will, right now, always allow access.

    As far as I know there aren't many K-3 students with cell phones. And cell signal in a lot of the schools I've been is less than desirable but I do see your point. Not all schools allow students to carry a cell phone either. There

    FWIW safe-guarding YouTube and Google searches can be quite a challenge. Using restricted mode and DNS config may not be an option if anyone in district uses Live Stream as any "streamed" content will be blocked by default as ther

    This is all great in theory but real-world application is so painful and does not scale if it is anything more than a literal set it and forget it deployment. I currently work in K12 and have looked into CloudReady for the last 3-4 months.

    I've used Subsonic for roughly 4 years now and have used both iSub for iOS and the official android app and find both to be quite similar. Only exception being on both my S3 and now S5 there being no playback options with screen locked

    You should be thankful for those patches as the version on the disc you bought is virtually unplayable. The goods didn't come until Spec II in my opinion, nearly 1 year after initial release.
