You buy as much space as you’ll need in the next few years and make a plan for proper duplication/backup, such as 3-2-1 Backups.

Right? It’s a frigging battery.
Surely we can get a group of battery techs and mechanical engineers together to come up with a solution.
Hell, I’ve been bastardizing the “wrong” batteries into devices since the mid-70’s, while today I’m usually replacing crappy built-in batteries with 18650’s. And I’m no EE, just have a little skill and vision.
Surely the battery spec on this is pretty clear, and it’s an off-the-shelf tech (not some odd chemistry devised by the company). Not that it really matters - a replacement merely needs to fit in the space, and match voltage and current requirements.
Your family isn’t dumber than average.
Uu tech folks tend to forget/overlook that most people are clueless as to how mobile devices work. I have IT friends who know practically nothing about the Android file system, or how apps store (but don’t sync) data, for example. And these are people designing/implementing/supporting complex systems.
Most people can’t be bothered if there’s more than one or two steps. I can’t walk my “70 year old uncle” through configuring an app on his phone, over the phone. The stuff he says he sees make no sense at all. I’m like “no, that’s not what you should see, what did you click on”?.
Oh, access to everything will happen.
The owners will just charge us for every viewing of every episode.
Yep.
I rip them, then store the discs in a cool, dark, dry place.
Everything I rip is backed up. It’s pretty clear what’s happening.
And in 20 years they’ll start “selling” everything by the episode online.
Laser is your long term answer. Brother seems to be the brand today.
Lol, so true!
Also, don’t buy inkjet.
My first inkjet was an HP bubblejet, about 1994. My last was some garbage about 2000. Since then I’ve refused to own one.
My 1997 laserjet (that I bought used in 2008) just died. I bougt a color laser on Craigslist for $50. And my current BW laser is a 2014 HP, that just got it’s second cartridge.
You can’t give me an inkjet.

I would never allow non-corp equipment to connect to our network.
That’s the key.
That said, I’ve always bought ~2 year old phones. They usually have batteries at 85% life (or more).
I haven’t had fast charging hurt one significantly yet, and I’ve used it a lot on some phones.
Of course, I avoid using it as much as possible. I use a slow charger (1A,max) overnight and it’s on a timer. On rooted phones I use a charge limiting app.
The difference is even this pittance of a fine wouldn’t happen in a planned economy - it would be like the planners fining themselves.
What we’re seeing here is a result of the amoral “beastly” types concentrating power. What you’re suggesting is to intentionally concentrate that power from the start.
Facebook is a great example of democracy - the billions of people using it have effectively (in their voluntary ignorance) voted for it to be like this. These are the same people who would vote for policies in a pure democracy.
And you’re ignoring what happens in the SMB space, where people aren’t part of the corrupt circle.
You’re welcome to start a small community anywhere in the US with a planned economy, as proof of concept.
You could call it… A commune, to indicate its goals.
I’d not heard of OST, so just read an article summary and realized I’d discovered I needed a “distractor” to get school work done when I was about 10 years old. I had no idea it was understood since the 50’s at least.
Wow.
I wonder if maybe some kind of notification system for her, and you, would be useful (in addition to blocking).
Then maybe you can interrupt her, perhaps talk about it, or setup some tools for her to use to help manage stuff and learn along the way.
Guess what I’m going for is the learning/growth angle, rather than just automatic constraints (which hy themselves don’t teach or help us learn to manage this stuff ourselves).
Seems like there’s a need for all this for all kids, not just neuro-atypical.
Ah, OK.
Yea, not sure if these units can yet support expansion of a data set.
BTRFS and ZFS technically have the capability (from what I recall) in the latest versions, the question is does the device you’re looking at support the capability? I haven’t looked into enough of them to know for sure.
That said, my ancient Drobo can do this, but… It will only see the new size once you upgrade all the drives. It will resilver with a new larger drive but until all drives are upgraded it won’t use the extra drive space of an added larger drive.
(And yes, Drobo is garbage, this one was free, I had some spare drives and I use it as a third local storage device, kind of a spare I don’t really trust).
Oh, cool, that’s slick. I didn’t know this existed!
Your “job” isn’t to “change” anyone’s view - and a real pastor would know this.
Change is an individual thing, and a “real” pastor would be appalled at your idea of the implication of denying individuality by thinking you can make another person change.
Your job is to help people examine the world, examine themselves, and gain understanding, so they can determine for themselves what change needs to take place.
Thinking you can make others change (and thinking that the change you choose is the “correct” one) is the height of hubris, and offensive to the very concept of personhood.
Pastor my ass. Nothing more than a sophist.
By supporting networking (and also using a mesh to increase range).
As I understand “walkie talkie” radios, the spectrum they use (GMRS/FRS/CB/MURS, etc) isn’t permitted to transmit data in a way that’s useful for proper data networking (there’s some allowance for data but not really anything like what most people think of as networking, and encryption is right out of the question).
For the most part, these radio specs can only increase range by use of repeaters. IIRC meshtastic takes a mesh approach to increasing range and reliability.
Yep, an OS would need to be monolithic for a given device.
Something the computer world decided was a Bad Thing in about 1978.
To get your…battery replaced, and they want to charge you for a new engine.
