Unter den Umständen würde ich tatsächlich irgendwie versuchen ein LAN Kabel ins Zimmer zu bekommen und dann zumindest ein echtes extra Netzwerk machen. Fritzbox auf Kleinanzeigen oder sonst wo günstig besorgen und im Router Modus hinter der Vodafone Box betreiben…

Oder du besorgst dir einen Gigacube 5G.

Weil zum einen WLAN Adapter für ein Synology teuer sind, dazu noch eben ein ordentlicher Adapter noch teurer. Du hast beim WLAN sehr viele Punkte, die Fehler verursachen können - und zwar auch solche, wo du dann auf dem Trockenen sitzt, im Sinne davon, dass du nicht mehr ans NAS kommst. Weiterhin hast du bei einer direkten LAN Verbindung mit dem PC dann noch andere Probleme.

Wenn du dir einen Gigacube 5G besorgst und den bei dir im Zimmer platzierst, kannst du alle möglichen Probleme umgehen und hast dein “eigenes” Netzwerk. Damit musst du dann nich so sehr drauf achten, alles zu vor deinen Mitbewohnern zu Schützen, standardmäßig “schreit” so ein Synology durch das Netzwerk, dass es da ist. Dazu kannst du, wenn du eben von außen Backups machen möchtest, einfach entsprechende Ports die nötig sind freigeben.

Geht auch nich um den Dude selber, sondern um etwaige Gäste und anderes. Aber das ist am Ende pP (persönliche Präferenz).

Die Vodafone Station taugt nich viel…aber sie sollte ausreichen, wenn ein Kabel dran ist.

Freedom of press is a very long process, as it’s directly tied to all the people, actor, influencers and involved parties in that given country.

But this kind of shit has been happening for quite some time. Spain, Italy, UK…either Russians against the war or Ukrainian people…

Yes, I did. But I couldn’t get my Homeassistant to work routing through it, so I switched back to Proxy Manager…

Basically, China pumps incredible amounts of money in to companies, so they can undercut prices from EU companies crazy - forcing the EU companies to give up. EU wants to level the playing field.

Edit: With taxes for Chinese companies that want to sell something in the EU, like China already does as well on the Chinese market.

There also another thing at play here: China has laws, so that foreign companies need at least 50% Chinese “shares” (it’s not just shares), basically neutering these companies and also giving away the technology to Chinese third parties. Wich further erodes the playing field, because now Chinese companies not only can produce stuff dirt cheap, they can also do it with “high-tech” stuff, without having to pay and/or do the development.

There’s still a huge difference, because most of the subsidies in “western” countries are Tax Subsidies (there are exceptions). Chinese companies get direct money. There’s also the fact, that management is often in the CCP, sometimes even directly involved in the law making and various other things. Almost all subsidies are also in government loans, meaning they have to be payed back - the difference to bank loans though is that the government loans do not have interest. Again something that isn’t happening in China…as the CCP mostly owns those companies as well, they do not have to pay back the money.

I’m not entirely sure what you are talking about, but most backup systems are Plane based.

GPS is mostly used for something called RNAV, however, RNAV can work without GPS. RNP approaches need GPS, but all airports (regardless how small, because without it would only be an airfield) have different approaches for both pilots and ground personnel to choose from. GPS always has the possibility to fail, for the simple fact that the US military can just turn if the civilian frequencies. GPS is more or less an addition and not a crucial system (except for GPWS - while most planes have radar altimeters, they can’t react fast enough in some cases)

For those interested, here’s a Video where GPS gets jammed and there’s an explanation on what they do and what happens, when it gets spoofed www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dG_Whxzdkk

Highly depends on the approach. IFR can be a lot of stuff. All systems can be used at once as well (And in many cases, they are used all together)

nexusband, 21 days ago

Didn’t know that - i always thought all GPS sats have the ability to encrypt the signals…

Yeah, let Russia walz right through Ukraine and then Moldova - what could possibly go wrong! Apart from that, Russia is the one loosing hundreds of thousands soldiers. The difference in the way Ukraine mourns their lost ones is such, that calling Russia “Civilized” in any way is just a blatant lie. Russia is utterly disgusting.

nexusband, 25 days ago

Why would you even try to negotiate with a terrorist (and whatever else attributes Putin has attributed to him)? For a war to end, there needs to be a winner and a looser - Russia HAS to loose this, because they have been disregarding rules set by most international communities for over 100 Years.

Apart from that, Putin is not willing to negotiate - they are willing to dictated terms. That may just a be a tiny difference to your pea brain, but it’s a pretty huge one in reality. How cynical and fucked up does one have to be, to be willing to negotiate with terrorists? Not only that, how utterly depraved of any civility, intelligence and decency has anyone be, to accuse Ukraine of being “the bad guy” here?

nexusband, 25 days ago

Everybody is breaking them whenever it is convenient.

That’s what Russians are telling themself to cope with the reality, that they don’t want to see. The reality is: Nobody is breaking them like Russia. Even China doesn’t do it like Russia does. For the most part, there is accountability in the rest of the world, corruption isn’t as rampant as it is in Russia.

Well but how do you know that if you don’t negotiate? Your media told you so? Oh then it must be the truth, because it’s the other’s side media that spreads propaganda, the one that you listen to speaks the truth, am I right?

No, you couldn’t be more wrong. “The Media” told me nothing, they just translate what Russia, Putin and his cronies are talking about and there are enough people speaking Russian to raise flags if they translate something wrong. Another thing Russian propaganda is trying to do, but failing for the most part. Sure, interviews can be taken out of context, but actions also speak louder than any words anyone can utter and what russia is doing is terrorizing innocent people, displace innocent children and rip families apart.

Why is almost every negotiation with the “clearly intelligently superior westerner leftists” boils down to Ad Hominem? Why do you never have a convincing argument and have to resort to personal attacks of people you disagree with?

Because “we” are fucking tired of all these stupid antics that can’t even withstand a long hard view at the facts. All that shit about shifting the blame and goalposts, disregarding everything that was “before” is just exhausting and it doesn’t work/help anything, because every argument is met with more lies, propaganda, egoism and whataboutism.

Are you seriously talking about civility and decency while supporting a regime that hunts and kidnaps people on the streets sending them into the meat grinder? If this is what you call civility and decency, then I am indeed depraved of it.

See? That’s what is so utterly infuriating about you - there is not a single shred of evidence supporting this. No Report from anyone has ever talked about this, no interview with the people, no interview with soldiers - nothing. While the evidence Russia is doing exactly that is utterly crushing - there is absolutely zero doubt, because numerous people, outlets, pictures, satellite surveillance and various money laundering schemes reported independently the same thing over and over again.

And for what it’s worth: I’m not sure if i’m talking to ChatGPT or a proper human being, but if i’m talking to a real human being, nothing i will write here will get you off your high horse anyway, so this is more to all those people reading this in the future (if any), but let it be known that enough is enough and “the silent majority” is done being quiet.

If average joe can’t be assed to to some research, the product isn’t for average joe and that’s a good thing. Because designing a product for average joe has a lot of drawbacks.

I finally switched my gaming rig two weeks ago. Been great so far, except VR and I’ll admit, the Xbox Game Pass missing…I wish gog or someone would come up with something like it, because there have been a lot of games I started and didn’t finish because they just haven’t been my cup of tea…

Now if Autodesk would get their shit together as well, things could be happening at work as well.

nexusband, 26 days ago

That’s why I said “someone” and “something”, because I’ll be the first to admit I have absolutely no clue on how that would look like. Humble Bundle Choice is something I do like, but it’s steam only…while that’s cool in terms of proton, steam deck and so on, Steam is still a service that has to work, because without I can’t use the products. With gog I can just save those files and use them whenever and wherever I need to… Windows, Linux…doesn’t matter much.

nexusband, 25 days ago

Different Game Pass - talking about the one where you run the games locally…

100. Iran sets off a nuclear device. Russia will join in Ukraine with “They did it first!” and we’re all done for.

I’m really, really starting to hate Netanjahu. I’ll admit, I was wrong at the beginning of this year, saying he does what he has to. Everything Israel has done after the first two weeks after the terrorist attack is utterly ridiculous.

“AI” is probably simple machine learning?

Yes, it is.

I don’t know why you think that’s all propaganda, i personally like hybrid work a lot more as well. I like my office, i like being able to go for a coffee with my colleagues and so on. I do like working from home as well - but i’m totally okay with being 1-2 days in the office. However, we do have people working 90% from home - they have to come in to the office though for various things they have to do. Printing large format plans, etc, etc. You can’t just assume 100% home full time works for everyone and shift the goalpost.

Well, okay, that’s understandable then…and pretty shitty

Full support from Proxmox isn’t cheap, compared to even the new prices on VMware, if you look at the per processor cost that small businesses often have.

You’re joking, right? VSphere is AT LEAST 1400 per year for the base license, that hasn’t even got any support tickets - one Ticket is at least 300, 5 tickets is around 1200. Proxmox Full support starts at 340 Euros - with 3 Support tickets included. Then there’s also the fact, that Proxmox doesn’t have core limitations - meaning, you need at least two VSphere licenses for a 64-Core EPYC CPU. Oh, you want advanced networking or storage services? That’s even more.

As I said - it depends on processor count. I know a number of small businesses that will be paying $5k/year for VMware, not much more than Proxmox top tier (which is what they would want). Proxmox is about $1500 per processor, so would be $3k-$6k/year for these businesses. That’s a trivial difference when you look at VMware already being installed and running, no transition costs, no risk of migration. You’d burn up a few $k difference with a single issue.

WTF? You can’t even compare the 5k/year for VMware, just beacuse of the the single fact, that proxmox has UNLIMITED support tickets in the top tier. Not only that - it’s 1,1k per processor without any core limit - VSphere still has that ridiculous 32-Core Limit. In many cases, VMware also has support times up to 24 hours - proxmox has max. 2 hours

Frankly, as much as VMware annoys the shit out of me, I couldn’t recommend migrating to Proxmox for those businesses, today. At best I’d recommend planning a transition when they need to upgrade servers, and do it early as a parallel install to give transition time for the business.

SMB doesn’t have the luxury of test labs for this stuff - they don’t have the cash flow/finance room to justify it.

If they don’t, they don’t have the cash or finance room to justify their IT, period. For most SMBs, IT has become the utter lifeline for everything they do, that’s basically like when you are a machine shop without power. Meaning, the company is dead in the water for a serious period of time.
