This isn’t a Windows thing, it’s a firmware thing. It’s HP’s doing, and HP is well known for screwing with the usability of their devices. In my case, on my Victus, it’s F10 that opens UEFI, but the menus are incredibly stripped down. Looking online, F10 seems to be the key to access it on your device, too. Maybe you just aren’t getting the timing right, sometimes you gotta mash the absolute hell out of that button to get it to register. Once you do get it, setting a post delay will make it easier in the future.

Oh, wow, that’s absolute bullshit from Google in that case.

This is kinda like Windows with the “We don’t recognize this application” message. Letting it scan will probably just help other users avoid this annoyance in the future. You can also shut off play protect from the play store settings.

I’m with the only uncapped service in my area, it’s $90/mo for 10mb/s and it’s unreliable as all fuck.

I made the mistake of going to their /b/ board one time. In short, yes, people do. Horrifying gore, too. Just basically don’t. Like, ever.

The problem with the comparison here, however, is that that place moves incredibly fast and deletes everything automatically and permanently. Even if the feds came knocking for 4Chan, there’d probably be nothing to show. Lemmy, on the other hand, apparently caches everything locally until you manually purge it (so I’ve heard).

I’m new to this and I was curious, what’s the screen on the side? Like, what’s it showing and what are you using to do so?

My server is literally a laptop from 2010 running Ubuntu server with some external hard drives and an old cooling pad.

Damn, a good point. I already use ZeroTier for this kind of stuff, I don’t know why I never thought of that.

Lol, gonna be honest, it would be pretty hard telling my friends about this awesome thing I learned about called Crackpipe.

That said, it’s not really something I could do anyway. My ISP doesn’t let me host servers, and they’re the only ISP in my area without disgustingly draconian data limits.

I’ve done it a couple times. Based on what I’m reading from other users, I guess I got lucky with one, because I got back a personal response thanking me and assuring the abusive whatever was dealt with.
