Can you drive a manual transmission?

Jump

  • Canada, 28. Yes, probably

    I did one driving lesson in a manual car, have done plenty of sim racing, and ride a motorcycle.

    So although I might not have a lot of real world experience with a manual transmission in a car, if I was put in one, I don't think I'd have any problem with it at all

  • Whelp. Guess my mind didn't even go to that use case. Was just thinking about my personal devices

  • I mean yes it can be locked. It can all be controlled by the group policy.

    But either way, they can monitor all network traffic going through their network.

  • I mean, Google's nearby share (and the Apple equivalent) are just worse versions than Syncthing.

    We already got a competitor that's better. Set it up once and it's done. Regardless if you're near or not, or have a Google account or not.

    And yet you can feel that all Google wants to do is break the service.

  • Absolutely. Everyone could use that reminder

  • Don't most work Wifi networks prevent VPN use?

    • Those who are against iOS and Apple in general, have you tried their devices lately?

    Jump

  • It's because it's not a cloud, it's direct for sync. When I leave my house, and do not have internet I'll have access to all my files because they've already been saved locally to my phone.

    No cloud puts files onto your local filesystem until you download them to your phone manually. A syncing app will put them there.

    • Those who are against iOS and Apple in general, have you tried their devices lately?

    Jump

  • Yes true, sorry.

    I'd be unable to use Syncthing to properly sync my devices on iOS as it is completely locked down. You can't run a daemon that's always running on iOS and multiple apps cannot have access to the same files. Each app has their own little sandboxed playground.

    I just try to avoid them all as much as possible because they foul my mood

    Jump

  • I'm anti-cloud for many reasons, privacy being one of them. I want access and control of my own files. I use Syncthing to sync my files between all my devices.

    I would be unable to do this on iPhone as access to the file system is extremely locked down on iOS devices.

  • Mocha goes much further than that. He's good with 30 min rides no problem. He's in his own nice comfortable trailer. Half the time he's sitting up and looking out at the surroundings, half the times he's lying down just chilling.
