This literally happened to me recently. Was going to Germany for 2 weeks and wanted to use a cheap eSIM for data only. I asked them if they could unlock my phone so I could do this, and they said no since it’s not paid off. I still have a new months left to pay it off, and didn’t wanna drop $250 to do that so I just had to pay the international data plan. $12(maybe $10? Can’t remember) a day, 10 day maximum charge per cycle so I’ll pay $120 for mine and $60 for my partners. Instead of the $11 30gb data plan I wanted. I’m never buying a phone from a carrier again, I will always just buy it outright from now on. It was a stupid situation.
Also the data roaming sucked, each time we moved from one provider network to another we had to restart our phones as the data didn’t wanna work…
Do you have a source for this? That was my worry tbh.
As a heads up, you can swap the mother board in a Framework. It is expensive for the newer higher end ones, but it is an option.
I think they meant you could use any account that is an admin with runas to elevate.
Has power management for laptops gotten any better in the last couple of years on desktop Linux? I distro hopped for a year 3ish years ago but just didn’t like the fairly significant reduction in battery life.
Huh. Well yeah I never knew that either, growing up in the South that was a pretty common saying with a similar spelling to how I wrote it originally(being the south the misspelling makes total sense now haha). Nice to know where it comes from though. Thanks for the info!
It’s an American saying, basically meaning a lot of money in this case. You can use bookoo to mean a lot of any thing really.
TLS/SSL Certs for Docker-based Lemmy deployment
I was hoping to get some help from you all, since I assume there are a good number of people here selfhosting their own instance of Lemmy. There doesn't appear to be a search bar for per community searching, so I thought I'd post my question in case anyone else has a similar one. I've created my own Lemmy instance running in Docker based on the dev's provided documentation. Used their example docker-compose.yml file and others, and just customized the needed options. I've got everything working except one important part, TLS/SSL certs. I'm not familiar with nginx at all, but it seems like I simply need to map another volume from local:container for the cert, however when I've mapped certbot/conf/:/etc/nginx/ssl/ and restart all the containers, this doesn't enable HTTPS.
I've read a couple different places online that talk about adding CertBot as a service etc, however none of these were specially for Lemmy. So I wasn't sure this would work given the extra config file for nginx. Any a
“But then I took a sword to the face…” idk which one is worse!
