Beautiful.

We actually have electric recliners and it just dawned on me that they should have usb sockets since they’re connected to an outlet.

I see no Classical is that right?

Same. We even had a music store in the UK, called Music Zone, this place would let you buy a CD and if you didn’t like it you could return it and get a refund and then rinse and repeat.

As for parents. Mine had no clue what I was doing on the computer, but even when they learned due to all the people coming to the door, they were pretty chill.

It got bad when our ISP would charge us for excessive downloads.

I decided to go with Cloudflare. Thanks for the rec.

This is very helpful. Thanks.

Great. Thanks for this as I can now look for ones that has that option.

This has the most upvotes so far so checked it out first.

I’m at the basket stage but don’t see an option to not add my details to the public database like I did on names.co.uk. Do you know if that’s an option.

I wonder why we have to have registrars or to put it better I wonder why a person can’t buy a domain for life and own it.

Registrar. That’s the term. Thanks.

I’ll check out their pricing.

Do you know if they still have to share you details as who owns the domain? Not that I’m up to anything sinister, just will be for a home server but still nice for anonymity and places like names.co.uk charge more for hiding those details.

I really do hope we hear from him. I find it nice that he has communicated with so many of us in this thread and I hope he learns that people are a little concerned.

Nicole. She keeps spamming peoples inboxes with the following:

This looks like they provide hosting services?

I believe a domain name provider are the folk that sell domain names.

That’s a good point I used to see him all the time and chatted with him some.

Last I spoke, in public comments in here, he had completed his move to the UK (where I live too) so perhaps he’s just been busy with all the changes.

Edit: Good on you for asking.

I feel lucky to be in the position I am, especially given my sketchy past and shaky start to life and I can’t stress that enough to others who may see this.

What about yourself, what do you do? And do you enjoy it?

Edit: Just realised you’re OP and you’ve described your work in the post.

Thanks. They really are.

I’m a software developer with 4 others and two owners who also code most of the time.

We are consultants so we get approached my clients exclusively via word of mouth. They treat the clients just as fair as they treat us so we get lots of repeat work and recommendations. Quite a large local authority too which is nice.

We can be making a whole host of different applications which I don’t want to disclose here in case that isn’t something I am allowed to discuss. Basically though if you could think of a system for a business then we could make it.

Not that I am the smartest person but one of the owners is the smartest person I’ve ever met and I don’t believe there is anything they couldn’t build.

Question kinda related to this post.

I’m looking to get back into piracy and have been saving to build a server to handle it. I’m now hearing about these seed boxes in the cloud.

So my question is this a viable option until I build a server. Like I can set up torrents and maybe Radarr, etc. then just use my home pc for Jellyfin and connect it to the seed box? Or is the seed box mainly used to do the torrenting before you STFP the files to your actual server?

I enjoyed it.

It’s odd that you would call anything subjective overrated.

It’s a long story so I will try and bullet point it as I don’t have a lot of time to answer.

• Mid to late thirties and I’m thinking I’m a failure at life. Think I have ADHD but never diagnosed. Had 50+ jobs to this point and I always quit or lose them for poor attendance etc, mix in a little fraud to supplement wages.
• Apply to an insurance company and begin training. Someone I had screwed over (I am a better person now) reported me to management and they fired me.
• decided to apply to Apple as a Christmas temp and get hired for 3 months.
• excel at being faux extrovert and apply for Genius Bar as a Technical Specialist. Get hired.
• Begin work at the Genius Bar where I thrive cause being a fake extrovert actually makes you happier at times, but you leave work drained.
• Realise we have healthcare and seek an ADHD diagnosis, which I got.
• surrounded by talented people and infinite support from management I decide to do a software development bootcamp.
• excel at coding as I had always been interested and I am even at a higher level than the teacher and they’re blown away by my projects.
• suck at interviews and so do another bootcamp, 😔, as this one also get you interviews.
• excel at this bootcamp too and still suck at interviews.
• must have gone for 30 jobs and didn’t get any.
• start to feel down but finally get hired to a small company.
• life really isn’t any greener over here and I still struggle to maintain happiness.
• company I work for is excellent. All about work life balance and the work is secondary to us.
• been 18 months. Got a pay rise after 1 year. Then 6 months later we all get a pay rise again and a reduction in hours.
• we only work 33 hours a week now with 21 days holiday which goes up one day each year until you’re at 25 days.
• don’t have to lie about why I am sick. If not having a good mental health day then I tell them and I am not expected to work.
