    Need help in port forwarding (Airtel Xstream with Static IP)

    I've done this exact thing at work recently using Tailscale - main server behind a CGNAT, connected to WireGuard mesh, VPS also connected to mesh, and Caddy as a reverse proxy between the two. As for hardware requirements, it obviously depends on what your load but I've seen benchmarks of Caddy...

    Review Flac vs Premium streaming services (Alac, Spotify etc)

    This may be a controversial thing to suggest in this thread, but to everyone saying they can hear the difference between FLAC/ALAC/WAV and 256/320kbps AAC/MP3: have you ever done a blind ABX test? This one here, for example - I don't think I've ever seen anyone pass it, and this includes people...

    Move installed games on Windows 10 from C drive to D drive

    Then you should be able to move the files and just edit the shortcut - I think I've done that before with one of those repacks

    Move installed games on Windows 10 from C drive to D drive

    For most games (as long as they're not installed in a launcher like Steam), the junction won't even be necessary - you can move the files and just edit the shortcut and they'll probably work fine. If they are installed through a launcher, it'll probably have an option to move it in the settings.

    New 0-click Bluetooth Vulnerability - They don't need you to do anything

    I'm on the Android 13 November patch, so technically vulnerable. It's a bit scary, but from that article it seems like a necessary prerequisite is knowing the devices MAC address, which only happens if it's discoverable, and most phones these days only turn that on when you're trying to actively...

    Has anyone used www.ospreyindia.co.in?

    I think he was looking for a jacket he used to have way back that he liked, which was apparently really good in the cold. In any case, extreme weather isn't really relevant to us since we live in Kerala :P

    Has anyone used www.ospreyindia.co.in?

    One of my friends recently had this exact thing happen to him, except with North Face - very legit looking website (first result on Google and everything), but something looked off on their payment page, so he checked, and it turns out North Face has no presence here.

    Review Superczar pulled back from a committed deal. How do I give a negative rating?

    Ah, OK, that makes sense. I've been wondering for a while since I don't think I've ever actually seen a seller with a negative rating - this clears it up, thanks.

    Review Superczar pulled back from a committed deal. How do I give a negative rating?

    This seems to be a common sentiment in this thread - perhaps it's because I'm relatively new here, but isn't it usually the case that fraudulent behaviour like that would be grounds for an immediate ban rather than a bad review? I'm not saying that this specific incident merits a negative...

    Is the Galaxy Watch the 42mm or the 46mm?

    Need help with Win10 automation using PowerShell script. Want notifs to be off when external display is connected.

    Isn't this a standard feature on Windows 10? Here's a how to I found online for it; Windows 11 has it too, but in a slightly different spot. This should work unless you want to do this even when extending your display, which shouldn't be necessary since your notifications should only show up on...

    Do you carry pocket knives? If yes what blade do you carry?

    Interesting, I didn't know that. Is it based on the total mass of metal, or the density? Because I've definitely walked through those scanners with lots of metal in my bag and such, but maybe that's not enough to trigger the higher alarm? The most I've gotten is a few seconds of loud, continuous...

    Samsung - T7 Shield 4TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 or Crucial - X6 SE 4TB External USB-C/USB-A Portable SSD

    The Samsung looks like the better option given the ruggedness, but they'll probably perform similarly enough that you won't notice a difference (depending on your use case). That said, if you don't need the ruggedness I'd probably just go for a regular 4TB internal SSD like this one and put it...

    Do you carry pocket knives? If yes what blade do you carry?

    In my experience nobody ever actually checks you when the scanner goes off outside of an airport. Malls, metros, trains - it always goes off and I've never been checked. In fact, it's probably better for it to be in your pocket than in your bag or something, because they'll actually see that on...

    Storage Solutions SSD and enclosure for data storage

    I'd go for the Crucial P3. You could upgrade your boot to PCIe 4.0 as @SkyWreak suggested, but it's unlikely to have much of an impact on performance vs a PCIe 3.0 one, and a quick look on Amazon shows a price premium of around 40-50%, so IMO it's not worth it.

    Storage Solutions SSD and enclosure for data storage

    Don't know how much I trust Zebronics, and the reviews don't seem great. I personally use Orico, have had several over the years and they're still working fine. As for the SSD, what capacity are you looking for? The Crucial P3 is priced pretty good right now.
