One example I remember… getting an appointment for Global Entry.
If you’re not American, you might not know what that is… but it’s an expedited airport/immigration program in the US and getting an appointment often takes months.
You can use tools like this to monitor the appointments page for cancellations. I didn’t use this specific tool but I used something similar when I signed up for GE and was able to get an appointment 2 weeks after I applied.
I just had a strange issue with Watchtower where it somehow failed to update itself. And it left a running but unhealthy duplicate of itself. Just restarting the old container fixed it. But I guess that’s a risk?
There are some third party apps on Android that allow you to upload custom firmware to devices like electric scooters in order to change default settings. Those simply don’t exist on iOS, I assume because they aren’t allowed. I would definitely like to try that.
It’s definitely a niche thing but I’d love to have emulators on my phone.
And there have been a few other instances where I’d like to do something not allowed by the App Store. My electric scooter has lots of unofficial Android apps that let you change default settings by uploading custom firmware. But those apps are not allowed on iOS. So I would have to borrow an Android device to do it.
Yes it’s niche but it’s pretty annoying for those use-cases that are simply banned by Apple.
Would be cool if it tracked credit card annual fees.
I’m confused by Synology’s OS and how you actually view the SMART report but it just says “Healthy” and now it isn’t even showing the bad sectors anymore…
