I’ve resorted to that, but I had to buy money orders on different days due to the debit daily transaction limit.

I bank mainly online but I did have a shared account with my wife at a traditional bank with that service. Unfortunately they started taking 2-3 weeks to mail it to my landlord two miles away, so I gave up on that.
They need to switch to Webauthn. SMS-based 2FA should’ve been big 10+ years ago, not today. I don’t really understand why this old style 2FA has been just now becoming popular lately.
Maybe a checking account with more than a $2,000 daily debit limit so I can pay a fortune to live in a 60’s-era shithole (but it’s “aesthetic”). Or a landlord that accepts modern payment methods.
Gonna have to buy a checkbook probably. What century is this?
Oh shit, this is my jam
Are you sure you weren’t just pushing them toward transitioning? /s
Well the correct answer is February based on 02月 but I don’t know where -tember came from.
I really don’t understand how it’s just me though. One MultiSensor 7 completely fell off the network, requiring a factory reset. After factory resetting supposedly I’m supposed to tap the button to get a solid yellow for inclusion, but after two factory resets tapping it once is a solid green.
It really feels like this is just garbage, backward technology.
I didn’t realize that — kind of dumb it was US-only when the instance TLD is .world
. 🤦♂️
I’m in an urban environment where I’m surrounded by people using crappy ISP-supplied routers set to broadcast 2.4 GHz at maximum power.
Personally I use a Ubiquiti U6-Pro with bandwidth steering to 5 GHz because the 2.4 GHz side is just trash (even with nightly channel optimization). I’d love to simply shut off 2.4 GHz but a lot of IoT insists on using it (god knows why).
As far as the Z-Wave controller, it’s an Aeotec 5th generation Z-Stick but no, I’m not using a USB extension. I’m in a tiny apartment with the Raspberry Pi 4 it’s plugged into in the middle of the apartment. I’ve only got four sensors using Z-Wave but it’s always been horribly unreliable.
For what it’s worth, about once per year the Philips hue lights just fall off and I end up factory resetting those too (I always mistakenly try to change the Zigbee channel when they’ve already disappeared).
I’ve got Philips hue lights that use Zigbee but I thought it also tried to hog 2.4 GHz spectrum; though I’m more open to it as of late considering my horrible luck with Z-Wave.
Just on a whim my best guess is that the encrypted partition(s) is automatically mounted via
/etc/fstab
.Assuming it IS NOT mounted to
/
, you could probably remove the line that mounts it on startup. Annoyingly, you’d need to manually mount the filesystem if you want to be prompted for the password.I do this with a HDD that contains all the data shared on a NAS. It’s great because my data is still protected should it shut down for any reason, but less convenient for obvious reasons.
