Hi!

I've been surpressing a big itch to travel for some time while I've been studying as I've had classes that I need to be in physically all my semesters so far. BUT, the stars have aligned this semester, and all my classes will be fully digital which means I'm free to study from wherever I want to.

The short version:

Looking for an affordable place with good waves for a beginner/intermediate surfer and good wifi from late august until early November (maybe mid-November if I'm able to read efficiently for my exams for those two extra weeks).

The longer version:

I spent 10 days at a surf camp in Portugal and then five weeks in Indonesia (Canggu, Lombok) learning to surf three su

Hi!

Some background: I'm going to enter my third year of a three year bachelor (Europe) in CS this fall. Java is the language we've had most of our courses in for the first two years.

App development with a self-chosen cross-plattform framework is one of the classes I'm going to attend. The deal though, is that you only learn some design principles and then have to learn the framework of your choice by yourself.

I'm going to have a really hectic fall with a lot of work outside of school, and can't do less of that unfortunately, so I probably don't have the time to learn everything from the docs. So my plan is to learn Dart now in the summer time and then do these courses:

Got a good deal (50% off) on a GN-009 (20 cm chefs knife) and a GN-007 (18 cm santoku knife).

First knives, moving out on my own for the first time and have been reading about chefs knives both here and on r/chefknives. I see that a lot of people are saying

  1. The globals are brittle and will break really easily.
  2. They are hard to maintain with a whetstone.

Is it really that bad?

Also, I see that a lot of people are recommending a small pairing knife, but is that really necessary? I was thinking I'd keep both of the globals and just use those for small stuff like tomatoes and garlic, or will that be a hassle? I could also see a good use in having the santoku as a guest knife.

r/VPN•

This summer I will be travelling for about 3,5 weeks in Europe. That means a lot of hotel, airbnb and cafe wifi connections on (mostly) mine and my girlfriends phone as well as my computer.

Will this be sufficient in order to use mine and my girlfriends units safely, including bank services? Or is it a "fake security"? Is there anything I should take into consideration before buying and setting up a vpn?

Hi!

So I have a Toyota Avensis 2000 model which needs a oil change and some other repairs to be done. I'm hoping to do the oil change myself and just get a shop to do the heavier repairs, but two issues have come up.

  1. I can't find the damn oil filter. I'm used to it being at least visible from under the hood from my previous car. Anyone know where it is?

  2. If I lets say park my car on a friday afternoon and use public transport on the weekend and don't use it before monday morning again, I get a strange problem with the car.

I'll start it up monday morning and head to work. But for some reason the car gets "stuck" on just below 2000 rpms. What I mean is that if I'm driving in the 3rd

Hello!

So I downloaded Raspbian from here and tried following this guide.

I've tried both the "(mostly) graphical interface" and the "command line", but none works for me. And before you ask, yes I know my disk is "disk2".

When trying to use the command

"sudo dd bs=1m if=2016-05-27-raspbian-jessie.img of=/dev/rdisk2"

I just get "No such file or directory".

I've also tried the two other commands the instruction mentions:

"sudo dd bs=1m if=2016-05-27-raspbian-jessie.img of=/dev/disk2"

"sudo dd bs=1M if=2016-05-27-raspbian-jessie.img of=/dev/disk2"

So I know that you need at least 8GB to install NOOBS. But I'm planning on installing NOOBS (raspbian), deluge and owncloud on my pi 3 model B.

Is 8GB sufficient for this, or should I get 16GB? And If I get the 8GB, is there enough space to run/install even more (similar programs) from it?

Hello!

I'm constantly seeding about 100 torrents (ebooks) and at the same time I'm downloading movies a couple times a month, which I seed for a couple of days. I've used a seedbox in the past but it gets expensive after a while.

So I want to set up my own seedbox and thought of maybe using a raspberry pi. Is this doable? And is it possible to use a raspberry pi zero for this?

Any help would be much appreciated. :)

r/French•

I've been checking out resources and looking at posts in this sub, but it's just a lot of information and I'm not sure how to utilize it properly to learn french.

I'm trying to figure out a structured plan on how to do this, but I'm pretty lost because I'm not even sure what I should learn and when. Should I start with grammar? Learning new words? Etc.

I would really appreciate it if someone could give me some tips on a study plan. What you did in the beginning or are currently doing.


I've looked into buying some norwegian-french textbooks that local high schools use (age 16-19). Could that be a good idea?

This also leads up to my next question;

Would it be beneficial for me to le
