  • I used to subscribe to Linux format! I got the back issues on exactly/Exact Editions too, so for a while I could also view every issue on my android tablet. Those were the days.

    I don’t even know if Exactly is still around anymore.

    Edit - nope, I was thinking of New Humanist magazine, oops. But I did used to get Linux Format through the door. I remember they used to have rackspace ads on the plastic weather cover











  • Americans know it as Apple Crisp, because the US has to perpetuate the myth than American English is anything but a bastardisation of an existing language and therefore have different words for the same thing.

    And yes. Hot Ambrosia® custard, not ice cream, and not Birds®. Just as I was served at school dinners (which somehow bow are called lunch).

    Press and hold? I hadn’t thought about that idea to be honest, I’ll have to try that next time. I use Vivaldi on both Android and desktop, which is based on Chromium (the open source project base for Google Chrome).

    Edit - just tried it, didn’t work for me. It’s not an option in my menu. I’ll try and figure out the dev console on mobile and post here if I figure it out.



  • Stock android without an unlocked bootloader will not give you access to the hosts file, and there shouldn’t be a firewall you don’t know about. Can you run a vbox or live USB on another machine on your network to see if it will see the server?

    I just saw you already answered about the same gateway and mask. Hm. I’m thinking there’s probably a janky setting on your router, that’s the only place I can think of that might have a poorly configured or unconfiugred firewall. Especially if it works on the cellular using the VPN.

    Good luck with it, I’m sorry I don’t have the exact answer!

    Edit - just saw your edit. Computing is like that sometimes! Glad you got it working. 👍
