I learned this about United this summer. Except the language they used didn't specifically rule out roller bags, it called them "full-sized carryon". I showed up with a checked bag and a small carryon. The desk agent told me wheels make it a "full-sized" regardless of the dimensions. Fortunately, I was able to stuff a bunch of stuff a bunch of my crap into my checked SCUBA bag, and repack my regs and underwear into the backpack I was bringing anyways.

Note: This was on an International flight so I REALLY didn't appreciate feeling like I was flying on a budget airline.

Do blow-molds technically count?

...As was the fashion of the time.

Also, I did set my mom with an account on my immich server, but last time I had her phone iOS wasn't playing nice with the automatic backup. I think maybe I'll take another swing at this.

The grandmother (my Mom) is probably the 2nd most tech-savy person in the chat. She has dug in on this on my sister's side. It's not a huge deal. I've accepted that I just need to wait till the defaults change. Any video I really care about I make her send straight to my wife.

I had never heard of that, but I love how part of their sales pitch is the negative review from Fox News.

I'm not OP but I might as well be. My family has a group chat that exists almost exclusively to send pics/videos of the kids to each other. It's a mixed group of android/iOS, so the videos come through with 12 pixels. I have begged and pleaded for every key to switch to telegram, GroupMe, Gchat, Facebook... ANYTHING!!

But they're all on iPhone because they specifically don't want to be tweaking or customizing anything in their phones.

You should keep a boomerang next to your kites. Then if it's windy, fly a kite, and if it's not, throw a boomerang!

Oh dang. The applicable parts of that would've saved me a lot of headache. Thanks for sharing.

I mean, you could still tell them their photos are encrypted 😉😉

(JK I wouldn't)

I tried the larger file size, but my internet is slow and google kept pulling the plug on my download. Even with a download manager it was un-resumable. Finally, I just re-exported at 2 GB and now I have to babysit the download of 23 different files.

Hey! Running the cloudflare tunnel through systemd right on the machine worked wonders! Thanks! Probably not the most secure way, but at least I know I can play with networks at a later date. For now it appears to be up and running. Thanks a bunch!
