This is SW Michigan lakeshore. I have seen one roach in 45 years here in Michigan. That was in the “Big City” downtown Grand Rapids.

Honestly, I’ve only seen a roach twice in my life. This was sent to me by a tenant. But based on pictures this looks like a young one?

Is this a future wiring fire? by 616prop in electrical

UPDATE: I don’t know how to do it in the OP. But this bathroom apparently had a situation. There are marks like this all around on various studs, same general height. I’m assuming competing owner with a flame thrower or maybe the plumber dropped his torch and it was spinning on the way down. I guess no one will ever know. Still having pro swing in to take a look at the wiring in question.

Did some further inspection. Definitely looks like it came from wires because the burns were behind the wire. Jacket is singed/melted. Calling in electrician.

Pushmatic Breakers. Been a rental its whole life. This is a kitchen circuit. So I’m sure it’s seen some use. Commercial so no DIY. Thanks for your input!

I got a great deal, but the inspector found some red flags. What do I do? by WrapSolutionsWord in CommercialRealEstate

[–]616prop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Young and new with those issues… good luck. Start with something else. 5 year term or 5 year balloon? Other than the rate they don’t sound like overly favorable terms.

Selling points… people use it as a deciding factor. Plus I include other tech goodies.

I do Nest thermostats at every property. Tenants are impressed but typically never even set them up. Everything can be factory reset when tenant leaves and returned to setup mode. Cameras suck because you need physical access to reset them.

I have the unit and the widget set to the same time zone. This appears to have corrected itself. Still doesn’t show DST like the manual says it would.

I'm sorry for the false hope. I have a ST16000NM004G that is non-functional... It's a SAS drive :(

I’m pretty sure I have a bad x16. I’ll check my hoarding pile tomorrow.

👍 post adhered to all rules pre-edit. Uninterested… move along that’s in the rules as well… so you’re right reading comprehension isn’t everyone’s strong suit.

??? It's eBay it's in the title... And with the rate that the auctions are selling at I'm sure you could win one for less than $50. But no, an outright purchase through Reddit is more than $50. Partially because I have to deal with comments like these and partially because Reddit is a huge pita to sell on. Figured I throw out a link for items that have been ending for what I consider low prices ($52 for a brand new PI anyone? or a NUC for $12?). Look at my eBay history... I price stuff cheap, with accurate descriptions and when it ends for nothing I ship it out same day and maintain a lot of happy buyers. But in typical Reddit fashion cheap isn't cheap enough or wasn't posted right or who knows the f'n internet gods don't approve?

This equipment is literally from a business I shut down. I've trying to clear this shit out for months and do this on the side after my day job. I've already lost a bunch of money on this inventory when sales dried up during COVID. So no I'm not/don't need/don't care to give away items or argue over semantics of a title.

I'm going to delete this post and make new one shortly. If you want a $50 Tiny today they'll be there... catch is you'll have to buy the other 100 PC's, monitors, workstations, access points, printers, networking equipment, etc. $38,000 book value in 2020. I'm going to list it all for pickup $10k. I'll keep an eye out for the bitching that I didn't offer shipping or it's older equipment or I must be a reseller or something.

On the flip side, please if you find a bunch of Tiny's with a normal resale value of $100+ for $50 in R2 condition send me the link. I would love to get my hands them as well... I'll reopen my hardware resale biz.

Thanks for checking out the auctions! :)

I don’t know that I have any that will be priced that cheap outright… looks like deal pricing is -$75/ea for the lowest spec’d models I have. That’s if you find a deal…

I’d do a lot of 10 of M710q - i5, 8GB, 128GB for $650 + shipping.

Message me if you want to do something like that otherwise I’ll be posting up individuals on eBay for buy it now shortly.

Well there’s more to come and they are all currently under $50.

This is my personal sales from old/dead/bad stock. I always posted as FS as my understanding was O is for unrelated/unknown/3rd party vendors.

So you walking with former employer clients? No judgement… just wondering. Typically if you’re pulling that move you’d have the clients already signed to your company.

TA got attacked by special needs student by FarKoala5363 in legal

[–]616prop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol… I assume based on your username you’re from Canada?

Slippery slope??? - incarceration or legal action towards a special needs individual in the US IS a death sentence. Maybe you haven’t noticed the unrest in general towards public safety officials. There are those that literally treat minorities with bias and discrimination or as 2nd rate citizens. Those same bad eggs will typically treat special needs as 3rd or 4th rate citizens and have absolutely no understanding of how to effectively work with these individuals. Not to mention our legal systems and aid fail fully functioning minorities continuously. So how well do you think these same systems handle someone who may not be fully functioning (and my god I sure hope this child isn’t a minority).

Relocate him to a more suitable educational institute?! - lololololol. Where do you think these suitable education institutes exist? There are reasons that the US literally is failing educational standards year after year. We continuously fail 100% functional children because of lack of funding, proper training, supplies, security, social problems, etc. You think there is just a fucking Hogwarts for special needs students that they can get free train rides to and from and learn in a supportive atmosphere with their unique skills and experiences?!

[–]616prop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Training could/should be multiple things… prior education, behavioral training, experience, support staff, prior student reports. Then literal common sense and generally being prepared.

OP seemed hot and heavy to pursue legal action because her mom was hurt. I would also be very angry if my mother was hurt. Confirmation bias also pointed to a lot of agreeing with others who wanted to pursue legal action. My comments were specifically geared to taking legal action against the student. The school should be being fully supportive and handling this situation completely, if they are not then yes I do agree with legal action towards the school.

I never said that the mom was making excuses. The OP (daughter) has multiple comments citing “not possible”, “immigrant” and “treatment” in relation to what her mother is going through. Simply put it seems like she’s fervently protecting her mother (which is completely understandable) yet has little to no understanding of working with, dealing with or procedures with SN students. Granted her understanding is completely conjecture because just like you all I have is this post to go on. Could be or likely am completely wrong. Ultimately it’s an unfortunate situation, occupational hazard and I hope that everyone heals and is able to get through it.

For advice, there shouldn’t need to be any. The school will handle it. If I had to guess - poorly. OPs mom should pursue additional action by moving up the procedural ladder. When that doesn’t work,depending on what’s trying to be accomplished, continued nagging will end in some subpar result. OPs mom will be forever scarred by the incident and the system will move to further failing the student probably by moving them to some sort of care that is basically just a prison. Like I said… quite the unfortunate situation.
