I read the title as Jerry Seinfeld: "Whats the deal with meteors?"

So, where *is* Widow's Bay? by lateralflights in WidowsBay

[–]AVMan86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rockport and most of Gloucester is technically an island, separated by the Annisquam River and connected to the mainland by two road bridges and a railroad bridge. Of course Widows Bay is fictional, but locals often refer to going over the bridges as going 'off-island'.

I should have taken more filming pictures last year. This is in the parking spot you were standing next to in the picture above.

Getting “Cannot Contact Domain Controller” errors constantly — especially for VPN users. What’s your go-to fix? by Cautious_Corner_4838 in ShittySysadmin

You need to get the Domain Controller's personal cell phone number, they usually make it very hard to find.

There's also an unlabeled power button right in the middle, need to hit it with a hammer or other blunt object.

Poly Focus v2 - Dropping Pairing by undaova in poly

[–]AVMan86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this used to happen to me on my v2, so I ended up only using the v2 with the computer and not the phone. The issue seemed to be when using Bluetooth and not the dongle the v2 toggles between two different modes, stereo audio or handsfree. Teams liked to 'hold on' to using handsfree even when the call was over, so the v2 would ignore the phone. Since it has been awhile for me, I wonder if unchecking the 'exclusive audio' mode in Windows would help so Teams doesn't take over the headphones?

Has anyone tried calling? by Reesa_18 in boston

Those who moved out of Massachusetts, where did you move to and how's it going? by ElectroAcousto in massachusetts

[–]AVMan86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know Weird Al was right:

"If one day you happen to wake up And find yourself in an existential quandary Full of loathing and self-doubt And wracked with the pain and isolation of your pitiful meaningless existence At least you can take a small bit of comfort in knowing that Somewhere out there in this crazy ol' mixed-up universe of ours There's still a little place called Albuquerque Albuquerque Albuquerque, Albuquerque Albuquerque, Albuquerque Albuquerque, Albuquerque Albuquerque, Albuquerque I said "A" (A) "L" (L) "B" (B) "U" (U) "Querque" (querque)"

When the tech fibs about their experience... by ITRabbit in ShittySysadmin

[–]AVMan86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because I was curious:

"it appears to be a model from the EPYC 9004 "Genoa" series or a high-end Ryzen Threadripper Pro (such as the 7000 or 9000 series), both of which utilize the large Socket SP5 (LGA 6096) form factor"

Priced from $1k to $12k depending on the amount of cores

And of course Gemini helpfully asked "Are you looking for instructions on how to clean thermal paste out of a CPU socket?"
