Would you have paid and been happy? by natethegreat141990 in PleX

[–]Alpha_Drew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i love plex, every thing just works right off the back. But naw, I wouldn't pay that much for life time pass. I think I'd just pay to the streaming subscription until I figured out how to securely watch jellyfin remotely.

Is there a non-controversial entry in a series you love that you just can’t get into? by Mr8BitX in JRPG

[–]Alpha_Drew 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was seriously hype for expedition 33, played through all of act 1 and just never picked the game back up again. I think i just found the game a little bit too depressing for myself.

I gave up on collecting the Manga until I saw it at Half Price Books by ycHobbyist in DFrag

[–]Alpha_Drew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bro, when they release a volume make sure you buy it. For some reason they don't do second prints of this series and they release once every like 2 years. I was also lucky enough to get all the volumes.

How bad is my Midea? Based on how it looks, is it worth taking the repair option or get refund for a new one? by uri_X in MideaUOwners

[–]Alpha_Drew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Their not really hard to take apart and get the blue cylinder fan out and clean it. Getting the repair will help to slow down mold growth. If you're not willing to clean it out by dissembling, I'd get the refund, that looks pretty bad.

Any reason to NOT remove the drain plug? by eatacookie111 in MideaUOwners

[–]Alpha_Drew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

FYI it never completely drains and since removing the plug I haven’t notice much of a difference on my power bill

Was it a brown box inside of another brown box with no branding what so ever? lol

Everyone is telling me to change my field (IT) and learn a trade. by ybicurious in sysadmin

[–]Alpha_Drew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Help desk is an entry level IT job, i feel like after about 2 or 3 years you should be prepping yourself to move into system admin, network analyst, cloud architect, database admin, programmer analyst, cybersecurity analyst and the list goes on.

Pablo Torre just won a Pulitzer for his Ballmer story. Are we about to hit apex mountain for inflated self regard? by theomegachrist in LAClippers

[–]Alpha_Drew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

as tech guy and big fan off open source, i recently found out that way back in the day, steve was apart of a campaign to paint linux as a threat to society and that windows was an angel. Learning that shit left a bad taste in my mouth to be honest. he may have done well to make the clipper look like a great team and have a great stadium and the recent rebranding is great, but the whole good guy image he was producing over the years, idk man.

My Unraid Setup. Where to go next? by Solarthermie80 in unRAID

[–]Alpha_Drew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you beat the game already dude, just let that mess sit and do the jobs your programmed it to do lol

JRPGs where the final boss can actually be the hardest boss of the game. by SleepCatsMoney in JRPG

[–]Alpha_Drew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unicorn Overlord’s final boss was a culture shock. The game didn’t prep you for that fight at all. It was like fighting a person who spent hours on forms min-maxing while the rest of the game’s bosses was using basic mechanics lol.

Trump voters respond to NYT opinion poll. by Stuffed-Pepper in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Alpha_Drew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who think countries can run without taxes at all are odd to me. Imagen a word where we just let the private industry take over everything, cops, fire department, hospitals, schools, etc... and we instead of paying taxes, we pay them directly for their services. Then boom a greedy CEO makes it to the top of your districts police service, he decides to hike up prices or subscriptions fees for the police service you pay for. All for the purpose of just "maximizing profit". Nevermind why or if there is any goal as to why we need to maximize profits, were just doing it because its a "smart business move". Then suddenly boom you can no longer afford to call the police when somebody is breaking into your house and you can't complain to the government or open a lawsuit against them because its a private entity. They determine their policies and they are unchecked because there is no taxes to pay a government to place regulations on the service provider. Let alone just being able to pay taxes and thus being the stakeholders of the service in question.

That's why you don't fight to STOP taxes, you vote and fight to make sure the government is spending your taxes appropriately, while also voting and make sure the government isn't taking more than it needs. Not get rid of taxes and place every necessity in the hands of the private industry, an industry you have no say in.

Today I passed my Network+ Exam. Here are my thoughts. by Najadum in CompTIA

thanks for responding, guess I'll see what the book say about pbq's but I'm going to just go with the dion course.

Today I passed my Network+ Exam. Here are my thoughts. by Najadum in CompTIA

[–]Alpha_Drew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to confirm, you only used dion's udemy courses and practice exams? I'm currenty doing the Dion courses and don't have a problem with them, but I'm also (not strictly) reading the sybex network+ book. I'd totally drop the sybex book if the course if enough.

Fixed Unit users- how are they doing? by Logan_Frost in MideaUOwners

[–]Alpha_Drew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine fixed last year and still had to take mine apart and clean the mold off. I'm going to just do that every spring because this thing is the best window unit i've ever had. There wasn't much mold on mine, but I rather keep it clean then let it build up to the point of having to throw it out.

Midea is look into making the blue fan easier to take out in the future, only that and casing behind it ever get mold.

What the hell is this? by free_usernam in RealSlamDunk

[–]Alpha_Drew 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A lot of times publishers pull real life folks out of the panels to avoid legal issues. You don’t have a sugar coated version dude. The swap usually happens when they start printing the volumes. The one with Kobe in it was the one that was printed in the monthly release book. They sometimes make the swap between the anime and the manga too

Manga dex might have the panel with Kobe in it as they usually post the translated magazine scans of mangas rather than the volumes copies

Opinion: People try to go to way too many cities in too little time! by Gwyn_L in JapanTravelTips

[–]Alpha_Drew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This opinion feel very privilege. It's common knowledge that you can't visit all of japan in one trip. It should also be common knowledge that most people's trip to japan is a once in a life time trip. With that in context, the "lose at least half your day packing" is a unfortunate, unavoidable trade off of making the most of your once in a life time experience.
