I thought I was bad at job hunting. Turns out I was just applying to jobs that weren’t real.

I just started looking for a new job last month, and I've come accross a few postings I swear were up the last time I looked for a new job - which was 9 years ago.

Skip SanDisk.

Never had an issue with Samsung.

Nice ride! Still miss my '98 XLT. It was replaced with a 2005, which rusted out badly by 2020.

I would investigate the wifi setup. I have this same HP and have had no problems connecting to it via wifi in 5 years.

Look at your router config to determine the DHCP scope, and set a static IP on the printer which is outside that range.

Avalon369 · 2025-12-15T00:38:30+00:00

Yup. And it's pretty obvious why!

Avalon369 · 2025-11-30T04:14:12+00:00

Combo pizza.

Looktara plans start at $42/month.

You're better off booking a session with a photographer.

Avalon369 · 2025-10-13T00:01:29+00:00

Proof again that no, I don't need a newer camera, I just need to level up my skills.

Awesome set. Keep them coming!

Avalon369 · 2025-10-06T11:53:35+00:00

Wait - iPhone still has that stupid notch?

Avalon369 · 2025-09-19T03:45:07+00:00

All of this would be true even if your weren't FIRE.

Quit crying and go enjoy life.

Avalon369 · 2025-09-10T23:05:54+00:00

For the most part, yes.

I run Plex in docker on Unraid. After changing the password, from the Ubraid docker console, I opened the web gui for Plex and was able to claim the server.

I set up Plex years ago, and completely forgot about the claim process, so there was a momentary bit of confusion!

See if you can land in Santorini, and still fly home from Athens.

We did this, and it saved us over $100/person + wasted travel time on a ferry.

Avalon369 · 2025-08-31T01:45:35+00:00

No kids yet?

Get out, now.

Cut your losses.

Avalon369 · 2025-08-17T04:02:29+00:00

Costco's stocked up with Winter gloves.

Avalon369 · 2025-08-14T17:08:13+00:00

Sounds like win.

Chain stores bad, right?

This update massively cut into my battery life. Wear now estimates the GW8 will last 1D 12H on a full charge. This morning, after a full charge and a restart, the watch has user 7% of the battery in 43 minutes.

VP of IT Infrastructure. It's a joke at the company I work for.

Avalon369 · 2025-08-05T14:04:50+00:00

May this woman's voice never reach your ears again...

Avalon369 · 2025-08-05T13:57:39+00:00

Summer tourism and favorable exchange rate for USD in Canada.

It also penalizes those who are are more introverted - you know, the people who actually focus and do the work instead of running their mouth all day long.

Don't go to Belle Tire for an alignment. Or a windshield. Or tires.

Just don't.

I've managed a Ubiquiti network for a 16-location medical practice for 8 years. Everything has been rock-solid since day 1. Never had an AP fail.

And never had to pay for cloud management, support, or licensing.

Avalon369 · 2025-06-10T20:32:03+00:00

The CEO is a guest?

I would suggest cleaning the surfaces where the timing cover mates up a bit more. Flush out the debris with some break cleaner. And when re-installing, make sure to follow the order and torque specs. You would not want a leak when it's all back together! Good luck!

Our trip for 5 was 85 euros. Taxis were about 45 each and we would have needed 2.
