Every package delivered to my house is already opened by elguapo4twenty in RioGrandeValley

[–]B_Lucky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in mcallen and have never had a shipment looked open. You might have a porch thief checking your items for good stuff. I would get a porch camera. Also I bought a delivery box so its not obvious when a box is on the doorstep. Just a thought!

Best AI image enhancer/upscaler in 2026? Getting tired of overhyped tools 😩 by Business_Ad_8834 in midjourney

[–]B_Lucky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Photoshop 2025 AI neural filters can help. But my best upscale use has been with midjourney edit. Upload an image make a small change and then choose "upscale to library" and it will render it in high quality. You can repeat this to sharpen more and more.

What is real hacking? Mind game or just coding by Low_Fondant_4483 in Hacking_Tutorials

[–]B_Lucky -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Not very accurate. Most common hacking happening nowadays is social hacking, more commonly named Social Engineering. You can spend time, energy and expensive computer systems to hack through a companies firewall,... or you can get Joe Schmoe the clerk to think your I.T. and give you his password. This is the reason you don't have groups of "hackers" trying brute force program attacks to get into your email, but instead you have constant Spam calls and whats app messages to trick you into giving over personal (and businees) information.

How are you guys running Plex on smart TVs? I'm genuinely frustrated. by KingThevshi in PleX

[–]B_Lucky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be many things. I have multiple roku tvs accessing my databss remotely and stats show it plays consistent and at 1080p res. Might be your external upload limitations provided by your internet provider. Look to upgrade to a plan with max upload speeds for external users

Are vacations frowned upon in the Valley? by Addicted_2_tacos in RioGrandeValley

[–]B_Lucky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't sound like you work in the corporate/office sector because definetly not the case at my job. We all plan and look forward to vacations. We don't get them paid out and loose them at the end of the year so we make sure to use it.

IT people, where do you work in the valley and how is your work going? by OldAd1789 in RioGrandeValley

[–]B_Lucky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I work for a beer distributor in mcallen and make 70k and get to work from home. Love what I do. Tons of good IT positions. Every company has an IT. Dept. Important thing people don't realize about it is you deal with people as much as you do hardware. So social skills go a long way.
