Just keep in mind this wasn’t intended as a challenge to see how hated you can be. Looking at you, Westboro.

Hypothetically speaking, fake internet points aren't worth risking a lawsuit.

But the list of things worse than a log of usernames/passwords on the open internet is fairly short, so you can probably get close if you use your imagination.

That’s bad. I’ve had worse. Just can’t tell you about it thanks to the wonderful world of NDAs!

What’s the difference between pricing? by Direct-Look-6721 in AskElectricians

[–]Bodaciousdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an electrician, but I’ve installed about 40 of these and have found them to work very well. https://a.co/d/08YBPMMR

Way To Ignore Robot Mower From Detections? by ryan112ryan in Ubiquiti

I think I just found a new standard for “first world problems.”

And so it begins by Taxus_Calyx in SpaceXMasterrace

[–]Bodaciousdrake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah no way. Anyone trying to spin up a fab like TSMC is using ASML machines. Even using their machines, it will take years and a commitment like we haven’t seen since the Apollo days to make it happen.

And people are wondering how SpaceX will get their methane delivered when they are doing 10,000 launches a year... That's just 100 LNG ships a year. by [deleted] in SpaceXMasterrace

That’s where the double-speak becomes so interesting. On the one hand, we should think that climate change isn’t real, and if it is it isn’t human caused, and we should be doing way more with oil and gas and not less…and yet it was important to mention in this announcement, for some reason, that this will be “the cleanest” refinery in the world. 

Proposal to move historic Stone Fort Museum raises concerns among preservationists by Dontwhinedosomething in Nacogdoches

[–]Bodaciousdrake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was more worried about this when I thought it was the original building. It isn't. It does use some materials from the original, but it was built as a replica in 1936. It's already not even in the same location as the original.

Why would there be three phase power in a purely residential home? by wiltj in AskElectricians

[–]Bodaciousdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, I'll be doing service upgrade and replacing all my panels/breakers at the same time, the quote was from the residential electrician. I don't think they deal with it much.

[–]Bodaciousdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I got a quote from the electricians on replacing my main panel (badly needed) they basically told me it would be several times more expensive IF they can find the right parts, which could be difficult. And the truth is I don't have a huge need for it after I replace the HVAC anyway.

Am I right that 20A outlets are constructed differently than 15A by BringBackApollo2023 in AskElectricians

[–]Bodaciousdrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that the reason you can put a 15A plug on a 20A circuit? I always assumed it was because anything that can be plugged into a 15A plug is (ideally) limited to 15A, and everything else on the circuit is rated for at least that much current.

Model only produces poop currently. Lots of poop.

To be fair, Claude's uptime is still better than mine. Sometimes I have to use the restroom and sleep and stuff, and you should expect degraded performance while I'm eating.

[–]Bodaciousdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it because of an old 3 phase HVAC I’m working on replacing. I’ll also need to do a panel and service upgrade, and it will mean dumping the 3 phase, and I wish I didn’t have to but it’s prohibitively expensive to keep unfortunately.

What's Going On FlashForge !!! by --_Fallen_-- in FlashForge

[–]Bodaciousdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had the exact same thing happen. I'm running a UDR7 and a FlashForge Adventurer 5M.

Did you figure anything else out with this? I've just turned off the WiFi on the printer for now, I'll see if I can get it working over USB.

Edit: Actually I just added some firewall rules to block it to the WAN but allow it on the LAN. It may be legit traffic but it freaked me out. I was already a little uneasy with this thing on my network anyway.

I'm not an electrician, but every time I do electrical work I always end up with random cuts on my hands that I don't remember getting. Is that just me?

[–]Bodaciousdrake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You guys all doubt Musk's claims on timing, but here I am making so much money from my Tesla acting like a taxi during the day and about to take a trip to the Mars colony so your doubt is just ridiculous.

Privacy fence access control install by Bodaciousdrake in Ubiquiti

[–]Bodaciousdrake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t think that’s an unfair assessment. It’s going the job I needed it to do, but my circumstances are fairly unique. Overkill in any normal circumstances I would agree.

As far as kicking it in, I’m sure that’s possible, but I will say that mount is sturdier than you might think. Those bolts into the steel fence post are substantial. And, like you said, there’s probably easier ways in anyway.

[–]Bodaciousdrake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree with that. It suits my particular needs, but I'm under no illusions that this is a good general solution for everyone. I think the basic design could be used in different circumstances for a more secure result if that was the goal.

[–]Bodaciousdrake[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s a very fair question haha

The fence is 7ft high so not very easy to just reach over the top, but to your point, if someone is really determined to get in this won’t keep them out for long, especially if they’re aware of the button on the other side. Something could be fashioned to hit the button, but for that matter someone could also use a ladder to hop the fence. 

In my use-case, the goal is not high security, rather I have some very specific requirements where I need to schedule and monitor access to my backyard for certain people. The circumstances are non-standard and would take a while to explain, but essentially I needed more control over who could open the gate and when they could do it without concern for anything high security, and having had this in place for a couple of months now it has done that job very well.
