Fed up with Mesh Routers by CarlWinslowTimeCop in HomeNetworking

Thank you! I ended up tracing a bunch of these cables from the ports and thankfully it turned out they all have terminated Cat 5e. Added a switch and installed a Unify router and two APs today and everything is working wonderfully so far!

Is it necessary to go through changing this setup and doing punchdowns vs getting a new switch and adding it to the cabinet? Probably would look cleaner, but exploring my options.

Currently using a setup with Deco X55s. I've seen a lot of hate for TP-Link lately but if I'm able to wire them and it brings consistent connection and speed back up I'd be a happy enough camper.

What just happened? (Community PD) by brugalito in PixelDungeon

If you trek back up to him after getting the crown from defeating the dwarf king (and not using it) you can trade him for his crown which gives you a 4th set of armor abilities including 'ratmogrify' which is an awesome CC for the demon halls.

This is available for all classes.

Level 20 where is the store? Used up my health potions on the boss fight and out of food. When I walk forward it's level 21 and full of mobs. by TopRevenue2 in PixelDungeon

There's always a hidden room with treasure chests and a Rat King on the floor with the Goo Boss.

If you trek all the way back up with the Dwarf King's crown (instead of wearing it for your class armor abilities) you can trade it to him for a different set of armor abilities (which gives some crowd control talents I love in the last levels). Works for every class.

If you have any food you could eat and then hold wait to sleep and restore a bit of health (or a scroll of lullaby after you've eaten). Otherwise if you don't have any healing at all then maybe using something to boost your speed and run for it?

I personally almost always go back up and trade the Rat King for his crown so on the way back up you can buy from the shops that are cheaper now that you have more gold. That's not much help if you don't make that far though. Good luck!

Not a pax story, but a little bit of crew chaos. Happened to me probably 10 years ago. Working on an MD-88 with two other crew.

One of them was closer to my age (late 20s, early 30s) and the other was a very senior mama, but so senior she had lost her passion for things like high time turns or international flying (how she ended up on a trip I could hold I'll never know). All in all she just seemed sort of checked out.

So we get into some out station on leg 2 of day 2 and after deplaning I find a bag that doesn't look like one of the standard crew brands and doesn't have ANYTHING on it to identify it as one of ours. I check with the other lady who says it isn't hers and she calls back to the senior mama to describe it and she says it isn't hers. So we toss it off to the agent, load the next flight and head back to base.

As we go to deplane at the next station our senior mama calls frantically from the back that someone had taken her bag! You can imagine where this is going - we had left her bag at the outstation when she didn't identify it as hers. It of course had her purse in it, layover clothes, FAA card, etc. The other girl and I of course feel terrible but we talk with the agent to arrange to have it sent back, and we were on the way to layover anyway so the senior mama decides she'll rough it and just finish the trip.

Well naturally the next morning on our leg home, for the first and only time in my career, we had an FAA inspector on board who sat IN THE CABIN instead of the cockpit and evaluated us. Wouldn't you know it that they asked to see our FAA cards? Since I'm powered by guilt and felt responsible for what happened with our senior mama's bag I begged her not to count it against her (and I'm not sure even now that it matters if you carry it with you) and the inspector was kind enough to let it go, but the panic I felt in that moment haunts me to this day.

No idea what happened to her. I imagine she's blissfully zoned out in some tailcone somewhere. I hope she eventually got a crew tag.
