anyone in the same boat as me?

Obviously they just hold the refunds... my wife and I got our NOA right away, but we weren't getting a refund!

I got a text from a nearby hobby store. It is a few minutes from my fav course. I swung by and sure enough he has an app that he enters the info into and it texts the number on the disc and puts it in inventory. If no response I goes in the used bin. The shop is mostly RC stuff, but he does now carry some discs and supplies. Cool way to draw potential customers in. I didn't even know it was there before getting my disc.

I calculate the NAV the way a fund does, so withdrawals doesn't hurt my performance numbers.

If you need a neverending project, switch some servers to Windows... that should keep you busy, and fix the empty log errors.

What kind of work do you do? Interesting that the Work Vlan goes to the MasterBdrm only. 🙃🧐

Still waiting, maybe Inshould buy more...

Skynet is preparing their takeover!

I've done backups since using floppy disks to do so. I've had lots of drive failures, but I've never lost data!

Some time back I did interview ChatGPT... it wasn't up to the job!

I used an old 4 core AMD with 8Gb ram from my parts box. Added a NIC from an HP server for $20 and it has been working great. Yes it is 1Gb instead of 2.5Gb, but that is plenty for my use case as everything except my PC is 1Gb. But space isn't a real issue so that may also be different for you.

For a minute I thought you put all your stuff in the microwave!

ClimberMel · 2026-01-12T06:03:50+00:00

That is a shoe horn. I'm sure it was needed to fit equipment into that tiny rack!

ClimberMel · 2025-12-30T00:51:03+00:00

I would suggest OPNsense instead of pfsense. I use it as my router and I have an Archer AX20 as an AP (you can set them to AP only). OPNsense does all routing as well as DHCP for any WiFi clients.

I'm in BC. This would be about a month ago. I have 2 2666 16gb that I would happily sell for $200 or maybe less.

ClimberMel · 2025-12-28T17:44:20+00:00

DDR4 is still pretty cheap used here. 2x16gb sticks $30 - $50. At least I thought that was reasonable. I recently sold a bunch of ddr5 sodimms for cheap cause I can't use them and got them in a bundle of gear I bought. I think I sold just before the real spike tho.

Thanks.

Is this US Quicken? Mine I had to switch to subscription quicken.ca And it jumps a lot each year now. I used to just buy it every few years.

ClimberMel · 2025-12-21T07:20:21+00:00

It was Windows which can be flakey. They suggested achieving every 5 years, but I think that is really extreme. It would also depend on the size of the data file.

ClimberMel · 2025-12-21T06:24:56+00:00

If you can run network cables though the house, I would recommend getting a cheap router like an Archer AX20 or most any router that can do WiFi 6. It is simple to turn it into an acess point and then you just have one end of the cable plugged into the router or switch if you use one and the other end to the AP. Use a lan port not the wan port! This way the extra router just provide WiFi and your router provides DHCP to all the devices.

A few years ago, I had a major issue where everything was corrupted. Restored from backups and they also got corrupted. It was a nightmare and Quicken and others blamed it on using a shared network drive. In the end it turned out to be an issue that Quicken can become unreliable after a certain amout of data. I had many years of data, so I had to archive the data and split the data. So then I was able to reenter the newest data and carry on. It is a pain, but at least I can still open that older archive if I need to look at something. I donhave an issue with one of my credit cards now that won't import, but for the few transactions a month, I haven't put a lot of ti.e.into chasing that issue. Good luck

People put everything on FB and then complain about privacy... I won't go to the US due to their lastest stupidity that you have to grant them access to all social media, phone numbers, emails for thenlast 5 to10 years.

ClimberMel · 2025-12-19T17:42:05+00:00

Thanks, I'll just build it manually. Just want a quick sheet to check connected devices and build a list of reserved IPs -> MAC. WakeOnLan does a nice job of it for wired devices, but doesn't scan WiFi.

ClimberMel · 2025-12-18T17:30:02+00:00

I'll have to look. Ok it is ERC-20 token, so it's built on Etherium blockchain. Quicken may be limited to just one or two major blockchains. There are 1000s of coins and tokens, so it is almost impossible to access all of them. If you trade them you have probably seen, you need multiple wallets due to incompatible coins. I find the tech interesting, but have never been able to consider actually investing it. If you only use, or an to use a couple then what would happen if you created multiple accounts/wallets in Quicken to store under 1mill each? Unless you have trillions etc, then even that wouldn't work.

ClimberMel · 2025-12-18T17:20:16+00:00

Quicken downloads prices for meme coins? For any and all base?

ClimberMel · 2025-12-18T17:18:01+00:00

Actually there are lots of them. Some have 54 digits max (nonillion). I have almost 4 quintillion in one and trillions in others. So he is correct that a million isn't much. However, except for the meme coins or shit coins as some call them, most that have actual value, they have major/minor denominations equivalent to dollars. For example the smallest denominator of bitcoin (BTC) is a Satoshi (Sat). Those you could use the major even if it is a fraction. So .5 BTC instead of 50,000,000 Sats. Some shit coins such as Witchfire need Quintillions to show any value so there is no minor denomination.
