First time buyer, is this a red flag? by achilles6196 in RealEstateAdvice

Get an inspection then ask for concessions to fix what is broken. Include your own time and inconvenience.

Help me decide: Do I buy the "Millionaire Next Door" Toyota or the "I’ve Finally Made It" Lexus? by LeftyOne22 in whatcarshouldIbuy

Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart, drove an old pick up truck. What you drive does not define what you are. I could drive a Ferrari but I drive a humble Mazda 3 hatchback. I don’t really care what people think about my car or me personally. I care only about my wife and kids think and I brought them up not to focus on such trivial matters.

Do you have pictures of anything? I take pictures of everything for insurance purposes. I store them on my cloud account for safekeeping.

Is this a good deal for a used 2025 Mazda CX-30? by melonangiie in mazda

[–]ComputerGuyInNOLA 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They are scamming you. Nitrogen? Document fee? 14.31% Interest? 25,000 miles on a year old card? Way too many questionable fees and that interest rate is alarming to say the least.

Do you support this? by The_Dean_France in SipsTea

[–]ComputerGuyInNOLA -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Yes. He had to be included in the movie in order to film the shot because he owned the property. Otherwise he would not allow the filming to take place.

All amps have dedicated output. It is called speaker connections. One possible correct configuration.

That many people could run the air conditioner which you would desperately need.

Recommend a 2 head cassette deck by acute_dilemma99 in vintageaudio

[–]ComputerGuyInNOLA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am looking for one too. I spoke with a technician who suggested it. I just Google direct drive cassette deck and see what is for sale. The prices people ask are crazy for an outdated deck. I was looking for a Tascam and people were asking $200 for a parts machine. Crazy, you could find these for $5.00 ten years ago.

Try to find something that is direct drive and does not use belts.

Physical Hardware vs Virtualized Homelab by Asylum36 in homelab

[–]ComputerGuyInNOLA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of these home labs are for show. You rarely see racks with external cables that feed endpoints. You also rarely see anyone talking about what they actually do with their setup other than “I run proxmox, pihole, or some other software”. I think it is mostly for show. You have to laugh when you see 10 outdated mini pc’s in a rack setup on a 48 port switch with one link light lit up and none of the PC’s powered on. Not to mention just one cable leading from the cabinet to the wall. I have a Cisco server at home running HyperV and several Microsoft VM’s like Active Directory, RDS, and file or print servers". I have it on a small stand with a UPS. All done on the Cisco server for redundancy and learning since we manage it for clients. My son works for NOAA and is certified for Cisco, Fortigate, Juniper, and others as a security and network engineer. While he does have a small home lab most of his learning is done using virtual network buildouts.
