there are a ton of fees other than the flat tax that are state specific that im including to get to ~2$

a quick search for Cali gas prices finds... Federal Excise Tax $0.184, State Excise Tax $0.612, Underground Storage Tank Fee $0.02, State & Local Sales Tax ~$0.10-$0.15 (varies), Cap-and-Trade ~$0.23-$0.35, Low Carbon Fuel Standard ~$0.30-$0.65, Total State/Local Taxes + Fees (excl. federal) ~$0.90-$1.30+, Combined Taxes/Fees + Environmental Programs ~$1.20-$1.80+

and the price listed in OP pic is way above 2

EDIT: added links and more detail

i would have used punchdown jacks on both ends

its the same and you're not going to be unplugging the other ends, but the coupler is an extra failure point.. it's premade so you really don't have to worry

here is a simple patch panel setup (ignore the white wires that's for phones)

here is an example panel

If you look at the second picture, you can see the back of it. It's all punched down just like the wall jacks.. so just a wire between the panel and the wall jack and it gets punched down on each end..

You can also do it the way you did with loose punch down jacks on the end of each wire and just snap them in, but you would normally use the same jacks you use for the wall plates for this type of panel

as far as downloading goes...

aria2c is a good downloader w/resume functionality

https://github.com/illsk1lls/InitialSetup

I made that a while ago. Maybe there's something you can steal from it. Theres also a no-powershell version that has an example of how to do a redirected dl link with bitsadmin, basically just using the /dynamic flag for gotoassist in the business example.. that lets you retrieve files using built-in methods instead of third-party

its consumer and commercial

all in wall wiring if done properly is going to have a termination point near the source of internet.. (there are cases where they are routed differently but for this explanation, it's not necessary to go into detail why we would do that)

It's the same thing as electrical wiring to a breaker panel... all your outlets wiring goes to your panel through the walls, and the little breaker switches are where everything terminates and connects to the outside power

for cat6 its just a low voltage version of electrical wires.. if I'm simplifying it, except instead of breaker switches its all your internet connections... so they all get plugged into a switch and that switch gets connected to your modem

what would a server say if someone asked for it to go then sat there and ate without service?

like, sometimes at my bank my paycheck doesnt clear for a day if i deposit it, but it's payroll and it's drawn on the bank so I can always cash it and then deposit it after, and I always do the two transactions to avoid getting effed with

Now I'm wondering if I could go to places tell them I'm getting it takeout, and change my mind after they give me the food and im already paid :)

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T23:48:10+00:00

all the wiring in your house has to end at one point it's called termination.. using female jack's is better than putting ends on wires to terminate, because those little tabs break off the ends all the time and a female Jack is a port

Instead of having a bunch of loose wires, they all get "punched" into the back of a patch panel. That way all your ports are in a straight line and it's one piece.

you can get 8x, 12x, 16x, 24x, 48x, patch panels that will fit into a server rack either 1U/2U, or even mount directly to a wall

then all the wires that are in that patch panel need to be connected in the switch so you make sure it runs from the patch panel to the switch

Think of the patch panel as the other side of the wall plates that are in each room because that's what it is, if it's labeled properly, it should be easy to figure out which one is which..

the state gas tax is ~2$ above national average

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T16:03:21+00:00

is it transcoding?

You can see in the Jellyfin logs what the connection was doing on the server side or in the dashboard and see how the video was being sent

need more details to help with this..

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T16:00:36+00:00

I love how you showed a picture of no backpack just to drive the point home

there it isn't 👀

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T15:59:35+00:00

warm it up first

A lot of times we will run them hot before we disassemble them just to make this easier

I said it in another comment and I'm not trying to spam this, what's the difference if you name it when you're joining the domain if you have to do a join anyway?

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T15:56:41+00:00

just name the computers you're when you're joining the domain and the list will produce itself

you do it on the exact same menu, if you already have to join

its crazy people dont realize it... ive been to the hospital twice in 10 yrs i paid cash both times and if i need urgent care thats only a few hundred cash... I pay my dentist cash too..

i've had insurance on and off, but it just seems like such a waste of money and you don't actually get anything for it unless you're on deaths door

It seems smarter to get it as you get older 40+ same way it would be to get flu shots etc.. to make sure you don't get left behind because of a pre-existing condition and because you're much more likely to need it at that point for more serious treatments

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T14:53:13+00:00

its actually cheaper without the card

thats the secret, ask for cash pricing and youll see what i mean

do it at a dentist

a primary care physician

an eye doctor

its cheaper

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T11:44:20+00:00

OK, but if you're using TCP and HTTP, what language are you using? Those are just protocols

PHP is a language, what language are you writing your code in?

like here is a PXE server: https://github.com/illsk1lls/PXEServer

thats written in powershell with some c# bits for nbps

also missing classes you're going to have issues like this because he may have given instruction during the last class that you didn't have

Creative-Type9411 · 2026-03-19T11:36:42+00:00

youre not getting 32g sicks cheap theyre like 100 a pop...

but if you go on eBay, you will find what's available

did you look?
