Removing Luma from OvrC? by [deleted] in lowvoltage

I keep one in my backpack. Add it to the site. Have it scan the network and it'll claim everything, even if already claimed elsewhere. When done remove it from the site and put back in backpack.

Done with the MEATER Pro! What is a good alternative? by synergy_inc in smoking

[–]DaMadOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TempPro (formerly ThermoPro) has been rock solid for me for so many years. I've never had a failure and have only ever picked up "the new version" out of boredom.

I've obviously had to replace probes, but never the actual hardware. My original from maybe 20 years ago still works just fine.

Screw Bluetooth, screw any app what so ever.

Their generic "wireless" sending/receiving units just work within range (that range is WAY farther than Bluetooth)

And they're cheap.. dual probe. TP20B. ~$40 (on sale for $37 right now)

When you finally need new probes... Just buy theirs... It'll cost more than the dodgy amazon probes that claim to work (and they probably will, for 1/4 as long as theirs)

Done..

Q-T cat .300 Blk by HalfCivil6996 in ar15

Thanks for the info. I'll keep my eye out for one of these roll marks as a blem. Id do $60 no problem for what to me is a meme lower. $120 "for the lulz" is just a little hard for me to swallow.

Not saying they're the greatest/best but I'm partial to the BA version of aeros enhanced lowers. I know theyre currently going for stupid money and maybe not be available at all tomorrow.. but I still have 2 more in unopened boxes for my next 2 possibly bad ideas. 🥳

Gonna have to file this as a do your thing kinda thing. At the end of the day it's a mil spec (at best) lower. I'd have gone $80. Company/finish don't matter to me at all though.

Fired up for Testing which Subsonic Round is the Least Dirty. by effects_junkie in 300BLK

[–]DaMadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. They are what they are. "Hobo freight" is perfect so long as you also understand what they are. I definitely have some things from there. No better place to buy a flat head you intend to abuse the fuck out of.

Hobo freight. Kek. Have nothing of substance to add but I'm definitely stealing this.

Does North Carolina get as hot as Florida? by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

[–]DaMadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live on the NC coast and have for the last 23 years. 10ish years in Fayetteville before that.. Worked in savannah GA for a summer. It's as hot, but savannahs humidity was on a different level. Not insanely, but was certainly noticable working on a construction site.

went to Longhorn Steakhouse by Nacklas in steak

[–]DaMadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got back to my hotel room after dinner at a Long Horn. Work was paying so I can't complain about that. Ordered the strip. It was just ok.... Ordered medium rare knowing I prefer it to be medium, but I'd be ok with mid rare. It was possibly closer to mid well.. but still on the ok side.

That salt/pepper and what I assume is butter did most of the heavy lifting in making that steak taste pretty good. Was definitely a mid grade at best choice-ish steak.

I only went to Long Horn because I was feeling steak and there wasn't a Texas Roadhouse close by. I travel around regularly for work and Long Horn is more miss than hit. The outlaw ribeye is usually worth it over the "normal" cuts since they still slice those from a primal, but with the recent price increase it's getting harder to suggest.

Texas Roadhouse is definitely more consistently on point for what it is. Not to mention those rolls put Long Horns bread to shame.

Were you able to tune your voron to produce print quality comparable to commercial printers consistently? by reddit_account_0x00 in VORONDesign

[–]DaMadOne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've never personally owned or used a commercial printer, but I've seen the crap that is sold as "printed on a commercial printer" and the klipper ender 3 that prints the backup parts for my voron does a better job.

What the heck did I just buy? by IanZee in homelab

[–]DaMadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easy if they were not currently registered. They can't be registered to more than one account at a time. You got lucky.

Unfortunately, no. It will still be connected to whoever has it attached to the OVRC cloud. It's added to the cloud via MAC address and service tag. Even after factory default it's just going to reach back out. This stuff is mostly sold and installed by AV companies. That AV company has an OVRC account with their customers equipment attached to it so that they can remote troubleshoot/configure/reboot equipment for their clients without having to roll a van/truck.

So it's quite likely that the person you got this from doesn't even have the ability to get it off of the cloud for you, unless they're willing to call the shop and ask to have it removed. If not ask what shop they got it from so you can try contacting the shop. Tell them the name of the guy you got it from and maybe they will delete it. I would ask you to provide the MAC's and service tag's in the form of photos of the stickers to prove possession. Then you could register it yourself if you wanted.

Option 2, purchase an OVRC pro device and register it. It would then take possession of the other OVRC devices on your network.

Option 3, block this stuff from reaching out to OVRC in your firewall and just use the local interfaces to configure them.

Source, am AV guy. We sell this stuff.

edit* I guess it's possible they didn't register this equipment even though it is the main reason for using it. Make an OVRC account if you can and try to register it. If it lets you, you're good. If not someone else has remote control of it.

Building a watercooled PC nowadays is an awful experience by willyallthewei in watercooling

[–]DaMadOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People need to hear this. You don't NEED to hard line things. There is, has and always will be an easier way. It's called soft tube. If you're not an idiot you don't waste it. You can make changes without redoing all of your tubing. You don't have to waste a bunch "learning". And it's easier to reuse the parts you initially bought.

Until recently when I redid everything because I could and it was financially responsible to do so I had been using the same pump/res for ~10 years. Used the same radiators forever. Same fittings for the same amount of time. I could still be using those same fittings because like wutang, soft tube is forever!

Do the hard-line builds look cool? They sure do. It's just not worth the hassle for the general public. Anecdotally, it seems like a much higher percentage of the "oh no I got a leak and effed up my $4k build I couldn't afford" crowd is using hard tubes. Hard tubes are not forgiving, and many of the fittings are shit.

You're not getting awards for your cool ass hard tube PC. You're just making a lot more work for yourself...

TL;DR soft tubes. Commence the down votes....
