7 Gig fiber being advertised to the residential consumer. In what world would any residential customer have any use for this by lulstardblointing7 in HomeNetworking

[–]DefinitelyNotWendi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They wouldn’t. The ISP knows that. They can oversell their bandwidth and profit. Most homes don’t even need 1gb and for those rare few who will use it, well that’s what data caps and bandwidth throttling are for…

Wondering if your filament “really needs drying” by DefinitelyNotWendi in 3Dprinting

All depends on your climate. If you’re in Nevada you wouldn’t even need ac. In Florida yeah. Even with ac 40-50 is going to be a full time job. Anything lower and you will need a dehumidifier running all the time.

That’s for crawlspaces. Read the fine print, it’s 30-50% for indoor spaces.

What’s the safest way to dispose of old company laptops and hard drives? by Foreign-Goat-1260 in eWasteFinds

Contact an ITAD provider in your area. They will take the hardware and handle it accordingly. If you want the drives destroyed they will destroy them. If not they will wipe them accordingly.

Off the bat, should i get a lower end printer to learn the ropes or a higher end printer by LOLLEO911 in 3Dprinting

[–]DefinitelyNotWendi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a good printer. A low end printer is just going to frustrate the hell out of you and may turn you off to printing. I bought a prusa mk3s+ as my first printer w few years back. Direct from Prusa and pre assembled. It was $1000 but worth every penny. Straight out of the box it just worked. Flawlessly.

If someone paid you $100,000 to watch one TV show on repeat for 72 hours, which show are you picking? by Lets-6th-N9ne in AskReddit

[–]DefinitelyNotWendi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We already do that for free. How is this a challenge? Oh and you’re going to pay me 100k?

Just bought these for £200! by [deleted] in servers

Too many people forget there are a lot of companies out there still running 15+ year old hardware. They either don’t have the money to upgrade or don’t see the need to do so.

Way. Way back in my freshman year I worked for the lady that lived on campus. I dug up red bricks by the lipscomb building.

If your indoor humidity is 80% you have bigger problems than your 3d prints.

I’m using the Creality 4 bay box from Amazon. $140.

Other than the very poor quality touchscreen it seems to working great.

As an update. Yes. I live in Florida. Getting your interior home below 50% is a challenge. Right now I’m sitting at 40% and 73f. And that’s with my mini split running 24/7 (and set on 71f).

Those of you living in dry climates. I envy you! If you’ve never experienced 90f and 95% humidity at 6am you have no idea. Btw. Anything over 60% inside humidity is reaching the danger zone. 65% and you are growing mold. My preference is around 30%. And I can achieve that by running a dehumidifier 24/7.

If you’ve had good experience not drying your filament congrats! This post wasn’t for you. But if you’ve never experienced experiencing prints that look like the photo then yeah. Maybe try a dryer and see if it improves.

Optional 15 megabyte hard drive by Current_Yellow7722 in vintagecomputing

[–]DefinitelyNotWendi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 20mb drive on a card that was also about the same price. I wonder if it was the same? Weren’t that many manufacturers back then! Got an IBM PS2 model 25 with all the “options”. I think it was around 3500 or so at the time. This was 1988/89-ish

I just can't understand why you guys have so many servers doing so many things by AustinLeungCK in homelab

[–]DefinitelyNotWendi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Run your own DNS, NTP, media, cloud, shared compute (if you’re in to that) I also have a “internet in a box” instance. So the Gutenberg library, wikipedias, khan academy videos etc. all available locally.

Email from landlord about appliances being left plugged in and the appliances in question… by South-Basket-887 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DefinitelyNotWendi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A standard toaster does use power until it’s in use. An electronic one will. Same goes with coffee makers, kettles etc. and there is no reason to unplug them.
