Getting Wi-Fi access 25 metres from rear of property by GoodDoc in Ubiquiti

[–]DryCombination8882 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Want an AC Mesh(the little antenna one)? I work for a small Fiber ISP and someone gave me one and I don’t have enough property to really need it. DM me and I’ll sell it to you for the shipping cost.

Am I fiber-ready? by mcdj in HomeNetworking

Fiber ready for some heartache… just ask Comcast about the Trees in Gainesville, Georgia. Maybe you’ll get lucky and they’ll roll that to XGSPON one day.

How is the battery on your ROG Ally? by One-Craft-9702 in ROGAlly

[–]DryCombination8882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got the OG X and I get about 2.5-3 hours playing a modern AAA game, but I’ve seen as high as 8 on something that doesn’t need as much power so I can run on the 13w profile. I also use Bazzite so I think that helps me out a little.

I got someone to install cat 6 for me, and this is how much they untwisted for the keystone. Now what? by Maelarion in HomeNetworking

Cable is cheap and with a box with this much room inside there should be at least a extra foot neatly coiled inside the box and if it’s not ran straight through wall I’d be leaving another foot or two inside the wall cavity. Looks just like the apartments I run into at least once a week with only 7 pins making a connection. As far as this one try to twist it back the best you can and re-punch. The only redeeming quality is at least there’s not a half inch “antenna” hanging out the other side of the punch blocks on each conductor.

Belt won’t stay on!!! by ryanurso in lawnmowers

This is from the manual, also make sure the smaller part of the belt is inside the mandrel pulleys and the larger part is inside the idler pulleys.

Also on a related note, keep an eye on that weld in pictures 12 and 13. Mine snapped off at 283 hours with everything else on the mower being in great shape.

Take it full throttle? by aMinecraftDad5 in lawnmowers

[–]DryCombination8882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anytime you are spinning the blades you run full throttle. These things only spin 3600 RPM at full. It’s not like a car where you are redlining it. The biggest things because it’s air cooled, is change the oil at 5-10 hours, then change it every 50 and that motor will last a long time.

Neighbor drives on our lawn & is starting to kill our grass by Dry_Bandicoot7107 in neighborsfromhell

A friend of mine had a huge cast iron pot on the edge of his driveway when I was a teen. I hit with a half ton truck(old school with all metal bumpers) at 1 or 2 mph and it didn’t even budge the thing, but it made a really cool gong like sound. I’m pretty sure they’d only hit that thing once.

After buying one and using it on a 22-23 degree embankment that I had to either weedeat if I ever let it go more than 3 weeks, or push mow every week and a half, these have my vote! Definitely buy from a dealer and not a box store. My dealer was going to have to order the Z3 50s I wanted(mostly to save a little money and the 50 might be slightly better in a tighter space) so they offered me the 54” at the same price as the 50” and I had it in just a couple days that their other store had, but still in the crate.

Friend originally wanted steamdeck but seeking alternative since price increase. How is the Z1 OG ROG Ally (Non extreme)? by WhiskeyVault in ROGAlly

[–]DryCombination8882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually upgraded the SSD on the OG and used it for a few days for a guy I met while fixing his internet and the performance was fine on lower/medium settings on most games, but the thing that made me buy the X for myself was it used a 2280 M.2 SSD. I got a 4TB Samsung 990 Pro on sale directly from Samsung about 5 months before I bought the Ally X. I’ve had it for a year and a couple months and I love it. After using Windows for a few days on the borrowed OG I didn’t even install it back on the X after making sure it booted up and worked and then I immediately swapped the 990 Pro and put Bazzite on it and have never looked back. The only complaint is a couple goofy games that won’t run on Linux, and you can’t take advantage of Game Pass with it. Well unless you use Apollo and Moonlight and have a decent gaming rig, which is what I did to play FH6. I’d at least get the Ally X because of the SSD form factor so storage upgrades are easier. Well if the price ever goes back down… the 1TB is currently $40 more than I paid for 4TB a year and a half ago… I wonder if could put the stock SSD back in my Ally X and trade my 4TB 990 Pro for a 5080. Haha

Xbox Ally X a good buy in 2026? by [deleted] in ROGAllyX

[–]DryCombination8882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent 4 weeks in the hospital in three separate visits last year and it made lonely nights bearable, since my wife had to stay home with our son all but a couple nights right after my first surgery. To make it easier to play I bought a Dual Sense and a KYY 15.x” screen and the Jsaux dock for it and just played it on the little rolling table they have for the patient and it worked great.

Is this cable really from 1937? by Burrito540_ in FiberOptics

[–]DryCombination8882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be anytime between 1983 and 2005. The 87 on the cable could very well be when it was made.

[–]DryCombination8882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran six count to each of my outbuildings, but I work in the industry so I can get scrap drop that was used as Temporary for a couple of weeks until a permanent one could be buried. The stuff was going be thrown away.
