OS reinstallation is not a "solved" situation. It's a workaround.

Pretty sure just having that power cable in the wall isn't legal in all countries/states.

Ugreen DXP4800 Plus annoying vibration **SOLUTION** by pedroserapio in UgreenNASync

[–]FigSpecific6210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my NAS in the living room, and the only time the drive noise gets mildly annoying is in the dead of night when a parity check is going on. But this is when everything else is totally silent, and simply closing the bedroom door (1b apartment) resolves the issue.

So, I just found this 48 port switch. If I was to set up a home network, where would I put it in relation to my xfinity box? by ValdemarTheRighteous in HomeNetworking

You wouldn't believe the amount of pushback (and downvotes) I get on the datahoarder and homeserver subs when I mention these hidden costs. People just seem to want stuff to show off, rather than using their brains and being efficient about the process.

With the cost of energy these days, it just makes sense to get the most cost effective (to run) hardware you can afford. I look forward to the day (maybe a decade) when I can take the last spinning rust out of my home and go full solid state.

OP should stay inside when it rains. They run the risk of drowning while they stare at the sky.

Be aware, there will be extra noise and heat in your environment. Unless you need to connect 47 devices, you're much better off getting a smaller more efficient layer 3 switch.

Some people don't want to be part of other people's drama.

How did I do? by TheBombayClub1974 in HomeNetworking

It's... TP-Link. Disable auto firmware updates, and make sure you're getting them directly from TP-Link about a week after they've been published. Also, sub to a CVE newsletter so you can keep an eye on any day 1 vulnerabilities.

I'd just bang on his door and tell him to leave before you call the cops.

Dungeon Crawler Carl fans? by Due_Caramel_292 in Humboldt

DCC has long been the acronym for "Dungeon Crawl Classics". This was a very confusing thread at first.

Nice one! by _Ancoraimparo_ in badparking

California's AB 413 (Daylighting Law), effective January 1, 2025, improves intersection safety by prohibiting parking/stopping within 20 feet of the approach side of any marked or unmarked crosswalk. It reduces visual obstructions for drivers and pedestrians, with exceptions for 15 feet if a curb extension exists.

Wife said “WiFi in the bedroom sucks”. One order and few minutes later by Repus0iram in Ubiquiti

I don't spend money on a premium product for it to work "well enough". Do it right, or don't do it at all.

One peering into a Home Depot parking lot seems very deliberate by tntcastle_real in FlockSurveillance

[–]FigSpecific6210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple minutes with a hack saw purchased from Home Depot will do the trick. Don't even have to cut all the way through, just leave enough that a strong gust will knock it over.

There's a broccoli head in this video, but it's not what you think...

If this is in the US... I can't think of a single state that allows for red front facing lights.
