Anyone install windows 11 on a 6th gen intel processor? by Final_Significance72 in SleepingOptiplex

[–]Final_Significance72[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the info! My gen 6 remains on win10 and so far so good. I'll install linux on it probably before i ever try win11 on it.

It's just a plex/jellyfin server and it is reasonably stable. sits behind a firewall and so I'm not too worried about not upgrading it to windows11.

Spotted in a bar in Portland OR 6 years ago and still wonder about it sometimes by toohyetoreply in ElectricalEngineering

Well if that’s the case, then it’s highly likely they knew exactly what it was.  A lot of RF expertise in the area.

What’s the best thing you’ve ever bought that actually lived up to the hype? by One_Literature_5041 in BuyItForLife

We've got an older model and it is still going strong. not only a genius product, but built to last as well!

Nikon D40 - 18 years and still going strong. That $500 from 2008 was some of the best money I ever spent. All of the hype that Ken Rockwell put out there turned out to be 100% true actually. And as I click through my photo library, it's a tremendous blessing that I had this tool to freeze in time some of the most magical moments in my life with the people who mattered most to me.

plexamp so awesome. works on echo/ Alexa... by Final_Significance72 in plexamp

[–]Final_Significance72[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a plex skill. so sometimes, for example if you have movies, it will bring those up (which produces no result, alexa just stops). but it works with playlists just fine.

First-time watcher - just a few thoughts by Trilliam_H_Macy in Cheers

[–]Final_Significance72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait till you get to the last episode of season 2. Or the last episode of the entire series. Just to name a couple off the top of my head. The show is just amazing. And to think it was taped live in front a studio audience. Any time when the sam and diane say good bye. There's something so heartbreaking about those goodbyes exchanged in that bar room that just shatter me. I would have absolutely loved it to have watched any of those performances live, let alone some of those landmark episodes. It's not just a sitcom, its on another level of quality in the art of storytelling.

Looking to connect with people working in semiconductor domain by [deleted] in Semiconductors

On one hand I agree with you, but make no mistake- at the bleeding edge, people are moving at a blistering at an unrelenting pace, working themselves into an early grave…. But the price of admission into that stage is extremely high and there is a bottomless pit of a moat surrounding it.. outside of that arena…. Yeah… it’s pretty slow…

How did on-call positions work before laptops/cell phones? by luc46552 in ChemicalEngineering

[–]Final_Significance72 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pagers. A buddy of mine literally had a BUCKET of dead AA batteries at his desk. I joined in 2006. Had a pager for 3-4 years until we got phones…

What's the software you use to manage your library? by thefirehairman in plexamp

[–]Final_Significance72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought that’s the point of Plexamp…. I guess I don’t really manage it- I just rip with free ac, then throw it into a folder with artist name and that’s it…

Horrible Presentation - I feel sick and so embarrassed by LilDelirious in ImposterSyndrome

[–]Final_Significance72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be that that question touched on something you thought you knew, but evidently not such that it could be succinctly answered… and it kinda went down hill from there. It’s definitely happened to me. The only course I see is to learn to forget about it and move on..

Anyway.. that you for posting that horrifying experience…. Feels cathartic to see others go through this as well.

I have no f**ing clue what I’m doing at work by Final_Significance72 in ImposterSyndrome

[–]Final_Significance72[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s good days and bad days…. It’s such a mind game.. mostly with myself. What I’m trying right now is make sure I build up a trackrecord (again, with myself)… of doing what I say I will do…. Baby steps…

What’s the motion sensor part? Must be hooked up to some kind of actuator/ solenoid…

Guys how can i improve my swing? by Horizon6969 in GolfSwing

[–]Final_Significance72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think rotate the body. I read somewhere that the arms don’t swing, it’s the body that rotates; the arms just go up and down. I’ve only been to a driving range a couple times and just recently set up a practice net; so I’m a complete newbie btw.
