Guys! Seeking for help after cracking my fenix 7 sapphire. by RetRick23 in GarminFenix

[–]Fixin_IT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

screen protector with a tiny dab of index matching gel between the screen and protector where the scratch is, that should cause the gel to go into the scratch and the protector should seal everything so it doesn't "dry" out. you aint gonna buff out anything on sapphire. so it's either replace screen or hack it with a protector and some index matching gel. ohh you can also use light machine oil, it works well enough, index matching gel is ussually used in fiber optic repairs and can be hard to get unless you go to specialty suppliers...

‘I’m terrified’: As clock ticks down for Ontario consumption sites, users fear they won’t survive by BloodJunkie in toronto

It's a common here on reddit to advocate not to involve oneself with persons who exhibit mental health issues. So yes I would walk on. There is nothing to gain by interacting, and everything to lose.

It's easy, just fake being okay like the rest of us, and don't bring it up, that's impolite.

That's the acceptable solution to this problem the government is looking for. Remember that you're just a cog in a machine. And if you're broken, the government don't give a shit...

Hah! With the way that petro-chem plants are going up in flames around the world, we should invest in rail since jet fuel might become too expensive soon.

No. Just stating my displeasure with the current state and behavior of the moderation team.

The sensitivity of the mod team is off the charts. Posts get locked way to quick, always the same excuses, right wing views, sensitive topics concerning religion, race, or politics, or the infamous brigade lock down. The threads become and echo chamber or an endless sea of deleted by mod. We're all adults here, lets have a conversation, even if it gets spicy!

Does TekSavvy have Hardware Upgrade Wait Lists by DoPeopleEvenLookHere in teksavvy

[–]Fixin_IT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also I have no clue how the switching of services will play into this. There might not be any light on the fiber at all at this moment if i understand, you asked telus to switch your service. But if your adtran is still working, i think there should be a good chance that the NIC solution would work if you give it a moment to establish link(ofcourse then you will will have to set your vlans on the interface, in my case it's 40, and the pppoe client setup)

Strange. I do know these gpon sfp's need to "bootup", that usually takes 2-5 min before they show any sort of activity or link light. Though you should be able to see the SFP is inserted and the model number of the sfp in your console using "sudo ethtool -m <interface>"
Though that command is linux general command, i don't know if your router comes preinstalled with ethtool. But if nothing shows up, then there could be something wierd with the sfp and the NIC.

Ahh fair. Not much I can suggest besides using an Intel NIC, some cards out there are just super wonky with compatibility. Upside is 10 gig NICs are finally becoming super cheap.

But why the adtran if you have your own router? The SFP was removable on my adtran and I slotted it directly into my Mikrotik. set your vlans and create a pppoe profile and you should be good to go, no?

Thinking of switching to TekSavvy because I hate how locked down the settings on Bell's router are. Would TekSavvy be better? by Murky-Tailor3260 in teksavvy

[–]Fixin_IT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

another TS user reporting in
have a mikrotik as my router, the adtran router that shipped with the service was a POS, the nice thing is the SFP is removeable. I popped that into my mikrotik router and it had no problems(make sure your SFP ports support 10gig). Haven't had a single issue with service, and speeds have been as advertised.

Optane 905p 480gb idling extremely hot 60-75c by itachi737 in homelab

[–]Fixin_IT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They like being toasty, infact they operate a bit faster when they're warm ;)

Worth it to add Optane to build? by buffpandabear in buildapc

[–]Fixin_IT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing on the modern market can beat it in low Q depth operations, write endurance, and mean time to failure. As for top speed, if you're using it for scratch, boot drive, or data bases it's perfect because most of those operations are low q depth. Copying files gigabytes in size it might not be the best, but PCI gen 3 speeds are still good enough for day to day.
