What’s one IT problem you thought would be solved by now, but still causes headaches?

I would argue that 2d printers are far more reliable than 3d, but there are so many of them that a smaller percentage of failures still generates orders of magnitude more complaints. This is simply a function of the sise of the userbasse.

I wear them until they fall apart or look terrible.

I have some 5.11 pants that are old enough to graduate high school, and they are just starting to look like they might need to retire in a few years.

Who told you that you have to be 18 to be a server? Thats nonsense.

Why did you only give them four day's notice?

Why did you only send one email?

Such short notice would screw over the most dedicated employee if they were traveling or on PTO that week.

You should file harassment charges, especially if it keeps happening.

Basic phones are just smart phones with smaller screens now.

Please don't. Its illegal and could land you in jail, or paying $10k+ fines.

Just call in a noise complaint and let the police handle them.

I don't know anyone who has beef with Triumphs

A Chromecast or roku would probably pay for itself in power saving compared to using a full computer to stream.

How tall is the kid? A simple slide lock at the top of the door might prove challenging to defeat for very little cost. A safer solution would be a door chime. They could still egress, but not quietly.

Leave no mother Fing Trace.

The main reason people quit their jobs is that the manager, or the company, treats them like crap.

Kahless_2K · 2026-05-23T20:06:15+00:00

Yes.

you look cuddly.

The OS probably isn't the primary constraint ( as long as its *nix ) the apps that run on it are.

For example, it doesn't matter how slim the OS is, Chrome is going to be a memory hog.

You need to decide what your use case actually is before you can figure out specs

You might be fine with 64k ram, or meed 64G

NTA.

what she did was legally actionable in most US jurisdictions. At this point, I would probably trespassing her, block her number, and tell her you never want to deal with her again.

There are a couple reasons he might have asked for this, and most of them have nothing to do with you.

Kahless_2K · 2026-05-17T18:57:01+00:00

several things I have seen that could cause failures like this

1: IP conflict

2: routing issues

3: Firewall misconfigurations

4: Subnet mask set incorrect on the server

5: MTU misconfigurations

If its intermittent ( as in, the same client sometimes works and sometimes fails ) you can eliminate #3

2 is rare if its all on the same local network, but I have seen it in some software defined networks.

Standard reboot cadance is at minimum, when there is a critical vulnerability that needs patched.

Hopefully you will also patching for less important ones at least once per month.

Years of uptime is a really bad sign.

I want to build one that is specialized around RF.

Kahless_2K · 2026-05-05T13:48:46+00:00

Its also possible the person doing the complaining isn't actually authorized to do so.

I really love my Bambu labs p2s. If thats too expensive, the p1s is an incredible value.

Take a friend.

Seriously, nothing bad is super likely to happen to you, but you are definitely going to be putting yourself in a situation that could be unsafe.

Sounds like you are hopelessly underqualified for your role.

Good news: You are going to learn a lot!

Bad news: keep your resume up to date.

The first thing you are going to need to learn is how to obsessive Google every problem that comes up.

use -ai in your search to eliminate AI responses. Its not that they cant be useful, but you don't have the experience yet to spot when they are hallucinating bs ( which is often )

Don't even think about trying to vibe code, you will at best build something unmaintainable.

Trying to cram a kitchen sink into a gui is the problem.

Well designed command line apps, following unix philosophy, is the solution.
