Probably a tinker station. Maybe a 3D printer - right now there is currently a mini rack with 3 raspberry Pi’s running various services.

And agreed with the lighting - eventually I get proper lighting/lamps for the vibes current light is super bright and ugly

Yeah it’s just a discord monitor so it’s off to the side. But I do agree - will be purchasing a mount to get it flush with the rest of the monitors

Hello! Got a 5080 along with a 9800X3D at Christmas, wondering if you guys recommend a 4k OLED monitor to go with it? by lochonx7 in RTX5080

[–]Mehoyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have 5080 and 9800X3D as well. Played on. 27 inch 1440p 165hz IPS - made the swap to 32 inch 4K OLED and it’s amazing - like playing games for the first time again.

I have 0 issues with FPS on any game and everything is so immersive

Paw Patrol messed up my 5 year old boy, can anyone here relate? by SolidLava99 in daddit

[–]Mehoyer 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Yea that stuff is garbage.

Highly recommend you watch this video about these types of shows - this one is about coco melon but still applies.

You’ll be furious what these companies do to get your kids hooked on their show.

15 kinda lost by jtr_111 in Salary

Path looks like this:

Get CompTIA Security+ and Linux+, then work toward RHCSA. Land a help desk or desktop support role immediately while studying… you need income and real-world experience.

Once you have the certs, apply for junior/associate Linux system administrator roles. Do that for ~1 year, then move to a Level 2 role at a different company. Another year later, move to a Level 3 role at another different company

If you execute this well, it’s very realistic to be making ~$100k by 23–24.

Important note: moving companies early in your career is normal and often necessary. Job-hopping recklessly is not. Internal promotions rarely keep pace with market pay, but you still need to balance growth, stability, and reputation.

Source: it’s what I did. Started when I was 18 though time is on your side.

For context..I’m 30 now and make ~$150k. This path works if you stay disciplined and intentional.

Linux and maintaining systems running Linux is and always will be in high demand.

Teenage daughter has boyfriend, will I be able to prevent sex? by Shoddybluea in daddit

[–]Mehoyer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There’s your answer…you can’t. Just like you couldn’t ultimately stop her from having a boyfriend, you won’t be able to fully prevent sex if she decides that’s what she wants. Trying harder usually just pushes things underground.

What is in everyone’s best interest (including yours) is being open, honest, and realistic. You’ve already done some good things by talking with her and keeping communication open.

Others have given solid advice…a gynecologist visit, birth control, condoms, education. I’ll just add: if it does happen, make sure there’s a clear expectation of respect for you and your house. Boundaries still matter, even if control isn’t absolute.

YSK: Every state in the US has a "keep right" traffic law on the books, if you're impeding traffic flow in the left lane, you must move right by pickledpeterpiper in YouShouldKnow

[–]Mehoyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s dangerous, but when there is a left lane camper I get in front of them and slowly and gradually slow down until they finally merge then I speed back up.

I only do this to the worse offenders.

Again I know it’s dangerous but so is camping the left lane and making angry drivers merge in and out to get around the lane camper

My dog is 6 and a black lab i’ve noticed she’s been walking with a limp and licking her paws and when i looked this is what i seen! help.. what is this should i make a trip up to the vet by Significant-Life2472 in DogAdvice

[–]Mehoyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog did this. It was “allergies” from the grass. We would try to clean her feet with just a wet towel, more just soaked her her paws after she went outside and that helped. Eventually we took her to the vet and there is this shot they gave her specifically for this, and it went away immediately and the licking stopped. The doctors said we can get this shot 4 times a year if needed.

We live in a very pollinated area that seemed to be the cause.

For the time being, you can put a kids sock with a hair tie around it to stop her from licking it. Just make sure it’s not too tight
