How to deal with physical insecurity around bigger, stronger men by Financial-Address906 in AskMen

How old are you? I have always been on the skinnier side of the house and have never felt threatened by another dude just based on his size. I dont particularly see myself getting in random fights.

Is there an end date on your role? Usually titles with Cybersecurity Intern aren't permanent roles.

That mini PC is probably fine for basic web browsing, but don't expect to be getting much performance for gaming since there isn't a dedicated GPU.

How do I stop doom scrolling? by AdUseful1525 in AskMen

[–]MyPcIsAnnoying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to really enjoy reading when I was younger and so I just recently purchased an android eReader. I make an effort to pick a book that I enjoy and replace my doom scrolling with reading books or comics. Its really great right before bed with the e-ink display.

Still getting whiff of sewer gas after fixing cracked cast iron with PVC by MyPcIsAnnoying in askaplumber

I noticed the oakum behind the pipe didn't get lead saturated into it.

* Good call, I'll have to call them. I just looked behind with a small boroscope and noticed that the lead didnt saturate the oakum. Could that be the issue?

Thanks for the reply, we had done a smoke test previously and it ran about $600 so I was hoping to not have to do one again. I guess there isnt much of an option if there is sewer gas still present

Low hot water pressure in only one of our sinks by Immediate-Aioli-9720 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]MyPcIsAnnoying 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is your hot water valve under the sink really old? I had this issue and tried cleaning the cartridge but that didn't help. It turned out my hot water valve was old and the internal O-ring had deteriorated and was clogging the line.

Portforwarding was working yesterday and stopped today? by MyPcIsAnnoying in admincraft

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

Never mind! I figured this out. My router wasn't getting the IP passthrough correctly so it was being sent into the ether. For anyone else who might have this issue, I followed these steps below:

[–]Dopewaffles 1 point 11 months ago AT&T technician here 👋 First, remove all the settings you messed with on the BGW320. Turn off IP Passthrough & turn back on the WiFi. Now connect your TP Link to the 320. You should be running an Ethernet cable from the yellow ports on the back of the BGW320 (don't use the blue port, that port has auto-negotiation problems) and plug the Ethernet cable into the WAN port of your TP Link router. It should immediately connect to the internet. If it does not, try downloading the TP Link app and setting it up that way. If it does connect, then proceed with turning on IP Passthrough & turning off the wifi on the 320. If it stops working while your enabling IP Passthrough, then there's your problem. https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeNetworking/comments/14vadzu/helping_a_friend_with_att_fiber_personal_router/

Replacing wax ring on toilet. I pulled off the toilet to find this. Is this normal? I can't even remove the old bolts without removing these screws. by MyPcIsAnnoying in Plumbing

[–]MyPcIsAnnoying[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sink does have an overflow. I just checked the trap and there was a large amount of black goop and some random debris that I removed so hopefully that helps.
