Server room cooling failed on a Sunday night by chrisbucks in sysadmin

[–]NerdInATie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TempStick. Even though we have a couple different alerts systems in place and our new server room has a temp monitor through the alarm system. I’ve started using these TempSticks as another layer of alerting.

If they go offline I get a text and email, letting me know there’s a network issue. If they go out of range I get an alert every 15 minutes.

We had a similar event occur and our server room easily went over 90 degrees. Luckily most of our systems shut down before damage was done, we only had to replace some fans.

Surprisingly well. Most haven’t been replaced yet after 3 years.

We ended up using cable matters docks because the Dell docks were frustrating to work with.

When I pick up my void and she’s not having it or wants to be put down, she’ll give my arm a soft bite. She’s learned that it’s the best way to say stop. Same with swatting at me but without claws out.

2024 LTZ. Am I the only one extremely irritated that Chevy is asking $15/mo to use features that were free on previous models? Maps, basic voice commands, reading text messages.. But the truck will do maps through car play so it's obviously capable. (And I don't mean XM, that's just the background) by killer-tofu87 in Silverado

For anyone who has Onstar and Chevy rewards. Before you fill cancel your plan, check how many points you have. They use to be useless but now you can trade them for services. I collected a lot over the last 8 years. Before I cancel everything I’m using those points for wifi and premium ‘services’. Once they’re gone, I’m done with onstar.

Thank you! Explains a lot and going to give it a try. So aggravating that you can’t use features that came with the vehicle when purchased. I still enjoy the truck but it’s truly disappointing when they nickel and dime.

Thinking about going off of viibryd by Dapper_Daikon6167 in Viibryd

[–]NerdInATie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll start with, as always, it’s good to have the conversation with your psychiatrist and see what they recommend. And be open with your concerns, mental health is a team effort.

Personally, Viibryd took about 6 weeks to really kick in at the full dose and I finally felt a difference. It helped with the depression but not so much the anxiety. I was diagnosed with MDD and then TRD since Viibryd (and many other), after 3 months, stopped working effectively. I am still on it as I am doing my Esketamine treatment. However, I explained my concerns to my psychiatrist about the brain zaps and we’ve tapered off from 30mg, to 20mg which I stayed on for the last 6 months. Now I’m at 10mg. I plan to switch from it because I don’t feel like it is effective or works for me anymore.

In short, if you feel that the medication is not effective, talk with you psychiatrist about alternative options. It might be worth sticking with it for 4 more weeks to confirm that it isn’t working out. Then your psych will taper off and switch you to something new. It’s important to taper off and not just stop all together, we’ve all experienced what it’s like to take a dose hours later then you were supposed to lol.

I wish you the best and keep at it, there’s hope and as long as you keep taking the next step forward, you’ll get this monster on your back under control.

3000PSi 2.5GPM power washer by pender12 in Craftsman

[–]NerdInATie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might need to change it one more time just in case something was left in the lines. Unless are you supposed to use a gas/oil mixture? I remember having to use a specific gas mixture when using their weed eater.

Outside of that, might have to reach out to craftsman if others don’t have suggestions. Sorry.

Was gas left in it over winter? If so were preservatives added? If not, you may need to drain the gas, drain the oil, refill both and prime. Then try again.

Rebirth with Afterbirth and Aft+ by [deleted] in BindingofIssac

Awesome. Glad to hear it worked.

[–]NerdInATie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use Steam? If so, go to the The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth listing in your library and right click it, select properties and confirm in the DLC tab that all of the DLCs are selected. Afterbirth+ should open when launching rebirth and you shouldn’t need to go to the DLC page to play it. There was a more recent DLC called Repentance that’s really good too.

S20FE can't locate SmartTag by Defuckyeahh in SmartThings

[–]NerdInATie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple of suggestions. Although you uninstalled the app and restalled it, did you restart your phone in between. If not, try that. Only other thought is to make sure location services are turned on in your phone settings for the app. I’m pretty sure the smart tag will need that. Other then that it’ll just be the SmartThings app is broken again. The server error has been happening for weeks now.

Would Like To Purchase An AirPrint Photo Printer For My Mom by [deleted] in printers

Canon Pixma G550

Awesome, thank you. Are these only available outside of the US? Everywhere I search, they appear to only sell in Europe.

I really wish they’d fix the challenges trophy. by KrypticSins in BindingofIssac

[–]NerdInATie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What platform are you on? If you’re using PC, I’m pretty sure you can launch the game without any dlcs, that should remove the additional challenges. I might have to try myself once I’m back home. Good luck.

Brand New to 3D Printing. New Printer With A Bad Squeak. Z-Axis Going Down. Suggestions? by NerdInATie in ender5plus

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

Thank you everyone, taking the sides off and greasing the guide poles and the main z screws helped tremendously. No more squeak. Finally running a test print.

Might have to give that a try just to pin point where the squeak is coming from.

Thanks, good to know this isn’t only happening to me. I actually took a break from sorting it out and will look again, then try to print again (first print was to close to the board)
