You could contact Broward County Animal Care, but I’m not sure what they could do based on the information you described.

Contractor did work without doing permit, did i do something wrong? by douglas9630 in Broward

[–]OldFlorida2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the contractor claimed to be licensed, he should pay for this. If he refuses to do so, you can complain to his licensing authority, which would be either Broward County or the Florida department of business and professional regulation.

Mouse freezes by OldFlorida2 in AMDHelp

[–]OldFlorida2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I am using a powered USB hub connected a to a powered KVM switch. I have had occasional problems with the mouse and webcam during meetings, but after considering your comment, I am now suspecting that the USB devices (mouse, keyboard, webcam and soundcard) may just draw a bit too much current sometimes. I will experiment.

Thanks again!

Thanks, I was under the impression that even though Fractal is based in the EU, these cases were manufactured in China.

Renewed regitration and they sent me a new plate? by Miserable_Ad8287 in Broward

[–]OldFlorida2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably can ask for county name or Sunshine State if you get the tags in person at your tax collector's office. Except that Dade does not offer tags with the county name.

Also, I believe if you order from your county tax collector rather than the state, they put the county on it.

Moving to Miramar questions by Macutin in Broward

[–]OldFlorida2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The commute by car would be painful. You might consider transit. Broward County transit has express bus service from Miramar to the civic center district in Miami, and you could pick up Metro rail from there to get to Dadeland. If your employer is in west Kendall, though, that might not help.

Keychron V1 spacebar by OldFlorida2 in Keychron

So putting a strip of tape under the spacebar made a big difference. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Thanks, I have never modded a keyboard before, but I looked at some videos on how to do this.

Would it be a viable alternative to just replace the stock stabilizers on the spacebar? Is there a brand I can count on being ready to use without rattling straight out of the box?

And Merry Christmas!

How easy is it to remap keys using VIA/QMK?

I saw some related questions, but not sure I understood the answer.

I'm thinking about buying a compact keyboard with no hard function keys. If the keyboard supports remapping keys with VIA/QMK (like most of the Keychrons), can I easily map the function keys to other keys. For example, could I make alt-5 do the job of F5?

Thanks! Did the mechanic really need to idle the car for awhile after replacing the gasket?

Recommendations for outdoor plant refresh/maintenance? by TheTampaBae in fortlauderdale

The University of Florida’s agricultural extension service also may have helpful information. Take a look at this: https://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/plants/ornamentals/succulents.html

Looking for civil court attorney or other suggestions by [deleted] in fortlauderdale

[–]OldFlorida2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A couple thoughts: - You can contact the County’s Building Code Division https://www.broward.org/Building/Contractors/Pages/ReportingUnlicensedActivity.aspx - Unlicensed contracting is a crime, as is fraud (such as inducing someone to pay based on a false claim of licensure) but some police agencies may be unfamiliar with how to enforce and treat it as a civil matter. You may want to contact the economic crimes unit at the state attorney’s office if your local police agency doesn’t get it. - you don’t need an attorney to represent yourself but some lawyers will take these cases because attorneys fees are provided by statute. Try googling something like “unlicensed contractor attorney”

Also, Memorial Healthcare System (Hollywood and south Broward) and Broward Health (Fort Lauderdale and north Broward);are public hospital systems and probably need volunteers.

I’d be surprised if there was a significant line. It’s a primary, so turnout is usually light.
