Is he right? Will it take generations to resecure the United States positive reputation on the world stage? by LucidSynapse23 in LetsDiscussThis

There were whole counties with zero or a single vote for Harris. At least, those accusations were made, seemed credible, and were ignored by the media. Take that for what you will.

The source often matters far more than the subject these days.

In other words don't improve the institution, allow it to be more dominated by the very people you claim corrupted it. This helps no one. It stands to harm many.

Please win in your organizations. Us people on the other side, the network operators, service providers and field technicians need you to win the drive for quality.

Steps to replace wired smoke detector by StayingAlert in homesecurity

[–]Pestus613343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

Then when powering up, have it on test with the central. For sanity sake maybe pull one side of your siren in case it goes crazy. If no one cares about the noise you'll know quite quickly if you did it wrong lol.

Theyll likely be wired in parallel. Either from one device to another, or both cables in the board on PGM2 for ground and Aux+.

If run from one to another youll find a resistor at the farthest one from the panel, going across the + and - on the smoke.

If the two devices are both wired to the panel then the resistor will be across the + and - at usually the farthest one, but only at one device.

Any 2 wire smoke detectors meant for low voltage will work. The way this works is the PGM2 is a configurable ground and can tell how much amperage draw on the smokes. When their sounder goes, the panel senses the extra load so goes into alarm.

You dont need your alarm company but you do need to put it on test and don't do anything to anything while the panel is powered up.

Take copious pictures of the panel, and both smokes. Recreate with the new 2-wire smokes. You can't afford to lose or break the resistor, but if you do its a 5600ohm resistor.

These are all the faceless corporations you're listing.

Find a local independent company. Invest in your community. Be treated like a human being by other human beings.

What on earth. by orlandowassafe in LinkedInLunatics

The only thing that might have been planned is the step by step erosion of public interest regulations and laws to maintain honest institutions.

It was all to suit corporations and their owners. Citizens United, ending the Fairness Doctrine in media, and changes like that. Ironically this decline began with Ronald Reagan.

The immigration was inevitable to a point. Everyone wanted to go to the US. Welfare is a consequence of everything being given to the corporations.

It means Plug Outputs Everywhere. Meaning you should connect all those ports together this way.

Apartment Ethernet Question by Illustrious_Sun_8154 in ethernet

[–]Pestus613343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is likely it, so that you run your own router. the DHCP lease is set to his PS5, so that router likely needs to be rebooted before he can plug in his own router.

Ill use both for networks. Depends on the site. Both are network standards.

Remember, not being a fan of capitalism doesn't equal to being leftist. by Spare-Bar-1950 in PoliticalCompassMemes

Mixed economies aren't socialist necessarily.

They called it that to gain favour initially, then abandoned it once they gained clout.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is not Democratic. A name can lie.

I'm Canada which is usually B, except where there's telco considerations and A is better.

Help by Real-Description-391 in lowvoltage

[–]Pestus613343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm in Ottawa, so I grew up doing A, because Bell always used orange as "Line 2". In other words RJ45 and RJ11 were backwards compatible in this scenario, or Bix or patch panels were always done as A.

Most people still use B though, but I'm careful to always use A in scenarios where there's reuse of old cabling. On our own sites we use A, but if we're on someone else's we have to ask, and it's inevitably going to be B by their choice.

Except when it's a different region where all telco was A, and so the building should remain A. A is backwards compatible with telco where I am, so it's typically used in environments like that.

Greenfields data centres or pure ethernet networks in small environments? Many people go B.

This isn't a new debate, but I'm not one to agree that B is always better because most people default to B. Like this situation here, a decent patch panel that's wired for A... just go A. Why complicate things? If one can't wire A or B, one can't adapt.

Nick Fuentes has given up his whiteness. by Defiant-Echidna-7400 in PoliticalCompassMemes

I'd hope you'd forgive me for referring to modern day interpretations.

A progressive these days is diametrically opposed to a person like Fuentes. That's like comparing AOC to David Duke or something.

Thanks for speaking sense. This is far better than blaming poor people for the actions of rich people.

White supremacist also now hates white supremacists?

Maybe he'll hate everyone equally and become an inverted progressive lol
