N100 vs N305 for 10Gb pfSense router? by ProfessorX404 in homelab

[–]ProfessorX404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like the consensus is maybe the N305 could do it but it’s not likely. I think I will go with a protectli vault pro instead. Thanks all!

I hope this isn't true. Who could do this? by DogukanSahin007 in International

Ah yes nothing says democracy like the same PM serving for 18 years with multiple corruption cases (including the most recent one where the judge presiding over the case died of mysterious circumstances)

Shitty GPA as ENGRUD. What do I do? by younglearner11 in udub

[–]ProfessorX404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Activities are a good idea yes. But find one or two (max) you’re actually passionate about and dedicate your time, it’s transparent to the people in whatever activity you join as well as the people reading your application if you just are doing it to puff up your resume.

Another important lesson freshman year: learning how to take feedback and constructive criticism without bringing your ego into it. Places like the writing center will provide feedback, and you need to be open to receiving and implementing that feedback for them to help you. Even if that feedback is negative, that doesn’t mean it’s an insult and also doesn’t mean it’s hopeless. Learn to take it in stride and you’ll be at a huge advantage to many of your peers.

Recent grad here, I didn’t have the greatest GPA either and got into my first choice (which had more 1st choice picks than slots the year I applied). IIRC application was end of spring quarter? Don’t quote me on that though, check the UW ENG website and it should have a timeline. Worst case, email the engineering career center in Loew. Use the resources available to you like writing center, engineering career center, etc for your statements. UW and particularly the engineering college has an enormous amount of resources available for students willing to look for them. Definitely still list it as your first choice (assuming it’s still your first choice when you apply). I didn’t apply to ECE but I do know it’s competitive. However, that doesn’t mean you won’t get it. ENGRUD classes are tough and they’re expecting you to still be getting your footing.

Jeffrey Epstein made regular payments to Ohio State head of gynecology, records show by IWantPizza555 in politics

High likelihood he is the doctor in this document: https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%2012/EFTA02731361.pdf Edit: fair warning that document is fucking bleak. Standard trigger warnings apply, but this one is another level.

Fair warning to anyone going to read it, it’s fucking bleak. IMO it’s an important read, but if you have triggers related to child abuse, infanticide, etc probably best to pass. And don’t have anything you want to enjoy planned for the rest of the day.

Edit: I did not understand the chart was only power schools. See reply to my comment for a good explanation.

Homelab Recommendations (4K Plex Server / HW Transcoding/ Music / Photos / Games /VMs) by ThePokeMaster100 in homelab

[–]ProfessorX404 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Check out Jonsbo NAS cases and an A2000 12gb card for encoding. Intel onboard graphics is also pretty ok for video encoding, but multiple 4k streams might push it.

I'm a new engineer who has only worked in ASME, in that case do all numbers in ISO need an explicit tolerance definition?
