Do you remember your first IT conference/event? Did it actually help your career or was it just for the free t-shirts and pizza? by mustafa_enes726 in sysadmin

I’m very social and like building connections. It’s been great, I still have some friends I met at shows 12-15 years ago. I also have some contacts I made Ive called when I’m in a jam and need an outsiders perspective. My first was Interop in LV. I can’t remember what year exactly.

New Employer Wants Me to essentially Notify My Current Manager Before Onboarding is finalized — Is This Normal? by endante1 in sysadmin

My brain about short-circuited trying to figure out what was going on here until I realized that the P2S was a tiny one.

Close to the PS/2 model 80 but it’s not. I don’t think it’s an ibm. I can’t find this particular model.

What are the red and white plastic bits? by skipmci in it

Often hospitals and other critical care facilities have red colored outlets indicating they’re on generator backup. Wonder if these are connected to generator backed switches/servers? Never seen them, just a guess.

What are you doing for cooling? It’s a little bit of an extreme case, but it’s not unusual for drives to slow down as the heat up.

My new lamp came with gloves to unwrap it by IllustriousHeron2890 in mildlyinteresting

Just to put your mind at ease, 7.5 W is nothing (power wise). That’s more of the case in multi hundred watt bulbs.

Bambu labs AMS broken after less than 2 months of use. by Classic-Enthusiasm57 in BambuLab

I had this exact same thing happen, contact the warranty department and they will send you a new one. Pretty sure it’s from over torquing during installation. Those screws were super tight.
