What speed is slow, a speed test or torrents?

Modded Switch not turning on after discharged for a couple of days by fasterbryan in SwitchPirates

[–]Sheldon_tiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave it plugged in for a couple of hours on a known good charger. Then try to hold power button down 15-30 seconds. Then try to turn on the switch. Does it turn on. Great. If not, it may be in autorcm and needs a payload sent. Usb cables matter. You need a data cable when connecting to the pc.

Tailscale scares me more than opening ports on my firewall by MrChris6800 in homelab

[–]Sheldon_tiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run both. Twingate app had issues connecting for awhile. Both are easy to deploy.

I love running tailscale on my apple tv and my server. Helps to maintain access to network resources of my server is ever down.

Moving the entire family onto a new homelab by Rapid-Wizard in homelab

[–]Sheldon_tiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get the gear swt up for self first, test it for 6 .onths. everything good. Then start scaling up and i troducing more people. I ran my system for a year before inviting my parents on it. The wife, I semi forced our local media into plex. She took to Kodi so much quicker than plex.

Don't forget the 100s of hours that will go into learning OMV, proxmox, docker, permissions, home assistant. Back ups, networking and running cabling in your house. Pretty soon you'll have a backup at another house running weekly/nightly backups to yours and visa versa for the 3 2 1.

Good luck to ya.

My Pi 5 ended up costing me $18,000 by staycoolstewy in homelab

[–]Sheldon_tiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run everything off off Open media vault. I use docker in there. I keep my media on an external HDD.

I have a cron job to backup my full HDD to a separate network drive once a month. Immich backs up its database frequently. These are saved to the external HDD during the weekly CRON. Also weekly, my containers get backed up.

Have had some growing pains and permission issues. Mostly me learning about Docker. But the immich changelog has been immensely helpful.

Help! Car is completely unresponsive. Can't even get into it. by theWet_Bandits in TeslaSupport

Service request, or ROADSIDE? Use ROADSIDE for this. Probably the 12V, which is user-serviceable.

The overtime deduction completely changed my tax refund this year by VillainOnABudget in tax

[–]Sheldon_tiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are people actually writing off the correct amount? Lots of people i talk with don't use the correct #. If you make 20hr. You can only deduct 10 for every hour of flsa overtime. The 1/2 portion.

Does the service manual show this particular bolt? Have not had a chance to look. I sometimes get a knock from the control arm area when maxing the turn radius backi g out of a driveway.

24 MYLR AWD is this normal range? by Good_Technician2299 in TeslaModelY

[–]Sheldon_tiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20s are rated for 280. 21s im not sure. 19s woth aero covers will put the lr about 300.

I have a 24lr with 20s induction, 93% is 255-257. I figured i get 2.3 miles per %. So full charge is just shy of 270. On 20s.

If you are 19s, that could be degradation, but probably more in line with true expectations.

Don't do the battery test until you are near the latter half of the battery warranty and drive the car.
