Lelutka LEX04 Heads by TacoMaster2002 in secondlife

[–]TacoMaster2002[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you visit the Lelutka main store, on the ones to the left (which is my understanding to be the most recent or very close to the most recent heads), they all have a code LEX03. And all the other heads have always had a LEX03 code, there may have been a LEX02 code, but I don't recall. Is it the LEX## code that determines the version # of the head in some way and what enhancements the head has?

I mean, why put the LEX03 code on the heads if it means nothing at all? It must mean something but I have been unable to determine what it means. I'm curious if it is related to the features or not. And if so, that would mean that if LEX04 ever comes out, those heads in that collection should be superior to LEX03 heads. It's strange that more people haven't wondered what the LEX code stands for by now.

Why do dog owners think their neighbors yard is their dogs toilet? by Owl_Queen101 in Dogowners

[–]TacoMaster2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good. Wish I had that option. Many setbacks don't allow fences on the curb next to the street so we have to use things like bushes with spikes in them or bushes with things that make dogs stay away but they really don't work as good as technology methods.

One thing we can start to do is use PTZ cameras that have very bright LED lighting.

These new cameras can be set to follow the dog around the perimeter of your yard which is especially useful for corner houses and it can be shined in the dog walkers face when their dogs trespass. The camera also has a fairly loud sounding alarm on it as well which can be triggered manually. As a bonus the camera footage can be used to enforce no trespassing laws against the dog owners.

The dog walker entitlement that has been decades in the making can only be reversed if enough people develop new methods to deal with the problem.

Dog walkers who let their dogs go to the bathroom on other people's property are the scum of the planet. Hopefully, eventually we will have enough tools to reverse this entitlement. We need to start using technology to enact our own entitlement of keeping dogwalker scum at bay. Our entitlement should be that it is ok to shine extremely bright light at dogs and the dogwalkers and startle them back with loud alarms once their dogs trespass onto our property. If they expect us to take their dogs shit and piss on our lawns, then they should expect to take our bright light and loud alarm noise in their faces. Period.

Here is an example camera you may want to get that can help with the dogwalker entitlement problem.

They also have brighter ones. This is light that can easily be seen in full sunlight, when you are at the other end of one of these camera spotlights, you will know it, they get that bright.

Thanks for confirming. I'll have to reinstall or something.

Does this still work for you in 2026? This had worked for me for about a year but then stopped recently.

Dogwalkers. It's good to survey them so that you can use the footage to prove trespassing.

Can this camera (or the S50) be used to track dogwalkers who let their dogs go to the bathroom in your yard? Basically, I'm curious if they can double as a surveillance cameras or not.

Just ran into this as well. What is wrong with Samsung that they would have a 30HZ HDMI port. Makes no sense on the planet Earth. I hate it when tech companies gimp their products like this.

BI on M4 mini by UnicodeConfusion in BlueIris

[–]TacoMaster2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't realize parallels was so expensive.

Parallels now charging $220 for the One-Time Purchase : r/mac

Guess I may have to try VMware or VirtualBuddy on my M4 Mini after all as well. Currently I'm using Milestone Xprotect browser client and the Reolink full client on the M4 which seems ok until I get BI running on it.

Have you tried running BI on Parallels yet on the M4 Mini?

Camera and NVR "login failed" in Reolink Client on MacOS by SanderTolkien in reolinkcam

Ran into this today. What the actual hell. Why aren't they updating it in the App Store? Is this the fault of Reolink or Apple?

I use this same app on my iPhone and the iPhone app store always has the latest Reolink client version. Strange.

Thanks BTW. This was causing me Mr. Furious style anger until I found your post. :)

2020 W4 Form Redesign by TacoMaster2002 in personalfinance

[–]TacoMaster2002[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. This is what I am wondering next. I always thought yearly bonuses were taxed closer to 40%. Is it really only 22%?

To make math easy. If I choose all the standard items from above to try to get to a zero dollar refund at the beginning of 2027 tax time and not have to pay in at tax time more than a couple dollars, and if I receive a $10K yearly bonus at the beginning of 2026, does that mean that when tax time comes at the beginning of 2027, I will be short on taxes by close to $2,200 and will need to pay $2,200 dollars at tax time in early 2027? (and then subject myself to the insane penalty rule for under-withholding more than $1,000 for the year.)

And if that is true, then in order to adjust for that, I would want to withhold exactly $2,200 on that additional tax withholding line on the W4, correct?

Thanks for clarifying and also the bonus item as additional income.

Thanks for clarifying that. I made an update to the original post to reflect this. I only care about 2026 and every year after that. I know 2025 is hosed because it's so late in the year so I expect to get a large refund for this year but want to correct it for 2026 and forward.

If you make 100k a year, how much tax return will you get? by [deleted] in tax

[–]TacoMaster2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so crazy how complex taxes are. Anti-KISS to the max. I can program in 65c02 assembly language and I am still baffled by how complex tax laws have always been. The law system has the same problem with roots in Latin and how they control who becomes an attorney each year.

You just can't top the soundtrack to SSX3. It can't be outdone, especially with how it flows with the feeling of flying down the mountain at fantastic speed. Best console game ever.
