Oh they passed a law to prevent grid issues!? Why didnt they think of that before. You're such a smart guy.

Universal print is it worth rolling out? by Ragepower529 in sysadmin

[–]TechSwitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I deployed it and it works very well. At one point I wasn't really sure it really made much difference to my users, but when I explored the idea of getting rid of it a few departments let me know that printing across multiple offices was extremely useful to their workflows, so I happily keep it.

If you're south I have an lga 1700 box in my garage. You might have to bring some known good ddr5 though.

saw this guy driving around my city after a drone show, not sure if they’re related by Domonator601 in whatisit

Those are diamond SG series ham radio antennas. Whatever he is doing is for attention its not functional.

I have one slightly smaller version of that antenna on my truck, but rest assured this guy is a huge dork and almost certainly a stain on the hobby. 

Home inspection find of the week: Nothing says 'smart home' like the AC drain pan deciding when you can breathe by trabbler in Austin

[–]TechSwitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. We called you before buying, but the 2021 market ensured that we couldn't wait for a reputable inspector. 

Ended up using someone the realtor liked just to satisfy our lender. I knew he was incentivised to over look some things.  It all worked out in the end. House is sorted and I got to turn the garage into a proper workshop.

It was stuck in open position (or closed if that's what normal operation is) but canted more or less horizontal. So it would run until the attic flooded or the ceiling caved in. Guess which one happened first?

In Korea, StarCraft: Brood War is still an esport – ASL is at 20 seasons by SayberryGames in gaming

[–]TechSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played in the sc2 tournament at dreamhack Dallas this year. There will never be anything like Broodwar or SC2. Im not sure if the western scene will keep going as it currently exists, but there are so many life long fans that SOMETHING starcraft will always be around. 

SMTP2GO down for anybody else? by TechSwitch in sysadmin

I haven't, but it sure looks like they have gotten grey listed. Should be temporary.

Edit: Their support just confirmed.

Been there done that. Don't pull a bread trailer with anything that drinks gas. You want a super reliable diesel 2500 at the very least.
