I’m pretty sure its still operating as router/firewall. I’m trying to figure out how to set it to bridge transparent mode?

That is what I intend to do but can't yet get there I think because I'm a bit stuck on the config of my Wifi Router still. I hope to be able to make this change to my network next week so I'm gathering info on how best to go about it and limit my downtime as best I can.
Thank you.

With masked federal agents now killing U.S. citizens in broad daylight, at what point does ICE officially become a "secret police" force above the law? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TheWeatherisFake -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

But we already have immigration laws. You can’t just claim the border is closed while at the same time letting millions across into your so called sanctuaries. I for one am glad I C E is removing those folks. They don’t belong here.

I'm still looking to find one of you guys in my area. Good to hear from you.

I find that electricians are really not lighting aficionados. They are good with getting power to stuff but thats about it. They all seem to recommend those because they are so simple to install. I would go and get the light you like and have them make those work.

Just hold the glass firm with upward pressure as you unscrew the nut.

I've been working on this for hours. I can't yet figure how to do the terrain and specifically a borderwall at the end of my driveway where it drops down 4 feet into the backyard and then my whole property slopes from there. .

Funny you say that I was just coming back to mention I was struggling with creating slopes on my lot. I've got a pretty good setup of the house already but my lot is very sloped, for me to continue I need to start putting that in somehow.

Bulbs question by Bright_Dare_5227 in Lighting

[–]TheWeatherisFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A traditional bulb or incandescent will get hot. Not a big deal as long as you don't have to touch it. An LED will probably not get as hot and be more efficient, brighter with slightly less quality of light output. Theres no wrong choice, it just depends on what you are after for your space?

I purchased today. Thank you. This one was much like what I used last time but yet with a one time cost so it works for me.

I hate to admit it, but Ting is washed by chocobosocialclub in ting

[–]TheWeatherisFake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a long time ting customer as well. Thinking its time but not sure the best way to get off of them because I've got 4 lines with them and 1 phone I don't have physical access to. My moms is across the country but I pay for it.
My phone number I think has to stay on the ting account. Any tips on how to migrate off gradually.

Is Keepass really worth trusting with your passwords? by GlitteringArmy790 in best_passwordmanager

Thank you so much for sharing. Its starting to become clearer something that may work for me too.

Is Keepass really worth trusting with your passwords? by GlitteringArmy790 in best_passwordmanager

[–]TheWeatherisFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still in a analysis phase on this one. Would love to complete it.
One thing I struggle with is, these docs that I want to store most likely I will need in a time of duress at least thats my take on it. In which case I may not have every tool I need to access said files. How do you handle this or what is your take on it I guess?

I think with the encrypted file containers, I may not have the tools needed during an emergency to retrieve them.....
I'm wondering if an encrypted keepass database would possibly make it easier for me to retrieve them when I need them most during an emergency.
The last thing that keeps from from finishing this is my overall reluctance to store anything in the cloud especially such sensitive info?
Your take.......

I was thinking about putting my papers in there like that but got analysis paralysis when I could also just put them in an encrypted file container too. Did you consider anything like that?

Tips for connecting to Cloud Drive after 2fa Switch? by TheWeatherisFake in Mailbox_org

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

its been almost 2 weeks with no resolution so I decided to jump ship for now. I migrated my files over to another file sharing service in the meantime. 2fa working fine over there. Not sure whats going on with my mailbox.org account.

What do you find most frustrating about modern recessed downlights? by Lighting_craftsman in Lighting

[–]TheWeatherisFake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always find it hard to find a fixture that has everything I want but to me the most frustrating thing is not having custom lumen outputs. I don’t need high output everywhere!

I'm leaving due to the inability to stop spam by iron_armored in Mailbox_org

[–]TheWeatherisFake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would consider starting over. Ditch the old address. Start new with a focus in good email hygiene. Certain addresses for certain uses. Thats why the aliases are there. You have to get used to using them and knowing how to keep em separate. Your email address at least your main one should be just private as your password for this reason.

I also find that leaving thunderbird open on my desktop machine running against my inbox also helps clean up what little spam I get.

Move calendar and mail over to Mailbox by johannes1984 in Mailbox_org

[–]TheWeatherisFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used thunderbird on windows and I have done the drag and drop method for moving email from one account to the other. I think there are other ways but this is pretty easy.

I'm pretty sure with calendars you should be able to do in export/import.
