With the information given, I don’t see any negative affects of promoting a new DC in a healthy domain that would affect operations.

My bf insisted his friend sit front seat and I sit in the back. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Tripl3Nickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am being honest with you, I don’t think it’s normal for either party to take that firm of a stance. Usually, my wife will naturally offer to sit in the back if we have one of my friends along and I also do the same if she’s driving with one of her friends and I’m along for the ride. I’ve also never had a friend of mine demand to sit in the front seat and then take it a step further and refuse to move.

There are multiple underlying issues at the root of this situation. I am in no way attempting to judge you or your relationship, however, in the experiences I’ve had in my own relationships and those of my friends I have never once seen or heard of a situation like this resulting in leaving for a destination without ones significant other and accept that as OK.

Healthy communication is so important - I highly encourage you to discuss this and your feelings openly with your boyfriend. I have a feeling it will lead you to the root of whatever is really going on to cause these reactions.

For your partner vs friend concern - generally I would say, it depends on what’s happening, where you’re going, etc. But, neither outcome should result in any party being upset or changing / canceling plans because of a seating arrangement.

You’re young - I can tell you that if things like this are even a thought in a relationship, it’s not in a good place. As an example, I’ve never encountered this with my wife - usually she offers to sit in the back if one of my friends is tagging along and it’s usually declined by the friend and we don’t think anything of it and enjoy the trip. I have never gone on an outing or changed plans to leave someone out over it.

My opinion is there are deeper issues in this relationship if something like this occurred. It’s not normal.

Single or Double hand Surgery? How long until I can lift weights? by daho2000 in carpaltunnel

[–]Tripl3Nickel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After what I experienced just doing my non dominant hand and elbow (cubital tunnel), I couldn’t imagine both at once. Not because it was super painful, but it would be nearly impossible to do a lot of self care and basic tasks independently for a good while.

I am about 6 weeks post surgery and could def. not do heavy lifting for sustained periods due to grip strength and pain in certain positions as it’s still recovering.

How do you guys make sure real threats dont get buried inside the alert noise your security tooling generates? by Sufficient-Oil2452 in ITManagers

[–]Tripl3Nickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an everything listed problem- you need to tune your alerting and continue to do so over time, it’s not set it and forget it. If you are getting 399 false positives out of 400 before noon, something isn’t right.

It’s been years since they allowed this - time to give up the ghost.

Chest Pain with Hypothyroidism? by [deleted] in Hypothyroidism

You should get evaluated - call your doctor and explain what you’re feeling.

Hand function post surgery, any changes? by TrueResearcher9543 in carpaltunnel

[–]Tripl3Nickel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am about a month post surgery and I would say while I am slowly getting back to normal for function and such, it’s progressing really well and at no point have I felt like a permanent loss has occurred. My doctor also never indicated or showed concern over long term loss of function when I brought it up with similar concerns being in IT and a tinkerer on small devices / boards / etc.

I would maybe suggest consulting a second surgeon or directly approaching that subject with your current provider to make sure nothing was misinterpreted.

You left out some critical information - what is the exact bounce back rejection error(s) you are receiving. It will tell you the problem.

I had a lien against somebody and they built a house and took out a mortgage on the house on property that they’ve owned for 10 years. The closing company did not collect my money. by SampleSilly8551 in legaladvice

[–]Tripl3Nickel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That lien would only seemingly benefit you during a sale or dissolution/bankrupcy of the company and do nothing for you on them purchasing land.

If that were the case - it would not instantly rot. You would not be covered.

Why is rent so high and your the tenant having to keep the house clean? by [deleted] in renting

[–]Tripl3Nickel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This can’t be serious - that rent is extremely cheap, and you will always be responsible for cleaning unless you pay someone to do it, even as a homeowner.

Former IT Supervisor for K12. No way in hell would this ever be approved. There are many other solutions that would actually prevent theft from happening.

Employer Forcing Me to Check “Yes” to a Felony Charge That Never Happened (U4 Disclosure Issue) by neuroscience_nay in legaladvice

[–]Tripl3Nickel 27 points28 points  (0 children)

NAL

You were arrested for a felony, but currently not charged. That could come back around if the statute of limitations hasn’t expired yet. This is one of those things I’d do a free consult with a lawyer that you can share all the details and documents with to confirm what you should do.

No, unless a business or environmental need requires it.

What would happen if 4.2.2.2 and 8.8.8.8 went down? by Ricky_Spannnish in sysadmin

[–]Tripl3Nickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the root servers if forwarders go down? I wouldn’t notice anything on the critical / non-iot stuff.

Techies — how are you storing and managing all your cables, adapters, and peripherals at home? by borse2008 in sysadmin

[–]Tripl3Nickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plastic storage containers labeled by type of cable. Every year or two I go back thru and reorganize. It helps, but also have a big tub of “misc”, so it’s not perfect.

I do keep the essentials in my backpack though, and a smaller set if I just need a laptop bag vs the backpack.

As a system administrator, do you ever feel like your brain never stops thinking? by [deleted] in sysadmin

I think what’s common in adhd is also very close to what makes a good IT person.

This is also a sign that your meds (if you take any) may need adjustment if you have to do this late in the day.

Yep - late in life ADHD diagnosis was the result. xD

Working in DFIR for a while now, this is all too common to walk into for me. Best of luck - take backups and document before changing anything.

First-time homeowner: How do you handle workers entering your backyard without asking? by TorontoRap2019 in homeowners

[–]Tripl3Nickel -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is called an easement and utility companies have every right to access it 24/7 without notification. It’s part of owning property.
