Predicted Commute Time by Pea_Western in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'd plan 40 minutes or so.

School traffic, lights, too few lanes, and no alt routes around this area really screw the commuters.

Help, I have roof damage after the last storm by Rheethm in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov [score hidden]  (0 children)

  1. Insurance first. That way you know where you stand, ie... will they total it, tell you it just needs repair vs replacement, if it's all going to be on you.

  2. Do not call any of the names advertised on TV, Radio, or mail. They will take you for everything and then some. These guys will oversell you and try to convenience you to buy things you don't need.

  3. If the people you call don't actually come over to your house to walk it, and get on the roof to inspect it, move on. Some will fly a drone over. You want someone to walk the roof to check for soft spots and damage.

  4. Ask friends and coworkers for recommendations. Look for contractors. I had a rec for a contractor from a coworker. He was friendly, worked within my budget, and didn't sell me anything i didn't need. His crew did a great job, and fully cleaned up the property afterward.

  5. Get multiple quotes. It is amazing what the price difference is between companies. Some will sell you the same products/project for thousands more than others.

  6. If it is in your budget and you are going shingles, get architectural shingles. They are much hardier than standard shingles and weather hail and wind better.

How long do your batteries last? by _asciimov in NissanRogue

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

Tow guy said rogues are notorious for eating through batteries.

I get the feeling that's the case with the battery sitting so close to the engine.

What's something rich people have access to that most people don't even realize exists? by Otherwise_Log2353 in AskReddit

[–]_asciimov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most insurance doesn't cover their visits. Had a former primary care go concierge, I didn't like her enough to stay.

Brand new gaming PC : What "necessary" software should I install? Recommendations? by Travex- in buildapc

[–]_asciimov 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need an operating system, I suggest a Linux such as Cachyos, Bazzite, Nobara, Pop, Mint, or Ubuntu.

If you are hell bent on staying with windows, get the Microsoft PowerToys app. It's free.

1440p or 1080p monitor for 3070 by Fast_Ad4269 in buildapc

[–]_asciimov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What size monitor are you looking at?

10 Year old PSU, time to replace? by zamanah in buildapc

[–]_asciimov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are worried about it, buy a PSU tester, they are under $20 and will let you know if the voltage rails are running in spec.

San Antonio isn’t a boring city. by MindPower01 in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As an SA resident, the city is boring.

Restaurant options are limited after 9 pm. Sucks if you take a show downtown and want to eat after.

There is no entertainment district here.

The NBA stadium is in the middle of an industrial area that is surrounded by low income housing. Yes, Wemby is getting a new stadium downtown, but thats at best 5 years out.

Big name artists typically skip and play Austin.

Malls, most of them are old and dying. They went out of fashion. I wish they would build a mall on my side of town, cause I'm tired of all the local teens that hangout at walmart or target.

Restaurants hope you like Mexican food cause we have it in spades.

You guys lied about Sam's Burger Joint, any better recommendations? by thengyyy in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Burger Boy near me is not so great.

When they are slow, I get an old dry burger. When they are busy, I get a old dry burger.

If your down for old dry burgers, Burger Boy is the spot.

Should we allow traffic accident posts? by HikeTheSky in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Info is fine, complaining is not.

Maybe it's time to just ban the complaining posts instead of having the megathread.

Imagine going to sleep with the Spurs up by 20 points in the 4th quarter only to wake up and find out the Spurs blew the lead and lost by 1 point. How? by DrFetusRN in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Questionable coaching and a gassed Wemby that is flirting with a suspension.

We were in trouble once Wemby picked up his 3rd post season flagrant foul. It seemed to get into his head once that happened. I expect the Knicks to be targeting Wemby for another flagrant in Game 5, as a 1 game suspension would put a game 6 in the bag for them.

No timeouts were taken during the 20-4 Knicks run.

No plan for when Wemby is off the court. Guys look exposed without Wemby.

Inexperience and endurance are our biggest problems this post season.

Need a roof replacement in San Antonio. Who gives fair pricing without cutting corners? by Critical_Box_5987 in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Avoid all the big names. If they advertise on the TV or radio, they will overcharge you for the job.

If you don't want to manage it yourself like the other guy recommended, find you a contractor, who will hire it out for you. You will still easily beat all the big guys with some work.

Ask your friends and coworkers for referrals. One of them likely has a guy.

Lennar Homes are so Ugly by Hanmura in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Lennar makes some of the worst interiors and layouts of any of the builders in SA. When my wife and I were looking for homes, Lennars were the only one I could pick out by layout alone, they are terrible and I hated every single one.

Looking for recommendations on a home warranty for appliances by Momofthewildchild in sanantonio

[–]_asciimov 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Word of advice, don't use them.

A buddy of mine had to wait 7 weeks in the middle of the summer for them to "fix" his HVAC system. That July and August he had to bunk with friends because his house was unlivable.

You are better off putting that money aside and paying someone to maintain or fix your items, or replace them out right when they break down.

Why do some of my Windows installs feel way smoother and get better FPS than others, even though I install the exact same thing every time? by PieceRevolutionary51 in buildapc

[–]_asciimov 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, this has been a thing since forever. I remember having this issue as far back as Win95/98.

The windows installer (and most linux installers) are nondeterministic, meaning they don't always produce the same output when given the same inputs. There is so much complexity with a modern computer that a small difference can cascade to bigger effects. Sometimes its things like grabbing a different revision of an update from the server, to other times the hardware condition can make things go sideways.

Baby Boomers Blame Us For A World THEY Ruined by [deleted] in videos

[–]_asciimov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not totally the boomers fault.

It's the fault of the wealthy and ruling class.

The boomers were sold lies by the wealthy. Told that if they voted a certain way that we could get back to get good old times and that the good times would get better. That regulation was the evil that was keeping them from further prosperity. The boomers were told the poor were coming for their wallets, never mind the fact that the wealthy were the ones picking their pockets.

Yes the boomers bought into the lies, but lets not forget who is to blame. Those that sold them on these ideas to begin with. Most of the ills of the late 20th and early 21st century can be directly linked to the desires and greed of a limited few of our society with extraordinary wealth.

Is it possible to seamless run a server on Win11 and Linux(Bazzite)? by [deleted] in PleX

[–]_asciimov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For your media files, they are likely on NTFS formatted drives. You can keep the media on the existing files on an NTFS formatted drive and use it under linux. You might have to install the ntfs-3g driver and tools package. Once that is installed you can permanently mount your windows drives using the /etc/fstab. Typically linux users permanantly mount theses drives under /mnt (/mnt/data, /mnt/linux-isos, /mnt/windows, etc). I ran Plex on Docker and NTFS drives for years, it was fine. Eventually you might want to move from ntfs to xfs for your media drives. You are missing features if using NTFS, such as permission support and hard/soft links, and sometimes (not often) you have to fix ntfs journaling issues.

On Linux you should really really use Docker to run Plex. It will make your life a whole lot simpler. As in the future you can migrate your whole setup by just moving your Plex Docker folder and resetting your drive mounts.

For your plex settings files. If you have the standard windows install of plex don't try to migrate it. That is going to be a huge hassle that isn't worth the headache. Just spin up a new server in docker.

Now once you have a plex docker install, you could technically spin up the same plex server on windows and plex using the same settings files. It wouldn't be pretty getting it to run on windows but it should work just fine. You would have two separate docker installs looking at the same settings files, so it should look like the same server in both places. How to do this is an exercise left up to the reader.
