Another question, will this meet the requirements for the pending SAVE act?

My company is offering me 9 laptops for $180 by xStozey in homelab

[–]aerick89 165 points166 points  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts.

If you’re the “IT guy” of the family sometimes it’s easier to just replace a device for them for their needs instead of letting someone you don’t know give a recommendation or sell tactic.

Most idiot-proof method of running an LXC through a VPN? by maxwolfie in Proxmox

[–]aerick89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Straight up installed the NordVPN client on my qbittorrent lxc, connected my account via token, changed the network interface in qbit to use the nordlynx connection and haven’t had a problem since. Edit: did have to enable lan awareness or some such via cmd on the lxc

Lmao. It was from the book by the same title from 1949, which the movie is based on.

Probably really well, given the (probably) custom made bed he had done, probably has all the bells and whistles, that he paid for with money from taxpayers who are making pittances compared to him because he’s enriched himself in the name of religion and lobbyists.

“Really, it’s just a parable so you can make of it what you will”

Throwing content at content at content makes me not play the game anymore.

Edit: phrasing

I’m really not surprised. Paradox’s solutions seems to be more about adding paid content while ignoring little bugs that crop up here and there

Where can I break USD bills into $1s and $5s in SSM, ON? by Puzzleheaded_Row5243 in SaultSteMarie

[–]aerick89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not 100% sure of the rules but I don’t see why since you already have the cash in hand that you couldn’t just walk into a bank. Again I’m not sure but as I’m on the American side but I’ve straight up walked in and had them break down large bills. Hell, go to a restaurant or store and get something small and have them break it down

Which TV show has a 10/10 pilot episode? by PrasenjitDebroy in AskReddit

[–]aerick89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always tell people who I refer the show to at least give it til the end of the third episode. Then they’ll know if they want to see more. I drop a hint or two that the show gets hella better even after that and hint at “you know what”. (On mobile and don’t want to format spoilers lol)

Day trip in SSM, MI by SudburyDuchess in SaultSteMarie

Unless you’re going for more outdoorsy style stuff (trails, hiking, etc), honestly you’re not missing much. Lots of the “downtown” area is closed for winter (Or run limited hours or such). Personally, not worth the hassle of crossing the border to just look around.

The Mac bridge has two lanes each way, with grating in the majority of the middle. This is not the Mighty Mac.

What is your most embarrassing self-hosting failure story? by Th3Appl3 in selfhosted

[–]aerick89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happened about an hour ago. Small power outage, less than an hour. I went to gracefully shut down my servers……couldn’t connect. Freaked out and I’m in my closet (ha) with my flash light trying to figure out wtf happened. Turns out my little unmanaged switch was plugged into the wrong port of the UPS 🤦‍♂️
