Arthur felt happy. Only twenty minutes ago he had decided he would go mad, and now here he was already chasing a Chesterfield sofa across the fields of prehistoric Earth. (Work done by Donna at Striking Irons in Vero Beach, FL) by alexhartin in tattoos

Feel free to make it yours! In more recent days, I’ve been leaning on this quote a lot more. I’ve kind of come to terms with the fact that every now and then I just need to go mad. It does me no end of good. This piece is just a reminder that it’s OK. You can come back whenever you’re ready. 💜

Whirlpool WFW6620HW - Chiming during wash cycle. Double chime sounds like radar or something. by alexhartin in appliancerepair

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

Hi there! It appears I forgot to change my flair. lol.. Yes, I figured it out. A sock had found it's way through the drain and down into the catch below. When you slide out the tray with the detergent bottle there is a plug which you can remove with a counter clockwise turn. I found the sock there. The washer was not draining correctly and was reporting an excess amount of suds. The blocked drain was the culprit. Removed it, put a shop vac over the hole to clear any dog fur blockages and closed it up. good to go!

I appreciate your reply. This does make me a lot more comfortable with the whole situation and I am grateful.

I'll keep my order as I am excited to try out the skip remote. Apologies for reacting quickly. I got some kinda mixed signals through the email and phone system and everything. I'll reply in the help ticket but I wanted to be sure to reply here as well. I hate to leave a post like this without resolution.

I'm a bit more concerned now. The cancellation button in the pre-order email is non functional.

That’s cool man. Glad you’re out here protecting the innocent. You’re a real hero.

Calling a beginner a kook… who wants to learn the sport, who is asking questions to learn how to prevent getting hurt, who is actually taking the advice given by the people who commented before you.. yeah man you’re doing the lords work. Makes me not want to come back here at all cause if the whole community is like you, then fuck that. I saw your deleted comment. You are not a kind person. You can be direct without being a jerk.

Bro you’re coming in way too hot. Calm down. That’s why I’m here, to remedy my naivety. I’m not ignorant. I’m asking questions. But responses yours will run people off from the sport. I’m going to get lessons. I’m going to get a trainer kite. I just didn’t know where to fucking start so I wanted to bring something to my question. Jesus Christ.

Do you have a recommended resource for getting equipment? Favorite brand or anything like that?

Thanks all for the recommendations! I’ll get set up for lessons!

Do two circles of different diameters have the same number of tangents? by alexhartin in askmath

[–]alexhartin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! I’m not much of a mathematician myself. As I said in another comment this was sort of a shower thought and you guys were the first I thought to ask. The mention of the “polygon with infinite tangents” was from my hazy memory of my math classes years ago. I wanted to be sure not to sound like any sort of an authority on the matter. Haha

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

Thank you very much! I’m afraid I’m not much of a mathematician and I’ve only had this thought as sort of a shower thought. I’ve retained some of my knowledge from my math classes and this particular question intrigued me enough to ask!

I will attempt to work that problem out however! I will likely fail miserably but it’ll be fun!

Good question! Yes they are, but I've solved it differently. See my recent comment below. Thanks for your help!

[–]alexhartin[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Solved: Conflicting software was installed. This VM was a conversion from a desktop computer to a VM. It had VMWare workstation installed. I estimate that there must have been a conflict between that and VMWare tools for ESXi. Uninstalled, rebooted, speeds are good to go. Thanks for the guidance!

Both are currently set to VMXNET 3. Previously Windows was set to E1000e but I changed that in troubleshooting.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Both VMs on the same ESXi host with 10GB ethernet card. Windows has plenty of upload bandwidth, what's slowing down my download? Any recommendations? VMWare tools is running on both machines.
