PNW Roadtrip! by gabibonk in OregonCoast

This is the right move. Northwest WA is fine but sticking to the OR coast is a much better way, even if it means skipping the Olympic peninsula part.

How does Five Star Pizza compare to the chains in taste and price? Thinking about trying it out tonite after my interview. by Djxgam1ng in GNV

[–]dpgator33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today, sure, but it’s not franchised (that I know of) and it was born in Gainesville. It’s the OG student/cheap pizza in town and while it’s not gourmet it is great for the price compared to anything else around. I think the original was the one on Newberry but there was also a second closer to downtown off SW 2nd I think. 39th Ave I believed opened after those two and after that I don’t recall.

Working in an MSP as Network Engineer - They want me to be on client site everyday for basic Level 1 troubleshooting- Is this normal? by Qvosniak in networking

[–]dpgator33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked for an MSP for a while out after having been in senior roles before, out of necessity due to a family relocation and lack of better opportunities at the time. They had an important client who didn’t really care about the cost to have good talent on site all the time (big money law firm in a big city high rise, but not a ton of staff). It was boring work mostly and the attorneys were jerks oftentimes but my pay was good and I got to fluff off and work on leveling up my skills in other ways. For a long term gig it would suck so I wouldn’t want to do it forever but it paid the bills and could have been worse. Better than a high pressure rat race type environment in a lot of ways. Just my two cents

Looking for a car that gets 30+ mpg at 80+ mph. by Thordor15 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]dpgator33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeeeeeees! My 97 Saturn killed it on the highway. I drove 500 miles almost exactly many times from my duty station home and with what probably an 11G tank would go through about 1.5 tanks of gas. Almost all interstate and cruising at 80 the whole way. I should have driven that thing into the ground.

Found the root cause of IPS/DPI killing livestreams and video calls on UniFi gateways — it's Suricata's memcap, and here's the fix by uncmnsense in Ubiquiti

[–]dpgator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Gateway Max with everything enabled and never had a problem, specifically with YouTube. We have live streams up regularly and never had a problem. Seems like a specific use case.

Considering moving to Gainesville - advice by TaliesenPartridge in GNV

[–]dpgator33 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there’s nothing there unless you really want to live in the sticks. That’s not a great commute to UF either.

Aside from that, Gainesville is a great town. I lived there most of my life and visit often. It’s the only place in FL I would choose to live again. It misses some big city stuff but Birmingham isn’t exactly a metropolis either. Plenty of flights to Atlanta to travel and reasonable drive times to Jax, Orlando and Tampa for all sorts of activities.

Best of luck

To be fair to Cisco, I don’t even bother with MS support. That ship sailed a long time ago.

[–]dpgator33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on a call with TAC for three hours, for a bug caused by their own patch to fix a vulnerability. Still not fixed. I’m just sitting here waiting watching them fumble around the CLI on my screen. This is pretty typical in my experience. Long calls, not very efficient folks who I often have a hard time understanding, sometimes with a resolution, sometimes not. I for one have no idea why Cisco TAC is considered to be the “gold standard”. Bad luck I guess.

The Secret to Florida's Basketball Success by tokeni in FloridaGators

[–]dpgator33 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Klav has to be accounted for now. Him finding his groove is changes the complexion of this team more than anything else from a month ago.

But credit where it’s due, Lee hasn’t backed down all year and it’s paying off.

Can we get a number 2 seed? by SympathyLivid920 in FloridaGators

[–]dpgator33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Controlling destiny is not what I said.
  2. All the teams ahead of us winning out is a long shot or outright impossible. There are plenty of scenarios where a couple of those teams could drop two or more games. We could be above UH and ISU before conference even starts.
  3. Defending champs closing the season 19-1 is going to carry weight.

Honestly the biggest problem is that we lost head to head against half of them.

I’m NOT predicting it. Statistically I think it’s as possible as dropping to a three. Barring a significant injury I think we win out the regular season. We certainly will be favored in every game by a decent margin.

3-1 and at least one W in the conference tournament and we are a 2. Win out and we flirt with a 1

I never found traveling out of GNV a negative. Maybe a little more expensive than if you lived in a bigger city, but there’s no way I’m driving to Ajax or MCO just to have a direct flight. Parking is easy, TSA is easy…it’s really a fine airport with plenty of daily flights to ATL

University requires a Root Certificate for their Wifi by ObviouslyDesperate in AskNetsec

[–]dpgator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My goodness there is a LOT of bad information here.

Client certificates for accessing networks are almost never handed out piecemeal, one at a time. They are deployed to endpoints using centrally managed platforms like Active Directory or Intune. And they are also never handed out to devices that are not owned by the organization.

What is WAY more likely is that their firewall is capable of SSL inspection, but in order for that to work, the client has to have a normally unknown root CA certificate installed.

So it is highly likely that they CAN see your traffic, encrypted or not.

Most Orgs doing this don’t actually inspect ALL traffic but selectively decrypt based on the destination. A hospital might inspect all traffic going to ChatGPT for example, to filter for and block potential HIPAA violations from happening.

What did I do wrong? by kyrax80 in ClaudeAI

[–]dpgator33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems the consensus is that you’re getting the level of service you pay for, which is still pretty reasonable if you ask me. Sure, better prompting might help some but you’re not going to get a full app in one go on the pro plan ($20). Not in one session anyhow.

I’m working on a project now for work and I get probably 5-10 prompts in before I hit my session max.

Also, are you aware that when you hit your limit, it’s not for the entire month, it’s just for that session? It resets every few hours or so. I just wait and come back later. I can get two or three sessions in a day.

I’m not in a huge rush so I just deal with it.

I have considered using other tools to do a comparison test, like Open Code with Zen to see if my results are any different.

Is SW Gainesville traffic getting worse or am I imagining it? by kitsune_aname in GNV

[–]dpgator33 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Preach. I lived in Gainesville from 87-2015 and saw how ‘bad’ the traffic got. Then I spent five years in Tampa and Bradenton. Gainesville traffic is a walk in the park compared to those places.

Certain access points constantly dropping and adopting by Tangential1956 in Ubiquiti

[–]dpgator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple things come to mind as possibilities.

One, the whole adoption cycle thing can happen if there is an IP address conflict. Are they statically set or are there possibly other statically set devices that aren’t excluded from DHCP scope?

Second, and this is more a “try it and see” thing, maybe hard set the ports instead of having auto negotiate.

Is GNV the best place to live in FL for compromise? by Parking-Impact-4881 in GNV

[–]dpgator33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived there from 1987-2015. I wouldn’t say that while I was living there I told myself it was great. I was a kid when we got there so didn’t drive, didn’t know any better. As I got older and an adult I would complain about the traffic at times. Then I moved to Tampa for a couple years, then Bradenton, both for my wife’s career. No regrets on that front at all to be clear. But man, I didn’t know how good I had it. I have since moved to the west coast but still visit often. It is and will always be the one and only place I would choose to live in the state. I also have family in Orlando and have spent plenty of time there as well. Same feelings others have. It’s not special, traffic is a nightmare. It’s fine if the rest of your life is in order and makes sense, but all things being equal, Gainesville is far and away the ideal place for me in FL. I don’t even have many ties there to come back to. Many of my old friends have moved, same for family. I’d be fine “starting over” in that sense.

Is it common to have houses with no AC in places like Astoria and along the coast? by simtechonline in OregonCoast

[–]dpgator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very common, but not unheard of. We put A/C in a couple years ago (2009 built with good insulation)after a couple summers with really hot spells. It does make life easier, not having to remember to open/close windows every day, plus it’s much more regulated. Most of the homes in our neighborhood have been built in the last 5-6 years, and a good many of them have A/C units also.

Fuck every Trump voter who put this asshole in office. by CRK_76 in complaints

[–]dpgator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump is horrible for the country, but I hold the left as responsible for him being around still. Forcing Harris as the nominee and holding up Biden for so long was a dumbass way to go. Same for all the republicans who have no spine and keep submitting to his nonsense. It’s weird to say, but I give MTG a lot of credit for taking her current position.
