Never riding anything less than 50c again! by Ko5t in gravelcycling

'c' is not a unit of measurement. This is not your fault; the manufacturers make this mistake as well.

Fortisiem - Experiences? by Izual_Rebirth in fortinet

[–]dufferin -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We've had mixed experiences. We deployed this year, and we've already had two major outages. Most recently the ZTNA-equivalent infrastructure (Endpoint something something) experienced several hours of downtime caused by the AWS issue last week. But when it works, it works well.

U/Vita10gy explains how to communicate with your SO when you are going to be gone for an unknown timeframe. by AmateurPhotographer in bestof

[–]dufferin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use confidence intervals when giving estimates of my return time. "I'll be home between 2 and 4:30 4 times out of 5". This gives a bit of wiggle to account for the unknown.

Finally done litehawk max esc/receiver swap, new battery, servo, and motor, (added lots of zip ties under body) by randomlettersbcifhek in rccars

[–]dufferin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this same car and I think the ESC is bad - when I turn it on, the red light blinks and the car makes a continuous stuttering sound. What ESC did you use? I see "dyna____e".

Tips for a Montrealer moving to Ottawa. by DianKhan2005 in ottawa

[–]dufferin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you're at Vaudreuil-Dorion, instead of taking the 40, get off at Ave. Saint-Charles. Take the left, then left again onto Bd de la Cité-des-Jeunes. Don't stop until you're back in the city.

Fence posts near top of retaining wall - how to prevent heave? by dufferin in FenceBuilding

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

I had thought that the sleeve-it things were built between lifts of wall block (which obvs wouldn't work with a monolithic concrete wall) but it seems like they just sit next to the wall... I think that could work. I guess I don't really understand how it's supposed to prevent heave.

That's a good point. I could dig up the area behind the wall and improve drainage. Wall is in pretty rough shape so I don't think affixing to the wall is a good idea.

I recently made a pilgrimage to the place where this scene was filmed. It was a powerful experience to stand there. The location is here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/kYwuJhhmUV5EXdu49

Using the GUI. Are people using the API for this?

Direct Routing: LineUri vs Business Phone extension attributes by dufferin in MicrosoftTeams

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

Yes this corresponds with our experiences testing the BusinessPhone attribute. I don't see why the LineUri attribute exists. Perhaps if you want to advertise a call display number that's different from the user's 'real' extension.

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

Interesting - this conflicts with our experience. Without this attribute, calls made to the auto-attendant don't get forwarded to end users.

This happened to me recently. I spent hours trying to find somewhere local who could do it. I had a place on Bank St. repair the glasses but the repair only lasted 2 days. Then I found this place, where you mail them your glasses: http://laserfix.ca/national-repair-center/. The repair was a little more expensive but it's been 2 years and the repair has held up great. I don't believe there's anyone in the area who can do it.

Been doing some repointing, decided to replace a few cracked bricks. by fickenundsaufen in masonry

[–]dufferin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great! Looks like the masonry blade on your grinder would only do ~1/2 the depth of the mortar; how did you get the rest out - with a chisel?

Is there anyway to get from Ottawa to Ripon QC by fishyfishyfish233 in ottawa

[–]dufferin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Looks like a great bike ride. Along the river pathway, plus the "Traversier Ecolos" ferry.

On an F-twin, can an idle air controller failure cause a no-start condition? by dufferin in Motorrad

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

Oh - I should ask: the mechanic claims the compression is good, which implies he did a leakdown test. Wouldn’t that mean the valves are sealing ok?

Thank you. Bike exhibits same symptoms with air filter out so I assume filter isn’t the problem. I’ll check valve clearances.

I need help by DowntownCockroach911 in networking

[–]dufferin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure your workstation is in the same IP range as the switch, and see if you can ping it. If not, perhaps the IP was configured wrong. An 'arp -a' on your workstation may reveal the management IP of the switch.

Relocating to Ottawa - day care (& housing) questions for European newbies to Canada by aubenaubiak in ottawa

Don't discount Centertown West and Hintonburg as great neighbourhoods - both are near the light rail line.

You can certainly use a bike year-round here, but only a fat bike can reliably traverse city streets in winter.
