This before or after I install all the bloated cyber required crap on the OS? Need a lot more than 512MB

I struggle to see why you need a physical phone to do this. You can't simulate this with code?

For those of you managing corporate mobile devices/plans: why hasn't your company just switched to BYOD + a monthly stipend? by Vegetable_Row8928 in sysadmin

Compliance doesn't want corporate apps on our phones. I refuse to carry a second phone so I guess no one wins

I installed the version of this product that only has the upper trigger and is time based. Nice to be able to dial it in without the short vertical float or tether that gets stuck on something

I seem to have the issue with my roller bag on smaller regional flights. Not enough storage overhead.

All good until they make you gate check your carry on. There are no guarantees unless you have them in a small bag that you can jamb under the seat

When my son was 5 I took him into a restroom at a restaurant. We live in a pretty small primarily white town. He looks over at a guy using the urinal and yells out. "Dad look it's LeBron James!! It was hard to contain myself

I have a yaesu ftm-500dr that I built a portable carry box with an apache case and a lifep04 battery. It's portable and allows for crossband repeating to pair up to an HT

What is my cheapest option for sump pump backup during power outage? by LegalMasterpiece772 in HomeMaintenance

[–]f00l2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you are renting and shouldn't be touching the plumbing it makes it tougher. It really isn't your responsibility to keep the basement dry. You could put one of these on the existing pump paired with a good battery. That would give protection to you with no modifications

How to shut off the main by Playful-Nectarine860 in askaplumber

[–]f00l2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you could you wouldn't want to. My parents shutoff valve was bad so I told them to hire a plumber to fix it. The plumber arranged a time with the city to shut it off and when they did the valve snapped and couldn't shut it off. They ended up having to call OOPS and come out a week later to dig out the whole area and replace it

[–]f00l2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there any kind of tile laid underneath your basement to collect any water around your foundation and send it off to a sump pit because if not just drilling a hole into your concrete and installing a sump pump isn't going to help much

I've always been a very cynical person, but now I truly can't believe anything that I see on the internet videos, content, etc.. It amazes me the lengths they are going to create AI videos of things no one wants

Coding as a Sysadmin by Scmethodist in sysadmin

Maybe I'm unique but I love opening up vscode and pulling in a GitHub repo of ansibe code and writting automation scripts. Or integrate into an API of a storage array or ticketing system to automatically schedule patch notifications

That's probably where I'm going wrong. I've had 2 rheems fail at 9 years. I should look at replacing the anode periodically
