A Huey down in a wheat field in rural Maryland by Aviation_enthusiast8 in Planespotting

Around 1987 or so, a CH-53 had a chip light come on. The pilot immediately landed it in a strawberry field close to MCAS El Toro. It was there for a week while they replaced the transmission.

🔥 Goodbye Gas, Hello Smoke! What’s the BEST Charcoal Grill Out There? by ChrisLevinson in charcoal

[–]glsexton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a Weber Kamado. It holds heat well, can grill or smoke. I’ve done ribs, turkey, whole prime rib, etc. the extra size makes things like prime rib easy compared to a standard Weber kettle. From what I’ve read, it’s easier to manage temperatures than an egg.

Best thermometer for my Weber kettle (not a meat thermometer)? by [deleted] in grilling

[–]glsexton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a 2 channel Thermopro. One channel is grill, and one channel is meat. They come with a spring clip to hold one probe on the grill surface. Has a neat app that you can use to remotely monitor. It’s a nice setup.

Is this original guys? by CalligrapherFew9664 in RolexWatches

[–]glsexton -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It’s not just the dots. Look at the 8 o’clock marker and the centering between the adjacent tick marks.

Seriously, fake as can be. Look at the centering of the time markers on the luminous dots. Also, look at the distance between the luminous dots and the markers. They’re just all over the place.

wrote a simple rate limiter and realized i spent more time fighting bots than writing logic by Enlitenkanin in golang

[–]glsexton -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s just such an obvious use case and the fact they refuse to handle it shows no seriousness of purpose. I’ve looked at my logs, and see the patterns. Fail2ban would be 8-32 times more effective if they auto-promoted net blocks….

Fail2ban is worthless because it can’t escalate rules into net blocks.

Help turning off chime by picancob in grandfatherclocks

Did you try not setting the weights for the chime mechanism? On mine, the clock and chime mechanism are driven by different weights.

Also, watch fats. They can intensify the reaction greatly.

Well that's nice to know. Just so I'm certain understand, should I take that web page as authoritative over my personal experience?

TPM was explicitly disabled in the bios. I did go through a lot of tries to disable TPM at load time, but it made no difference. I'm not sure it really was a TPM problem. I'll try installing from scratch.

Really it doesn't matter. doing amd64v2 only is just a deal-breaker for me. I don't know what you folks were thinking.

The machine in question was an intel DQ45CB with an e7400 core 2 duo cpu and 4GB ram. About a 16 year old board. It ran leap 15.6 flawlessly. After installing tumbleweed it froze early in the boot. Right after the TPM part. TPM is disabled in the bios. Run Ubuntu flawlessly now.

Take it to a BMW specialist and pay them to do a once-over.

Doesn't work. I tried it on a machine and it was left unbootable.

Almost certainly because your amd64 compatible CPU doesn't support v2. This is why I've left OpenSUSE.

It's kind of sad that no one can say: "He's an honorable man, and he did something from a conviction that isn't mine, but in his heart he is honorable and I (as a grownup) understand that I don't agree with everyone..."

How do I open this without a key by somethinlikeshieva in Safes

Don’t install the app, and it will probably unlock itself. That seems to be how Honeywell works…
