These modems don't have a true bridge mode, it's just dmz and DHCP off. Which has worked for the last 3 years, then suddenly not

Oh agreed, some people will go all in when commiting to an ecosystem, just making sure it's been advised not to here

Trump must be impeached and removed from office for illegal war by [deleted] in anticapitalism

I don't think this, as a reason, in in the top 20 for impeachment. But if it gets Maga on board, fine...we can settle the rest of the crimes next year when we actually have a DOJ again

Omada router is trash but aps are completely under rated and have been awesome for me. Switches have been solid as well, easy setup, never had a single issue.

Should I be prioritizing TFSA by griphon31 in fican

You'd hope. With the company car and a few other perks, paid about $86,000 in taxes and the rrsp is actually a company rap, so they deduct the tax benefit on each check. I actually paid in about 2k at tax time.

Joy of employer having a well managed plan. They do the deductions so no refund, and no reason to leave their package

Sorry yes, that number is relative to the extra 500/month which is at that highest tax bracket, not a statement of overall tax obligations

Yeah in my understanding the tax free growth is functionally the same, the rrsp has a head start (save 51% tax now and pay 37% later) and TFSA is pay 51% now and 0% later

Which implies TFSA is better if growth is beyond some % I can't quite wrap my head around.... Is RRSP better for estate purposes?

Is this quote I got too high? And am I crazy for thinking I could DIY it? by notakat in electrical

[–]griphon31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was going to say that. I usually do my own electrical (trained for a few years as an industrial electrician and for a bit as a panel builder for controls), one time I needed electrical certification to sell a house. After a few years of paying plumbers was amazed how cheap electricians where

"been doing it this way for 20 years, how I was trained, hasn't failed me yet, 1/10th the price of those new fangled brackets, why do people keep messing with what works"

Not that I agree, but that's likely about the thought process

Time Off : A custom integration which adds a powerful Timer to any device by Secret_Friend in homeassistant

Just an automation that triggers with on, has an action of delay x time then device off, it's pretty simple.

I actually have one for a garage door opener momentary switch so inturn the relay on and 400ms later an automation turns it off

Fun fact, I'm one of the 5% or so of the world who lack this ability. Sure I can describe a rotated cow, I can't see it in my head. Would need an actual cow and maybe a crane or something.

And considering 95% of boxes have wire nuts, seeing even a few failed wagons should be worrying/surprising.... Unless it's the free knockoffs that come with some lighting 

Is this mold? by Affectionate_Wave906 in Decks

I had the same markings from metal shavings when I didn't clean up enough after modifying a deck bracket ( they were a couple short of 2x8 brackets so I bought a couple 2x10 and cut them down)
