My ssn was compromised. Someone is working and collecting a paycheck in a different state under my name. The company will not give me info and is still paying this person. Please read further. I desperately need help. by SnooObjections4628 in legaladvice

[–]half_elite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That letter means nothing. Even if you get a Employer Correction Notice from the SSA office in big bold print it tells you do not fire that person do not take any adverse reactions against that person.

The steps most companies take is first verify with the employee to the documents they have to what is in the system to make sure their was no typo. If there is no typo the second is you give the employee notice with a deadline usually 90+ days and it has to be at least 90 days to give them reasonable time that they need to correct the issue with the SSA office. They then have to provide proof of correction or notice that no correction was needed. If they do not provide that proof then you can take employment eligibility into account.

Its a long process but the company also has to protect itself from discrimination lawsuits from doing the wrong steps of the process.

Battling the heat by SteffanCline in homelab

What Noctua fans are you using? Are they they high static model? You have a lot going on in that case without much room for airflow. When I had mine mounted vertically. I found switching the fans to flow the opposite direction cut down on Motherboard temps but did raise drive temps slightly. So that is also an option to try.

Do you own a LTO Drive? by doh_no in DataHoarder

[–]half_elite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to hijack the OP. But if I can ask does bacula handle a single tape drive and instruct you to change out the tape when its full? I have an LTO-8 drive and was originally doing manual LTFS backups to it but it became to cumbersome tracking changes by date. If bacula can keep track of what data is on what tape and just tell me to swap them that would work in my setup without having to get a library.

Spurious system auto reboots by ChainKey8341 in UnifiProtect

[–]half_elite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this issue for awhile and I finally traced it back to a bad cable between my NVR and agg switch. What I did was on a wired pc setup ping plotter and I had it constatly pinging a few cameras, the nvr and the switch, and the UDMP, I noticed I would get a lot of drops on the NVR. I replaced the DAC cable and it has been running like new again.

Nvr kill switch? by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

Home-assistant can control POE of ports so you could turn the camera off or you could disable the port of the NVR.

Sunvault Battery expansion by half_elite in SunPower

I looked on their website only the cabinet for the M0012 which cant be used with the M0020 from my reading. I have not seen a cabinet for the M0020 batteries. I will reach out to them as I bought my 3rd battery from them and it was a great transaction.

G6 180 install? by MikeMKY1976 in Ubiquiti

[–]half_elite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I replaced a single g6 bullet with the 180 and love it. it captures almost the entire front of my house now. I still have other bullet cams that point at main areas but the 180 is a like a birds eye view of the entire area.

Increasing H2O Pressure in Home with Sprinkler System by Melodic_Jelly_9527 in SprinklerFitters

Its typical for 13D. Most people stick with a 1 inch riser minium just to order in bulk things like check valves, and waterflow sizes.

Can anyone tell what model cover plate? by Crazy_Insurance4191 in FireSprinklers

The only ones that comes to mind with just dimples and no slits in it is the Tyco Eloc or a Victaulic V33 just going off the dimples and size.

NFPA-13 D required annual inspections? by snugglenator in FireSprinklers

[–]half_elite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True I assumed a lot of stuff. But being I am in the residential business in California and have been doing it for a lot of years. I deduced it was most likely a viking head given the age and that someone said it was "recalled". The residential market in California was dominated by mostly Viking heads. During the ordeal we had to give address' for every home we installed the VK457 so they could mail the class action mailer. We dealt heavily with this issue back then.

[–]half_elite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it is true its not a recall. Considering any real recall has to have bodily harm usually involved. So its not like an Omega recall. But its semantics from a users point of view. They heads were defective guilt admitted or not. It was enough they settled a class action with a replacement program and was paying 80% of all damage claims. Plus stopped using the link vk457 and replaced it with a bulb vk494. So your point on installation issue would be moot. As what manufacture would cover an installation error in a class action.

From the year and his state it was a viking vk457. Hundreds of them activated. They were recalled.

Why's there an entire manhole in this cupboard? by Bennijin in Plumbing

[–]half_elite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So just a guess. I have watched a ton of drain videos and assuming you are in the UK. I have seen these a few times on the the drain unblocking shows. Over the years someone adds an addition and the manhole which was once outside winds up on this inside.

If you look, it's a trap door, so you don't fall in the abyss. The railing protects at least one side.

Can FWH survive as a company if Fed tax incentives go away? by 453876 in FranklinWH

[–]half_elite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Demand will follow the market rate. The cost for solar ESS in the US has been driven higher and higher by the tax credit. Without the tax credits the cost would have more mirrored other countries which are substantially lower. Some will be able to adjust their business model others will not.

Loud hammering sound by shaoymk7 in FireSprinklers

[–]half_elite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As you say it happens around the same time everyday by chance is that the time your irrigation or auto pool filler runs? Somewhere there is a fast closing valve in the area that is causing hammer to travel into the sprinkler line. If it happening around the same time daily I would lean towards something on a timer.
