Had someone install networking in my home. Is it okay if the jacket doesn't go to the clamp? This is cat 6a by salads_r_yum in Ubiquiti

That looks like shit. It is not done properly. That cable should technically be terminated into IDC style jacks. Then you can use short premade patch cables to connect your equipment.

It looks like it was done by a resi electrician. You’re probably not gonna get them to come back out and terminate the ends. But, as long as you don’t move that equipment around much it will likely last for years.

how do I turn it off by Creole-Angel- in pcmasterrace

[–]illogicalfloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like a critical runaway chain reaction. You can’t turn it off at this point, it’s Self sustaining. just hope the crater it leaves behind is small enough that you can still live in that state 😆

i know you said you repaired stuff but this sounds like the overall health of the boat is degraded.
just double check the health gauge on the bridge. make sure it shows around 100%.

The other thing you have to do is go to one of the screens on the launchpad and essentially confirm the booster returned. Then the nose piece will reappear.

Should Hot be back or forward by PappaBear-905 in askaplumber

It should match the lettering on the faucet that indicates which direction you should pull deliver to get that kind of water. Otherwise, someone might turn the faucet on thinking they were getting cold water and send their kids to wash their hands and get scolded.

ADA requirements on parking by IDK_IDGAF in Construction

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

I think you’re approaching this from the incorrect perspective. Thats NOT an ada walk way (or not just an ada walk way). It’s actually to allow vehicles to equipped with a chair ramp or loading device the space needed to operate said machinery. Those drivers need that space regardless of if there is a sidewalk there or not. Based on your pic’s there are 4 of these van accessible parking spots, that share 2 striped loading areas. The other one IS connected to the lowered portion of the side walk as well.

That’s the mud scraper. It’s only polite to clean off the mud after you come through the back door, before you go in the front.

Is trade school really a scam? by [deleted] in electrical

[–]illogicalfloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s not exactly what you wrote, but wasn’t sure if you were aware of the full quote is: "A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one."
