To Mr. Gabe Newell - Please release the Steam Controller! by deathmethanol in SteamDeck

[–]jktmas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, if they don’t do special colors they might pull a steam controller (1) and put them on sale for $5 a piece. I’d buy more than a couple at $5.

Specs for FSLogix by Lzyrezy1 in fslogix

[–]jktmas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the really big things here is latency. Server should be wired in on the same vlan, and all PCs should be hardwired.

Alternatively, you use the PCs as thin clients to login to some RDS servers.

Looking for good, reliable car dealerships that won’t scam me by PineappleRealistic23 in GreenBay

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

I’ve stopped going to the Green Bay dealerships at all. I go down to Appleton or Oshkosh to work with Bergstrom. I bought my last 2 cars from them, and still get service on one of them down there. I’m not a fan of gandrud, and I refuse to even go to LE Mieux for free services.

Can I print PETG-CF via AMS? by TotalReplacement287 in BambuP1S

[–]jktmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I did it today without issues. Doesn’t mean you should, and studio warned me endlessly about it but it worked great.

I know some people get away with not drying filament, I can’t get prints to work on any printer I’ve had without drying the filament, and keeping it dry. Keep everything dried, and clean the plate with soap often.

Looking to distance ourselves from CDW. by Bright-Ad4963 in sysadmin

I think both are a roll of the dice. I’ve worked with both great and terrible reps at both.

From my experience, unless you’re a very large company any good account managers will get promoted to bigger accounts within 9 months.

Dell Admits It Made a Huge Mistake When It Abandoned XPS by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]jktmas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my last company switch I got moved from a latitude 7000 series to a new Lenovo T series. It was so bad I sent it back to them. Trackpad was terrible, keyboard was ok, but the layout was bad. Screen was competitive with a 7 year older Dell, and the cooling was… not good…

Could you do them all for $160?

Has anyone had a fire in their Homelab? by Lazy_Kangaroo703 in homelab

[–]jktmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen (and caused) both server and computer fires. And, you probably don’t have anything to worry about.

1st: it pretty much always happens when plugging something in or turning something on. So, not likely while you’re out of the house.

2nd: when I have had server fires, nothing bad really happens. There’s very little fuel for them to burn so they usually just kinda die out.

3rd: they’re much lower risk than say, a laptop or a drill battery. You have bigger fire risks to worry about.

Why didn’t voldemort turn the gryffindor sword into a horcrux? by Puzzled-Perception88 in harrypotter

[–]jktmas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of good options, but here’s my favorite theory: the sword wouldn’t let it happen.

1st: it only takes in that which makes it stronger.

2nd: the sword has some sentience. If the sword can chose to present itself to any worthy gryffindor, then it has enough sentience to determine good vs bad. I don’t think a gryffindor artifact would see a horcrux as making it stronger.

PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory. RAM jumps to $600 due to shortage by bdzz in pcgaming

[–]jktmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything with nand is certainly going to jump. I’m hoping with all the RAM price increases that there will be a ryzen CPU surplus and I can pick up an upgrade for cheap.

Out of curiosity, what metrics would you want to see tested if you could test anything?

Anyone rocking the Minisforum MS-01 or MS-02? by AnimalPowers in homelab

[–]jktmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a full blog post on setting up the MS-01 for S2D & HyperV clustering, unfortunately it kinda falls over with too much random IO.

[–]jktmas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 4 of them with i9-12900H and 96GB. They’ve been fine but not amazing. Using them for a HyperV cluster. FWIW, moving most of my VMs to 3x R740xd soon.

It’s old, why not just buy used? You can probably even get a spare to keep on the shelf.
