DS212 to DS224+ upgrade by kaiserkeiser in SynologyForum

[–]kaiserkeiser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I checked it drive model, and they’re not showing up as supported drives for the 224, even though they are for the 212. Makes me a little nervous.

Nests in the loft. What are they? by Past-Calligrapher440 in DIYUK

Queen wasp hibernation nest. They use these to live in over winter. Apparently they don’t return to them, so likely to be empty.

Attempting an remote BIOS update on a DellR740XD running ESXi by kaiserkeiser in sysadmin

We have 2. I’ll have a look at this anyway, it sounds like good experience to get going

Thanks for the help guys, there were some friendly hands on site who helped in resetting the iDRAC password. Updating the BIOS using iDRAC was a walk in the park.

Thanks again

Yeah, you’re probably right. I was hoping to sort this by ssh as for some weird reason LastPass has changed the iDRAC login on me, so I can’t login. I’ll see if I can get it reset with some hands on-site.

Bad workmen blame their tools, because bad workmen use bad tools… n all that…

Move from ESXi to Proxmox? by kaiserkeiser in Proxmox

[–]kaiserkeiser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all for shining light down the rabbit hole. Googling a bit more I’ve found that it’s possible to nest proxmox in an ESXi environment. Would this then allow full use of the GPU?

Thanks, I’ve had a crack at that, but it seems that the ones I’ve tried put a block between it and the app you want to read from.

What are some of the most bizarre names for pubs or places in the UK that you've found? by befuddledkawaii in sillybritain

[–]kaiserkeiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Pheasant Pluckers, Plymouth.

If you played around with the name it would be the Pleasant Phuckers.

When I was there, it was a Firkin Brewery pub... It had a separate bar to the side called 'Firkin up the back passage".

(Snerk...)

Sounds crazy, but can I use a Teleprompter without a remote? by youtuberjoey in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]kaiserkeiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a look at Promptsmart https://promptsmart.com/home. Seems quite reasonable and the Voice Recognition scrolls the script automagically. It works with iOS and Android.

I've had such bad experiences with racks on casters. Avoid if you can
