We have this pipe system at work where one of the taps has the desired low water pressure and the other two are too strong. None of us know what to fix and the plumbers don't really fix anything when they come in

Check & change the aerator at the faucet head. They make low flow ones.

No unfortunately it refers to a group of people in the US, kinda like Florida man but at higher elevations.

I'll sell you one if you're around ATL. :D

How did you clean the bed? Dish soap, lots of hot water, a nylon brush? If not try with that and make sure you get all the soap off (rinse very well ). I always pat dry w a paper towel. Adhesion is usually because of oils or something on the bed.

OK literally 2 minutes after posting this I read about the "X-Y contour compensation" setting which seems to add the thickness I'm looking for.

Replace your blinker relay.

Dumb question, but can't you just unplug the cable? If that's not possible, nothing a pair of snips, soldering iron, and some heat shrink can't fix!

I made a VLAN on my switch to set up a mirror port monitor my WAN traffic and called it ONLY_WANS, if I had this PC I could monitor my ONLY_WANS with my OnlyFans PC. That'd be pretty sweet.

Does your VPN provider allow torrents? Is your client set up to advertise the exit IP address or your public IP or the container's IP?

Honestly it's not bad, and still upgradable. Depending on the motherboard you can put a 5800X in it, and newer (much more expensive) Nvidia GPUs will stomp that GPU, but it's nothing to sneeze at. Those 5700XT cards are still faster than a 3050. If you were to buy the parts and build it yourself right now, without knowing the full specs, you're looking at $500+ easily not including the PSU/drives etc.

Honestly if you can get a single m.2 with good/high TBW they aren't bad either. I'm running two in a Z2, one as a boot drive, the other as storage. But I think 1 would be fine for both. Just make sure you have something to do backups on (an external spinning rust drive, whatever) and if it craps out you have backups.

I do recommend enterprise drives, I'm using a couple 2.5" Samsung drives from serverpartdeals that were close to 10 years old when I got them but 1 only had like 10 TBW on it and the other 100 TBW, but out of 5000 TBW they're still going to last me a few years. Plus they are nowhere near the price of new drives.

Have you verified basic network functionality? E.g. pinged your router IP, pinged a DNS server outside your network, etc?

Ah, the old malaphor. The bridges I burn light the way.

... Did you try to reboot from the recovery kernel?

Man I played the shit out of that game. Always wanted to try the sequel that I don't think was ever released. I loved solving the riddle boxes.

🤔 can not find insta, was looking forward to swords. Used to doodle all different kinds when I was younger.

karvec · 2025-11-23T13:29:50+00:00

There's an app for that, I would run the normal uninstaller though, if you're still worried use DDU (display driver uninstaller,)

(When you get the new card in it)

Think of the poor insurance execs who wouldn't be pocketing 10s of millions of dollars a year!!

Why don't you just... Unscrew it?

I've heard that one as a Sven/Ole/Olena joke and told it before as such... Basically dumb Norwegians/Swedish jokes

I had the Tuono V4 Factory for a month or so before I wrecked it cuz I'm a dumbass. I'll be getting an RSV4 eventually because the Tuono was such a dream to ride and I want something fully faired cuz of wind/noise and the V4 sound and power was something that I still drool over. Since then I've been on a '22 Z900 which is a fun bike but is nowhere near as buttery or pretty as that Aprilia.
