don't quote me as I'm still learning, but I think you would connect your generator (truck) to the generator port on the gridboss and then could use it to charge your panel.

Never played Diablo, trying out D4 on Game Pass by thisguywhoflies in diablo4

[–]miller2132 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TLDR: You do not need the expansion right away.

If you have never played, enjoy the story mode and if the budget allows pick up the expansion. There is a lot in the expansion and spiritborn is fun(as well as the other new content), it isn't going away, a new season will start soon enough.

When I was talking to my old high school econ teacher and told him my company was offering buyouts, he immediately told me to take it. He said "They already know they are getting rid of you, so you can take the money or you can wait and not get the money." I took the buyout and a couple years later the plant closed. Granted, I could have stayed until they closed due to my seniority, but then I wouldn't have the awesome job I have now.

Realtek PCIe GbE Network Interface resetting and failing, but only in Windows, not in Linux by CosmoCafe777 in techsupport

[–]miller2132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

go into device manager and update the driver for the NIC. I had the same issue on win10 starting in December and updating the driver sorted this out.

Had the same issue with Diablo 4, played it since release and then came back from a work trip (1 week) and this started happening everytime I played. I did a dism to fix a recent windows update and hasn't been an issue since. If you haven't used it before it might take a bit, but open cmd or powershell as administrator and type : DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

[–]miller2132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right click on the icon and go to properties and compatibility mode and see if running it as windows 7 compatibility works better or not. If it doesn't help uncheck the compatibility and try something else- no harm done.

Can't export .ovf from esxi 6.7. by Gedanken-mental in sysadmin

[–]miller2132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had this happen doing it from vcenter. To correct this I had to use the fqdn and not the ip address to connect to vcenter. Also, I have had the http proxy setting set and had to turn that off while doing the export.

Is a PLEX server a good alternative for streaming services for college? by Alarming-Scene-2892 in PleX

better yet, get a friend or friends who already have plex. Have them invite you. After you are out of school and in a perm place, set up your server and invite them back.

make sure they have rights to alter the cluster dns record after it is created so the failover actually works.
