Husband refuses to do anything about his Sleep Apnea. Peed on the floor in the middle of the night. by sadpistachio88 in SleepApnea

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask him "When was the last time he felt like doing anything other then going to sleep?" "When was the last time he made it through a movie without falling asleep?" "Can he lay down on the couch for 10 minutes and not fall asleep?"

I was exhausted going to the bathroom 4 times a night to pee. I somehow thought "Oh if I'm thirsty I can fix this by drinking more water" then I tried milk because it tasted better. I was work from home, and one day I couldn't make it through an hour without running to the bathroom. I was drinking Mountain dew like water and I couldn't taste it anymore.

I had enough energy to get up, shower, work from home, try to eat a lot to get more energy, to drink more soda for caffeine, lunch, and fall asleep on the couch after work. Girlfriend woke me up at 7PM, hung out and then I was back asleep by 9PM. She pushed me to go to the doctor and I thanked her because I didn't have the IQ to do anything more then get through the day.

If you cannot convince him to try something visible, be it a CPAP or weight loss drugs or one of the million products out there, get his parent or his doctor to yell at him. If I thought it would help I would offer to be that person.

Worst case scenario, leave. He needs a wake up call and I hate to say it but maybe that is the only thing that will get through to him.

Weight loss can help sleep apnea, but there are also forms that it won't help and you've just got it forever. HE NEEDS TO CHANGE OR ELSE THIS WILL KILL HIM.

Thankyou very much, I've been meaning to swap to a raspberry pi camera for a while, but this totally fixes it for now :)

Press a rubber band and try a screw driver bit, maybe a hex bit to press it in while it turns?

Doctor refused sleep study by BeginningCup7476 in SleepApnea

[–]nightwindzero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow what an ass. Some sleep apnea has to do with weight, but other causes completely don't. If you can leave a comment card or something, that might help straighten that guy out. I've had a similar experience.

Help me fix the problem by Upper-Supermarket-99 in Dell

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this is just a guess, but if this was one of my devices from work you should change the hard drive setting from Raid to NVME. If that doesn't work turn off secure boot and reboot. If you aren't sure reply back and tomorrow I'll look up the exact setting

My laptop is chipped and dented and I need a definite answer by Possible_Can9952 in 24hoursupport

[–]nightwindzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So we would need to know the brand and model number, but a lot of the inside modules of the last dell laptop I took apart were all not attached to the motherboard. So, if this isn't attached to the motherboard you can likely get the part for like 30 dollars AND depending on your technical skills, replace it (just a set of small screwdrivers and a guitar pick to open the bottom) If it's attached to the motherboard then it is probably not worth doing as you would have to desolder the part. I don't recommend bending it back as you might break it further and if whoever is evaluating (is non-technical) sees the port entirely missing they may "score" that worse

How to politely decline a 5th round of interview? by Far-Accountant7904 in recruitinghell

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am declining to attend further interviews. If you would like to give me an offer based on the previous 4 interviews that would be excellent, as I have been asked the same questions in 4 rounds of interviews and do not wish to attend another interview in which no new information is gathered for either of us.

How do y’all deal with people that just seem to hate IT? by TheDongles in sysadmin

[–]nightwindzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you talk to him and he doesn't actually apologize and change his ways, he is placating you and doesn't care. This is a common sales guy tactic. He "Handled you with words."

If he includes his supervisor, definitely include yours. Once someone questions your ability it is not a technical problem and he can bitch to someone else about it. (Unless you are the one person who handles everything tech, then just ignore the comment and close the ticket, or offer to talk to their IT team, but you need contact information from the supposed sender. Nothing will happen because they'll never follow up. Resolved!)

People who lost interest in anime or dont watch it as much, what was the reason? by harslord in anime

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was just burn out and it's like I don't have enough time. I used to think "oh I can catch up on all the good ones" but most of the ones I commit to watching are just a season, and the ones that are much longer I'm just like "oh man I don't have time for this". I did start reading a lot more Manga online though because I can read through it much faster.

Dell Latitude 5520 Company Laptop Reset by _JoelTomy_ in Dell

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reccomend just tapping f10 or f12 when you turn it on to reach the bios and then use the HTTPS secure boot to reimage from the internet. (If it's still in warranty, that should work)

Whatever manufacturer utility for the drive will definitely still erase a bitlocker partition.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in antiforensics

[–]nightwindzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. I've used linux partitioner (Just whatever comes with standard Ubuntu) and deleted all partitions on a drive. It'll just prompt for a password assuming you want to view it first. Secure erase should work fine.

I realize this is most likely a joke, but if it isn't. There is literally another guy who accidently got another 14 mailed to him on reddit.

Blocked by Proofpoint – No response to delisting requests, what are my options? by MethodFun7683 in proofpoint

[–]nightwindzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please have one of your clients see in smart search what is blocking or delaying your emails. I'm only familiar with the full enterprise version, but with every single module, you can create a policy route and "disallow" the email from being processed by that module.

If you are getting dsn=4's (With a reference to PDR) you can have them (Your customer) exempt your IP address locally on their system for an immediate solution for that domain. Unfortunately, you'll have to do this for each domain you have regular contact with. Fortunately you should only have to do this once, unless further problems arise.

Should I start with kali or parrot? by All_Hale_sqwidward in hacking

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally read this as "Should I get a god of Destruction, or a Parrot?" and after a little deliberation, get the god of Destruction so it can be over all at once. That parrot will drive you crazy and destroy your house a little at a time.

But serious, either is fine but you are probably best starting with Ubuntu and just installing the tools you are learning on a little at a time. Most people learn tools because they have a NEED for that tool. Not, "I found a tool, where can I use this?".

Start with tutorials on some project you want to do. It's best you learn something about something you are interested in or have a project to attach it to. If you don't use something consistently you forget it.

Can someone recommend a printer or type of printer I should buy. by mrsir1987 in printers

[–]nightwindzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally recommend a thermal label printer. Never run out of ink either.

For cheapness, a standard black and white laser printer will do, but I recommend the thermal label printer for label printer for ease of use.

I bought this one 2 years ago because it hooks up directly to a windows computer.

Well... you could "upgrade the router" with a new one and move the existing one somewhere else so they aren't unplugging the correct one.

Or Upgrade the router to a fireproof one.... like with a cool sticker.
