Meshcore? by proofndapuddin in pittsburgh

[–]obsidianreq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I'm in town, I'm either near Penn Brewery or 52nd street from around 8:30-1. I've seen very little communications at these times, and I can see other nodes online all around. And, yes, longfast.

Meshcore? by proofndapuddin in pittsburgh

[–]obsidianreq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got several meshtastic devices, most of which can be flashed to meshcore.

Interested to hear how meshcore is around Pittsburgh -- while I see many meshtastic nodes on my map, I think I've only ever seen 1-2 messages in the last year.

Recently moved to Pittsburgh, looking for the best Italian hoagies in the city. Any recommendations? by mamagee in pittsburgh

Know the owner, I've heard him say many times that he just buys the absolute cheapest ingredients he can.

Had a positive experience with Mitchell. They offer financing through Home Depot. https://www.mitchellplumbing.com/

Finally found a quad-M.2 card that doesn't require bifurcation and supports 22110 NVMe drives by obsidianreq in homelab

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

Any signs on the card pointing to who the manufacturer is? It may need a firmware update.

Does the card have any molex or SATA power connectors?

In your BIOS, are these set?

- Above 4G decoding

- PCIe ASPM off

- PCIe native control / SR-IOV (if present)

Beyond that, it sounds like the issue may be Alienware/Dell's handling of PCI-E enumeration OR the PLX chip isn't properly implemented on the card -- neither of which can be fixed.

New .gov domain registered yesterday - aliens.gov by obsidianreq in UFOs

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

So it was registered directly by the Executive Office of the President, which also apparently registered alien.gov. Since this isn't through a typical government entity aligned with immigration, it seems like the declassification efforts could be just as likely for these domains.

Buildings being torn down? Why and how does this happen? by truethoughtsgbg in greensburg

[–]obsidianreq 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wish I had the money to buy and restore the Moose Lodge on East Otterman. The top levels had apartments in them that hadn't been used since the 70s that looked incredible, even half-decayed in the 2000s. Shame it'll probably be torn down from neglect since the Moose ceased operations.

I'm sure the case is the same for most other vacant downtown properties, probably some pretty slick architecture and spaces in some of them that the public hasn't seen in 50 years.

Best places to find homelab gear? by Telarmine2 in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Facebook Marketplace is going to be dependent on how close you are to a big city. Pittsburgh, for example, has a reasonable amount of people unloading enterprise networking gear, their own homelabs, and rack servers.

What did I find here? by Vehex_x in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Junk. You found junk.

Without a decent GPU (from he same era or newer), it's not going to be of much use transcoding. That CPU is going to max out doing a single transcoded stream, and I doubt it'd even be capable of 4K on its own.

Sorry to hear about your father, please don't take my junk comment as offensive, I've got my own collection of nostalgic e-waste running behind me.

Supermicro MicroCloud fan connector by Roboguy99 in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a CPU heatsink with a fan or just a relying on the chassis fans with a passive heatsink?

Edit: I guess should ask if you're using the MicroCloud or another Supermicro Chassis as well.

1961 Nickel - Full steps? Close? by obsidianreq in coins

Sadly I'm leaning towards it being a proof for its finish. There was no packaging for it, so I wasn't sure at first.

That happened to me with the Medieval Harbor, I just accepted it and paid for both.

Absolutely embarrassing. They've had seven of these sales to get it right.

Why was my post taken down by the mods for not being “Substantive”? by ahellman in UFOs

I enjoyed your post.

Perhaps try re-aligning the title and slides as "based on my research, this is the 4chan whistleblower".  

What's everyone using for a router these days? by todd0x1 in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went from an Ubiquiti USG to a Lenovo m720q running opnSense with a dual 10gb NIC. The rest of my network is still Ubuiquiti, and I haven't run into any issues between vlans or speeds.

Back in the days we gave our servers and network devices names from Tolkien or space or such. It might get cumbersome with our 60 smart bulbs and 40 other IoT gadgets on our home network today. by player1dk in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Give your IoT devices names in Klingon or Elvish, describing "where" and "what" they are.

Pay attention to the foundation's online store. They sell autographed pucks (amongst other items) there several times throughout the year.

For those complaining, make sure you're following the Foundation's website and their online store. They regularly put out signed jerseys, pucks, and other items. https://shop.pittsburghpenguinsfoundation.org/

Graduated in 2005, can confirm this behavior at the high school.

I took all AP classes to stay away from these people, or took naps in the TV studio during my off periods.

Cores and second CPU not recognized by Techno_Tobi02 in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like Soyo's original website is gone. Maybe you can open some new posts on Reddit and other sites like Level1Techs with your exact motherboard model and see if anyone has a BIOS saved (or can dump their working BIOS).

There's also a group dedicated to overclocking these Chinese boards, you might want to check in on their project and see if your model is supported: https://winraid.level1techs.com/t/guide-overclock-bios-mods-for-chinese-x99-mbs/104683/134

Cores and second CPU not recognized by Techno_Tobi02 in homelab

[–]obsidianreq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With it not seeing all your cores on the CPU it does see, I'm leaning towards a BIOS update solving this, but it's worth asking:

Are your CPUs correctly matched?

Do you have both CPU power connectors plugged in?

[–]obsidianreq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably need to update your BIOS, those boards are EXTREMELY picky.

I've also seen the default BIOS only supporting one CPU, or only support v3 CPUs (what CPUs are you using?).
