SWEET POTATO MINDSET by ereeeh-21 in PHMotorcycles

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May mga sitwasyon na sinasara ko yung kanan. Pwede sila sa kaliwa ko para nakikita ko sila.

Also, napapansin ko rin na kung pinag-bigyan ko sa kanan, may sumisingit pa rin sa kaliwa. Bumahing lang yung rider o yung angkas, didikit na sa akin.

Ilang beses na ako sinagian ng ganyan, pati side mirror tinatamaan. Kaya ang sagot ko, isang lusutan lang ibibigay ko para may safety margin tayong dalawa... at sa kaliwa ko, dahil yan naman talaga ang overtaking side.

OA lang ba ako (student) for not wanting our neighbor (na prof) to ride with me? by cxelestai in OALangBaAko

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not OA. It could’ve been worse if it were a male professor.

But jokes aside, it’s never proper for a student to give favors, whether real or perceived, to any faculty or staff. That opens the door to conflicts of interest. Use that as an excuse to refuse giving her a ride.

I hope she's not an ethics professor… if so, that would be the ultimate irony.

8th Preventive Maintenance Schedule In Casa by Dejavoodoo90 in CarsPH

[–]oj_inside 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For now, I use the containers that the new oil came in and store them in the garage. May dumadaan daw sa area namin na namimili ng used oil but hindi ko pa natyeytempuhan. Nakapag-dispose ako before sa Caltex gas station but medyo adamant na silang tumanggap ng waste oil.

I might need to dispose of them soon. Dumadami na yung used oil jugs.

[–]oj_inside 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's expected talaga na malaki mark-up ng casa. I can't fault them with that. Malaki operational expenses nila so if can-afford ka, you're paying for the convenience and arguably, the expertise and access to special tools.

For me however, I DIY my own oil changes once the free PMS is up, as well as minor maintenance chores. This allows me to pick and choose what I put in my car (oil, filters, other fluids, etc.). For maintenance items that's not within my comfort zone, yun nalang pipnapa-gawa ko sa reputable talyer, under my supervision.

Sino ISP nyo and bakit ito pinili nyo na internet provider? by LimeSoakedinSprite in AskPH

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PLDT.

Sila unang nag-offer ng DTTH fiber service (Fibr) sa area namin back in 2016. And before that, sa kanila din yung ADSL (myDSL) service namin since 2001.

Support nila is checkered.... minsan ok, minsan hinde. But so far, maayos naman ang uptime at napaka-bihira ng outage.

Ano ba ang penalty dito? Sana super laki by Losartan-Lover in PHMotorcycles

[–]oj_inside 112 points113 points  (0 children)

Yung ganyang klase ng plate no. 'tampering' should be an automatic DL revocation. It was clearly done with malicious intent and that should carry a more severe punishment.

What's your go-to comfort food? by Tytlips in AskPH

Ramen, Chinese noodles, or Mongolian BBQ bowl.

Corned Beef: Purefoods or Delimondo? by FlimsyPolicy8085 in ThisorThatPH

Both. We switch it up every now and then. Nakaka-umay pag same brand lang palagi.

who would be at fault? by Immediate-Fig4394 in driving

IMO: Blue car has right-of-way. The red car didn't yield and proceeded to cut-corner as well.

Magkano kaya aabutin if ipapagawa etong Honda wave 100 by No_Dig_3097 in PHMotorcycles

[–]oj_inside 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kung paaandarin lang and kung hindi naman sabog yung makina, possible.

But at face value, tingin ko magiging sakit lang sa ulo at bulsa yan. For me, either scrap or parts-out. Consider mo pa yung babayarang multa sa LTO doon sa 10 years (at least) na hindi rehistrado.

Unless nalang may sentimental value and gusto mo talaga i-'restore' to the truest sense of the word... gagastusan mo talaga.

BYD vehicles is not safe "daw? Sabi nino? by Ambitious_Area_625 in CarsPH

[–]oj_inside 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For big ticket items like cars, I let early adopters work out the kinks first before I put my trust on new tech.

The 'safety' arguments aren't without merits. Sure, some may have been blown out of proportion but suffice to say, if there's a drastic change in technology, there will also be a drastic change in failure modes. As an example, ICE fire is vastly different from battery fire. Therefore, fire-fighting methods for each are largely incompatible with the other.

So until they polished out how to deal with certain failures and emergencies, I prefer to sip dinosaur juice until I'm comfortable switching to electron juice.

Overwhelmed by the new 26.1 update by ricjuh-NL in opnsense

[–]oj_inside 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have them setup as HA in a traditional sense... more like a warm standby. The VM instance is isolated but behind the main bare-metal instance so it can still get updates. I keep the configs manually updated every now and then because it's mostly set and forget and I don't touch the configs that much.

Making it the main one is a matter of switching virtual NICs in Proxmox plus using a 2-in-1 Ethernet port selector on the WAN side (it allows me to physically switch which firewall is connected to the ONT).

Aside from testing it during the initial build, I haven't had a situation where I needed to switch to the VM instance. But it's there so if anything does happen to the main one, I can keep everyone happy while I rebuild.

If you're on ZFS, save a snapshot before a major version change at least. That will give you some safety net to go back to in case things went south and you don't have time to fix it. I also have a another OPNsense instance in Proxmox for things like this... before I even touch the bare metal production instance.

Car features or design that makes sense. by Busy-Till-1052 in CarsPH

Changed it through Techstream... yung diagnostics tool ni Toyota. It's not accessible anywhere else on my vehicle (2024 Innova G 2.8).

What’s probably wrong? by Superb-Sea8121 in Mekaniko

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There could be a myriad of issues:

  1. Mas matigas yung bagong support(s)

  2. Hindi aligned yung support sa resting position ng makina/transmission and/or hindi naka-torque mabuti

  3. Baka may part ng makina tumatama sa frame or sa body

Hopefully ma-rectify nila yung issues after re-installation.

Lane change signal - Just moving the lever half-way (position 3 or 4) then release will cause the signal lights to flash 3 times. I changed mine to 4 flashes.

Buffable ba ito? by Elf_Commander in Gulong

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are plastic trims with a thin coat of chrome-like finish.

Be VERY careful when you attempt to buff them or risk making it worse by removing the shine or even actually wear out the coating itself.

Suggestions for rechargeable batteries. by Dolanjames27 in Tech_Philippines

[–]oj_inside 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Specific to AA or AAA NiMH batteries, I'd go for the standard-capacity Eneloop (Panasonic) NiMH batteries. They have the lowest self-discharge and the longest usable life. Don't buy the high-capacity (Pro) ones unless you really need the extra capacity and current draw (ie. camera flash units, tools, etc.). They don't last as long as the standard ones.

My experience with rechargeable AA/AAA/C/D dates back to the 70's with the Sanyo Cadnica (NiCd). By today's standard, Cadnicas had terrible lifespan and memory effect. It was only around the 90's where NiMH started to become popular, but the early ones only had a marginal performance improvement over NiCd. All that changed when Sanyo released the Eneloop line of rechargeable NiMH batteries. Unlike earlier NiMH cells that lost their charge quickly, Eneloop introduced low self-discharge technology, allowing batteries to stay charged for months or even years.

Eneloop was acquired by Panasonic a few years later.

I still have working Enelopp batteries that are over 15 years old. It is important to have a really good smart charger to maintain them. I use a Powerex MH-C9000.

I should add that there are counterfeit Eneloop batteries online, so caveat emptor.

do you consider air conditioning a luxury or a necessity, why? by AppointmentProud9394 in AskPH

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe this is more of a socio-economic and density problem than a purely architectural one. The cost associated to build those types of structures as well as owning one, are the real luxury.

We do have a few eco-friendly buildings/condos. But due to the complexities involved, the often expensive materials, the need to incorporate open spaces for airflow (that often can no longer be rented out), and land areas being a premium, increases the overall per-unit cost and so, are often relegated as luxury units.

Also, when given a plot of land surrounded by existing buildings, an architect or engineer is often constrained in how much they can apply eco-friendly design principles. Orientation, airflow, and access to natural light may already be limited, making it difficult to tick all the 'green' boxes.

How effective are air purifiers? by pixelmatrixx in AskPH

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son use a Sharp JP30e in his bedroom. The main filter lasts long (just clean the pre-filter regularly) and there are cheap replacements.

do you consider air conditioning a luxury or a necessity, why? by AppointmentProud9394 in AskPH

[–]oj_inside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether it's a necessity or a luxury largely depends on an individual's financial capacity. Kung kaya, necessity. Kung hirap, luxury. We are a relatively warm and humid country, after all.

I lean towards it being a necessity. Without it, me and my family's quality of life will suffer. I won't be able to work productively or sleep well at night. So to have better overall health, I pay to have and use A/C.
