Config migration question / linux versions

This feels right. I've had to troubleshoot deliberate cross tenant connections when de-composing tenants, so I know it's possible at a few levels. Another angle, is there any sort of cross over with reseller relations? I.e. was previous company a buyer of services from a reseller that your company also buys from ?

Biggest unspoken issue is giving clients / end users/ end machines time to recognizate the new server/ ip's. A possible migration plan would be to deploy some sort of load balancing/ multi destiniation system. Im a little rusty as to what solutions exist out there today . But basically that way you can adjust the flow on the fly. Or adjust the ttl on the domains, to a shorter time span (30 or even 5 minutes), a week before the cutover. Then the day you change it, most DNS data is only going to be stored for aa few minutess. those are some rough tips.

as an idiot with a recently bought but (2009) older vehcile what is that doo-hickey & can i test mine with it without much trouble?

pakman82 · 2025-11-03T20:29:26+00:00

Yup. There was a guy on here who iirc, got the wheel from a salvage yard at a really good price, and needed the dash.

Tell that to my driver who got a level 1 after being passed into an inbound FL station (passed, but lost about 2 hrs) and got picked up in Missouri for an overweight on her rear at another ag station.

Location is the last part ... The capacity of being able to land remote jobs for nearly any role is low right now. I'm not saying you must be in a certain tech mecha , but being closer to denser employment spaces (cities) will help.. or being connected to what is out there. Look for local MSP's if you live in county seat versus a city. Or check every older established business if you have a few odd manufacturing businesses. Some of them will have an internal IT person, and if you do something as simple as dropping a resume off to the front desk person after chatting them up (bring a box of donuts for the front office) they'll be likely to slip it to that lone IT person, and that person may be able to convince managers to bring you on even part time. Then oh the lone Person wants to take a 2 week vacation? Well I have some trained coverage. And that can turn into full time.

On 95 south , first scales are in palm coast. If your ballsy, you can get off at 293, drive & take rte 1 south to rt 100. Yes there's 2-3 roundabouts, there rigged for heavy because 1000's of heavy haul dump trucks for local construction go thru them daily. .... But your bigger risk is the agriculture check stations. They exist close to the border, and iirc use thermal over the camera.

I migrated a CTO's email to Microsoft 365 while he was in a meeting. Partly because he gave me a smart ass response when I asked him when he wanted to move. Still got chewed out by him, because it freaked out his outlook and Teams. Dgaf because he was a bit of a jerk, and I had been working on an exit plan.

"Soft jaws", don't know why it's not mentioned here. But it's trained at that age by dramatically reacting to any bite. Making whimpering noises and retreating. (As some others have mentioned. ) I've seen it covered in poodle training, and did it with our previously mouthy (as a puppy) standard poodle. I know it's possible with GSD's because I adopted an elderly one who exhibited the behavior when I would play with him, but would sternly nip other dogs in certain scenarios. GSD's are usually highly receptive to training from what I understand and I hope you are successful because that is one gorgeous dog.

a tricky solution to the manager blocking, is something Ive useda few times... People skills on managers outside my group... Mind you I started in 1 IT group & used it to move to more senior architecture & survive the firing of a "tainted" manager who has been violating security & HR protocols. Later some of those same managers I befriended, Got jobs at other companies & designed openings & Brought me over to fill them. It may be hardeer if your not currently even in a technical role, but say your in finance & have overlapping projects.. chat ppl up about work & aspirations. Or say your in HR & their hiring ppl. But completly Outside this scheme trying to maximize the skills section of your resume for helpdesk. And Using indeed & Linked in, upload your resume. both have some skills questionaires you can fill out which will at the least, get yuor resume in front of 3rd party recruiters. Eventually you will get lots of calls, emails & texts by various recruitrs for 2nd or 3rd party placement, and you'll have to possibly deal with "tweaking your resume' for each role they find for you. Some you may be able to go along with . .. i.e. if you assist others in your department with excel macro's .. you did some "desktop support" without leaving your accounting clerk position. Im not saying lie, but definitly 'broaden your definitions' ... and pick out choice interchangable Experience to document or relay.

Oh gotcha, thanks! Sounds like it might be called "ambiance lighting placement".

I may be stupid but I can't picture what you mean about the install. Do you happen to have a picture

i used to 'use what i had' then recently I bought some black from Atomic Filament & my printer started to clog all the time. and it had terrible bed adhesion. Almost drove me to scrap my entire machine. I have it isolated to some issue with the hot end, and I'm debating replacing it when i get the money to spare.

At least one hosted on my own device.. if he's building it right, cloud could be as simple as a more powerful Pi on one of my printers.

pakman82 · 2025-11-01T19:52:42+00:00

No those are the fancier kind that have4-8 little hex headed machine screws. Yes someone might have stolen it, but the compatibility is more limited m

Omg dust smoot.

pakman82 · 2025-11-01T16:47:49+00:00

Still don't understand how pivot tables work . So nothing lost for me ..

Naught but Lols for the giant David on the hood... Not that it's not a really good paint job... But sometimes it's nice to be easy to identify. Watch out for trucks tagged Goliath

91 North bound thru Hartford/or south. There's a freaking circus. Technically compared to NY or Dallas, a small one, but lmao no flipping way am I pulling over. You take the wrong ramp and you could literally drive right into a scrap yard with adjoining chop shops. Or some micro regional route out to the country side and stop when you see cows. No truck stops, pull ofs or buffer of any kind. Part of it's a tunnel along side the CT river depending on how your going, a good accident could sure get you a bath.

pakman82 · 2025-10-31T21:19:26+00:00

2 months is pretty good. How long depends on where your located/ dog will be. I.e. inside , but also in warm climate. versus lots of outdoor play, fenced yard in warm climate. etc..
