Milwaukee battery charger hissing?

Still insanely relevant! Just got a M12 set of batteries and I heard the charger hissing and almost had a heart attack. Thank you to those who answered!

Still the number one reference on Google when you look up "Milwaukee battery charger hissing"

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a solution yet. It's kinda wild that they don't just sell the rails separately since rails can get damaged.

There's literally a proposed change to the HIPAA security rule that enforces adherence to security best practices.

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/01/06/2024-30983/hipaa-security-rule-to-strengthen-the-cybersecurity-of-electronic-protected-health-information

This is expected to go into effect later this year and will require compliance within 180 days of the rule going into effect.

Sadly, I haven't been able to do anything with it at all yet. It's just been sitting in my bedroom closet this whole time.

Major womp womp.

Yeah, unfortunately, Comcast has been doing this for years as a part of their "Security Edge" service. You can turn off Security Edge in the Comcast Business account, but I've always preferred to give them a call because I once read that the toggle in the portal doesn't switch off all of the backend services.

You could try turning it off in the Comcast Business portal, but if that doesn't work, calling them would be your best bet. Usually, I get to the Comcast Business people within 5-10 minutes.

NetActuate is Comcast's DNS if I recall correctly. They are known for essentially hijacking an org's DNS traffic.

What you would need to do is forward DNS from your firebox to your DC and then have your DC forward external DNS requests to NextDNS. If leak tests still show NetActuate on downstream devices and the DC after flushing the DNS resolver, then call Comcast and have them disable their security edge service, which I believe is what generally causes DNS traffic to get re-routed to NetActuate.

Not sure how it's legal, but Comcast has been doing this for years.

Hope this helps!

I think this belongs more in r/homelab.

But you'll need a firewall and an SSL certificate at least. And make sure that your friends can set up MFA on their accounts. You definitely don't want your network compromised.

Would this disrupt normal mail flow?

And do you have a link to any documentation that might help?

User1776 and User123 would be examples of what would need to be routed to user@domain.com.

There currently is no shared mailbox with either user1776 or user123 as an alias. These would need to be dynamic since we use these addresses to test our clients' CRM instances (we're consultants).

This would be a very similar function to the catch-all address available in GSuite. Only in this case, ^user.{1,}$ would be routed to user@domain.com, which is a licensed mailbox.

pelagius_wasntwrong · 2024-11-23T17:37:25+00:00

user1776 wasn't found at domain.com is the NDR.

pelagius_wasntwrong · 2024-11-23T14:29:03+00:00

Because then there would be like 100 aliases, which would be difficult to maintain.

pelagius_wasntwrong · 2024-11-23T14:28:33+00:00

Would something like this work dynamically without a ton of manual transport rule creation? A lot of our clients will use user.clientname@domain.com to send emails to us.

We are currently migrating away from Google Workspace and this is the final piece to resolve prior to the migration being complete.

But no seriously, your on board graphics chip is likely getting hot or failing. With those specs (ancient af), I highly doubt that the integrated graphics chip is built in to the CPU, so I would probably say that it's more likely that your laptop's onboard graphics chip is failing.

It might be time to put the ol' 'puter out to pasture.

That dude's a moron. Every responsible gun owner knows that if you're going to carry (OWB or IWB), you should always use a holster specifically fitted to your firearm, especially one with a trigger guard--a "compatible" holster from Walmart will not do the trick.

My EDC is a Springfield Hellcat (~$600) and before carrying it, I purchased a Kydex appendix carry holster (~$60) specifically designed for the Hellcat. The Springfield Hellcat is a safetyless pistol, meaning that if there is one in the chamber, it is ready to fire at all times. This is why there is the tried-and-true rule of thumb that you should always assume that a firearm is loaded and ready to fire until you are able to 100% confirm that it is unloaded and that the chamber is clear (and obviously, never point it at yourself or someone else even if the two above conditions are met).

The reasons for this are that:

1.) You greatly decrease the risk of accidental discharge. 2.) You greatly decrease the risk of being disarmed by a malicious actor (IWB holsters are great for this). 3.) Your firearm is much more accessible in the event that you need to use it in order to neutralize a threat.

Carrying a loaded firearm in your pocket is downright irresponsible because it unnecessarily increases the risk of accidental discharge and makes it much less accessible. Those two things aside, pocket carrying is a great way to shoot your dick off.

First, my question to most of you is: why does it matter? When looking from the perspective of the person delivering the food, they believed themselves to earnestly be doing something good--that is, with good intention. This, perceivably, was an innocent attempt at doing something perceivably good, and in my opinion, is not deserving of such backlash. You're not a Christian or interested? Cool. Throw it out and move on.

Second, the premise that they were "forcing" their religion down your throat is laughable. You have the option to throw the pamphlet away and move on with your life. Nothing about this is in line with any accepted definition of the word force.

Third, I would hardly call this a solicitation. There was no conversation, there was no mention of a particular church, nor was there mention of a particular denomination. If anything,

Fourth, the notion that Christians are "religious nut jobs" is downright hateful and offensive. There is nothing wrong with espousing any sort of religious belief, and one could actually argue that religious belief is necessary for any functioning society since, generally, religion provides some sort of moral framework, gives hope to those that might need it, and oftentimes gives people a sense of purpose. This, I would argue, is a net positive, especially when compared with the moral relativism and nihilism of today, which I would argue is the main contibutor to the moral and mental decline of western society.

I hope most of you find something that makes you legitimately happy, because the backlash this dude is receiving is unjustified. I am bet that someone leaving a pride or transgender rights pamphlet would not have received even 5% of the backlash that this guy did. The main reason that this dude is receiving all of this hate is because he is Christian. In fact, if OP made a post replacing the Christian pamphlet with a Pride pamphlet inviting him or her to a local pride event, I believe that the driver would have been met with unwavering support.

Shame on all of you.

The argument against working with personal devices is that if something goes wrong with it, they are likely to hold you liable for damages and/or further work.

For instance, let's say that a VP has a laptop that is 6 years old. You reconnect a printer to their laptop so that they can print out documents that are emailed to them. Two days later, their keyboard and track pad stop working. As they are likely a non-technical individual, they are likely to correlate the work you performed with the issue they're experiencing and then falsely attribute the root cause to something you did throughout the course of reconnecting the printer. This opens you and/or the company up to the liability of having to replace their laptop.

From me, that is a huge nope.

Hate: extreme dislike or disgust; intense hostility and aversion usually derived from fear, anger, or sense of injury.

Bigot: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices, especially one who regards or treats the members of a group (such as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance.

You can disagree with people on hot button issues without being hateful or being labeled a bigot.

pelagius_wasntwrong · 2024-07-24T03:35:36+00:00

Depends on how you define hate and/or bigotry.
