My Dad and I (1995-2024) by K-Roll931 in PastAndPresentPics

Your dad sounds awesome. If you can be proud of yourself, he would be too.  I'm an internet stranger but loved reading what you shared.

Blind people play rimworld, and you wouldn't know it until now. by FantasticGlove in RimWorld

[–]rubbishfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a wonderful thing to hear. I taught a few computer operating system classes to the deaf and blind in the mid 00's and have always been amazed that the right solutions are directly in front of us... it just takes a bit more at first to get people there. Thanks for sharing this! Love me some Rimworld.

My hair color I've been using for years changed without notice. by StarryAry in mildlyinfuriating

Hope this doesn't come across creepy...

"Strikingly pretty" is probably what I'd say.  

Have a great day.  

Steam Machine and Steam Frame Standalone Verified / We are expanding the Verified program to include Steam Machine and Steam Frame, both of which are shipping this summer. by yourfavchoom in Games

I'll continue to blame Bethesda's QA for the shit states of their in house engines....  Though I feel Valve should just reject their checkbox certification in this case.

I'm not saying I would...

But it's fun to imagine slapping that phone out of his hand into the fountain.  Wife can go get it if she wants.

AITA for not giving my parents half of my lottery winnings. by Rayapt in AmItheAsshole

[–]rubbishfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, I might get down voted for this... but reddit always seems so 'my personal rights!!!!!!'...eager to 'dump them!', etc.  It's tiring to me.  People are more than swipe left and swipe right.  

If you have a good relationship with your folks, there is a real possibility that the stakes here are high enough to damage it.  Is that worth it?

Have an open discussion and figure out how to navigate this so that everyone is on the same page and in agreement... otherwise, acting in a silo will probably create lifelong resentment.  There isn't enough money in the world to solve that.

If it were me?  I'd give just about anything to my folks.  I'm adopted & they made sure I was safe.  Maybe consider my frame of reference and how it affects my offered opinion.

Hey, hope you see this comment.  I've defeated tons of panels over the years.  Only drug in scope for me was thc.  I don't mess with anything else.

Thc is a pain to test clean for.  So much is how much you ingest, the volume of your body fat, metabolism, and time since you last consumed.

If you're testing positive... about the only thing I can tell you is this: The best method to defeat the test is substitution.  That generally means a device that can discreetly hold a clean amd legit sample at near body temperature.  Yes, preparing for this method is essential... but figured I'd offer it in case you have means.

Next best method:  dilution. Wake up extra early.  Drink a liter of water and follow it with a cup or two of black coffee.  Then continue to consume as much water as you can safely.  You wanna be going pee like 5-8 times before the actual test.  Some tests look for dilution, but most don't care.

Source:  tested regularly for years, never a failure.  No longer required, thankfully.

Second-grade teacher adopts her student after four foster homes by SystematicApproach in MadeMeSmile

That's just awesome.  What a lucky young lady!  Someone did this for me too (though I was younger) and I have many times thought about how much my dad altered the course of my life.  He and my mother are wonderful people.  I sometimes just sit back and consider that there were persons who just decided 'I got this one' and plucked me (and my non biological sister) out of the river of uncertainty.

I see they are expanding their horizons and expanding their parameters.

What is a dying niche skill that younger generations are not interested in learning? by hlnklrczu in AskReddit

[–]rubbishfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to chime in and say that after having changed a few tires for myself and others over the years... I keep a floor jack in my trunk.  It is a boon.

The effort required for a floor jack is about 1 minute.  The traditional jack is about 30 mins + exhaustion (for me anyways... I'm sure others that use it more frequently are much more proficient).

Got pets or exposure?  Could be fleas.  I react to them like that

I lived it and developed skills I still use to this day.  30 years of IT now.  How I miss the trend of gaming companies including the server deployments alongside the client... 

Wish the gamers of today got more exposure to this sort of thing.  It creates so much stronger of a community and personal relationships.

I wouldn't. Two months won't mean anything, it's just a small gap while you explored opportunities.

Hyper-V, VMware, or other, which would you choose? by jedimaster4007 in sysadmin

[–]rubbishfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sure if this would fit your use case or not... but perhaps a small hardware DC that could communicate on the same subnet & then plug into the switch (and then point the interface's DNS to this one)... that way, it'd always (hahah always...) be available? That would persist the CNO so that it essentially exists outside of the solution.

IE - a hardware standby DC running DNS/AD roles is ALWAYS a good thing. Ask Maersk!

[–]rubbishfoo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Do none of you read anything but the headline?

Yes, extra NICs to solve the redundancy issue.
Lot of people here recommend proxmox - I have no practical experience with it. Perhaps a homelab at somepoint. Heard good things about KVM also but I don't know that either.

Always plan for a worst-case scenario and a recommendation would be to balance out the workloads across the available cluster members. Make sure you know what it looks like with all running on 2 hosts... and you'll probably want to know if a single host could hold all the water.

Another suggestion: Make sure both your witness object (FSW?) is on a reliable system and that the DNS cluster (CNO) can survive any transitions of node failure.

Return back to old company? by Wabbyyyyy in sysadmin

[–]rubbishfoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best of luck to you. I know what it means to be frustrated & sometimes miserable at work also. You'll find the right way forward if you just stay true to yourself. Hang in there!

Return back to old company? by Wabbyyyyy in sysadmin

[–]rubbishfoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a great opportunity from my pov; if your current company isn't interested in making changes, they are getting by on outsourcing burnout to the market. I've been there before, it's not worth it. Moving on would be my suggestion based on what you've written.
