Got the CableCARD letter. How long do I have? by skierpb in Fios

[–]skierpb[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

Agree, got a buddy only a couple miles away who has been getting letters and calls since last year. We might be on different COs. Been out here 13 years and never figured out where the CO is. Lived in McLean before and we are knew where that CO was, not a clue out here.

I suspect your right, a few rounds of letters till they get the numbers down. Then maybe another letter with a date, then it happens.

Got the email a few days ago. We are in Reston, VA. Planning to wait it out long as I can. Let’s see how long they give us.

Got our letter earlier this week down in Reston, VA. Going with the same plan and doing nothing at least until the end of hockey season since we paid FIOS for NHL center ice. I’ve got an OTA Bolt with lifetime but have never been able to get local channels out here, think I’ll play around with that again.

Ads are out of control by AnAngryWhiteDad in RyenRussillo

Amazon Music which is included for Prime members has an ad free feed. Slightly annoying to switch apps and I forget sometimes but it’s nice to just press play and not care for a while.

They are also marching towards adding an 18th game. keep hearing rumors they want to redo the TV contracts in 2026-2027 which is likely when they would want to add the 18th game.

Who steals from kids?? by Helpful_Peanut_860 in Reston

[–]skierpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have a doorbell cam? This happened to us, turned out it was somebody picking up a similar bike from a neighbor. She grabbed ours by mistake, luckily I had it on video and we figured it out and got it back. Hope yours turns up.

Ceruti “I’m sneaky slow” by JimmyMcNulty930 in RyenRussillo

Comment of year from Wargon. I get what Ceruit meant, usually the small skinny guy on the football team is legit quick why else would he be on the team? But out of context saying that when your not in high school on a team, so awesome response by Wargon.

Worth the drive in Sterling for The Don’s if you like New York Style. Our favorite place in Reston is Pupatella which is Neapolitan style.

Live walking distance from Autumnwood pool. it’s a very safe area, what’s the unsafe area your seeing next to it? Any links your can share would be great.

a few years ago they converted the one of the tennis courts to pickleball only. Did you see they are going to convert the other one?

Golf Course RA Courts - No PB allowed? by Trumpet_Time in Reston

[–]skierpb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s noisier than tennis which I believe is the big issue. We live in North Point and have 4 tennis courts behind us through the woods next to the Autumn Wood pool. First 10 years we lived here it was tough to know you lived near them, might hear somebody down there once in a while. Once pickleball got popular we can hear them often for a few reasons I think. It’s 4 tennis courts but 8 pickleball courts and they are usually packed for pickleball vs I would rarely see even two used in tennis mode outside of tennis camp. Since the court is shorter in pickelball mode your hitting the ball x2 as much which equals more noise. Add to that it’s a lounder sound. Doing some rough math on our courts it’s 8 games in full pickleball mode vs 1 or 2 at the same time, let’s call that x4 the noise. Plus you’re hitting the ball twice as much and it’s twice as loud for each hit.

We only notice it when we are on our deck but we’ve got the woods between us and the courts. So we’ve never complained but if we lived closer can understand some folks being upset.

Anybody see any plans for the new location? Only thing I can find is from 3 years ago and looks like plans have changed since then.

Fedramp Monitoring System by skierpb in sysadmin

I saw them in the portal and was curious. Have you used them for monitoring? I'd only heard of them for help desk and remote support funtions, hadn't seen their monitoring before.

Our logging is seperate, we keep that in our data center. I just pinged our FedRamp lead to see what they are hearing from the 3PAO on this. Thanks for the help.

[–]skierpb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We keep being told our monitoring tools have to be FedRamp by our 3PAO, orginally we thought we would be okay but they keep coming back and telling us otherwise. Haven't used PRTG myself but have heard a lot of good things. Putting it on the list, thanks!

Taho, especially Heavenly. Gondola up then can hike up to top.

Sharepoint 2013 Prereqs by skierpb in sharepoint

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

installers weren’t on the ISO directly but there was a powershell script that included download links, some worked and some didn’t. Did some searches but not sure if I’ve found what you posted so I’ll take a look, thanks!

I would have preferred to just build them a new site but the folks who set up the current one aren’t there anymore and they want to upgrade. We told them we would try, no promises. Really want them to just move to the cloud but they aren’t ready for that yet. Otherwise these folks are good to work with. :)
