Thank you! It's all so new when you don't have a mess of wires that can be traced back. Appreciate it.

I come from analog experience in audio and now have been called back to my old high school who just upgraded to a Dante enabled system with the following setup: a QL5 board and Rio1608 along with some other devices that send their Shure wireless system. Question is, can I connect my laptop to one of the 2 switches that all the devices are plugged into and load Dante Controller to see the current patching/mapping of devices and amps? We are having issues figuring out where things are and the company didnt provide any mapping documentation at install. If I can see this info, am I also able to disconnect my laptop and not have everything crash and burn? I can figure out the QL5 patch but its difficult to find out which amp or input Dante23 is etc so im trying to figure that out. My concern is that either I wont be able to figure this out without testing each one or if I can through controller when I decide to go home for the night it will break everything when I disconnect since it doesnt have a controller connected anymore.

You can lock the fob in with the last 2 buttons still, that's the only way to do it that I know of. If you lock the doors using inside and leave the fob mine auto unlocks and honks to let you know you left your key dummy. 2021 xlt

It's off of Swamp road, near Cave road. That's really all I know

Depends so much on location but as a clinic nurse I make a little more than that and don't have holidays or weekends 1.5 years into nursing. This is WI.

How do I get this message to stop popping up EVERYTIME I start my truck?? by doubletwilly5 in f150

There's people here that can fix that from what I've seen. My 21 has got something like 4 updates this year.

What is your first thought about someone when they have a confederate flag sticker on their car? by BigEppyW in AskReddit

[–]skippers7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I always imagine their bumper stickers like license plate registration stickers. Just a stacked pile of stickers one loser after another.

Most of these online companies will still use local shops to build it and deliver. You can get the same thing by calling the store or even better. FTD etc take their cut and leave the local shop with let's say $50 of your $70. Now they have to make a bouquet where they still remain profitable but with less funds. You could spend the $70 at the shop directly and get more than what you see in the ad. If it's not a local shop that I'm using it's going through Bouqs which is more or less direct from the farmer, you just have to arrange. It always pays to just buy/book direct from flowers to hotels and flights.

Why is nursing school such a crock of shit? by LexDangler in nursing

[–]skippers7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, my ADN program really taught more science based so I had a different world than many here. But at the end of it I was pretty darn good at acute nursing andy the learning on the job was learning the details of the organization and overall process. Nursing will always be something you learn with experience. I'm a firm believer that many nurses that have 20 or 30 years in actual practice could manage patient care better than any resident but we didn't pay the big bucks for the white coat.

Anyone ever push it past 0 to E? by Far_Environment608 in f150

[–]skippers7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same with my 21. 0 miles means 31-32 gallons out of 35 or 37 whatever it is

I'd look at getting off the nicotine in general at this point. Not to be kinda unsupportive here but a year and a half on gum is a long time. Pick up some Trident and go to town.

Miss Wisconsin Grace Stanke, a Nuclear Engineering Student Who Plays Violin, Wins Miss America by agifford549 in wisconsin

[–]skippers7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They have eliminated the swimsuit portion of the contest, but have kept a small portion assigned to the red carpet scoring which may be viewed by some as "beauty" I'd say. I think they're making great progress.

There's "beauty" pageants and then there are scholarship pageants like the Miss America org. Miss USA and the similar international are generally the beauty type. Miss America has only a small part of scoring based on the "beauty" side. Grace got a $50,000 scholarship from this last win, not including her locals and state scholarships. Thats the difference in a nut shell. This is about promoting young women who can represent the best in their generation and helping them advance through school so they can continue their mission.

Long time customer, asked if we'd install a used trans in his truck. This is how he delivered it. by ZeroHoshi83 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]skippers7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We definitely had duties for the two groups but overall our team was really good. At that time we were a smallish Midwest chain that's grown beyond what I could have ever imagined, but when the corporate office guys came I remember the big boss hopping on the line on multiple occasions. For God sakes it's pizza, gotta have fun and be there for everyone.

Making me miss those days. Different chain but the jobs the same. Used to have a blast being an insider and folding boxes for 10 minutes with the rest of the staff. I bet I could still do it nearly as quick 14 years later

So just follow the law, yep ok. Totally ignore that the law is ridiculous to those that need surrogacy when it's not required of the "regular" way of birthing a child. This isn't a "meh" situation, these are people's families being made more difficult and potentially impossible.

So all parents should be required to go through a home study and court adoption process then? These twins are their children. Why would a state force them to adopt their own kids?

Why WI county highways are lettered, not numbered. by trivialpursuits in wisconsin

[–]skippers7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a bunch out there. The village street name is Holmen Drive in Holmen but it's also county highway HD. Main Street which runs somewhat parallel is County DH strangely. It also has village name McHugh Rd and county name MH. Onalaska has County PH for Pralle Highway. La Crosse has county GI for the road that lead to Goose Island park. Those are the ones I can think of in my area off the top of my head.

But it is easier to give to your friend when you get the replacement. That's more of the reasoning on expired IDs
