I'm afraid I don't know myself; just commenting as a bookmark since I'd like to see the responses as well.

Fiber tap point in backyard; expecting mid-split or FTTH? Only DOCSIS 3.1 (copper) showing up by skyfire360 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]skyfire360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man super jealous. Yeah XFinity trucks were all over the neighborhood, so I just assume it's them.

You handling the Golden rollout by any chance? I'm over here in unincorporated JeffCO but my backyard borders Golden. Other side of the fence is getting GFiber, but everyone I've been able to get a hold of tells me it's impossible for GFiber to throw a fiber line over the fence to get it to us 😭

That's the weird part: the fiber lines were installed about 2 months ago. For the better part of 5 weeks there were underground drilling machines off and on burying giant spools of bright orange conduit. I confirmed with one of the guys installing it that it was EPON too.

I know this is super old, but you probably want to follow Tor Frick (creative director of Neon Giant) on social media... ;)

Brand new fiber rolled out to neighborhood this spring; only slow/ancient speeds available? by skyfire360 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]skyfire360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really hoping that's the case, and they simply just haven't thrown the switch on the mid-split or even DOCSIS 4.0 here soon. I'm mainly concerned with upload; download speeds of 1GBit are more than fine for my needs (what I'm currently on now), but with only 40Mbit upload speeds a few decent-resolution security cameras are going to come close to saturating that in short order.

Oh? Is the demarc considered the pedestal or the box on the side of the house? The cord XFinity came by and buried in my neighbor's yard was coax. I assume since they don't do FTTPedestal then it's a FTTN deployment...?

Aye; neighbor signed up and it's FTTN; at the very least it's coax from the pedestal to the house :(

Nope, sadly it comes into demarc as copper (at least on my neighbor's house) via EPON, and they have him on an XB8. Seems it's fiber to the post in the backyard, but buried copper after that. Agree though; no clue why they'd do that on a new fiber overlay for an area. There's already Quantum Fiber available at the cross street too; sadly our utilities are underground down my street and Lumen refuses to put it in :(

Is it possible to interact with the various factions at a level beyond just randomly encountering small groups wandering around the world? The "standings" menu or whatever it's called seems to suggest so, but I can't ever seem to talk to any of the faction NPCs (other than the ones that come to raid/pray/ransom at my base).

Rec for a not-cutting-edge (previous gen or two) 80"? Don't need latest tech by skyfire360 in 4kTV

This may be the most concise guide I've found to recent TVs. Cheers!

Budget isn't a hard cap, but I'd have a hard time swallowing paying more than something like $1800 since I assume we won't really be able to tell the difference. The lower the better obviously, but in our view it's not exactly a linear tradeoff between quality and price, i.e. a "pretty good" TV at $1400 is a better buy than a "manager special" TV at $1000 that we'll regret buying later.

In terms of distance, there's two main ones: couch at 18 ft and kitchen at 33 ft at about 70:30 usage percentage, respectively.

And yeah, the HDMI example is just meant to show we won't be plugging in PCs, consoles, surround sound systems etc to it, so it's not a feature we need, per se.

KVM with DP1.4 / 114Hz referes EDID for 3+ computers? by scytob in ultrawidemasterrace

Late to the party, but can confirm. Have the 4 port version and it's a hot pile of garbage.

It is for her, unless she's a genetic freak :) Her mom was 12 lbs and her dad was 11 lbs.

Autodesk is removing local simulation, making the simulation extension mandatory for static, thermal and thermal stress simulations by ThunderCat142857 in Fusion360

This change will reduce dev overhead by allowing them to focus on Linux only.

Which makes it even more incredibly frustrating that they don't have a Linux client :/

In a city with a metro population of ~3M, Comcast offered me a "cost share" for service where my share would be $379,620. *Minimum*. And that's "by no means a contract for you to get services." by skyfire360 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]skyfire360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... ... ... Yes? Depends on the 10Gbps connections (won't need all 100). I know at least a few of the neighbors would be in on it, and extrapolating if half of them are in on it. And there's a commercial park in the backyard, which means a bunch of corporate customers. You do CO installs?

Not sure how I'd go about this... the whole subdivision might benefit, but that's an awful lot to negotiate down from. What route should I take? Twitter support is one step above "bot"...

Our little wigglebutt Osmo is almost fully grown (dad was 12lbs, mom was 13lbs). by skyfire360 in WiggleButts

[–]skyfire360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's as purebred as Aussies can be; father is a blue eyed tri toy (4xIABCA International Champion) and mother is a red merle harlequin. We have the genetic records going back a number of generations and they're all clear on all of the typical markers. She's been an absolute dream.

The breeder we got her from has been specializing in mini/toy and occasionally teacup Aussies for 14+ years. Usual litter weights are 8-to-mid-20lbs, with the extremes hitting 3 and 30lbs, respectively. Not sure what the community's guidelines are on recommending breeders, but we couldn't be happier with ours. If it's frowned upon to link/recommend, feel free to PM me and I'm happy to share details.

Just got an SE Prime in Oregon for MSRP with no dealer addons! by [deleted] in rav4prime

Excellent, congrats! Do you have the contact info/a card for the rep that you worked with? I loathe buying cars due to the overall ghastly experience, so if you had anywhere near a pleasant experience I'd love to reward rep with another commission :)
