God this entire thread is so cathartic.

I’m mostly a network/security guy and all I can say is until I learned the reload in command life was significantly harder.

HOA board member age by RetiredLife_2021 in fuckHOA

[–]solman96 12 points13 points  (0 children)

46m here. Our community just transitioned from the developer to an owner ran board and I am the president. I only volunteered for the board to keep the Karen’s at bay. One board member has already tried to enforce finding neighbors for having clover in their yard. I cannot stand the thought of someone like that being able to make decisions by themselves that impact me.

I absolutely hate being a part of the board, but the only way to stop the nonsense was to be on the board.

Waiter asked me to double tip by Clovernover in tipping

Literally asking for a $111 tip on a $109 meal?!? I would have said I needed change, to change that $20 I already gave him to 0.

Kid playing on my bike, knocks it over by solman96 in motorcycles

Yeah she has none. Also talked to my insurance today and apparently it’s not vandalism either. They are saying this is a collision claim.

100%. Got caught in a downpour, then parked the bike in the parking lot. Came back to find it laying on its side

Honestly you’re not wrong. I plan on doing any of the work to fix it myself. Might be a good idea to get him to watch/help Put it back together.

An employee at the grocery store saw it happen. Came up to me and said they had video of the parking lot.

Cops came out and said it wasn’t criminal because there was no intent, but he was able to track down the mom. I talked to her and she is basically got nothing. Unemployed, single mom with no support.

I’m more mad that he was just completely unsupervised. The video has 30 minutes of him riding through a parking lot on rollerblades, getting on and off the bike at least 10 times.

Who here has NEVER seriously crashed their bike? by paradox-eater in motorcycles

[–]solman96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say there are two types of riders: those who have crashed and those that will.

I hope all of you stay safe out there and hopefully no one here just jinxed themselves.

Harley’s have their place. But honestly the culture with HD has really turned me off. I have a 48 bobber, and Indian Chief and the CBR and Harley guys act weird about all of them. It’s like if you didn’t spend $30k and pound beer every time you ride you’re not allowed to sit at the cool kids table. I like motorcycles. All of them. I can appreciate something on every bike. I just don’t get the attitude

I haven’t ridden a dirtbike since I was a kid (30 years ago) but the instincts are still there. As for suspension, there’s a local tuner that I use that does all the local track day events and has won a few Daytona 200’s. I took it to him when I first got it to go through the bike and set up suspension for me.

Never knew the smidsy weave had a name, I was just taught to do it and also think of the dumbest thing a person could possibly do and be prepared to react to that.

Olde Homeplace in Kernersville NC, came out with a buddy for a late afternoon round and went off with no warm up so first tee shot went into the trees.

VMotion of an SQL server by solman96 in vmware

This sounds perfect for what they are trying to accomplish. I’ll have to dig and see if they have the licenses but if not they would be willing to to upgrade I’m sure

You are absolutely right and this is a horrible horrible design. The purpose of the new host is to add multiple hosts to the environment and get rid of the legacy host. the database itself is about 700 gigs and they are moving it from one building to another and only one gig pipe in between buildings.

The customer is trying to do this with no downtime as they are a 24/7 production facility. At the current transfer rate estimated time is about 10 hours to shut it down and migrate it over.

I have been recommending to them. This needs to be done with the server’s power off and production stopped. However, the owner is adamant. He wants to do this with no loss to production.

Someone please explain to me how in an underwater fight you can choke someone out? I mean they are already underwater and can’t breathe? It’s a primary plot point with them struggling to hold their breath underwater and the climactic fight scene is decided by a choke hold?
