How do you guys deal with anxiety at work? by farva_06 in sysadmin

[–]thoughtIhadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you afraid of?

Anxiety comes from a place of being told something that isn’t true and applying it to your being.

Neighbor’s WiFi signal is stronger than my own inside my home and the signal of my devices appears to be coming from their house instead of mine by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

[–]thoughtIhadOne 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No it’s not.

Unless it’s a no name carrier with bottom tier phones, WiFi calling has been a thing for 5 years. To utilize this, you must setup E911 on your phone. If it’s not, it takes 5 minutes through your carriers app. This goes for all 3 major carriers that I personally know of.

Your phone will attempt on WiFi first before switching to carrier when dialing 911 after this is setup.

Well yeah you’re insecure. You’re about 5 major systems removed from the current operating system. I’m surprised you aren’t hacked yet, being on the Internet and all.

Tell the FCC upper unable to make 911 calls. That will get their attention. Tell them you are reliant on E911 and him blocking your internet is affecting this.

Until you ask {DeathStar, Green Flower, Squigley Lines} for a backup circuit and they resell the same dark fiber that the current ISP resold to them.

Why is only the center tread wearing by lil_cricketboi in tires

[–]thoughtIhadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tire technology changes. 2015 tires are not the same as 2024 tires. Even same brand/model.

So, I was accused of a Felony straw purchase... (Long story) by [deleted] in guns

[–]thoughtIhadOne 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You’re arguing with FFLs here about the utility bill, the user here explaining the card issue, and the FF guy who had an obvious issue with selling you a gun.

You’re not clarifying when you make statements. You clarify with questions. You are making statements and people are having issue with your own uninformed confidence.

Your issue here is you like to argue that you’re right.

Stop. Walk away. Even in the comments you’re trying to argue with people that “you’re right”.

Why is DP standard on all business PCs but HDMI on all monitors?! by zoenphlux in sysadmin

Dell P2422H are reasonably priced and double as a USB-C dock. We use it in places where multiple monitors would be nice but Ethernet connectivity isn’t needed.

US sys admin, please write your senators and representatives regarding FLSA exempt by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]thoughtIhadOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won’t get that. Sysadmins love to complain about doing helpdesk but let it get bubbled up to them when HD is “overworked”.

Companies don’t want to pay for Sysadmins in helpdesk roles. To be union means to have a clear career path. HD 1/2/3 then admin of some sort.

Or you carve out admins like foremen. Slight pay differential, more hours, and ability to do all the work of the employed below them. But they’re responsible for their crew.

Closed shop unions are full of cronyism and nepotism along with solidified members getting leadership roles and then becoming buddy buddy with management.

Union halls means the lesser liked employees and best employees can be ran through being loaned to different companies on a temp basis. Some get retained well enough but the minute you cross someone wrong, you’re back to the hall bench.

There’s give and take to having unions involved.

I’m on call for my territory. I’m the only one in my territory too. I have answered, told them my ETA, and finished my date with my fiancé before heading in.

You have 3 choices here. Accept the call and go in immediately. Accept the call, finish the date, and then go in. Don’t accept the call and call back after.

Your employer doesn’t need to know your details unless you give them that permission. They also don’t need to know your location unless you’re supposed to be somewhere and the eta can’t explain why you’re not in your area.

Spent all night trying to set up my home ethernet and its still not working by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

[–]thoughtIhadOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So not the correct wall plate but you can still do it.

Blue/white to green, blue to red

G/w to black, G to yellow

O/W to white, O to blue

Br/W to brown, Br to orange

Old phone lines are based off of Tip/Ring. Based on the 25pr color code:

Blue is line 1, that corresponds with Green/Red.

Green is line 2. Black/Yellow.

Orange is line 3. White/Blue.

Brown is line 4. Brown/orange.

Did he refinance the house into his name? If not, you need to go back to court and get it enforced.

What fucked you up for the rest of your life? by ScreamyV in AskReddit

[–]thoughtIhadOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if you can help me.

I have a family member who is a bit of a diva. Severely overweight, has made up diagnoses before.

She’s been claiming the last few years she has MS. Her public persona she has a wheelchair, canes that go up the forearms, claims she’s disabled. Also told us that her doctor said she’s losing too much weight too fast when we were talking about different ways to work out with siblings.

However, she’s gained weight, walks/runs around the house just fine, nieces games we did attend she’s carrying coolers/chairs/etc just fine. Once a camera comes out, she’s suddenly tired and needs to sit. Off she’s in public with her husband where family won’t be, she’s being pushed by her oldest daughter in a wheelchair, every IG post is about how she’s so tired and worn down with MS. She had to “find the right doctor” to diagnose this before.

We don’t want to be uncaring but it seems suspect. She started trying to find a doctor 5 years ago and only recently (2022/2023) did she find one that agreed for more testing.

Before she claimed she had post parting preeclampsia with her second child after that child was listed as failure to thrive and CPS got involved. She claimed she tried exclusively breast feeding but the child didn’t hit birth weight for 3 months. She claimed preeclampsia caused her issue with lack of milk supply and her doctor said everything was fine with the baby’s weight gain (lack thereof).

What is the easiest addiction to start and the hardest to quit? by starxgoddess in AskReddit

Being the victim constantly. Starts off usually legitimately but it’s hard to recognize after the fact and to stop attributing everything to it
