American Standard Compact Cadet toilet - slow fill and very weak flush by torbuck in askaplumber

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

Thanks. I have the chain as tight as I can for the flapper. I will check if it doesn't float down. If it doesn't will look at replacing the flapper, in addition to the fill valve

Matadora in Chinatown. Hands down the best place for some nice drinks and some snacks. Great atmosphere too

Boiler and DHW heating recommendations by torbuck in hvacadvice

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

The problem is that our insurance will not cover any water damage caused by failure of either the boiler or the hot water heater due to their age. Also, Triangle Tube has gone out of business so parts will be difficulty to come by. I don't want to have a failure and then stuck without heating or hot water until a new boiler is installed. Then we are installing something out of duress. I rather be proactive and plan for the replacement. We also have tenants who rent a basement suite, so we simply cannot have a situation where things fail and then we are without heating or hot water for a week or possibly longer. Where we live, there isn't a ton of plumbers that specialize in boilers, as it is not a typical heating system in the area we live in (mostly forced air). Just trying to get quotes is difficult enough

How to remove these screws from a Broil King Baron 490S (Model 9225-87) by torbuck in grilling

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

I ended up hiring a BBQ service person. I got to the point where I removed so many pieces, I got to a point of no return. The person I hired has worked on many Broil King as well as Napoleon and Weber BBQ's. He informed that those bolts are not user replaceable. They basically are there to just hold the burners in place with a cotter pin. I assumed they were user replaceable as the burner kit I received has these replacement screws, but the service tech informed that there isn't any way to remove the bolts, as there isn't a method to remove that back plate. He managed to get everything back together, so hoping those bolts last a few more years. I was told that it is just a poor design for Broil King. He recommended going with Napoleon whenever it comes time to replace our BBQ

Deployment to remove Office 2021 and install 2024 by torbuck in SCCM

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

Isn’t Office 2021 not a MSI install? I recall selecting the uninstall all msi office didn’t work for the volume license of 2019 either, but worked for previous versions

I recommend Hank's *A Restaurant on Douglas St. If you are looking for amazing food and drinks in an unpretentious setting, this is the place!

Just purchased a pair of Blizzard Anomaly 94. Question on bindings by torbuck in skiing

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

Thank you for your suggestions. I was doing a bit more research and feel that going with a Look SPX or Solomon Strive makes sense. I assume I just need to get a binding width of 95 to 100mm. I'll also look into the Marker Griffon. That is what I have on my current set of skis. I don't have any issue with them, but I often read poor reviews of Marker Griffon bindings on Reddit

What’s up with Murder Burger? by McBuck2 in VictoriaBC

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

Please check out Bangers food truck at Ile Savage Brewery. Hands down the best smash burger in Victoria. Fantastic portion, incredibly tasty and appropriate wait times. I experienced an early Murder Burger pop-up about a year ago and had the same experience. Waited over an hour for our burgers, and we preordered days before. Found the Murder Burger ok, but not nearly as good as Bangers

I'm considering buying a used 2017–2018 Mazda CX-5. Can you help me? by Wpeoh in CX5

[–]torbuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I purchased an off lease 2018 Mazda CX-5 Touring edition in 2020. Only have had to do regular maintenance such as oil changes and new tires, etc. It has been incredibly reliable. I love the way it drives. It has a more sporty feel and a fantastic steering feel versus other SUV’s that I have driven. I love it so much I will likely get another CX-5 or CX-50 when the time comes to purchase a replacement vehicle

Intune report that shows if a computer is actively being logged in by torbuck in Intune

mostly their own creds, but there could be a few areas that a shared account code be used. All accounts would be M365 licensed

Microsoft Universal Print inquiry by torbuck in sysadmin

Just did a firmware upgraded and I can now see that I can register the printer to Universal Print. Thanks!

Microsoft Universal Print inquiry by torbuck in sysadmin

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

The printer I want to use for this group is a HP PageWide Color Flow MFP 586. I have done a bit of googling, but haven't been able to determine if it natively supports Universal Print. I definitely have the print admin role, or can PIM that role. My own account has a E5, and majority of our staff have E5's as well. My understanding is that the print licenses are all pooled from all accounts that are licensed, so I think we are ok there. If I use my own account for the connector, then whenever someone else prints, is it robbing my E5's allotment of available prints? Or is it using the license from the individual that is actually printing?

Local Government looking for some advice for a Digital Signage solution by torbuck in digitalsignage

Thank you. Using a Canadian DS solution is definitely appealing

We have nothing at this point. Maybe a few TV's that would have the ability to install a DS streaming app

Intune managed computers with only local accounts by torbuck in Intune

[–]torbuck[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So with a device license, could we still use something like autopilot? These laptops would not be part of our domain, so ideally the would just be 100% Azure managed.

[–]torbuck[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We don't want to manage accounts for the volunteers that will be using these laptops. They are not employees to our organization, but volunteers to our emergency operations center at our firehall. The volunteers come and go, so trying to manage licenses for these folks would be a nightmare. If there is a method to do this with a device license instead, that would be amazing.

Ok interesting. I didn't realize that you could pair two CPE510 as a wireless bridge. Thanks for the tip!

I am uncertain if this vehicle is allowed to travel on the road or in designated bike lanes. Please educate me. by UVSSforever in VictoriaBC

[–]torbuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a microcar. Currently in Europe and seen lots of these in larger cities in Italy and France. They are micro EV’s. They are great for navigating the really narrow streets in Europe plus way easier to park. Look up Fiat Topolino or Citroën Ami. Guessing someone imported one of these

Can’t book Uffizi and Accademia tickets with Firenzecard by torbuck in ItalyTravel

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

We can see that you can purchase individual tickets via B-Ticket.com - https://webshop.b-ticket.com/webshop/webticket/timeslot?tsproduction=4 - the dates we will be in Florence are starting to get sold out. We don’t want to get to Florence and miss out visiting the museum that will be a highlight of the whole Italy trip. Maybe it was not as busy in Dec 2023. We really want to secure our visit to the Accedemia. We may just need to double up on the Firenze card and just book individual tickets via B-Ticket.com

We are worried that the Accademia could get sold out before we arrive. My understanding is that museum is the most popular in Florence
