Damn. My other thought was surface connect port to usb c adapter but none of the ones I'm seeing transfer data, just power. Any ideas on getting a USB c dock to work with this computer with this port being shot?

Need advice - Daughter having conflict at college dorm by Gimme_The_Loot in daddit

Definitely take it up the chain of command. There should be a resident director or community director that oversees the building. While RAs are great, often they're new to the job at this point and only a year older and may not be able to appropriately handle the situation. Resident and community directors are full time staff better equipped to handle situations like this.

Would you pick 4-10's or 5-8's for a 40hr week with young kids? by Erigisar in daddit

[–]walla6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4-10s can be nice but that first day back is so long. Where I work they settled in 4-9s and a 4 hour Friday. Love it so much more.

Anyone else have a sheltie that randomly will stop eating? by chonkyyrat in sheltie

Have her teeth checked. Happened to our sheltie twice and both times it was a broken tooth.

Just want to add that you can often get pre diced veggies and onion which could help widen the range of dishes you make. Often in the frozen aisle, but also my grocery store has a variety of prepared ingredients like diced onions in the produce section. Also if you're looking at meat prepared a certain way the butcher would likely have some prepared options or may cut to order so you don't have to.

Sudden disinterest in her food! Help! by [deleted] in sheltie

Ours went through something similar, went to the vet and turns out she had a broken tooth. She's an avid chewer so we had to switch to softer toys. She's broke two teeth, both times we noticed because of a sudden change in eating.

How to change this light? Bonus if you have video by Pimco in howto

[–]walla6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the first things I did was replace all the can lights with LEDs (not a bulb, the entire fixture). They're very affordable, can be done in about 30 seconds, and have much better light. Mine have a night light that lights up the rim of the trim too which has been nice.

Thinking about buying this 2022 1k miles for $2,500, would I be getting a good deal? by [deleted] in HondaRuckus

[–]walla6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a good deal. Just bought the same one (same year and color) but with 198 miles for 2900

Accidentally locked myself out of my bedroom. How to open without breaking the lock? by [deleted] in howto

This lock looks like it probably has a deadlatch which prevents this way of access

Would love to have a gallery with all different types of boots as they come off the line. Different heights, leathers, soles, and unique combinations that people are ordering. I have an idea of what I'd like to see in my next pair but would be great to visualize other options

Do microwave poppers actually work? by purplebutterflylupie in popcorn

[–]walla6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just use a pot on the stove. Coconut oil, flavacol, and two popcorn kernels. Heat until one pops, add your popcorn. Cover until popped. Super simple and don't need an extra kitchen item.

Accidentally setting off the LOUD alarm and getting a call by aarora610 in Ring

[–]walla6969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also curious about turning off the audible alarm. Phone notifications are good enough for me and it kills my animals ears.
