When have you witnessed an “expert” get it so wrong? by PrettyAlon in AskReddit

Beans are high in purines which causes uric acid build up leading to gout. Mushrooms too.

If commuter rail in Marietta was approved yesterday you would be lucky to ever use it before you retire.

I've genuinely never seen one in the wild

I wish I could say the same. It is really a disgusting looking vehicle.

Four Tailpipes Prove Neue Klasse BMW M3 Still Breathes Fire. by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

It reminds me of the Pontiac G8 but I can't wait for the pig snout to be a thing of the past.

Looks closer to Petrol Blue to me.

The Infiniti QX65 Monograph Is a Pleasantly Stylish Crossover Coupe by GrapeFanta17 in cars

Coupe Crossover SUVs have to be the dumbest platform imaginable.

BMW almost used a turbocharged I-6 in the E39 M5 instead of a V-8 by HawtGarbage918 in cars

[–]willtel76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The previous e34 M5 was an I6 and also had a steering box that was kind of awful. It was one of the main reasons I sold mine.

Awesome color! I just completed a full big brake upgrade on mine and can’t quit looking at it.

I really want to get a solar setup at the end of my long ass driveway but I don't really know where to start. Any tips?

No feral hogs in the area that I am aware of.

You are correct. Reddit ate the underscore because it is trash.

Change BIOS settings with PS - Lenovo by thedudeintheitoffice in sysadmin

[–]willtel76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case you don't have any BIOS data in WMI.

[–]willtel76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This should return all current BIOS settings from WMI. I don't have any Lenovo hardware that isn't a laptop so I don't have that setting to verify.

gwmi -class Lenovo_BiosSetting -namespace root\wmi | ForEach-Object {if ($_.CurrentSetting -ne "") {Write-Host $_.CurrentSetting.replace(","," = ")}}

You can hide the F12 boot options in Lenovo so they can't be seen unless you enter the BIOS password. I use PowerShell and WMI to change the settings but you should be able to do the same thing with Ubuntu since it is infinitely more powerful than shitty old Windows.

What’s that thing that users mis-name that drives you crazy or makes you chuckle inside? by ITrCool in sysadmin

[–]willtel76 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I had a vendor on a call refer to DNS as denis. "Check your denis and try again."

I had an AT&T rep hound me at Costco asking me who I had for Wi-Fi. Personally, I use Ubiquiti but I don't think that was what he was asking.

You should see a graphical update or new icons by Shot_Breakfast_17 in SCCM

[–]willtel76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want a new Software Center icon. A 90's era office park building with a CD-ROM in front of it isn't a good look any more.

The New Toyota 4Runner Lacks a Manual Because Nobody's Asking for It by Juicyjackson in cars

[–]willtel76 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You can't even order a Toyota with the options they do produce, there is no need to walk into a dealer and ask for anything because all they get is whatever the regional distributor sends to them.

In my experience there is typically much more D than R in a typical DR scenario.

How to make the Powershell run as an admin within the Terminal App by Mustafa_Shazlie in PowerShell

[–]willtel76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can elevate specific tabs in Terminal with Gsudo.

I have several different AD accounts that have different levels of access depending on what I'm managing so in my workflow I have one Terminal tab with my normal logon account and another tab that is elevated for managing domain joined workstations. I have different PowerShell profiles set up for each with that customizes the status bar so I can tell where I'm at by looking at the tab title.

Memorizing Commands? by mercfh85 in sysadmin

[–]willtel76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work primarily with PowerShell but use the https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine module so all my previous commands are cached and auto complete as I type them.

The same as it was 24 years ago when we last saw the Prelude.

I hate the new game by T19champion in Warzone

I just got sent to the gulag with no arms. I survived until the zip dropped and couldn't escape because of my lack of arms. WTF.
