  1. Ugh. Finding a thin client that is off lease, and has a PCI-e slot that I can use as a riser is annoying as hell. Damn y'all sysadmin folks who have already done so!!!

      Dell Wyse Z-series have PCIe slots in M.2 or NVMe form... 

  2. If you ever feel safe, just remember I'm out there.

      The absolute edge tho.

  3. 25 hours a day

    8 days a week

    416 days a year

  4. Rogers, Bell, and Telus have been busy rolling out their 3500MHz spectrum since last year. Hopefully when the 3800MHz spectrum auction comes around in October, it'll be painless with carriers just needing to enable the frequency in configuration settings, and nothing requiring an additional AAU.

  5. For what it's worth, Reolink makes pretty decent security cameras. Decent, just make sure you throw it into a VLAN and limit its internet access. Combine that with Milestone for the video monitoring software, and Tailscale as a VPN when I'm not at home, and it's a decent solution that doesn't need much tinkering with.

     

    I will have to upgrade to a 12-14TB WD Purple in the future though. For now, I'll just sit back and enjoy doing house projects on the side.

  6. Your solution is to send it into Acer and hope for the best. If Windows Update did this, I'd be more concerned than I am currently.
  7. I would just fly. You never know what's going to happen on the roads and maps aren't always up to date with road closures and weather.
  8. Looking to get one of those Lenovo ThinkCentre m910q's. I have a plan for it, but unfortunately wall mounts that also let you cradle the ThinkCentre while holding a monitor are hard to come by. I may have to head down to Home Depot and come up with a janky solution for it, but I have some ideas.

      This is part of it, but I need to also hold a monitor as well. It's one thing to get it to go behind a monitor, but I need both of them to be wall mounted in one cluster.

  9. It looks like a pretty good deal. They cheaped out on the motherboard and the SSD while throwing most of the cost into the graphics card. Prices like this remind me of the 3070 prebuilt that Dell threw into one of their PC's. People bought them for way less than what this prebuild cost, shucked them, and resold the GPU's for a profit. Some got greedy and tried to sell the prebuilt as well. Anyway. The price looks fine if that's all in.
  10. $98.30 paid in customs later and I'm just happy to see my package has arrived in Canada and is on its way to me.

  11. Stupid Canada Post Union... Friendly reminder to people shipping things to Canada - Please avoid using USPS if you're shipping with a tracking number! Canada Post will literally NOT scan anything into their system or share any information about international packages. Fedex/UPS/Any other carrier that does their own shipping is 500x better.

  12. My Google Pixel 6 Pro has been retired. I just switched to a Samsung S23 Ultra. Unfortunately, The Pixel 6 Pro cost me a $5,000 work contract and that really sucked.

  13. My 150-600mm lens and filter are coming today, then I get my Phonak Roger Select iN for my hearing aids shipped within the next few weeks. The amount of hype I have right now is insane. The possibilities are endless and I'm here for them!!!

  14. Purchasing a 150mm-600mm Sigma lens for my Nikon D5300. This'll be a good complement to my ever growing set of lenses.
