And make it connect with an RJ-45 so you can swap out for a connection device for your own carrier instead of some stupid proprietary interface.

I miss a lot of the niche hobby subs, the non-image sex related subs, justrolledintotheshop, *swap subs, and some of the *sales subs. I have other forums where I can fulfill some of these and it was nice to have them all in one place.

Cool, thanks for the write up. Maybe I’ll install it and give it another try. I have tried it a couple of times and it has been quite a while since my last attempt. It definitely was the combat system I had difficulty with.

- Comment on Control - the first game to get me to turn on cheats in decades 9 months ago:
I started playing Control a couple of weeks ago and I’ve found it to be a lot of fun so far. I’m currently at the power plant so I may not be to the frustrating point yet. I definitely see your point about getting lost. Even with all the signs and the map it can be difficult to navigate at times, though it is becoming a bit easier as I am more familiar with navigating the game.
I am about to reach that point with Resident Evil 4 (2023). I’m at one of the first levels in the village and I’ve spent probably two hours trying to get past this one level, only to die every attempt so far. I think I’m up to at least ten attempts now and it’s driving me nuts.

That wouldn’t work with every dishwasher I’ve ever had. They all start the cycle by draining any liquid in the dishwasher before they fill to run the first pre-wash cycle.

- Comment on HP fails to derail claims that it bricks scanners on multifunction printers when ink runs low 1 year ago:
The number of bugs I’ve encountered on HPE server hardware that cause full system lockups is insane. They’ve sent out engineering and collected logs and released new firmwares based on bugs I’ve found and been able to reliably replicate. Unfortunately, it took years of tickets, and wasted weekends to finally get them to admit it was their issue. Their iLO firmware is pretty buggy and I’ve had many problems with it over the years. To be fair Dell’s iDRAC has bugs too, and their lifecycle controllers leave much to be desired, but thankfully none have been showstoppers like I’ve experienced with HPE gear.
HPE’s storage systems have been quite problematic for me as well. I ran some of their EVA P6000 arrays back in the day and had too many scary moments keeping those online. I switched to Compellent arrays after that and they were awesome. Unfortunately, Dell retired that line in 2021, so now I’m giving their Powerstore arrays a try and so far the experience has been good.

Their servers and storage systems are absolute garbage too.

This so true. I’ve had some quotes for Splunk over the years and every one I get is so ridiculously expensive that it can’t even be considered.

My last three printers have been Brother and they have been great. They do still have chipped toner cartridges but I haven’t had any trouble with 3rd party toner. They also work fantastic on Linux.

Nice job! I have had the same unit for about 3 years now and I have been very happy with it. The amount of electricity it requires compared to a convention is a heck of a lot less. It also has the nice side effect of cooling and dehumidifying my garage during the summer time.
