  Hello fellow home labber! I have a home built xpenology box, proxmox server with a dozen vm’s, a hackentosh, and a workstation with 44 cores running linux. Oh, and a usb floppy drive. We are out here.

  I also like long walks in Oblivion.

  Name them. Bosch does this with some functions too. I bought the model below and didn’t care about delayed start or whatever. I am not loading your app!

  I swear we need to start some appliance hacking clubs or something to sidestep this crap.

  Well, with general enshittification, Steam’s progress and W10 sunsetting maybe it will tick up the charts a bit more this year. I have laptops and home theater systems and have converted several in the last six months. Mostly Mint and EndeavorOS so far, but I’ll also load up Manjaro and Fedora on the last couple to see how I like them. Linux has come a long way.

  Many years ago I saw a post on…probably Digg, that espoused 200 (very valid) reasons to hate Reagan. It was one of those light-bulb moments for me as at that time I had no idea how damaging his presidency was.

  However, the new American analogue will be trump.

  I’ll be sure to tell the family members I don’t talk to anymore about this…ug.

  All my sisters went into healthcare. The men all went into IT. I suppose the women care and the men are into constantly fixing things? IDK.

  There are plenty of Reddit refuges here so we can still get those old vibes.

  I think the lack of context hurt your post the most. And as another mentioned, youboob doesn’t do very well here.

  Probably a sweetened popcorn version. Kettle corn maybe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Opinions Wanted: Creeky Floors⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Drive a screw into it. This is far easier to do with a carpeted floor since the screw head (and hole) is not as noticeable. Be aware not to have any screw heads sticking up anywhere when done. They do also make special screws that will snap the head off once sunk. Thus leaving no major visible trace, but you could use normal screws as long as you got them flush.

  Try sinking the screw down on or near a squeaky spot in an attempt to tighten it up. You’ll need that screw to hit a floor joist as well to have something for the floor surface to tighten to. Sink one screw and test. If it didn’t help, back it out and try elsewhere nearby. It helps if you can identify the joist pattern for your floor.

  You could also try from below the floor assuming access was available. But in that case, I’d also use caulk/glue from there too to help quite things down.

  I would not do anything from above for a finished wood floor. Too easy to mess it up and your landlord would charge you for the damage. It is potentially do-able with finish nails, skill and careful precision (which I lack).

  I had someone hijack my account last year, Like a dummy, I had failed to setup 2FA. I caught it in the morning after they worked it most of the wee hours. Phone and email had been changed. I contacted PP and to my surprise they were effective in righting everything. By the end of the day, it was corrected. I was absolutely shocked they were so helpful, but I guess it can happen. So, maybe try again?
