Dear Lord I'm not the only one wondering what RPM stands for!!

You just unlocked another memory. Doing some bleach cleanup of a wall that had animals in it (painted cinder block behind framing). 2 sections out of 6 completed, I threw my back out. I continued to finish the clean up in agony because I was so mad about the problem at hand. I need to focus more on my upper body and back (I run a lot, but that does close to nothing for core support).

I wrecked my neck sleeping wrong once. Had to go get meds because it wasn't getting immediately better the next day (nor the next two after). That's the part about getting older that sucks. "Surprise your next hurts!"

I have a machine in my garage that gets used for music and the random football game. Starting it up after being down even a few weeks starts the churn of updates. It's annoying.

Gonna start down a rabbit hole here - but are there any good rf remotes for htpc? I've been using Nvidia shield devices for the better part of what feels like a decade now and they're awesome - with the exception of lacking hardware av1 decode.

Depends on how fast the technology can dump current. Lead acid is particularly good about dumping a ton of current to crank.

Bolts may be rated, but the drywall might have other ideas - but you're thinking it through right with the relevant weight load you're putting on it.

Ahem Sony ahem - referring to Minidisc which I thought was awesome but most Americans didn't care.

I've got an older AMD bulldozer platform with 16 or so tb behind it. SMB serves up all of the media to Nvidia shield platforms running Kodi. Away, I'll wire guard in to my network to remotely access media and compute as needed. I'm a big fan of not running a bunch of integrations that would fail at a time I'm just trying to watch something and relax; IT support at home after doing it all day sucks.

 

Just a few tips for installing on a Sophos SG135 (and perhaps others in the Sophos family?) using the serial build via usb

  1. Sophos device starts at 38400,n,8,1 as com settings. OPNsense switches to 115200 after bios. If you set your session to 115200 prior to OPNsense taking over, this causes PuTTY to not be able to input keyboard characters until you kill and re-open the session. Something happens in the transition on either serial interface to cause problems.

  2. Perform the auto detection of interfaces. For some reason I got screwed up on the interfaces and couldn't for the life of me get LAN to come up to configure the box. I believe this was twofold: one, the interfaces were all down when I configured them - and two, that caused them to go into a state to where even if 'ifconfig' showed active as I moved my cabling around, pings would not work (LAN). Once I redid the usb live and utilized the auto detection feature properly, no issues occurred.

Hope this helps someone who may run into similar issues.
