Ok dude.

Have you ever set up one of these devices? It's not a case of 'find my wifi, enter in passkey, connected' they literally broadcast an unsecured ad hoc network that you connect to and configure from.

If you never connect it it will sit there blaring an unsecured wifi with access to its core configuration forever

Worth remembering that a lot of serious life-changing surgeries are 'elective'

By which i mean shit like joint reconstruction, endometriosis removal, ear grommets, cataract removal, etc.

Rotary hammer drill recommendations (aussie.zone)
 

ok, so looking to get a rotary hammer drill. SDS / chuck, I don't care, can kinda go either way with corded/cordless - would prefer the latter, but well aware you lose balls with a battery.

I've been eyeing off the Ryobi HP brushless SDS (RSDS18X) but I think it's mostly the shiny factor and the fact we're already in the ecosystem - which I can happily toss in a bin if something better and cheaper comes along. It is the upper limit of the budget though, so call that a benchmark. Yes I will be shopping at the big green shed.

I already have two standard drills, an impact driver and a hammer drill, so as you can imagine the rotary will be used for situations where I am Done Asking Politely (and I have a lot of concrete I shall be negotiating with)

REC ME O WISE ONES

How would you transition this? (aussie.zone)

Marble outdoor to internal hardwood. House built in the 60's and i just spent ages clearing up old carpet tack and cement some dickhead had slapped over the floorboards.

It's not even, but hangs around 3cm difference between flooring surfaces. The surrounding walls are original bullnose sideboards in spectacular condition, so would like to be sympathetic.

Ideas? Suggestions?

(Yes i'm treating the rot and putting in a moisture break between the cement and wood)

Linux GUI termserv (aussie.zone)

Due to hardware reqs we're tossing the idea at work to replace the Microsoft termserv with Linux. Due to the userbase being all windows fans we'd need a full on GUI and i've been prodded towards Mint. Good idea or bad?

I've happily set up a remote kunbuntu for my workspace previously, but accomodating multiple complete linux neophytes is giving me a bit of pause.

Bit more info: The current termserv is a debloated win10 machine with the multisession registry edit. However, it's on an R515 with proxmox (and running extremely well). Due to partner network requirements, we can't run depreciated software, and the box won't support win11, and frankly, I sat the boss down and asked him if he wanted to be microsoft's bitch for the forseeable future and junk serviceable hardware. He's absolutely up to getting on a linux ecosystem, but the graphical desktop environment is non-negotiable on his end.

Unable to comment? (aussie.zone)
 

Running IOS version, can post to the body of of a thread, but unable to reply to comments in any way, shape or form. Not even the option to do so. Not in-thread, not from inbox. Only options are report or copy text/link

Definitely logged in seeing as the whole inbox thing....

Also can't upvote/ downvote, attempting to do just collapses the thread

Thoughts?
