makes sense, we get lots of once in a blue moon poo poo here too. like back when i worked as an electrician's assistant over summer, i was jacking out channels in the vall for the cables, and did cross a few old cables in the vall, that were held either in lead, or glass tubes, for instance as for 15a @ 120v yea, still exceeds the lowest tier crap here, which never reaches 12, or often even just double digits of "american amperes" at all

ceiling fans are not a thing here either, as you might imagine speaking of ceiling lights, btw, do you guys do like swedes do, where they have a funny lighting outlet around ceiling that you plug your light in?

I live in a non poo poo tier European country so quality of switches isn't a problem, but light switches are designed for switching lights and usually can handle 10A, they are not designed to handle the full 16 amps in a typical wall outlet circuit.

Maximum Leader posted:why would you want a fan for the winter ceiling fan at low speed is pretty decent for ensuring air movement that keeps hot air from settling in just one part of the room. you wouldn't want to put it up to high though, because then the cooling effect overwhelms it. spankmeister posted:I live in a non poo poo tier European country so quality of switches isn't a problem, but light switches are designed for switching lights and usually can handle 10A, they are not designed to handle the full 16 amps in a typical wall outlet circuit. they should be. i mean the british usually have switches directly attached to their outlets and thats the same power isnt it.

is there a place where i can get a microsoft windows server license for cheap homelab use, kinda like how vmug only costs $200/year my boyfriend is a college student would it be allowed for him to buy it with my money through dreamspark and me use it i wanna experiment with hyper-v

evaluation license is 4 or 6 months and you can rearm it a few times to go a year or more between reinstalls. dreamspark is free but it depends on your school, some of them don't have server licenses unless you are an IT student. you can setup vagrant or another tool to automate transferring the fsmo roles and promoting the DCs. it is good practice to demote and promote servers anyways. the command is just slmgr.vbs -rearm to extend the trial period.

i installed about 130ft of cat5e today between the main house and outside cottage. to see if everything worked, I quickly ghetto-crimped some RJ45s using a flat-tip screwdriver and hammer – my crimping tool wasn't in the tool box. and, well, either the cable is running right next to a DC transformer or my crimping hackjob is worse than i thought, because i'm only getting throughput of ~10mbps using gigabit routers. it's been years since I've really got involved with networking at a more complex level, though. will the speed be sorted by properly crimping on the plugs (which I suspect aren't making proper contact with the strands) or should i suck it up and buy some cat6 STP cable?

cinci zoo sniper posted:yeah, do unfuck your endpoint wiring, cat5e proper should be consistent wrt up to 1gbps @ 100 metres end-to-end my thinking too. i wasn't able to get a PC in there to see what the negotiated link speed is, but the fact that it's at ~10mbps makes me think it's stuck at ethernet speed bc of a dodgy connection on a pin. more so, "negotiated speed" theory makes sense because the speed tests didn't exhibit usual signs of interference: wildly inconsistent speeds. thanks for the reassurance.
