Do a clean with DDU first and see if that fixes it

anyone remember the name of a terminal program that allows you to tail multiple stdins in a grid? i thought i remembered a script or something that could do this but maybe it was a bespoke thing i made at my old job on a lark the usecase is e.g. tailing multiple running scripts (or docker containers) at the same time in their own distinct areas that don't clobber the logs of the others

computer crashed overnight and is no longer seeing the nvme drive as even being there. how likely is it that the drive failed vs the motherboard is dying
|
# ? May 17, 2022 02:01 |

both are under a year old

sadly, the drive is far more likely to be the culprit

well i don’t have any files on there i care about all that much anyway

i'd still wanna know why it failed though. samsung cooking itself disease?
|
# ? May 17, 2022 02:17 |

did you screw the drive in or just leave it flappin in its lil slot?
|
# ? May 17, 2022 02:49 |

its screwed in and under the heat sink thing that came w/ the motherboard. im not at home right now to try to check anything but maybe ill try taking it out and putting it back again?

update: i left everything powered off for 12 hours and tried turning it back on again and it works again. didn’t even reseat it. booted up into windows update doing cleanup idk maybe it’s ok now but that isn’t normal

yep theres a windows update service and then another service that repeatedly turns windows update service back on. thats the one you have to gpedit its fuckin dogshit

in leiu of managing to get my url (crimecommitter.com) to actually point at the page I have hosted at github, I am just doing a simple redirection and I've finally worked out that the http redirect works but the https doesn't http: http://crimecommitter.com https: https://crimecommitter.com I couldn't get the proper A NAME thing to work, but I wonder now if I had tried the http then it would have ? maybe i'll try it again e: I tried to get it working properly again and have hosed it up. lets see if some changes have fixed themselves overnight e2: sometimes the links don't work, but if I use https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/crimecommitter.com then it tells me its working and I can click the link and it works. wtf echinopsis fucked around with this message at 15:13 on Jun 4, 2022 |

in your dns provider add four A records with contents of 185.199.108.153, 185.199.109.153, 185.199.110.153 and 185.199.111.153 then go into github pages and make sure you have the 'custom domain' thing checked and fill out crimecommitter.com i think that should do it step 1 points you at github pages' inbound IPs. step 2 tells github pages to accept your domain as a valid host header and route it to your page appropriately

(what is it?) I've never had so much trouble with dns stuff before

the A record is where the IP goes. host just means IP address @ just means your main IP so for example if your website is hosted at mycrimes.nz and it's IP is 3.1.33.7 you'll have mycrimes.nz IN A 3.1.33.7 and you might wanna have https://www.mycrimes.nz point to the same so DNS providers have @ as a shorthand to say "point to the same IP as the parent domain. spankmeister fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Jun 4, 2022 |

Cross posting a project that is quickly escalated to a computer problem:KirbyKhan posted:Wife is interviewing for a teaching position for small children, which means I get to use computers for the amusement of children. My first project is to get the HP printer out of the garage onto my home network and find the sticky note that has the HP username and pass. KirbyKhan posted:Hell yeah it is a motherfucker who caused this problem. KirbyKhan posted:Ok, so I have identified and recognize my printer on the home network. I see it sitting there. I have installed the HP Smart app and pushed update to the printer and have a solid estimate on ink levels. I have printed out a page from the printer that contains the Mac address and there are no issues with the feet or suckers or trey catches or whatever despite the slight crinkle that developed from this stack of office paper I looted when Covid hit our offices years ago. Right now my stopping block is getting the printer to communicate with the "web services" server. If I can do that I can give HP money and I can print out pictures of animals in color.

HP Smart app still waiting for a claim code. I have made a backup of the configurations available in the menu you access by typing the IP into your browser. Password protected with a password.txt in the same directory for when I do this a 7th time. I now restored to factory settings. Obliteration I don't want it no more. HP Easy Start is the software my searches pointed me towards. I accepted everything. I passed on the ink deals. I stumble forward through the multiple choice questions in the wizard. I'm making a post. I want to print a picture of a gorilla.

I got the claim code but zi lost sight of the prize. I used the claim code to create a fancy email address you can send documents to and it'll print. But uh... I didn't pay HP yet, and I'm still looking for a way how. On their support page they have a dude in a similar boat as me and the next and only post was from an employee saying "Ey, I pm'd you instructions lmao" and I'm now installing HP Support Solutions. Edit: it will also install Support Solution Assistant later as to not intturupt my work

In the IP web interface I turned off web services and turned it back on to generate a new code. Then went into HP Smart and went along with the prompts until it redirected to a Microsoft Edge redirect to HP Instant ink , which is when I could finally give HP money. Once I did that
