EVERYONE, GO STAND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BUILDING! JUMP ON 3, WE'LL LEVEL IT BACK OUT!

See some of the pictures from the telsa. Wonder how all those "flat earthers" explain the images lol

Hey. . . the earth is flat, like a pizza! which means it's still round. . . just not spherical.

well done!

@dbeato does.

Yes, I use it a lot for my connection monitoring.

The connection to the hospital terminates in building 2, but the equipment that needs access to this is on the other end of a private fiber link in building 1. So I purchased a ER-X SFP for the side near the corporate firewall, and a ES SFP for the radiology side. The ER-X SFP was the least expensive way to get the fiber connections for the building 2 side.

The equipment would be fine. A little benefit: You could run a VPN tunnel too to secure traffic, if that's a requirement.

I suppose I could. It is provided by Cox, so it's like the NSA has taps in their DCs just like everywhere watching all traffic flowing.

They shouldn't be able to. Health data should be kept private.

LOL - just like no one should have been looking at private data flowing between Google Datacenter just because it was flowing through AT&Ts DCs... but it was happening.

Sadly, yes

@tim_g said in switch DEs:

So what exactly is so hard about installing a DE?

At one time i had Gnome, KDE, xfce, and Mate installed and working at the same time. You just choose the one you want at login and it remembers.

You would do something similar to this:

dnf group install "MATE Desktop"

dnf group install "Fedora Workstation"

dnf group install "mate-desktop"

I don't remember exactly what they are anymore because I've settled on Gnome a while ago.

But it worked for me just fine.

Nothing is hard but it’s never the same as if a team specifically built everything to work from the get go. I have i3 set up on my laptops along with GNOME. But there are always little quirks if you add them on later.

@jackcpickup said in Finding hidden files on Windows:

WizTree will always be more accurate than those 2 due to how it discovers files, I can't remember enough to explain. It's also incredible quick at scanning compared to those 2 so always my preferred.

You can say that again.. I've never heard of it before.. Now to burn it into my memory.

I need to write the author and ask them to post it to Chocolatey.

Good idea.

I think I have it figured out.. when I'm back on that network I'll get a screen shot.

Hope to spend the afternoon testing it, have a few other pieces of gear to setup for it.

@nic good to see you here again

@dashrender said in Just one more failure...:

where people print out the old stuff, then scan that into a PDF then upload into the chart - don't ask why we don't just print to PDF

welcome! we even print emails and keep paper version stored for months. not legal stuff at all. just customers' orders

wow - sigh...

We have a doc who barely looks at the computer chart, frequently printing out the whole chart reviewing it.. then tossing it. We've discussed it as a company, and the doc was allowed to continue this because they were willing to pay for the paper costs themselves.

The doc is documenting fully in the EHR though.. so at least there is that.

@nerdydad said in O365 and MS's encrypted mail (portal):

Are these cox.net recipients repeat customers? If so, have you considered PGP keys between them?

LOL - they are spouses of the owners, etc, as well as customers. As mentioned in the OP about S/MIME, there is no chance the business, nor it's customers would deal with setting up a key exchange.

Hell, Edward Snowden barely go the journalist there to get a set of keys setup so he could trade messages with them, you really think you're going to get normal business people to do so? or house wives?

I’ve used downloadmorestorafe as well, but the site was down this morning.

Probable because you spelled it wrong.

Nah. Even when spelled correctly this morning, it still failed.

@jaredbusch said in How does your company make email address?:

ough. What do you do when Bob Smith quits after 20 years and then in a year you hire Bob Jones? All of Bob Smiths SPAM that was harvested over 20 years suddenly starts flowing in again because [email protected] is suddenly taking email again.

We have a mixed since the company has been in business for 20 years.

I've had that happen in finance and it was a disaster.

Yes, it is and even though I enforce it to have it the pattern we want people complain.

@dashrender said in Mileage tracking app - any suggestions?:

Well - apparently our tax advisors have stated that we only need to monitor driving habits for two weeks, then use that data to extrapolate the expected business trips and do math... /sigh.. whatever.

Yeah, that's way easier.

I can confirm that RDP works again.

@momurda said in Ug - can I buy a sorta not computer thing from Lenovo?:

The episode "Hated in the Nation" was most terrifying.
I wear earmuffs all the time now.

One of my favorites. San Junipero was, from my recollection, the only utopian future and it was by far the best episode.

Well disabling the realtime scan on Webroot has solved my issue.

/shrug.
