How will you combat the trolls

I am working on some backend tools to help with that.

Tee hee. "Backend" tools. I see what you did there.

I know that these things come up from time to time but I do not remember seeing this one discussed and it looked interesting. It is a command line password manager but with GUIs available. It's called Pass. Any one familiar?

Suspicious emails: unclaimed insurance bonds, diamond-encrusted safe deposit boxes, close friends marooned in a foreign country. They pop up in our inboxes, and standard procedure is to delete on sight. But what happens when you reply? Follow along as writer and comedian James Veitch narrates a hilarious, weeks-long exchange with a spammer who offered to cut him in on a hot deal.

It's the best state fair in the state.

@BRRABill Once had that with a vet clinic. Pure crap. Their software also stated that you couldn't run it on a virtualized environment. This is going back about 4 years.

I'm facing the exact same situation ... I cannot Virtualize a client's server, cause they run a third-party application, and the vendor says that they will not support the app, if it's running on a VM.... What a load of B.S !!

You can always just not tell them.

Voted for legal weed, condom-less porn, repealing the death penalty, affordable housing, and no more plastic bags today.

Ballot measures are weird in California.

My partner and I have had some disscussions around the thread, and we are going to try to config an SMB bundle with a real street cost, it will be heavily discounted (like enterprises get) without the haggle.

Now that's the kind of thing that we need. Great to see this thread making for a productive result and deliverable. Good job to everyone, I think.

Good morning coffee, oh how I love thee.

Man, I wish coffee still worked for me. Even if it didn't I still wish we didn't have shit coffee here.

Better to have shit coffee than coffee shits.

j/k good coffee with coffee shits is still good coffee.

Also purchasing a bunch of their switches as we are on 10/100 switches currently.

I suspect that people will notice the improvement pretty quickly.

I hope that everyone has fun today at the Quiditch match.

It appears to be a free, unlimited CRM product. Is anyone familiar with it? If so, any feedback?

Good news, OP here is taking our advice and going to use larger drives.

In other news, pigs flying today.

So you want the call to happen even without someone dialing from extension A? You want both phones to ring at once? What if the person at extension A gave up and left, or is on another call?

Heading home. As usual, the connectivity problem is upstream. We have 100 mbps / 20 mbps coaxial. Part of me would be happy with 20/20 fiber just for the potential difference in reliability.

It's not cable vs. fiber that makes for reliability, it is all about the vendor.

QuickBooks is the worst. If you've ever had to run around in a company with like five users on QB and deal with connection issues, shared drive issues, file corruption... it doesn't take much before QB becomes the main thing you are supporting.

Vultr is great, and it lets you use your own ISOs if you want, which isn't very common.
