You sure bitch about everything a lot

FTFY

I complain about a lot of things, sure. However I also have made many comments about how much I enjoy working there, how much I care about my job, some of the great people I work with, and so on. I don't deal well with people who are lazy or apathetic at the store, because that job is very personal to me. It's the reason I'm good at my job and why people come back to see ME and ONLY me. So yes, I complain. But it's because I'm frustrated by things that I can't fix, and I'm the kind of person who likes to fix things.

Is it bigger than the Note 3 or a couple other Android phones? If yes, fine. If not, still doesn't stand.

Note 3 is 5.7", iPhone 6+ is 5.5". Among the largest phones. Large enough that it's crossing into the "when is it an iPad" territory. Large enough that I'd call it a tablet, not a phone. If you can't use it as a phone, it's not a phone.

That's not THAT big. I've seen phones bigger than the Note 3. Now those are nuts. However, that can be a nice size, for some things. I like my S4, as it's a little smaller, and therefore more compact.

Well I have an iPad, that is 10". We are into a game of calling tablets phones. There are 7" and 10" iPads. And there are 4.7" and 5.5" iPhones. The gap between the largest phone and the smallest tablet isn't as big as between the two tablets. Basically you now have any size you want within reasonable granularity. So size isn't really a factor anymore.

Any complaints about size now are really just excuses. Nearly all phones come in nearly all sizes.

That is true.

This just seems small to me.

I know that's what your girl said to you the other night. Ohhhhhhhhhhh, burn!

I've got plenty packing, thank you very much. Now you on the other hand...

It also depends on the problem. I've worked in Student Information systems that were buggy as all get out. Sure, IT can work aroudn the issues with a few SQL Queries and patch the problem until it happens again... But instead, we should call the vendor and see what their recommendations are first. If they say "We'll fix it later"... Then "A patching we will go... "

People soft? I always say replace the crappy software.

Staples still uses that for their associate connection site. They've used it for many years.

Now I thought I'd scheduled my cron job to reboot the FiOS router last night at 5AM EDT but I accidentally enabled WAN telnet and not local telnet, so it didn't.

You enabled telnet on the WAN! =O

Yeah, that was an accident. I meant to enable it over the LAN. I'm not worried. Anyone could have figured out the username (it's "admin") but the password is fully complex and 17 characters. It was open like that for 12 hours tops. Everything was fine.

I'm thinking that the watch actually would help to keep me "technology free." I can't be disconnected but it lets me less "involved."

Why can't you ever be disconnected? I personally think you "need" to be more than you really need to be.

Apparently, MS now "drops" software like record labels "drop" albums. Word.

I see what you did there...

@JaredBusch said:

You all forget that it is AJ, the thief, that stated in the other thread to just use the DNS and DHCP because it did not matter if you had CALs or not.

STFU @JaredBusch.

That's my other gripe with iPhones, personally. I like a bigger phone. The iPhone feels tiny to me.

How big do you want? The new iPhone 6+ is enormous. That's a small tablet, not a phone.

Folder Redirection provides all the same benefits as Roaming Profiles

It's not the same. It is similar but it's only used for certain folders. Roaming profiles will do everything including AppData and the registry items.

It was a generalization. He could probably setup folder redirection for documents, etc and then just use roaming profiles for the AppData, etc. The question is, moving away from Citrix, do people still need all that AppData info synced?

Hmmm....interesting. I did not know this piece of info...

Obvious reasons are obvious.

insert confused face here

Folder Redirection provides all the same benefits as Roaming Profiles without the long login/logoff times due to the syncing. It's a much better approach. It'll also be easier to setup for you.

Womens pants really don't have front pockets. You are lucky if a tick tack can fit in some of them. Bra or back pockets are where it has to go!

Have you tried hard setting the duplex & speeds and also maybe try a cross-over cable between them.

Most modern networking devices don't care about the pattern of the wires, as long as it's consistent. They can make almost anything work.
