To my mind if the bank can't prove that he hasn't paid off his mortgage (or has no record of him ever having a mortgage) then the house ought to be his, free and clear, since he has the deed. But who knows.

Some executives are about to understand why IT was always asking for more budget and they are going to regret not giving it to them

Maybe one of the executives will resign and get rewarded with a mega bonus so the others won’t have to. This will only happen if public outrage will lead to politicians starting to meddle in the discussion if they think they can win votes from it.

I don't like the product. They once were a bit special in terms of the feature set but the NG platform that they want everybody to use is missing features compared to the old HiveManager, and the old HiveManager is so underprovisioned now that I can regularly see a 30-minute long queue to push configurations to devices and that makes it unusable if you're wanting to try some settings out. I guess there are still use cases they fit really well - multiple branch locations where you want to ship APs out and have them auto-provision based on things like public IP and tunnel back, endless tweaking of all the radio parameters to get your particular traffic working perfectly. They just didn't work for us - the number of radio settings mean that different support techs tell you that you need to have things set in ways that contradict each other, you can't go direct to Aerohive for support outside of the USA, we had obvious software bugs blamed on interference, the mounting hardware is absolutely terrible. The hardware isn't bad, but I can't see where they are meant to fit into the market. All the other pure-WiFi vendors have been acquired by somebody else, and I can't see how Aerohive will continue on their own.

They are very popular with VARs because they give 40 points on the sale, where as something like Cisco is 8 or less. I have one sitting on my desk i need to test out in our isolation chamber. I'm curious if their radio performs as bad as a Cisco AP when you fully load it with mixed traffic types.

For what it's worth I had about 8 of their Wave 1 AC product (AP230) installed in an office environment, spent a year on-and-off with support trying to tweak the radio performance and always having random issues with passing multicast traffic or data rates dropping through the floor, replaced them all with cheap Aruba AP-303 devices and the difference is night and day. Yes I have lost features, only some of which I used, but the complaints have stopped completely. The final straw was a six week long case I had open with support where private PSKs stored on the cloud would randomly not authenticate, but PPSKs stored in the APs worked fine. Gave them packet captures, tried different WAN links, had Aerohive tell me they weren't seeing any issues despite the logs saying that RADIUS auth had failed. The last update on that case was asking me to try again, seeing everything was working fine and then getting an acknowledgement that something had been broken in their cloud service for two months. They also had the LED in the APs fail early, so 'fixed' it by having it blink once every minute instead of providing a constant feedback of the status of the units, and wouldn't replace the hardware for a fixed revision.

Vulture Culture posted:It means the bank still has a lien on the house but has no record of any money being paid towards the lien Nope, it might actually mean the house is free and clear of the debt and the guy now legally owns it outright. I don't know the exact mechanisms, but I know that during the foreclosure fest that was the 2008 meltdown, it turned out that while selling the mortgages to anybody and everybody, banks just lost a shitload of the paperwork and if they can't prove they have the mortgage, it effectively doesn't exist in at least some circumstances.

Zorak of Michigan posted:Fellow work-from-home types: anyone have a recommendation for a stereo Bluetooth headset? I'm trying to find something comfortable enough to wear all day, with enough battery life to wear all day, a mic that doesn't pick up too much background noise, and with a hard mute button, so I don't have to unlock my phone before I interrupt someone and tell them that we're definitely not doing what they want. Oh, and I have a big fat head, so I'm looking for something without too much clamping force, too. Currently I'm looking at the Jabra Evolve 75 or Plantronics Voyager 8200, and leaning toward the Plantronics. I got the Plantronics 8200 recently, and love it. Very comfortable to wear, the ANC is comfortable and works well, sound quality is great, battery time is amazing. None of the Jabra I tried recently has as good fit or sound clarity.

Dell publish a really nice guide for the minimum/maximum rail spacing that their various rack mount options support https://www.dell.com/learn/us/en/555/business~solutions~engineering-docs~en/documents~rail-rack-matrix.pdf Does anybody know if there's an HPE equivalent? Specifically the rails 663201-B21, which are for a DL360 Gen9 (SFF, ball bearing).

We just dump the livestreaming events onto youtube live and it works, given the low volumes i would give it a shot in a testing enviroment(book the room you want to cast and have some people log in remotely from the campus) and see if it fits the bill. Just remember to set the livestreams as link-only.

YouTube is probably best if you don't want to be streaming on a primarily gamer's platform. Both should do embedded video streaming too.

Are you going to be streaming a camera input or doing like a screen capture style thing? I have some experience using OBS for streaming so I could offer some pointers on that.

Tab8715 posted:Why should I hate electron? If you have a web app that you're looking to turn in to a local app Electron makes it pretty simple. The downside is that apps made with it tend to be fairly heavy on memory and to a lesser extent CPU. Also it has all the baggage associated with the Javascript/nodeJS community. Make your own judgement from there. I'd rather things not see Javascript used outside the browser all else being equal, but I also don't bitch too much and three of my most used apps (Atom, Discord, Slack) are all Electron based.

I’m unsure what to do with one of my users. She got a brand new Dell latitude laptop (don’t have exact model but she beefed everything up) and is complaining the fans are too loud. She consistently leaves SAS on along with tons of word and excel files, also R Studio and other stats software. Never reboots. Leaves browsers open. I told her that’s kinda normal when you’re stressing a CPU out. Am I wrong? I feel like if you wanna do all this crazy math stuff maybe you should have gotten a desktop build?
