I'm not familiar with the actual tech there but there might be some sort of sandbox/development/"ignore SSL cert errors" switch you could throw in the config somewhere temporarily?

No, that's the worst part of them. VGA sucks, but knowing that once you've screwed the cable in it's not coming out is great. An extra gently caress you to manufacturers who think downward facing HDMI ports are a good idea (I'm looking at you Sharp). I wish more video formats used BNC like SDI does.

I hata vga for that very reason. I would rather a cord get a snag and then unplugged instead of a monitor getting pulled over. Its also better in a tight space where you have to feel your way around. Inputs/outputs should not need to be screwed in.

I despise having to screw and unscrew VGA/DVI cables, especially in tiny spaces between display and post on monitors that don't swivel or rotate. DP cables have that little latch/button, HDMI is a little less reliable but they usually stay in place unless for some reason they are frequently pulled on or subjected to lateral force in which case that's a foresight issue and a cord coming unplugged is a better outcome than an entire device being yanked around anyway. Worst case scenario I could see something using the two prongs like parallel ports.

To be fair, my complaints aren't desktop monitor based, this is all wall mounted stuff, lots of it displays in a high vibration factory type environment, HDMI sliding out is an issue that comes up. I don't remember the last time I saw an actual full sized DisplayPort, MiniDP sure, but that gets turned into HDMI before it goes into the monitors.

Thanks Ants posted:Mini DisplayPort is loving terrible Especially if you have to go to full DP, that stupid port comes unplugged any time I so much as look at it funny. Which thankfully is only about once every 9 months or so, which is enough time for me to forget all about my monitor going from DP to mini DP on my graphics card.

The only place I've seen MiniDP in the real world is on my Vive's breakout box and a friend's Macbook Pro. All my GPUs and onboard video with DP use the full size connector, as do my capable monitors. I don't like the latch because my monitor has terrible design and it's hard to grip the cable properly to push the button to unlatch it. I prefer the older screw style connections because you can choose whether or not to make them "permanent". Screw them in and they're not going anywhere, but if you want quick switching you leave it loose. Everyone wins.

I'm finishing up my third of three days off. I saw the therapist for the second time. So far we just talk, and I meander through different parts of my life. It's pretty mellow. It's weird to talk about myself, especially without being constantly contradicted or nullified. I'm wondering if this will be the extent of the therapy, just talking and getting some feedback now and then. For $13 per visit I can afford to keep going to see how things go. So only two days of work to this short week, and I will plan to take a full week off in the next few months. Even if I just sit at home it's better than being at work. I think I'll have to buy a couple of laptops for people so that's more points on my credit card. Last I looked at my Amazon account I think I was up over $200 in points.

Don't undersell how important that is. Soon you'll start piecing things together and understanding more how things affect you. You also should start thinking about how you may have been affected by certain factors in life and reading about them. I had a giant series of breakthroughs when I picked up the book "Adult children of alcoholics" which examines how living as a child with an alcoholic parent changes your behavior. It also works for most kinds of dysfunctional home environments not just parental alcoholism.

The IT division wants to have a summer party for the employees, however HR doesn't want us to have any alcohol because "people who don't drink alcohol might get offended". I guess we could eat cake and do team-building stuff like trust falls or some poo poo. yaaaay.

Your therapist is teasing out parts of your life that made/make you the way that you are. Talking through things is part of the process, but you'll possibly start getting into mindfulness, CBT, or something else.

I guess we could eat cake and do team-building stuff like trust falls or some poo poo. yaaaay. It's a valid concern, but HR sucks at phrasing if they said it's offensive. If you can't drink, or you're trying to stay sober (think of the dirty secret of alcoholism in this industry if you want a non-religious reason), having the big party be full of booze and little else is a big "you don't belong" sign from your co-workers. It's not offensive, it's just thoughtless. The good news is that grown up companies can work around this by offering booze AND having decent drink substitutes (real mocktails, not just "here's your Coke"), along with stuff to do that isn't just drinking at each other. That's work, though, so it's easier to just ban the booze and make everyone suffer.

For those of you curious for the latest chapter of the saga of Marvin Today I heard some Strange and Wonderful Racism from him, which is much less funny than Strange and Wonderful IT Theories, and also mostly offtopic for the thread*, but he did drop a few IT jewels, such as: - Steve Jobs invented the laptop docking station, then Bill Gates stole it and patented it. (EDIT: That's why there's no such thing as a Mac docking station.) - The only difference between laptop power bricks is the form factor. If "they" would just standardize the power port, all power adapters would work on all laptops. - Not being able to plug DDR2 RAM into a DDR3 slot and vice versa is a Microsoft plot to force you to buy new RAM with a new computer. Otherwise it would work like hard drives, which are also storage devices so the analogy is correct and exact, where there's been one plug change in 20 years. - The below (image from google, I assure you his are worse) is a perfectly good way to cut and terminate network cable, just put a boot over it so people "don't get their panties in a twist" about it.  - The proper way to clean a desktop computer's fan is to remove it, wipe it with a wet paper towel, and reinstall it. - The proper way to clean a laptop computer's fan is to hit it with the compressed air until it screams. (The one that isn't is him calling a situation "as complicated as a Japanese typewriter" - only he didn't say Japanese...) sfwarlock fucked around with this message at 04:38 on Aug 24, 2017 |

This one is kinda true, 99% of laptop power adapters are 19V and they'd work for 99% of laptops if the physical plug was standardized

A power adapter with higher amperage isn't going to hurt your laptop. However, if you have a Samsung that wants a 15v adapter and you plug in an hp 19v adapter, you will have a bad time
