Its about as bad as modern Norton is. McAfee's namesake is not the strength of his infosec skills, but that he invented the Antivirus software idea to begin with. That's about it. He drove state to state installing his antivirus on anyone's machine who would buy it. https://www.chepicap.com/en/news/3409/cybersecurity-expert-disses-john-mcafee-technically-incompetent-schmuck-.html John McAfee is the equivalent of an anti-vaxxer: He markets fear, and claims to have the solution. And yeah, he tries to gently caress whales and his girlfriend was someone who tried to kill him, and he's probably a murderer. Like the ReiserFS guy.

i use my phone for pretty much everything now bc faceID is my favorite thing ever and a mac mini bc i wanted the cheapest way to get the t2 chip to play around with i have my windows tower that i use now just for plex and to play my modded mgsv save so i can develop all the online only stuff and when i need to do random emulation crap for my projects bc its just way easier than learning osx methods. i also run win 10 on my arcade cabinet, which runs on an fragile angel's breath of hacks, workarounds, lovely single use applications that i found in the dark corners of github and sourceforge, prayer, and launchbox. i've had to troubleshoot this poo poo for no lie dozens of hours to get it to the almost working state it is now. Never has the issue been because it's Windows 10. its a stupid anecdote and an edge case but at this point being a win 7 warrior just doesnt make sense

For NMCI specifically, the Win10 update broke a ton of poo poo that has taken a long time to sort out. People were having a ton of issues with it not recognizing CACs and printer mapping being AFU. When it's actually working properly it gets up to the level of "acceptable", but it's a huge struggle getting to that point. And now the latest update they just released broke second monitor capability, so people have been stuck using the little laptop screens.

Weird that it hasn't happened to mine, I run triple monitors at the house and double at the office. The only thing Windows 10 has broken so far for me was the Windows/Linux subsystem got overwritten after an update and wiped out my Ubuntu install. Its also hilarious that Windows Defender is outpacing Norton and McAfee as an antivirus, and they are rolling out sandbox for both user and the antivirus for testing/detonating files. Defender is better than McAfee at this point.

Oh poo poo you all bitching about NMCI? Never served but goddamn I hate Navy IT with a passion (sorry lingcod) I’m a contractor supervising other contractors doing contractor things on a navy base. Half our team is off site working remotely at non-Navy (but government) facilities on any given day. Remote access with our navy laptops is vital. A recent win 10 patch broke like half our machines. They technically work but reboot every half hour to hour. I got told I was crazy by NMCI a bunch until I pulled up some patch management thing I found by googling my issue* and saw that the patch was stuck in a limbo of broken verification. The dude on the other end was baffled and is having someone come out to my office sometime next week. This is not idea for our offsite workers, as hanging around the base for a week makes doing their jobs kind of impossible. *googled using what ever browser NMCI lets me use today. Yesterday it was chrome, now that’s uninstalled and I need Firefox, tomorrow I’ll probably be back to chrome. If it’s a bad day I’ll be on IE. Not Edge, IE. Bookmarks? Why would a person need those?

Man, Win10 already starts up faster than I can take my shoes off so any gains in that sense are pretty much irrelevant. Whereas a thumb drive that promised to get rid of all the Macafee poo poo and all the other bloatware on a military computer is probably the best opportunity to turn a lot of people into a Russian spy.

Has anyone talked about tryin to use ArcGIS in a job that loving requires ArcGIS and has for at least a decade and a half? Zooming in on a map should not take a full five minutes to process. One setting wrong? Enjoy a week of mysterious crashing before anyone can figure out what the poo poo is wrong!

It's gotten better and more stable. It went from "crashing upon boot" to "able to take a smoke break while it renders" in about five years.

Well a lot of the windows startups are happening in the background after login; if you run a steam box or need PCs to launch in a kiosk mode, you're gonna notice the speed launching the thing we want. Additionally, none of those background processes are going to waste writes to Temp, which you will occasionally notice hit your performance.

Yea that’s every computer I’ve ever used ArcGIS on. I ended up changing the settings of what renders at which zoom level, but that can only go so far. I had a ton of sonar and magnetic data to try and collate, and the magnetic data wasn’t nearly as dense as a LIDAR cloud...but it was a pretty good effort

ArcGIS Pro is better, though that's going to be bound to what computer you're using, and the Windows install. That said I've never used it on a government computer which goes a long way towards ruining everything.

Yea I was an intern working for the state of N.C., at a branch that’s largely forgotten and most people don’t even know exists. Thankfully my study area was small, but that’s little consolation when I’m using LiDAR data into creating a topographic map, and looking for shipwrecks based on the results. The laser penetrated the water juuuuuust enough to pick up the sand ripples in shallow water, and the thought was that if my contour interval was tuned right, I could pick up a sharp vertical relief and check to see if it was a ship’s hull. It was...a good thought, and hilariously resource intensive.

You'll be happy(?) to know that Arc's main competitor, MapInfo, is exactly as bad at crashing and changing zoom levels. The latest version basically assumes your'e loading your data from an SSD and tries to render it with that in mind, so if you are, you're going to have a better time, but if you're loading off a regular platter, or satan help you a network source with a slow connection, your professional life will be a misery. I use QGIS when I'm consulting, it's basically Arc only free. It doesn't really do anything Arc doesn't do, but it's open source.

Going to de-lurk here for a sec as I have to use this trash far to often. Give Global Mapper a try, it's not free but it's stupid cheap, and it handles large lidar sets very well.

I used to think the airforce did dumb things, working for the army i am not sure how you guys got things done. so part of the army (Inscom) now requires you to get the Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate (MCSA) certificate just to work on their network, however ARCYBER just requires you to take the skillport training. I work in a building that I have to deal with both networks
