Would like to know what you come up with. Personally I have 2 windows 10 machines both connected via ethernet to the same router but I can't use RDP without buying another Win 10 Pro license.

VNC. You want VNC. We have some use cases where VNC is going to be the best solution (one vendor's software simply doesn't work over RDP), so we're going to do a formal Security Risk Assessment and buy some licenses for RealVNC.

What you want is, the cheap option, a TightVNC server on the remote machine and use RealVNCs Viewer app to connect to it. I've tested both Tight and Real for connecting to my headless media Mac; TightVNC is seconds per frame while Real Viewer is almost real time.

Or, RealVNC server Professional tier is $40/year. For businesses they have an interesting helpdesk option. You pay for named technicians who can then connect to any of your devices to handle use support. It's more expensive than a device license, but vastly cheaper than whatever Bomgar is called now.

Can you talk about what the problem(s) are with TeamViewer?

Unattended access is bad enough, the security holes just make it worse. The protocols we're working on explicitly include one of our employees opening the "door" for the vendor or other 3rd party, then explicitly calling for them to stop sharing and end the WebEx/Zoom session at the end.

With Dave it's mostly his live streams where he'll go off on how Trump is good because people voted for him or why Brexit is good because they voted for it. I don't think he's entirely ingrained in the beliefs, but he's onboard with what's going on.

I have the opposite situation where I use TightVNC server to control about 100 windows boxes and it's quick and fluid with the TightVNC client but if anyone is using RealVNC to connect it's dogshit slow.

The video he deleted was linked in the prior reply. It takes him less than 2 minutes to start bitching about a women abusing social services.

Keep in mind that people provide the absolute best one-sided version of the story when they tell it, and he comes off as a MRA shithead in the best possible telling of the story.

He met his Indian wife over the internet and tried to bring her into the country on a tourist visa. When that failed he tried to bring his internet wife and her mother into the country on tourist visas.

He was declined because he failed to provide his source of income, YouTube, which he stopped posting on. He literally used the income stream he stopped using as the way he'd support Indian bride. Oficials didn't buy his "I make 50 grand a year" despite not posting videos.

I don't disagree. It's hard to listen to because of that, and because a lot of the interjections aren't really all that funny and their delivery kinda sucks and wandering and then they laugh at their jokes too much. So i put it on at 1.5x or whatever

Another spring commute
Ironically the bonus Patreon episodes that they started as jokes on Groverhaus or lovely van that Liam bought are their best content because people besides DNE have interesting stuff to say about the topic and their tangents are usually still at least somewhat related to the main topic.

WTYP is fine but I get that not everybody has the stomach to listen to Liam and Alice yank the mic away and tangent about something completely unrelated for 10 minutes.

I actually think what they need is another engineering type to balance it out, then DoNotEat can go on engineering tangents with them too.

Same, I tried listening to the Lac-Mégantic one because it was a colossal fuckup on every level and hearing about it from an engineering and policy standpoint should be interesting, but the other people were unbearable. It'd be fine if they were actually funny, but their idea of comedy seems to be saying something dumb followed by chanting ~praaaaxiiiiiis~. Combined with the undercurrent of weird contempt for the victims because they were rurals, it made me lose interest in checking out any other episodes.

like sage said, spirit animal is typically a native or indigenous peoples concept that's been colonized. to use it in a callous or trite way would be like ignoring someones preferred pronouns

You never learn anything
by doing it right.


Well There's Your Problem is something that I put on when I'm zoning out playing shootermans games and I switch between paying attention to the podcast and paying attention to the game based on who's talking. DNE gets 100% of my attention, Liam gets it about half the time based on the subject, and Alice I usually tune out completely because - as other posters have said - I just don't find her to be very funny. I appreciate the knowledge that she brings to the podcast and some of her feedback, but a lot of her jokes just fizzle to me.

Still something I listen to routinely, though. The Spirit Animal thing is fucky but at least it's a passive dipshit "I never thought of it before" faux pas instead of the intentional rear end in a top hat "HAHA TRIGGERED LIBS???" trolling. DNE himself is a goon and would probably suggest to the others to knock that poo poo off if someone brought it up to them.

It's alright, we all got conditioned to use it for a long time. Don't beat yourself up tho that's not productive or constructive

it is uranium grade trolling material tho. First nations people have been hosed over almost eternally and have a known history of what now adays would be called queer or trans, inhabiting multiple genders at once, not just the binary ones. So seeing lgbtq spaces or adjacent spaces not recognize them sticks in my craw. You accepted the feedback tho so don't sweat it
