Internet Explorer posted:Not sure where Chrome comes into play, but you can do webcam offloading to the client for a lot of the popular video conferencing solutions in Citrix/Horizon/WVD. I know it supposed to do that, but as far as I know its not working yet. Or maybe it is, but only for some test users. I just find it hilarious that its been two years, and people can't join a Zoom call with video because of that, and the security group refusing to make firewall exceptions.

I feel like I have a boring computer room compared to some of you nerds. Just landed $newHouse for $newJob. Going to take the opportunity to step it up, maybe throw some RGB lights around.

The last time I was “required” to be on camera was last February when I had to present in the CIO’s staff meeting. My cat Rocky (RIP) had a talent for knowing when I’m on important calls and of course spent my whole presentation walking in front of my face and punctuating my talking points with an emphatic “MOW”

Nobody says anything.MF_James posted:I'm confused by something with azure vpn tunnels. When I create a routebased tunnel, azure reserves 5IPs for failover, tunnel interface etc. No where in their documentation can I find what the IP of their side of the tunnel interface will be. Looking at my Azure route-based VPN configured on my FortiGate they are interface routes, so there's no next-hop address. You get a far end address if you use BGP.

For me, I pretty much always prefer camera off, but I know there is a diversity of opinion on this. My laptop came with gorilla tape covering the camera lens, guess someone else had it first. I have not removed it. For interviews and such I put some local scenery as a background because where I live is very obviously poor-person accommodations and I want to remove the chance for prejudice.

You should have a next-hop on the fortigate, though it's been a while since i've messed with one so maybe not. Finally found the answer buried, they want you to configure a /28 for the subnet, but when you actually configure it on the firewall they want you to configure a /30, their documentation also says to place this /30 somewhere else in Azure, but I get an error when trying to put it there. Also, reviewing config on another tenant /30 does not exist in said place either so it must not be that important. Still not getting the tunnel to come up, I've probably done something wrong on the ASA but I'm angry at this now.

Most places don't require webcams on. Most see it as pain in the rear end. It's best to establish a precedent as yourself "that guy who just doesn't work that way'" Most do it under pressure , and admire you for your steadfastness. If somebody says something, just say "I don't want to". They can't pressure you that much

Re cameras and meetings: I turn my camera on if there's someone senior to me that has theirs on, or if I'm talking enough that my body language and facial expressions help with communication. Or if it's a social meeting, like I have a monthly with other IT leadership guys in different companies where we just talk about the industry.

No cameras here - I don't have room for a private home office, and I don't invite random people into my livingroom. I find it important to have something in this hellscape rona world thats just mine, so work colleagues aren't invited to see my bomb-site of a lounge. On a positive note - GOT OFFERED A JOB YESTERDAY ! Back to 9-5 Mon-Fri and no more 12 hour day and night shifts every week with no weekends or public holidays off. Shift work may have paid the bills during the current mess, but its no way to live.

I will also bet actual dollars that the product team did not consider basic questions like "what happens when the internet goes down". I say this because my former employer sells a PBX solution to healthcare, and when they tried to migrate from on-prem to cloud, they did not consider basic questions like "what happens when the internet goes down".

Our ssl decryption was half broken for the past half year because of a typo in a cidr block. We fixed it 2 days ago and it broke basically every developers ability to run builds on their local laptop and they're all losing their minds. One dev had a meltdown in a company-public slack channel. This is juicy We had been advocating for years to not do dev work on laptops and we would provision cloud resources much more powerful for dev work but always get huge flack

Fun trivia question: anyone know how to find official specifications for temperature thresholds on AMD processors? This isn't about "how hot is too hot," that's easy to google. What I'm curious about is if AMD publishes a specsheet showing the manufacturer specified limits. Me and a co-worker can find nothing, it's all forum posts from users parroting the same numbers.

webcam chat: In large meetings it's camera off, mic on mute. 1 on 1's I'll usually turn the camera on. I rotate through a bunch of different backgrounds, most of them are very stupid and I will intentionally choose the silliest one for any given occasion. Some of my past favourites have been:     Most people will laugh and make a comment about it, but nobody has told me outright to stop doing it.

whoo boy what a loving day. just ended a 6.5 hour meeting about disaster recovery and backups and storage. Basically we are just getting around to doing anything about documentation and DR procedures but also we need space to do that. I started out the backups meeting by reminding everyone that we still have 2 basically empty HP left hands that we could utilize in the interim but we delved immediately into price comparing some solutions that basically reinvented the wheel to add another SAN. Then my boss realized that we could just buy a cheap SAN and we spent forever price shopping SANs. Then we spent about an hour going over our infrastructure presumably because nobody even knew what we were using 2 left hands and 4 other SANs for already. Then I asked the question again "why can't we just use this empty left hand for backup jobs?" Then my boss had a great idea all on his own and totally independent of all the discussion, "why can't we just use this empty left hand for the backup jobs?" My favorite part though was when my boss asked "why hasn't any of this been done already?" as if nobody had ever thought of it. Couldn't possibly be because we get shot down and 'reprioritized' every time someone brings it up. Nope. Definitely not that. I mean it's your department. You micromanage like 8 employees. You of all people should know why we haven't "done this yet." It ended with him tasking our 2 newest techs with "figuring out how to send everything to an S3 bucket."
