I'm going need to rack a PowerEdge somewhere before I'm done setting up the system. What's the cheap/easy way ensure remote access without exposing iDRAC remotely? Raspberry Pi jump box with another Ethernet adapter?

When that's happening in the win10 task manager can you sort by Disk and see which processes are using it? A more coarse way of doing this without rebooting would be going to the Startup tab in Task Manager and sorting by Startup Impact. Anything interesting there? You could always disable and reboot and see if it changes anything... basically do a startup process elimination diet.

Post your minidumps or run then through the windbg analyzer. I had a BSOD caused by my Microsoft Natural Keyboard from 2004. Kernel mode volume control

So I looked at the crash dumps and they are all over the place... two of them were Intel related affecting intelppm and semav6msr64.sys so it might be worth trying to get the latest Intel driver updates here. Given that they were all different reasons it is far more likely hardware like bad memory or power supply. You've already run memtest, do you have a way to try a different power supply? Your BIOS does look like it has an update, but it looks like it's labeled as speculative execution related and not a feature or bug update. Still might be worth a shot.

Chumbawumba4ever97 posted:thanks a poo poo ton. You won't believe this but the computer turned off in the middle of the bios update (i have no idea how or why). now the computer won't boot. gigabyte claims this motherboard has dual bios so if a bios flash goes bad it will boot to the other one, but i tried everything i've read online to get it to work (hold down power and reset for 10 seconds) but this motherboard does not seem to want to switch to the backup bios chip. some more expensive boards from gigabyte have a physical switch but this one doesn't. Yeah, it basically comes down to voltage glitches do weird things. It's kind of a cop-out answer too, which is why it would have been cool if you could test/eliminate with a PSU swap. I briefly looked at your manual, it seems like they don't tell you how to switch to the backup BIOS at all except intimating that it will auto-detect an unsuccessful boot and switch. Not sure what to do other than to talk to Gigabyte or seek out other people with that board on the Internet. Sorry your flash didn't work out.

I feel like this thread or its predecessors was where someone mentioned pfatt, a pfsense script that used netgraph to bypass the AT&T provided CPE so you could use your own hardware from the ONT. Well it's 2020 now and apparently you can downgrade the firmware on the AT&T CPE and throw some query params at it, get a shell, and extract the device's certs so you can use wpa_supplicant to do EAP directly and get that stupid AT&T box off of your network.

The only issue I've had with namecheap is that if you use their email aliasing they will do some filtering on their end, maybe it's better now idk. If you're going to have GSuite handle your mail that's not an issue.

I had a cheap toner cartridge dump toner dust all over the inside of my printer. is there a set of right angle and cone nozzles for a standard vacuum cleaner? I tried the shop vac and upright but neither suck enough to pull up everything even partially taped to “shape” suction, it’s really far back in. I’d rather suck out than use the air compressor and risk getting it everywhere.

the scenario i'm thinking of is your machine which you plugged into the router got handed a lease that conflicted with something on that other box. Wouldn't be an issue until both are plugged in simultaneously. if you had an IP address conflict between your pinging device and something on the other box, you'd experience intermittent connectivity.

I want to go from 1T to 4T SSD but only have one m.2 slot on my compy. I'm assuming easiest way is:
writing this out, it almost seems that backing up and just reinstalling on the new drive would be easier. If I decide to go through with this any idea of a good NVMe 2-disk cradle/cloner that can attach USB/TB?

Are there any alternatives to Twilio/Telnyx/SignalWire that you've used? I'm trying to create phone numbers, have them receive SMSes, and either poll or get a webhook then react to the content of the message. The site sending them hasn't received them using numbers fronted by any of those. Maybe they're all backed by the same providers; I tried a Google Voice number and it didn't get it either.

no better place to ask this: What do your companies do for phone or tablet replacement? trying to come up with a replacement policy for company phones and tablets (we issue iPhones and iPads). I want to make it really simple, like laptops which are 48 months or until the battery is hosed. The idea was warranty and battery issues creep up on Lenovos past four years. so with Apple devices something like 48 months (for security updates)?

how can I find a business that still works on printers? I have an HP workgroup color laser that is completely worthless for color printing ever since I bought some cheap toner from SA Mart. Red prints as pink. the thing has genuine toner in it now but still prints hosed up colors. I think it needs its guts cleaned or smth idk. do I need to look in my metro for someone that can service this thing?

Pile Of Garbage posted:yeah probably. it's a lenovo X1 where the ethernet port comes as a separate cable that you have to plugin to the laptop maybe that's got something to do with it idk. also 802.1x has been broken since i upgraded it to win11 so i can't connect to the corp network via the ethernet either. mines an X1 too. I can force click on to WiFi to be on both simultaneously but it will never do that on its own. I’m using the Lenovo thunderbolt 4 dock (garbage) as Ethernet as well. I could probably script something using netsh if I took the time to learn powershell

not sure if there's a better yospos thread for this but what data stack would you look at using in 2022 if you're trying to move an org from piles of CSVs and spreadsheets into actually querying structured data from a centralized repository, but are just guessing at access patterns? at a high level, right now this org pulls in commodity pricing data (daily cadence), economic data (monthly/quarterly), other data like temperature for zip codes, and these just collect in piles of files. Then the researchers use Excel or R or Python to analyze what they want. I'd love for these to be cataloged better, not on a SMB drive, and more so that we can use more automation and cloud stuff, or make Excel faster by using an ODBC connector instead of every spreadsheet having <giant worksheet of every data point ever since I might need/want it in my analysis> I've used Fivetran / Snowflake / Matillion before, but that was 2019ish and the project was more about normalizing two ERPs for consistent reporting. Snowflake seemed cool but FiveTran's pricing model seemed really annoying. Panoply looks cool seems to only support Redshift and BigTable. In addition to the CSVs above I'd also love to be able to slap quickbooks, great plains, and other integrations into this easily.

I’ve never heard of anything like that but it seems possible, but I would also think disabling secure boot would invalidate that Yeah you did everythign I would have thought to do, short of "reset bios to all defaults" for good measure. That has a very low probability of doing anything though. I haven't had windows installs muck up like that since installing NT4 with -0x or whatever switches.

I have an AWS ALB that has routes to require auth via OIDC to view web pages on an internal Django CRUD app I control. Works great. I want to be able to allow API users (who are still employees) to query the API hanging off this service, but obviously if I run e.g. curl without a AWSELBAuthSessionCookie set it will redirect me using OIDC to login.microsoftonline.com. Is there a standard workflow to use OIDC to get an auth token for API? Right now all I can think of is to set the ALB to let /api/ routes through and do auth at the app level but that sucks. Perfect would be some sort of MSFT portal that would give you an auth token you could set for a request.

Work monitor on Win11 is acting weird. Display looks good but the text "bounces" for a split second and then corrects. Not predictable and most noticable in high-contrast zones like small numbers on spreadsheets and YOSPOS. My setup is: Lenovo X1 <-> ThinkPad dock <-> DP cable to ThinkVision LEN P44w-10 running in 3840x1200. No HDR and I've tried changing the monitor's control panel from DP 1.4 to downgrade to 1.2 (to no effect, in fact it might behave worse). Is this a lovely cable? It's this one: https://www.amazon.com/DisplayPort-Braided-32-4Gbps-Compatible-Monitor/dp/B07VVJZJ2P/ but looking back I think I was trying to alleviate this problem so maybe it's just back? I tried to capture what's going on with my iPhone but you can't really see anything but moire patterns through the camera. Hed fucked around with this message at 20:04 on Mar 8, 2024 |

Thank you both. The resolution is correct on the monitor. I can't seem to get the firmware update tool to run (even in admin mode, it doesn't detect the monitor, I'll have to try to bypass the dock later when I have more time). I'm running 1.3 right now. I did set the refresh rate down from 144 to 100Hz and it seems to be behaving much better. That might have fixed it. When you say you use USB-C do you really just use USB-C to drive the monitor? I realize I didn't elaborate we use our X1s <-> TB4 dock <-> DP cable <-> P44w-10. I can look at using USB-C over TB4 or going out USB-C to the monitor from the dock, but that will be a mindblown thing based on my understanding of the interfaces. Right now we like what we do since it's 1 Thunderbolt cable to connect for everything when docked.

Was on a Teams call the other day and I actually got a decent summary + "next actions" emailed to me shortly after the call. I asked the guy hosting it (and recording it) what he used and it sounds like he stuck the audio recording into his copilot subscription (I think?). Is there something similar that will do the summary+actions suggestion for internal meetings? For EZ button purposes I was considering trialing poo poo like Teams Premium for the org but figuring out who is saying something is probably a lot easier when every participant has their own video stream, etc. Would we be able to get something to record the meeting (our conference rooms have great audio) and suss out main points of who said what or is it going to be absolute garbage.
