re ISP bullshit, if your provider is doing something like VDSL in last mile with a VLAN then you'll need an 802.1q bridge which looks like this on cisco (my ISP puts data on VLAN 2):

code:
interface Ethernet0
 description *** VDSL0 ***
 no ip address
 no ip redirects
!
interface Ethernet0.2
 description *** VDSL0_DATA ***
 encapsulation dot1Q 2
 no ip redirects
 bridge-group 1
!
interface Vlan1
 description *** WAN ***
 no ip address
 no ip redirects
 ntp disable
 bridge-group 1
!
edit: oh yeah this assumes you're trunking VLAN 1 up to some other device that'll be doing PPP for ya. in my setup i've got a cisco 897VA doing the VDSL which it bridges to a fortigate 60e.

got an OTA update for my Galaxy S10+ some One UI 3.0 poo poo, installed the upgrade and now they've removed the option to select custom notification sounds wtf

edit: worked it out, had to re-download tim.wav, move it to the "Notifications" folder on the internal storage which then makes it magically appear for selection in the settings app. pos

last night i was waiting on a food delivery and browsing the forums on my phone with the awful app and somehow it completely blocked me from seeing an incoming call from the food dude. i only realised it because a notification popped up on my PC saying that i missed a call.

pretty sure this is just a dumb android ting and nothing to do with awful app. thandroid

the ms teams app on android has the worst notification handling i've ever seen. you can have the app open to a specific conversation and you'll STILL get a notification every single time someone messages in chat it's obscene. like surely they'd go "ok the dude already has the app open so they're seeing the messages so we should suppress notifications" but apparently that's too hard/they're too dumb/anroid

Drastic Actions posted:

i don't have that issue of notifications when the app is open but having the default behavior be "push all replies on a thread you replies in as notifications" is the most annoying poo poo, and they do it on all platforms. I have to mute every thread I'm in unless someone actually at replies, or else I get a flood of useless notifications.

teams, it's poo poo!

i ended up disabling all notifications from the apps except for calls

anyone mentioned how google moved the menu shortcut in the play store app from the top left corner, where it has been for maybe a decade, to the top right corner? i cannot fathom why they have done this. they know it's confused the poo poo outta people because they put pop-up notifications in the app advising that it's moved.

i just had a look at some other google apps and everyone who said that it was for a unified UI dealio is correct. in fact it looks like they're tryna make the entire top 1/8 of every app into a kind of search bar (like even for apps that in no way need one it still has a thing that looks like one) with the "your profile pic/main menu" thing on the top-right.

except for the google calendar app, that hasn't been touched and i think it's because they don't know how.

the late ballmer years were so funny

my favorite bit was when he sent out a big all-hands memo to address the increasing drift and dysfunction that microsoft was sliding into, and wrote many impassioned paragraphs about the need to focus because the company always did best when it had a clear focus and they needed to get back to focusing on what was really important

...and then he listed off the TEN things that they needed to focus on

yeah, this is the thing, if you went onto office communicator back in 2007 you have had uninterrupted updates and support (not to mention uninterruptedly ever-changing branding) since, and with a promise that it'll keep working until 2025. and the effort to actually migrate people onto teams has a bit more meat to it than the google "well, here's the new thing, it is different from the old thing" announcement.

back in may 2021 microsoft started rolling out an update for the teams back-end infra and client that changed the way it communicates, specifically at L4 with STUN. the idea was to improve performance and apparently it lets them support calls with up to 1k participants. the roll-out of the change has apparently been progressive across regions and it appears that it has hit AU this week. as we found out the change makes clients a shitton more chatty which resulted in traffic log output doubling from all state gov depts lmao

teams? TEAMS!? oh yes, teams
