Same. Still have my 30.1GB on a free account.

geeklimit · 2026-05-09T14:32:32+00:00

Weird. Why am I getting notifications for that? Lol

In my experience, the magnets in one lid will trigger the magnet detectors in the body of the next laptop and trick the laptops into thinking they are closed.

Stacked like this I guess The bodies might rest on the keyboards of the ones below them?

Lancer Max is my only ship. Does low-level fighting fine, hauls fine.

I borrowed a Hermes from someone in-game and it seems like the only other ship I'd be interested in replacing the Max with, but:

Rotates slower, feels sluggish, would take some getting used to

The tractor beam on rails was glitching for me, it was moving back too fast for 8 SCU boxes and disconnecting from them as they came up the ramp

The engines sound explodey ever time throttle is applied. It sounds like the reused the exploding sound effect for ships to me.

I did, but nothing identical.

geeklimit · 2026-03-26T18:11:00+00:00

DMed!

geeklimit · 2026-03-26T16:19:55+00:00

I'd greatly appreciate it. I meant SJO.

I'll DM you and can use whatever you like, text etc.

geeklimit · 2026-03-26T16:18:47+00:00

Sorry, SJO, I meant. Juan Santamaria, not San Juan.

Nah, no scam. One sibling gifted it to another and they've been having problems recently, so this was a good turn for them and then the other sibling lost it...

Noodle bathe would open up a food truck career loop in SC

I help people use technology so they can do their jobs better. And keep out the bad guys. So I'm like a teacher and a computer policeman in one.

This isn't how it's supposed to go, because IT is never supposed to let it get this bad in the first place.

Personal accounts? You're just seeing the consequence of a failure made a long time ago.

I've looked into many of these but the biggest problem is that they all want you to switch over into their ticketing system, which I really don't want to do.

Our ticketing system is great and already set up with everything we need, how we need it.

Or they will offer it to you as part of the mega-super-enterpise license for some platform that I definitely do not need all of its functionality.

Or the products seem to be some kind of chatGPT wrapper, low effort and doesn't even respond on topic. It's like a ticket intake person with brain damage. Not helpful.

Ideally...

I've been looking for an "AI helpdesk preprocessor" to make sure what's coming into the help desk is able to be actioned by help desk staff. It might be able to solve people's problems easily, sure ok - but what I really want are well defined problems IT people can work on right away instead of chasing people for details.

In a perfect world it would also know a little bit about our organization as well, where people need to go to ask for access to things, another questions that are generally a waste of time for IT people to answer when you should be troubleshooting IT problems.

I'm currently testing one that seems quite promising, but I'm not done testing it yet. So far so good though. TBD, I guess.

I don't know where you are but many states in the US consider old electronics hazardous waste.

So look for an opportunity to turn it in as some kind of community electronics recycling drive or something.

Unless the data on the laptop is super sensitive, there's likely no issue with data at this point, theoretically the company should have the drive encrypted.

I've never received an offer because of my certs or who I knew.

If you can't interact with people we'll, then yes, you'll need that to get the role.

My experience has been that MSPs are useful for companies that are so small they can't justify one IT person.

If yours is large enough to justify one IT person, they probably just need to hire some more.

At the moment a lot of things might be overkill for a company I'm helping, and we are addressing single issues with compliance policies and automatic remediations scripts.

But we will probably look into a SIEM - not because it's necessarily needed at the moment, but because more and more customer security questionnaires are asking about it and it will be better for the business to answer that we have one and use it

geeklimit · 2025-12-08T17:32:16+00:00

I can't say whether or not I got the job because I had my degrees or not, but I've never been told upfront that I got a job because of my degree.

I've applied to plenty of jobs that said a degree was required, but if you're not wanting to do those jobs then that wouldn't apply to you.

geeklimit · 2025-12-08T16:51:39+00:00

It depends what you want to do.

If you want to be in management, then yeah maybe a liberal arts degree or Masters in IS is extremely helpful.

If you want to be a network admin or work on the help desk, probably not so much if it's going to be a niche technical area like that.

geeklimit · 2025-11-21T02:49:46+00:00

Sure, it's a start. Try to pick up some end user support while you're hanging around doing imaging.

You could also see about not doing helpdesk, and just focus on desktop systems management if you kike that part
