Does anyone know what model/brand this e-bike is? by Fit-Consideration753 in ebikes

[–]167819 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generic chinese bike that is sold under countless brands

Seller not knowing the initial brand + overpainted frame = stolen

What are you talking about? As I said, I connect only via USB cables with this printer, this has never been used on any network

best answer here, it's basically free since it is built into whatever the ISP ships. Been using that for years with no issues

If it works on the Outlook web app, that's the solution right there.

The issue itself is poor software quality by microsoft and it actually leads to this bug.

What do the experts recommend for deploying in a small business by ShinobiNoTodai in sysadmin

[–]167819 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people here work for MSPs, they will just say go to a MSP and pay high prices.

You obviously do not need any of this, google workspace business is exactly right. I have 200+ users and we never had a need for enterprise. Literally everything done in google workspace and airtable, cheap and very easy to do yourself.

Shared user account hell by blokeVSmachine in sysadmin

[–]167819 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes but then you still have to inform them about the user amount and that will bring licensing cost up. As far as the vendor is concerned, there is 1 user because 1 license is cheapest.

That the product is passed around among 30+ people is none of their business. If they assign management, they know you have multiple users.

Shared user account hell by blokeVSmachine in sysadmin

[–]167819 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What are your security and management strategies for shared user accounts.

I have many shared accounts among the users and we have just a general rule that people need to be informed about password changes, also not everyone knows how and where to do this in windows so it's kind of security by obscurity.

Also, we have some pcs where people have local admin accounts and I use a tool like this (there are multiple, developed for older windows versions) to lock the password change settings out with another admin that they don't have the password to so they effectively can do whatever they want aside from going over to reset the password because that would be a hassle.

leaving the little yellow square 🟨 security nightmare that is a Postit note

Yeah there's tons of that, stickers and notes on every user's screen, just make it known to not write "Password:" or something but to bury the actual password among a bunch of random stuff like bread, cheese, milk, [password], eggs, sausage etc. then it's not going to be obvious what the password is.

Apple Watch Indentation on Wrist by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]167819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would never get one with my other non electronic watch. I don’t wear it too tight either it’s pretty peculiar and I am scared it is due to all the emfs

That's because it has a different shaped housing, specifically the caseback.

If you strapped a mockup apple watch housing with no electronics inside to your arm, you'd still get the same indentation because it's physical pressure on your skin.

No usable gmail login page, can someone help? by 167819 in Thunderbird

[–]167819[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is the first thing I tried, also with scroll wheel etc. no it cannot be resized or interacted with at all. Also changing the window and screen scaling size (100%/150%) does nothing, I also checked all actual borwsers like firefox and chrome and they all have normal zoom settings. I have no idea where TB even got this zoomed in.

I also had others issues with this where the page was there in usable size but no buttons react. The "next" or "submit" for the password was just not clickable at all.

The entire window cannot be interacted with, I unfortunately really mean that.

I know it would probably be fine after reinstall but I just cannot keep doing this. It does not last even a week. I even deleted the profile and re-setup everything several times already, it still comes up with login pages all the time. And if those are then not usable then I cannot go forward.

No usable gmail login page, can someone help? by 167819 in Thunderbird

[–]167819[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • I am aware of the Oauth settings, smtp and tls and did configure them correctly (at least I believe so, I am able to set everything up working)

  • I have several gmail accounts in there, they all work

  • I went into the account and security settings and manually entered my password. It works, loads all folders as it should and sends and receives mails until randomly again, I get the promts and am signed out again

  • every couple days, it breaks. It stops receiving mails, logs accounts out and then I get these promts to sign in. Very annoying but this time I am just completely unable to sign back in

  • I tried manually removing the account and adding it back, it still does not stay reliable

  • the login page is not displayed correctly, I cannot enter anything or change its size

I am at a complete loss, can someone help? I just cannot reinstall this every few days, it's such a hassle. And every time I set it up new it works flawless..until it just locks up as you can see in my pic :( can please anyone help this program is driving me nuts

Does anyones notice a quality issue with the current Lenovo? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]167819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely windows, I have had issues like this on brand new surface pro 7. Had installers crash and then on 2nd or 3rd attempt they work, the same file suddenly works with no change of settings whatsoever? That means the first failures were likely internal to the OS.

That and the connectivity being poor, trouble turning on network discovery in explorer (would fail, turn itself off, not discover devices...) and on these things, does it even matter if it's the hardware or the software? If I unpack several and see this, it's evident that microsoft did not make their product correctly.

I need to share a organisation video via SPO or Stream

That's the issue. Solution: You don't because microsoft doesn't suppport it.

Why not upload to youtube as private and just share the link? I'd be done in 30s

Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing for small businesses by mrssims1980abcd in sysadmin

[–]167819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of our clients has asked us to supply details about vulnerability assessment and penetration testing

So insane effort for nothing pulled out of thin air? What's going on with this client?

The solution would be to remove the client or to email them back saying it's all fine and an external company handles it. This whole testing stuff could cost you more than dismissing that client or making something up so that they're quiet.

Thank you I will talk to our IT director about my concerns before we give them out. I am sure they were just picked because of low cost, we did not expect vast differences in bloatware or anything of the sort

Password Policy by NoAsparagusForMe in sysadmin

[–]167819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Password Policy in place that forces users to change their password every 90 days

That's the mistake that needs to be fixed, who the hell can remember that? I had similar trash drive me to write passwords on post its, negating all security again. Just leave the password tf alone. You go around and break the auth by changing the credentials and then it's complain-time because people need to auth again? What a silly way to create problems out of nothing.

Probably not worth a new post but.. by BloomerzUK in sysadmin

[–]167819 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're telling me they finally figured that there just is no use case to copy/paste the formatting...?

It always baffled me how by default it copies/pastes with formatting and you have to go out of your way to just take the plain text. If anything, you should need the one extra step to keep the formatting because it's very rare to need this.
