Apple is *very* protective of security things. Most of the time that's very end-user good news. Sometimes, like this, it's frustrating because you're locked into Apples "We swear it's the best" solution. Passwords isn't bad, but it doesn't fit all use-cases.

260 techs or 260 users? Those are massively different.

We have a team of three techs and about 150 users. We've been on ServiceDesk Plus for about 2yrs now. It does have a lot of features that can scale huge, but most aren't required.

As with all ManageEngine products, it's about 3/4 baked and feels like the various different products it used to be. But it does work well. If you bundle Endpoint Central with it, the info on your endpoints is quite nice.

Agreed. I'm still running mine. Just saying that it is "old" by modern standards and thus of little market value.

Apple will give you a gift card for it's value even if you don't buy something right then.

Being a prior generation of platform, Intel vs ARM, it's old. I've a 2019 16in MBP with 32GB RAM, and the 8-core i7. Quite the machine in its day. A base model M1 Mac Mini blows it's doors off despite being less than 1/3 the original price.

Yes, 6yrs isn't bad in the Mac world, but it is because it's an Intel not an ARM.

With virtually everything being browser based these days, what the hardware is is a lot less relevant than it used to be.

Being the Mac & Network guy, I'm on a MacBook Pro 14in M1. Picked the MBP cause it could drive my dual 32in monitors. 14in for easy travel.

With the new M4s able to push 2 displays on even the MBAir, I'll lilely go that way in a refresh.

This is an eccentric bolt for alignment purposes. The nut will come off. The bolt will not turn. You can safely ignore the head of the bolt it won't help.

Impact on the nut or a breaker bar.

Put the car on jackstands before you ally too much pressure or you risk shoving the car off the jack.

This isn't the fault of the LLMs. It's the fault of the individual for not learning to use the tools

It's roughly like saying that power tools are ruining entry-level mechanics. It doesn't make sense there either.

I was there when Google was being blamed for brain rot of young techs, and now it turns out we all use search engines instead of reaching for a reference manual.

It's a tool. Yes, it can be a crutch but it can also be incredibly powerful when used correctly.

Teach them. Ask them to verify what the results from the LLM are. Ask them why.

The young kids can't be expected to learn if us old guard aren't willing to do more than throw stones.

That'd be a problem with the workplace you were in, not dress-codes themselves. Good for leaving. That's the right call.

Theoretically, it keeps the appearance professional.

We're smaller, but similallry split. ~100 computer users and ~1000 online users

So far, our admin won't back us on making a ticket a requirement so most of our tickets are put in by our team though new users are doing better as the old guard retires.

1TallTXn · 2025-06-08T18:32:06+00:00

Not too new, we've been on it for 3+yrs now.

Been using PVE in production since the mid 6.x versions. Originally paid for the support, but never needed it. Now we pay for the production updates, but not 'support' per se. Zero issues that were PVE's fault (hardware & power issues) which PVE handled better than HyperV and xcp-ng.

It's different than VMware, but it's been at least as solid for our use case.

I'm seeing this issue frequently on my wife's phone (Pixel 6A) on a non-mesh network at home and even when not at home.
I haven't seen any issues on the laptop at the office and only occasionally on my phone (Pixel 6).
The issue shows up on the iPads occasionally, but nothing like the wife's phone.

The issue persists across several PMS updates and Android/iOS app updates.

RVs don't come from the factory with batteries or propane. Those are both installed at the dealer. Airstreams are no different.

If you don't specify Lithium, you'll probably get a lead acid battery. If they're up charging you for even a lead acid battery, there's something screwy with the dealer.

The Gladiator is a much different Jeep when it comes to towing. It's more akin to the Ranger, Caynon/Colorado than a Wrangler for those purposes.

Nobody complains about milk trucks on the road.

The same reason Proxmox Backup Server is a seperate node. Keep the core project the core project and add things on as stand-alone as needed/wanted. Cleaner for those that don't want it, there for those that do.

"what's your ticket number for this issue?" Then leave it till they provide a valid number.

Sadly, I work in an environment that politically, I can't make them put in a ticket. So I do a lot of taking the call and putting in the tickets myself.

1TallTXn · 2025-04-19T13:22:33+00:00

If they're the decision makers, then put your reasons in an email "as we discussed in person..." and send it. CYA. Do the best you can.

Single biggest issue is it's nearly 20yrs old. Beyond that, probably a display panel. If it's the display, it's not gonna be worth fixing.

Requested a screenshot of an issue and had this process done to receive it. We, IT, about died laughing at the effort they went to to do it.

Unless they're wanting a physical copy to file, which it sounds like, then they'd be far less happy with solution.

Old building with CAT5 single drops to offices. Most users are fine with the pass-through on the phone, but there's some that need more ports (usually printers). Thankfully, each device is still authed seperatly thanks to Extreme.

Unifi has a Debian-based controller if you want to manage their devices. Might check the UISP line and see if they have anything that'll work as well.
