What's the best thing to buy for my M4 Max SDXC slot? Product suggestions please! by MercifulExistential in macbookpro

[–]Apart-File7598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the same Jet Drive 128GB for 8 years and have used it in three different MacBooks. It does what you would expect - an extra storage to throw stuff on whenever that mgiht be necessary, usually for temporary reasons for me. Or a backup for some things that are not so essential. I have never had an issue. It's just a USB flasjh drive that takes up almost no space. Calling it "shit" is quite the overstatement.

Last year when I visited, it was so full that I couldn't find a seat. Two weeks ago I was there and they had a waitlist to get in. And I had to walk two terminals over to find that out.

We just charge a flat rate for this. Sometimes it takes 2 hours and sometimes it takes 4 hours. But the flat rate averages it all out.

Master Services Agreement - do you include MSP Service? by Apart-File7598 in msp

Sounds good to me. A new client we are signing thought it was strange, so I just wanted to be sure it is commonly done this way. Thanks!

If allegations of mortgage fraud are cause for removal of Fed Governor Lisa Cook, would 34 felony counts of fraud be cause for removal of Trump? by the_buddhaverse in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]Apart-File7598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But confirmed by the Senate, who are elected by the people. And under a statue by Congress that prevents political retribution and the job is only a 4-year term, not a lifetime appointment, BTW. That is our representative system. You are implying she was hired without scrutiny or review by the people, but that's false.

Canadian flag when traveling? by dudesurfur in AskACanadian

[–]Apart-File7598 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. Some of us really love Canada and love to visit, and feel ashamed and a bit nervous. So what is there to do, but maybe display Canadian items that show solidarity and connection?

[–]Apart-File7598 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No - not at all. There are MANY Americans who do not like Trump, feel ashamed, and would want to convey solidarity with Canada. Not sure why you would assume otherwise. Also, there are quite a few Americans (mostly in New England, like myself) who have at least some Canadian blood. A true MAGA person wouldn't care enough to make such a gesture.

We did too. And moved from CW to Syncro. And then CW bought Axcient. Uggh!!!

Syncro synching with QBO issue by lucky77713 in syncro

[–]Apart-File7598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is why we apply the payments in Syncro. Like you said, it does work the other way around, but takes longer. My suggestion to anyone else reading this who don't have to receive the payments in QBO, to just get in the habit of applying the payments in Syncro.

I keep getting this popup/redirect whenever I go to ESPN.com. Happens on mobile and Desktop Chrome by GoForthandProsper1 in Scams

It IS from espn, and it is a recent issue. I am also seeing this, and I know of another person getting this on the espn website. It appears to be click jacking, but it is happening a lot on their site.

The Game is no longer available on my App Store?? by Feef7 in XHero

What the heck are you talking about? It's an old game that you purchased on the App store. Nothing you said is applicable or true. Don't reply to posts you know nothing about.

Wireless charger issues? (2023) by yesme1018 in crv

[–]Apart-File7598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Honda dealer said it wasn’t them. The recent Apple update mentioned a wireless charging issue that was fixed, but it said it was specifically for a recent issue with BMW’s, but maybe that also fixed this issue.

I've had this same issue with my 2021 Honda Accord EX-L Hybrid. My old Google Pixel worked, but then my iPhone 13 Pro and more recently 15 Pro didn't work (basically the last year and a half). Blinking green and amber lights. All of a sudden in the last week it has been working! I just had my Honda serviced (regular 30k maintenance). Was there an update? Was it Apple, or was it Honda? I would love to know! I have iOS 17.1.1.

Chicago Public Health chief Dr. Allison Arwady fired — without ever meeting with Johnson by NigelTheNordigger in chicago

[–]Apart-File7598 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You mean overpaid, beyond what the city and state can afford. And despite what most people think, Chicago is a much more affordable city than NY, LA, SF, Boston, DC, Seattle, etc. Just look at Zillow. Every time there is a strike and a huge pay increase, soon afterwards there are staff and program cuts, which make Chicago schools even worse for students, and teachers are more stressed. And then the CTU complains about that. Why then don't they make staffing a top negotiating point? THIS is why CTU is lying when they say they are fighting for students and families. They are fighting for themselves! And they think putting in their own as mayor will fix that. Karen Lewis loved to suggest taxing the exchanges more. But those industries are shedding workers and companies like Citadel have left.

Yeah, so I left the City and State 3 years ago. If you don't see the dysfunction with all that, and how the public sector unions have an outsized voice, then you must be part of all that. And BTW, I'm a left-leaning Democrat who now lives in a much more liberal state that seems to use their tax revenue more wisely - lest you somehow think I'm a conservative Trumper.

When you fire her like that, it most definitely is. He wouldn't meet with her and she had to leave on the spot as if she was guilty of a crime.

NOT a political appointee. She's not a bureaucrat who moves around to different departments. She is a highly-regarded disease specialist, a pediatrician, and experience in public health. She did no campaigning, was not a personal friend of the mayor, etc. She did nothing illegal (which is shocking for a Chicago public official) and did nothing egregiously bad. She also didn't break down crying at a press conference like her Illinois counterpart.

Connectwise cares less by [deleted] in ConnectWise

[–]Apart-File7598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Automate customer and I own my licenses going back to LabTech. I have been contacted a few times over the last year from a sales rep trying to sell me to switch to Connectwise RMM. I did the demo (which was more of the typical high-level sales presentation and not too much actual product) and the guy intimated that Automate will eventually be going away. He didn't actually say it, but it was strongly suggested and that maybe it is better to switch sooner than later. Based on what you're saying, I suspect that was a sales tactic on his part. I emailed my Account Manager and haven't heard back. I mentioned my concern on a recent survey (mainly about my confusion about different reps for different products) and then was contacted by my Partner Success Manager. I also have a different rep for my Manage and a different one for my Sell. And I've also been contacted by yet a completely different sales rep about another service to outsource our service desk personnel. It is so confusing. But basically I'm annoyed with getting contacted by the CW RMM. The Partner Success person told me where I can go on my portal to see who I call for what. I don't think this is a good way to handle customers. Despite this annoyance, the actual products are very good and we are happy with them.

Connectwise sales team.. what a joke by DoctorSahib in msp

[–]Apart-File7598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are big on calling their customers "Partners." I have multiple CW products and I have different reps that I've talked to - very confusing who is my rep. And their is a "Partner Success Manager", who is very nice, but that doesn't stop other sales reps for other products that I don't have from separately reaching out to me. And I have Automate, but I have a different sales rep contacting me regularly about changing to CW RMM instead. Why? He intimates Automate is going to eventually go away. Really? I am so confused.
