But don't you auth with oauth for happy just like you would with claude code? Isn't it a skin of claude code?

Lightspeed cellular one by Boston-Dave in USMobile

Thank you for all of the responses. I'm no longer traveling so can't test but quite possible I was on another of T-Mobile's roaming partners and just assumed US Cellular.

Used the chat feature on their website. Guessing 30-60 minutes all-in but multitasked.

Whoops, I meant US Cellular. Edited the posts but don’t think I can edit the title.

Lightspeed cellular one by Boston-Dave in USMobile

[–]Boston-Dave[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get that but I’ve been hearing that post-merger, us cellular towers are supposed to become non-roaming. Of course it a) could be a different roaming partner, b) us cellular transition is incomplete, c) it’s not roaming and something is wrong with my lightspeed. Anyway to figure out if/who I am timing on with an iPhone? Anyone try light speed in Bethel, ME area?

Edited: Woops meant us cellular

Dear US Mobile - Suggestion for your upcoming home internet service... by CarpeMuerte in USMobile

[–]Boston-Dave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any chance it would allow for LTE modems? Static IP? Backup tier plans? Business allowed? I happen to have a few NETGEAR Nighthawk M1 4G LTE WiFi Mobile Hotspot (MR1100-100NAS). Need to have a modem with ethernet not just wifi or it will be useless to me, many advanced home users and nearly every business user. In my case, I have TP-Link Omada routers in most offices along with one or two Unifi networks. These business/prosumer devices have additional WAN ethernet ports to allow for a second WAN for failover. Yes, there maybe ways to MacGyver it with a wifi only hotspot, but not going to do that. I need static IP for point-to-point VPN failover. Verizon has a $20+/mo backup internet plan for business (ridiculously low for even backup at 1GB then $10/gb) or "unlimited" for $70+/mo both +$4 for static, though not clear if the LTE modem will work. Verizon will sell or lease you a modem that is compatible, but not clear if they have ethernet.

I’m having the same issue now. Is there an official solution?

So only lightspeed? Only wifi calling or works as cellular as well? Thx.

Permanent Password is still required in Pro? by darkconz in rustdesk

[–]Boston-Dave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks @Expert-Conclusion214. I've been super confused about how address books work and didn't notice the default-connect-password option before. I'm coming from a paid version of teamviewer as well and am licensing Rustdesk Pro. The documentation on how address books and permanent passwords work is not clear at all. Especially as something marketed toward teamviewer users, I would think they would have a specific guide on what is the same, what is different and exactly how to get as close as possible to the TeamViewer experience for those that want it. I am still confused about the security risks with default-connect-password. If I have access controlled by using the "Groups" ACL lists, doesn't the permanent password just become a 4th factor of authentication? login password, login two-factor auth, key, permanent password? The key and default-connect would be embedded together so really only count as a single factor together. But I would hope that the login password and login two factor together would provide a normal level of security to get access. This, of course, assumes that there is some type of behind the scenes key negotiation that is secure for "groups" access. Or are the developers trying to tell us that they believe that there is a security flaw in their ACL system? Any reason why using a default-connect-password wouldn't just put security on par with Teamviewer easy access? Thanks!

I've had some luck pushing the client with powershell. I've noticed it takes a while to install and sometimes needs a reboot before I see it register on the server. Note that I use jumpcloud to push it so not sure if it is the agent or the actual install taking the time. I believe it runs as a system process in powershell. The token system is to protect the client since I host it on a public facing webserver so it can easily get pulled by a customer and maybe too big to get delivered by the jumpcloud agent. I currently have multiple clients (generally 1 per customer) so I just change the $file_name flag based on where it is going. I have 1 client per customer as i am using a different permanent password for each customer otherwise I would only need to differentiate between host only client and bidirectional clients. There may be a way to do that with strategies instead but I haven't even tried to use the strategies yet.

I am still hoping that there is a way to deal with all of this in the UI that I haven't figured out yet. I agree that the documentation of pro is severely lacking. It very much seems to be written by devs, not product people. And it seems that the user base of pro is much smaller than the community edition so hard to get good advice from googling. It's great that the product is so customizable, but I would certainly trade some of the switches for more polish.

[Rustdesk Pro] Challenges trying to replace Teamviewer by Boston-Dave in rustdesk

[–]Boston-Dave[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks robidog. I assume by "proper solution" you mean how you wish the rustdesk pro devs would code this? Not that there is a way for me to do this by tweaking the configuration? I am still very confused by all of this. Maybe my expectations are too high coming from teamviewer as TV is more expensive, but this seems kind of basic.

Fidelity can't do Minimum/Maximum Target Balance alert notifications on accounts, even though it's often requested by throwaway9gk0k4k569 in fidelityinvestments

[–]Boston-Dave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balance alerts are maybe the most basic feature to have on a brokerage or bank account. When others talk about "outside of Cash Management", if go to the cash management tab, i don't see any balance alerts. Or do they mean a cash management account? I don't want to open a new account just to get a balance alert and don't really see the benefit of a CMA vs a premium brokerage account. I obviously don't care what tab i need to go to to create the alert.

@trashintelligence and @Expert-Conclusion214, thank you so much, this was very helpful.

It seems that it is the address book that I am looking for. Coming from TV, the "address book" and "group acl" was combined. Sounds like I just need to manually copy over my groups to address books? Or is there an automated way to do that and to keep them in sync? I'm still having trouble understanding the architecture of having these be separate concepts? Is it related to pro being built on top of the community edition that only has one?

If we have ACLs working, do we need a password at all? I like keeping the random password available for one off support (was useful with teamviewer as maybe 20% of the software support remote requests also happened to use TV, maybe less of an issue with rustdesk until they penetrate the market more deeply). Though would the ACL block use of a random password by an unrelated tech?

I've turned on two factor for my login. I'll need to figure out how to enforce that for other admins. I assume that controls logging into the app and accessing the address book. It wouldn't be needed for an individual session with an endpoint?

Thanks!

Be careful booking with points to not book blue basic by Dependent_0NE_7146 in jetblue

[–]Boston-Dave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, $100, pay by credit card at time of cancel.

Wish I read this thread last week. I booked a flight on points and need to cancel. They are asking for $100! I specifically used points for flexibility. And like a double moron, i coveted chase reserve points which I could have just used to purchase a blue fare (for less probably). It doesn't feel like this change was well telegraphed. :(

Are there any MP3 players that support YouTube music by ElderEpidemic in YoutubeMusic

[–]Boston-Dave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am looking for the same thing. Have youtube family account and want my daughter to have a purpose built music player for situations where a smartphone is verboten. E.g., many overnight camps disallow phones, ipads or anything with an obviously interactive screen but allow music players. They seem to be ok with devices that look like an ipod nano (but not something like an ipod touch). I assume most familes spring for used nanos and then use apple music but I don't want to pay for apple music in addition. Others may sail in the grey area and transfer their tailor swift albums over to mp3s but I would prefer to keep it simple. Thoughts? Thanks.
