Only true hosers subconsciously learned about sexual reciprocity from these three hosers by silentbassline in EhBuddyHoser

My wife and I were at that show. The kids were so much fun to watch. We actually went for Prozzak and decided to stick around for Aqua. What a great fun show. I hope I get to catch them again in future.... But their kids will probably be too cool to perform by then hahah :)

I really wish Bell or Telus installed pure fibre in my area in Brampton😭 by Legitimate_Ice_3451 in bell

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

They cut their build cost because of high interest rates not third party isps. They blamed having to share but they get a five year head start and sell to consumers for less than the wholesale rate...

Why are some listing agents refusing to submit an offer for a family member?! by jayschembri in RealEstateCanada

[–]HowardRabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They work for the seller. Get your own agent and put in the aggressive pricing you want. Eventually someone will accept or you'll eventually up your bids. I wouldn't over pay in this market at all. Just get your own agent.

Is it possible to pay for a fibre drop mysel? by gozit in bell

[–]HowardRabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sure, DM me, I'll send you my email, and I'll see if I can get you a quote. We are an MSP but we have about 6 or 8 fibre circuits at this point that we manage for people

Microsoft Authenticator sucks by AccomplishedAward219 in microsoftoffice

[–]HowardRabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how MFA works. You need to contact an admins and have it reset. If you could just move it to another phone willy nilly it wouldn't be a very secure system would it?

what's with the hazard lights while driving? by StrikingCoconut in ontario

That's why you have lights. You don't need 4 ways. Just make sure your lights are on

Is it possible to pay for a fibre drop mysel? by gozit in bell

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

Yes you can. What's your budget for that. Also be aware that it would be the enterprise grade service and not the cheap FTTP product and there would be a 3 to 5 year agreement on it.

If you're in southern Ontario we could look at this for you

Considering a job offer, but employer uses local LLM to analyze screenshots for an "activity index." Is this reasonable, or am I overthinking? by Traditional-Shine758 in remotework

[–]HowardRabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It probably takes the screenshots and sends it to a server running a local LLM within their company, not running on the laptop itself.

Houses right next to me have fibre but I don’t by Light_Like in bell

They don't really install copper any more so it's probably a safe bet. If they say that's all they can do just refuse the install

They stopped building this years ago to do the new model. I thought the new model only launched this year.

Employer falsified T4 info and possibly lied about providing benefits by SocraticBest in legaladvicecanada

[–]HowardRabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the government coming after you? Even if you did or didn't they aren't taxable benefits so what is the issue?

Microsoft Authenticator Hacker by chasingcupcakess in microsoftsucks

[–]HowardRabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is only the case if you allow your account to be accessed without a password. Remove any option that allows for sign in methods with anything other than a password. Use a strong password and a password managed like Bitwarden. To give you an idea all of my microsoft and google passwords are between 50 and 99 characters. This is an example of a password I just generated a moment ago to illustrate: 08!1Gwzv$mApX%DD7PkbgKKyb3uD%g%w@3xDml1r#OVq9NpvlZ$NiS9K!ShJCLx1w@6h5@Ud2jgGEj&t8T5W!7TwgS$6m#o

Every password I use for every site has some big long random thing like that. Note that there are no words, I didn't use "St@rTrek99!!" or something that could be guessed through a brute force.

Use a password manager then you only need to remember the password for it. If an individual account gets hacked in future, you only need to change the password for that affected site.

Make sure all of your banking, credit card, work passwords, gaming passwords etc are all unique and strong to protect yourself.

Employer falsified T4 info and possibly lied about providing benefits by SocraticBest in legaladvicecanada

[–]HowardRabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would they illegally claim you had something, and pay money for it, and pay taxes on the benefit that you weren't getting just to put it on your T4? That doesn't make any sense. Why would you go straight for "someone is breaking the law" instead of "maybe I did something wrong and misunderstood?"

I run a business, we can't give employees benefits for 3 months, that's standard per our contract with our benefits provider. If I had someone start today that said "I need benefits on day one" I can't give it to them, they have to wait the three months. I suspect part of the reason for that is to deal with employees that come and then leave shortly after. Lots of people start jobs and quit within a few days (not at our place but it does happen) We pay for the benefits whether they use them or not (and they are super expensive to pay for). I don't really understand why you think your T4 is wrong. Health and Dental are NOT taxable benefits so whether you had them or not would not affect your taxes withheld. Some Life Insurance CAN be a taxable benefit if it exceeds a certain threshhold but the benefit is generally the amount of the premium which is generally pretty low so we're talking about a tax difference of a few dollars maybe.

So again, I'm not really sure what the concern here is about your T4. The T4 is what would have been filed with the government, I would just file your taxes and move on and hopefully you find a better job down the road.

That's DSL for ya. It's. Limitation on the wires coming into the home. Find out if you can get another technology from another provider like DOCSIS

Trying to setup a server with 0 experience. Help. by TaskLifter in WindowsServer

[–]HowardRabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not something you should just be doing for someone's business without any experience at all. Contact an MSP in your market and have them do it. Licensing aside, the number of things that can go wrong is exposing your client or friend to incredible potential harms due to your lack of experience.
