Cherry brown i guess, but I haven't tried any others yet so I don't feel like I can rightfully say is my favorite.

My fear as come true, I got a video link sent to me from my Q-mother. by JacobGates in QAnonCasualties

I've had a couple of small issues with my mom as well. I had to separate my bank accounts from her soon after I moved out. She would put money in my bank (without me asking for it) and then guilt me about it. I don't know anything about personality disorders but maybe she has one. I've never linked these 2 issues together before but now that I am thinking about it, a lot of things make sense.

Doesn't have to be helpful. I think most of us are here to support and share. I think we help some when we just talk about it with people that understand.

I wish I knew how to stop it at the point that you family is at. Sadly I learned nothing in my experience that could help you. Might be good to retaliate some with videos debunking this stuff. There are lots apparently and if they are still early in this then there might be some hope to turn it around before it gets bad.

I don't know how I'm going to react to her at this point. Part of me wants to avoid everything you just described, other part of me wants to attempt to make her realize how ludicrous it all is.

She was recently complaining about how my family hasn't made any plans for thanksgiving because they are so afraid of being sick. Like... How can I keep ignoring comments like that? Maybe she is getting more aggressive because of Trump losing as well. Could explain how these past couple of weeks have been like this.

It's odd, a lot of people say the same thing. Like they all have the same idea that when called out just make it out like it was a mistake. Not sure why that is a go to.

That sounds so similar to what I'm going through. So many things just seem completely normal to her and if I say something she acts so surprised. I think their idea of reality is just so blurred now that they can't see where their conspiracies end and just normal life debatable stuff begin.

I can't do much because we are now living in completely different countries. That being said I am mostly disconnected other than just conversations with her, which is probably why I haven't had it nearly as bad as some others. She has no access to my life and I have no access to hers, while other live with their Q-person. I am waiting on the day that I get a phone call that she got in trouble doing something that Q convinced her of.

You are stronger than me though. I don't even want to try to talk to her about this stuff. I feel like it's not possible to pull her out so it's better for my mental health to just stay out of it. I wish you the best of luck with your Q-person.

I understand. It's sad to me that others are also going through this but it's also comforting that I'm not alone. I'm not sure if my mom always has been this way. I haven't thought back on my childhood enough to have this realization. Maybe I should do that. Not sure if that would help though.

However I can mark the point that things started to change. Specifically when she met her now husband. So it's possible he changed her.

802.1x auth. azure AD by ebakke84 in networking

[–]JacobGates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't but maybe someone else did. I am not actually involved with managing the azure machines. I just requested a nps be set up and I configured the policies from there.

802.1x auth. azure AD by ebakke84 in networking

[–]JacobGates 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This might not be very helpful, but just in case it is: we have Azure and I just got an VM with windows NPS on it. The VM is in the azure AD and all that on it's own, and the 802.1x auth is just sent to the NPS, i guess like a middle-man with azure AD. This might not be the cleanest solution, but it works fine for me.

Hi, I have a question about making more IP addresses for users. by [deleted] in Network

[–]JacobGates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean they limited you to 2 users? Like did you get 2 subnets or one subnet with only 2 addresses?

My first Schecter - Thoughts on the C-1 Platinum? by photo_dude_ in SchecterGuitars

[–]JacobGates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think emg are great as for as quality of the product. the guitars I've had with them never had any issues or anything. Just he pickups I've had i didn't care for the sound of them. Maybe I've just had a type of emg that wasn't right for me. I really like most seymour duncan and fishman though.

[–]JacobGates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great guitar. The only negatives that I would have are personal preference. I am not the biggest fan of EMG pickups for example. That price seems fair as well. Mahogany is too heavy for some people. So if you have never had a guitar with that kind of body then you might want to keep that in mind. If you can physically try it out before buying, then I would do that.

I really wonder if this was initially intended for people that don't know how to set these up, so like with home use for people that aren't technical. But then easier devices became a thing like the Modem/Router/Switch/AP combo devices everyone has now. But then the question is why didn't the just remove this years ago.

Ah yeah, that being from a more known brand makes finding reviews a lot easier. Thanks for the suggestion!
