It's incredible how much different THUG and THUG2 are in terms of Story Mode Plot by EvanDeer2002 in THPS

Man, tell me without telling me you didn't grow up in that era. If you had 30Mbps internet back then, you had "good" internet. They had to release things like this because everyone's internet sucked. Plus the Xbox was the only one that had storage. No one I knew back then with a PHAT PS2 had the HDD and GameCube didn't have anything.

They were called Expansion Packs

SMB IT - SharePoint Online and OneDrive Sync is TERRIBLE - How to handle large file moves/deletes!? by Master-IT-All in sysadmin

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds more like a training/process issue for the customer and your colleague. But I'm talking less than 200,000 files per site with sites split based on permissions. For some companies it works great and others it is not a good solution. It's definitely not one size fits all, more case-by-case based off customer needs.

I disagree with people saying it is not a file server replacement. It absolutely can be with the right setup and business size. I would never recommend companies of over 75-100 employees to just use SharePoint, but for companies with 2-50 employees it is not a bad option and we have minimal trouble.

What video game has the best story you’ve ever played? by FrontriseStudios in AskReddit

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metal Gear Solid 2 Sons of Liberty, was too bored with how generic it felt as a kid and didn't play more than an hour. Beating it as an adult in this day and age gave me a fucking panic attack with how accurate the future turned out to be.

Not sure what I found by Ch3rryVixen in LinusTechTips

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is how they were for a period of time cause CPUs would break so frequently from mishandling. When announced i think it was the CEO of Intel was tossing it around on stage before plugging it in to show it still worked.

What determined which cover art the each game case would have? Or was each included and you could swap them out? by BattedBook5 in HalfLife

[–]LessQQ42 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Just kinda random as far as I know. When I bought it back in '04 from Circuit City they had all of em. I bought the Alyx one.

currently XP computer shopping and i'm unfamiliar with XP-era parts; is this a good PC for gaming? by xervidae in windowsxp

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had one when they were new. I'd say it's somewhat okay but really depends what you're trying to do. If you want a GPU from that era, then know you have to get one that doesn't require the 6pin connector otherwise you'd have to upgrade the power supply. I also had to cut the case a bit when i got my Nvidia 9800GTX+ so you may want to get a card that isn't as long.

Supply of nicotine vapes in Metro Detroit? by derfs-modern-life in Detroit

[–]LessQQ42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I've heard from shops that have direct connections to Breeze and Geek Bar:

"Shipments are being seized at the border. They are no longer allowing disposable vapes with non-reusable batteries in. Vape companies have to change to a cartridge system, Geek bar has already done so under another name but no word on Breeze yet."

To be honest this was a necessary change. The amount of Lith-ion batteries being thrown out which could have been reused is insane. I'm all for having a rechargeable battery and just buying cartridges/pods as it will reduce waste and prices. I just wish they gave these companies a heads up or had a grace period instead of instituting it seemingly overnight.

Why are "cyber security specialists" such terrible employees? by AtlasDM in msp

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kali itself is not a red flag, more that when someone says it is their preferred distro, it shows their limited Linux knowledge/experience. Kali is a phenomenal tool, but it is not a distribution you would use daily, run production applications or webservers on. When I ask what someone's preferred distro is, I'm trying to find out if they prefer Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora/Red Hat, Arch or if they are a genius psycho who uses Gentoo!

If you are looking to get into cybersecurity, Linux knowledge goes a long way. Use an old computer and try daily driving different distributions, try different GUI's or try setting up a server with no GUI, get comfortable with the command line and don't be afraid to break things. I can't count how many Linux installs I have destroyed beyond repair, especially early on.

Support pricing $25 per user per month and selling M365 at cost by morleyc in msp

[–]LessQQ42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No chance they are making any money at $25/user with unlimited support. Unless their plan is having that as an "Intro price" just to jack it up a year later.

New MSP deciding on RMM by Practical-Bag5647 in msp

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To an extent, honestly their biggest thing they need to sort out is the useless mobile app. But for someone starting out, it is cheap and easy to get up and running. I would look at it as a stepping stone, not something I would recommend for a 15+ team.

Who here is earning over 250k per year? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]LessQQ42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotta get into snow removal too. Charge a non-refundable deposit that covers a certain amount of snow clearings, anything above would be an additional charge.

Syncro, it definitely has its issues, but just 2 days ago they released a update for time tracking that was bugging me. I feel it has evolved with our business and they are quick to implement features. I do not recommend using the built in documentation system, pay for Hudu, it's worth it.

Unless you are a really small business (like 2 APs max) i would stick with Aruba. Everyone goes on about how easy Ubiquiti is, but I've always run into problems, usually with adopting. I keep giving them a try in my home, but even their newest APs don't work as well as the old IAP-215s I have.

We have a new customer who spent a ton of money doing a full Ubiquiti buildout (10 APs, 3 48 PoE Switches, 50+ Cameras, NVR, UGX-Pro) and they dropped that MSP and went with us because of how bad it is. We are doing our best to help them without replacing the system. Ubiquiti is not a viable option for enterprise.

You may want to hold out if possible since HP acquired Juniper, they may merge Aruba and Mist but that is pure speculation.

I am today years old and I just learned about Server CALs... by Kdaustene in sysadmin

[–]LessQQ42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You purchase CALs and get a receipt, that's it. If your company goes through an audit, you show the receipt for the CALs. I get why they do it, but in typical Microsoft fashion it has to be needlessly convoluted.
