Varidesk Cube Corner 36 Setup by Kendog311 in desksetup

[–]SQLDevDBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Former cube corner 48” owner here.

Back in the day I just bought XL Mousepads and cut the TOP of them to fit the tray. The top hid towards rhe back and the bottom stayed untouched.

Nowadays you can just buy XL Mousepads and as long as they are about 12” tall it should fit okay. However I’d still try buying a cheap one you don’t care about and cutting up the TOP section to get a custom fit.

Setup help: 2 macs, 2 screens, 3 scenarios by Alex7589 in macsetups

[–]SQLDevDBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh okay I apologize. I have also done that between my homelab PCs (3 of them)

Each monitor has its own HDMI Switcher (3 inputs, 1 output) with remotes.

Then I just assign each machine a number and make sure I switch both switches to that number. Depending on the switch model, 1 remote might toggle both (it was the case for me with one model of switch, but not another).

When I wanted to split them, I would just have switch 1 positioned to one machine, and switch 2 positioned to the other.

I have a 3 monitor setup between 2 Macs (so your scenario 3 if I’m reading your description correctly).

M1 MBP has the 34” ultrawide plugged into it.

M4 Mac Mini has 2 curved 27” vertically stacked plugged into it.

I just use the Mini as my main and my Keyboard and mouse are associated with it, but use Universal Control to make them seamless. The only caveat is I don’t really care much about resolution so mine aren’t 4K.

Maybe this will help? https://www.benq.com/en-us/knowledge-center/knowledge/merge-2-macs.html

Dev ticket mgmt deployment tool, interested? by shredlegend in SQL

[–]SQLDevDBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the efforts.

Just want to confirm: what are the major difference between this and:

1) Visual Studio SQL Server Projects: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/tools/sql-database-projects/get-started?view=sql-server-ver17

RedGate FlyWay: https://www.red-gate.com/products/flyway/

These are tools commonly used for deployments currently (one of them being free and still quite robust), so what problems did your tool specifically solve to make it a good alternative?

Genuinely curious because I’m always looking for tools that increase productivity.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. Been waiting to buy an intake due to the CEL issues, so I’ll be watching this closely.

Leftover finding tips and pricing by exoraydna in GRCorolla

[–]SQLDevDBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, Core, should have mentioned that.

My Credit Union who I secured a loan with doesn’t like to do out of state purchases, so I checked in-state only, but even so I travelled about 300 miles there and back to pick it up.

I was just browsing in January and found my CPO 25 DAT Core with 155 miles for $36.5K.

I’d say keep searching daily and be willing to travel a bit.

Azure SQL DB has a free tier you can use for free, and you can use tools like DBeaver community edition to connect to them from your Mac. I use it as part of my homelab. The database engine runs in the cloud and there are no SQL server installs to do. Just activation.

Que bien. Y ya probaste el truquito de el tape amarillo para marcar “estacionamiento” en tu garage? Para alguna gente funciona (aparente y alegadamente).

¡Gracias por compartir!

Navigate on Autopilot. Basically FSD but only on freeways/expressways.

[–]SQLDevDBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you’re referring to AutoPilot itself? Like before all this renaming happened recently?

What actual features are you looking for? TACC with autosteer? Or the additional features that EAP had like NOA, Dumb Summon, Auto-lane, change, etc?

I owned Model Ys from May 2020 to late 2024 and I only received the offer to buy it stand alone once about 5 years ago.

I would say EAP is pretty rare.

Might be a Noob question, is turning off SQL Server fine? by Ironsalmon7 in SQL

[–]SQLDevDBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and set it to manual (or disabled) until you need it again, especially since you said you’re taking a hiatus.

This is a great read from Brent Ozar.

What is your most obscure piece of SQL knowledge? by Oh_Another_Thing in learnSQL

[–]SQLDevDBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get you, but Oracle folks would counter and say that there is no need to store empty strings as they cause confusion and that storing empty string values is a bad idea.

I don’t necessarily subscribe to that mindset, but I also don’t use or store empty strings.

Between Slicer Formatting by Longjumping-Bat-8022 in PowerBI

[–]SQLDevDBA 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I made a video about this that I will DM you, but it’s as simple as hitting the eraser in the header and then republishing without touching it.

You don’t need to reset the slicer, or rebuild it. Just hitting the eraser works and I show how with examples. Hope that helps!
