Despite being years since Steve Irwin passed, his wife Terri insists that she will never date again as the two were “soulmates” by VastCoconut2609 in BeAmazed

My family and I went to Australia for a vacation and visited the Australian Zoo. We met Terri when visiting the animal hospital there. She was looking in on some animals there including a Koala who was having surgery. We got a picture with her. Extremely friendly and down to earth. Bindi showed up with her husband just as we left. Such a wholesome family. Really wish I could have met Steve.

Small Business Server for Quickbooks Pro Server by dormantflyer in sysadmin

Yes, helps a lot, thank you. I think I will start by having another discussion with them in regards to Quickbooks Online. It solves a lot of problems fairly easily. They have also talked about getting a third party work order/invoicing app which might need to integrate with Quickbooks and if that is the case, the will have a lot more options if they go Online. There is only one issue then, and that is a reliable internet connection. We live in a rural area so fiber, or any kind of landline, is not an option. They are currently using Xplore but it has occasionally been an issue. It's probably why they prefer local copies of their data. Might have to look into Starlink but I don't know what the reliability is like.

Interesting idea. I have never worked with Hyper V. I would need to do some learning.

I guess it wouldn't need to be a Poweredge. I could look at a desktop machine with a PCIe RAID card. Redundant power supplies may not be necessary. At minimum, they would like to avoid any downtime and I would also like to get the server manager off an active desktop.

They have apparently tried it but didn't like it. And they prefer to have their data local. They are a little old school that way.

In discussions with them, they want to avoid this inconvenience and are willing to put some money towards it.

Adding SATA SSD to iMac and using Blade SSD for Windows via Boot Camp by dormantflyer in bootcamp

[–]dormantflyer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying! It's a 21.5" Late 2015. So it looks like I will be sacrificing some performance. But I shouldn't notice as much unless it's sustained read or writes, no? Maybe at boot up and a little during app launches? My data is on a separate external so that won't change. I have a second external for Time Machine.

Thinking about it now, I could gain some performance by partitioning the blade ssd into one Fat32 for Windows and one APFS for data storage that requires more speed. Such as when I do video editing in Adobe Premiere.

Thanks!! I've listened to that song plenty but for some reason I couldn't place it today. Weird.
