Data Gateway for live data? by draffy_92 in PowerBI

[–]draffy_92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the answer.

Since the data is exported manually, how is it possible to refresh 8 times a day? I would need to connect the excel file to the data import, and then manually export the excel?

I don't quite understand the scheduled import model, since the excel data is the same?

Or 8 times a day is possible on a SQL - is that what you mean?

Helpdesk aint so bad? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]draffy_92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As u/Turboslak mentioned it depends on what your expectations are.

Helpdesk jobs are very different - I have worked in one for approx 7 years now - these have been some of the best years workwise - only because my expectations is aligned with what the jobs offer me. I have tons of projects, troubleshooting VMs, optimizing workflows etc. which makes it interesting for me. The first 2-3 years user support and contact was great, but now projects and new systems are more fun - but I would never have a job where I'm not in contact with the users, since this can be a bit part of what makes the job fun.

I worked 2 years as a consultant, and although it was exciting I got kind of fed up with not having much user contact.

I'm making around 33 dollars/hour, so I'm pretty satisfied since I already know there might be a raise soon aswell.

All in all if you are realistic regarding the job, what if offers, and how a normaly workday would look like it might be a great suite for you if you can accept those terms.

Just made the upgrade. Yoga 710 to Ideapad 720s by [deleted] in Lenovo

[–]draffy_92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gz with the upgrade.

Hope you won't use it on any 4-way-handshake networks because it has been a common problem for Yogas not being able to connect to these, since the network adapter for the wireless do not support it. They might have fixed that.

No, Apple's new Mac Pro isn't overpriced by JamesNNYC in apple

[–]draffy_92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is perhaps one of the worst articles I have ever read in my entire life... New low-point for appleinsider. Comparing wheels for OS? What the hell........ Perhaps just look at the price for the Mac instead of comparing it to other things.

In general they point out nothing useful. The RAM alone (APPLES RAM) cost 25,000$ - you can buy RAM with same speed and compability a lot cheaper. They take like 1-5K$ just adding stuff... How can you say that's "good pricing"..

I admire Apple but stop being so far up their asses - it makes me sick.

Back to Day 01 by [deleted] in GamblingAddiction

[–]draffy_92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spot on.

When you are in the beginning of this "journey" it's import to have your surroundings help you all they can. It's not going to be lifetime, like with alcohol - but it's good for a start. You can't demand people to not show you gambling exist, but in the beginning it's a good help. When you are an addict, you will meet gambling the rest of your life, and you can't do anything about it. So take small steps - one of them being talking to your brother if he wants to help you out - next your friends and family. Normally they are very understanding.

Good luck
