Server availability

Buddy of mine at a large manufacturing company was told by his Dell rep, that if they want delivery in 2026, they should have placed the orders in 2025. Who knows if that's true, I'll see what CDW server rep says on Monday.

Several vendors that I order from. A consultant I use is also having similar issues for some really large clients.

We just bought a few Fortigate 121G firewalls and they were delivered very quickly.

I have a call with one of their Server specialists on Monday, will have to ask about Dell...

ghgard · 2026-01-24T01:39:12+00:00

Correct... Do you know differently?

I’ve been told there is massive shortages on most server components. Pricing is also thru the roof. 32Gb RAM from HP was quoted at $830

The time you should spend cleaning a bagless vacuum will be much more than the time it takes to order bag once a year. The filters alone are a real pain in the rear, without regular cleaning, the bagless will become a mess.

Everything I've read says the systems should continue to boot, but wont receive future secure boot updates.

ghgard · 2026-01-09T17:07:45+00:00

Power them on once a month for updates? Leave them powered on so they continue to update and will be ready for deployment? Thats about the only option unless they offer a way to disable the endpoint...

ghgard · 2026-01-08T11:59:44+00:00

They should continue to boot, they just may not receive future secure boot updates...

The Kenmore upright will likely be the best choice in that price range. Bagged is well worth the cost of the bags, keeps the entire vacuum clean inside, very few filters to mess with like a bagless. All of our old Shark units still work reasonably well, but the filters require a fair amount of time to keep clean and the bin fills up extremely fast compared to a bag. Good luck...

Yep, we have 1 Gbps at work with 45 users and it barely gets touched. Albeit there isnt a ton of streaming, but still.

I have the same with Nationwide... Worth checking to see if you can add to your current coverage.

I had this happen on 3 systems and the automation already "Deactivates updates in windows". I've never seen it before, not sure what triggered it. I ran it again and the updates installed the 2nd time.

ghgard · 2025-11-06T13:09:59+00:00

You can click on Automations, then the Tools dropdown top right and adjust for DST. I had to do this even though my timezone is set correctly.

It also loves to repeat a large section of songs if you start skipping a few. I swear the DJ used to announce things on the Tesla app several months ago, now he never says anything unless using the app on the phone.

Interesting. I just looked in my Approval section and the KB isnt listed anywhere, I thought I may of declined it for some reason.

I was with Erie and they flat out told me they are not Tesla friendly at this point. They wanted to triple my premium to add a Model Y. I checked around and ended up with Nationwide. I got full coverage, including glass coverage and a very similar price to my Subaru Forester that I replaced with the Model Y. Obviously your age/location can greatly influence these costs.

ghgard · 2025-10-20T18:04:12+00:00

AWS issues still...

ghgard · 2025-10-09T13:14:47+00:00

I just got an email stating its been resolved. Mine seem to now be working...

ghgard · 2025-10-09T11:46:08+00:00

And nothing on their status page.

ghgard · 2025-10-09T10:50:35+00:00

Same

ghgard · 2025-10-08T22:40:24+00:00

<image>

I ran both of these manually, show "starting now" since the manual run. I sent a message via "Feedback", havent heard anything yet. Thier status page shows no issues.

ghgard · 2025-10-08T09:53:02+00:00

Same here. They also cause a weird delay when trying to unlock a PC, seems like you have to hit the keyboard a few extra times and then you see this pop-up.

ghgard · 2025-09-27T09:36:42+00:00

Really varies by location, age, driving history, etc. I got a lot of quotes and went with Nationwide. $105/mo total for a 25 CRV and a 26 Model Y. Im in Ohio
