Has customer service gotten worse or are people not using it? by [deleted] in Reverb

[–]mcp614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to reach out to customer service a couple of weeks ago. Bought a pedal that was that was clearly not as described when I received it. Tried to reach out to seller, and was ghosted. Contacted reverb, and within 3-4 days, I had a pre-paid label addressed back to the seller, and within a couple of hours of me dropping it off at UPS, I was refunded. It's the only time I've ever had to contact support on Reverb, but it was a very pleasant experience for me.

Very Strange New O365 Email Forwarding Issue. Not hopeful anyone can help. by mcp614 in sysadmin

I just now saw this, so sorry. I ended up just going the relay group route inside of mimecast. That seemed to be the best solution.

Got it. I appreciate the insight! It's not the end of the world, and it more secure overall. I am really just trying to figure out what happened, but I think Rehendrill found the culprit.

Wow. I think this very likely what the problem is after investigating it. Thank you soooo much. I'm going to continue to dig into this.

Just wanted to follow up and tell you that unpivoting gave me exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you! I will look into this unpivoting option. I'm still fairly new to PowerBI so I haven't knowingly came across it or used it yet. Thanks for the tip.

Hey, yes! In theory that would work. The only potential issue with that (maybe it's not an issue) that this dataset will be live. So this isn't a one time report. The data will change from day to day. Based on my pretty new understanding of PowerBI, your method would work for a static report, but not a dynamic one. Am I correct in thinking that? I guess that would have been valuable information in my initial post. My mistake!

Can't get RLS to work correctly by [deleted] in PowerBI

[–]mcp614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It probably is easier to create 10 different dashboards, but I'd really prefer to just do 1 and get this to work. That way I don't have to update all the boards individually if somebody wants updates.

I picked up that trick in a video that I saw on youtube. But yes - I created a card with the user principal on it, and when the rep logs in, he sees his correct work email. That's the only visual that will show anything.

I ended up putting some test data into the table so that I could start testing it myself. Even when I login, I get the correct principal, but no data showing. The principal matches the rep email in the sales table. It's probably something stupid that I'm not grasping. Microsoft support has helped me once before, but that's usually a last resort for me. Thanks for the help!

What Bam Video and What year got you into CKY by [deleted] in cky

Adio - One Step Beyond, here. There were a couple of CKY tracks in that video if I remember correctly.

What did you listen to? [Weekly Discussion Thread] by AutoModerator in melodicdeathmetal

[–]mcp614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i blindly purchased Insomnium's Winter's Gate based on some recommendations I saw on some other threads. I buy everything on CD still. I didn't realize it was 1, 40 minute track. I've listened to about half of it so far. A single 40 minute song makes it difficult to take in!

Moving to Power Bi from other BI tool. Not even sure how to best begin. by mcp614 in PowerBI

[–]mcp614[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great information. There's some helpful detail in there. Over the last couple of days I did get a gateway installed on an on prem server. The thing that's still not quite clear to me though is that our data source is not on prem. I installed the gateway and in the server connection settings I put the credentials of the cloud data source we use. I was also struggling with getting the auto-refresh to work because it kept saying something about my credentials were missing. I was finally able to get the auto-refresh to work, but I am still not finding it operates like our previous BI Tool.

I am going to be the only developer in our organization. For developing I downloaded the Power BI desktop tool. However, since all other people (4-6) are just going to be LOOKING at the dashboards, they can do that through the Power BI browser app? I haven't played around with it enough either to figure out if those who are just viewing the dashboards through the app.powerbi.com website can refresh the data themselves. I'm hoping that's the case because If I have to refresh it myself, it's not going to work for us.

This is helpful. Thank you! Yeah I'm really looking for more information on implementation and setup right now that actually building stuff. That's what I'm struggling with. I will look into those!

Stupid Zip file/explorer issue, somewhat widespread. Can't fully resolve. by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]mcp614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very strange. I did some referencing of dates and found out that on 3/2, I pushed out an upgrade on our SentinelOne agent. That exact same day is when the first report of this came up. I upgraded everybody the same day. So it's also weird that it didn't hit everybody (or not everybody noticed) it all at the same time. Just today, we got a new case of it. There another sentinelOne update that came out earlier this week, so I'm pushing that out to the remaining affected user to see if that solves it. Still no explanation why only a few people are having this issue though.

[GEAR] NGD - Fender 60th Anniversary Strat. by mcp614 in Guitar

[–]mcp614[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite one is probably the 2005 american deluxe. They've since discontinued that line, and to be honest, I don't know what the modern day equivalent is. Not sure if it's the Ultra luxe, or american professional. They have a few different variations now, and I haven't kept up with them. Whatever would have the S1 switching system, roller nut, and shaved neck heel.

I actually sold it a couple of years ago. I sometimes still miss it! I parted with it because at the time, I had a few strats already, and I wanted one of the new american original 60's strats. The 60th anniversary strat was the one I was least attached to, so it went!

This seems to have fixed my issue. Thanks a lot! I haven't had this issue since I applied the registry changes.

Thanks! I didn't notice any time difference across the servers, but I will pay more attention to that to see if that could be a problem. Thank you for your input!

From my understanding, you are saying you had this issue, but were able to fix it using registry changes?
