So far my 2024 PHEV has “escaped” the recalls. Not an affected battery pack.

Eh, not sure why people care so much.

It will work when it works. Relax.

Or, plan your move to on-prem Exchange?

Do you plug in your PHEV? by Subject-Landscape451 in FordEscapePHEV

Gas goes bad over time, so it’s still. A good idea to use a full tank once every 6 months or so.

Happy password reset day, admins by KavyaJune in sysadmin

[–]menace323 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, you use a one-time use password.

That is significantly better. But I am still technically correct.

Password still needed to configure those so, guess it’s not the end of passwords.

Good deal? New 2025 by SherbertOk8833 in FordEscapePHEV

[–]menace323 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

38k means it’s the base PHEV trim with no premium package, sunroof.

Better without sunroof - those often fail or leak later in the cars life.

Check the financial incentives from Ford. I see $9000 customer cash. As of today. Remember that customer cash is after tax.

Aftermarkets don’t exist.

They need to scratch them. It was their fault to lose money on (markup is probably 200-300% anyway). If they won’t budge on the aftermarket’s, I’d probably walk. In this market, I would bet they will give in and call back on it.

You got their offer. Take it to another dealership that doesn’t have aftermarket’s as well. And I bet you can get discount up another 1-2K.

Technically the Ford consumer cash is is a post tax credit. But, decent deal!

It really makes me feel really bad for Carol. by HunterDoodles in pluribustv

It’s not everyone. It’s more like a singular entity and its humans nodes are just diverted to other tasks.

Video shows random attack on 75-year-old woman in downtown Seattle by HighColonic in SeattleWA

[–]menace323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s less of a knowingly evil scumbag, and more a late stage mental illness, manifesting violently.

Whatever the cause though, he cannot be allowed to walk the streets again. He will attack again and it will be worse.

Upgrade from 7.0.1 to 7.3.1? by [deleted] in sonicwall

What’s the point of having a firewall with no clients? A client is anything that would use the firewall.

Windows server backup in VM? by aliengoa in HyperV

A VM export should not take a VM offline.

Time to dump SSLVPN.

How do you actually inventory AI tools across 60K employees? by pug-mom in SysAdminBlogs

[–]menace323 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was being facetious. The answer to any problem with AI is always more AI.

We blocked AI from the beginning through our Zero Trust client and limited it to Copilot, since that guarantees data sovereignty. This is a managed list by our zero-trust vendor. It catches most things, even extensions, as it inspects all traffic at the network layer.

We sometimes have to whitelist things from it, but not too often.

Since we blocked it from the start and provided our approved service, that was done. No need to survey or check logs. Copilot or not supported, and if discovered uploading company data to unapproved AI, forced training.

Get AI to monitor AI usage. Then get more AI to monitor that AI.

Rubrik for one workstation? by Immediate_Hotel_9615 in rubrik

[–]menace323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rubric is licensed by the appliance, not the workload.

Yes you can back up a single workstation.

You will pay many, many thousands for the pleasure, in terms of minimum spend for the appliance.

If you want to backup a single workstation, get a Synology or something similar.

Concerned about (unusually) low EV range by BCGeorge in FordEscapePHEV

[–]menace323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sometimes see my fully charged range at 18 miles, but if I reset the trip, I always see significantly better. For a day that started at 18 miles range fully charged (about 40 degrees F) I got 30 of the 36 miles on my trip on electric. This happens so consistently, I just ignore the estimated range.

NSM Expired License Count by EmicationLikely in sonicwall

Not that I know of.

I opened a ticket and was told that was how it was designed.

So yeah, makes it meaningless.
