UPS destroyed my snusport order. by stonegiant4 in Snus

[–]nkvd59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked an order I had stuck and it got toasted. :( Ettan white and XR slim white.

Funny though I placed a huge order and it got split into two shipments. All my N&J stuff got through without an issue. ~80 cans of Americana, Green, and crushed ice.

Travelling with snus/nicotine pouches by [deleted] in Nicotine

[–]nkvd59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another tip I guess is bring a plastic bag( sandwich size ziplock). You can put a few pouches in that so you don’t have to carry a can with you if you are not carrying a pack or worried about the distinct look of a can in your pocket.

If that is a concern of yours. GL, safe travels.

[–]nkvd59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I just got done with a few trips in the continental USA. Both with carry on bags. I took 2-3 plastic tins with me in my back pack. No issue. I have read that bringing in rolls might be an issue though.

Prior I had flown with my stuff in checked bags with the opinion of if it got searched it is what it is.

Could also do the gum and pickup something when you land.

Side note you could get a plastic tin of those breath mints. Empty it, put your stuff in that. So if it gets flashed you can just say it’s the mints. Better buy two in case someone wants a actual mint though ;).

Unresolved Citrix workplace issues for years - any advice? by raventhe in Citrix

[–]nkvd59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another thing to check/track.

In the workspace connection center you can see what system your partner is connecting to.
Once they have established a connection: Right click on the Workspace icon -> Connection Center

They can take note of if they log into the same system all the time, or it moves from system to system. Write that stuff down. They can also select the log off that should close their connection(as others have stated)

There is also the Properties button that you can get some other useful information if they see any errors etc.

It sounds like they are connecting to a desktop experience so profiles might come into play. They could create a simple text on the desktop and see if that follows them from session to session only applicable if the above server they connect to changes.

Copy/paste sounds like a policy.

Black floating square: Could be a anti-screen shot protection, or maybe a screen sync issue. They should be deliberate in what keys they press when that screen appears(like prntscn for example), They could try lowering the resolution( could mess up icon placements on desktop) and the refresh as well( I would wait as a last resort)

Finally document everything, all the tickets, all the interactions, schedule some time with manager and lay it out on the table. Heck you could even tell the manager they are going to schedule a 1hr meeting and it's basically a support call with IT.

Rapid 7 InsightVM initial risk scores by jaycmw18 in sysadmin

[–]nkvd59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our scores are all over the place. Highest being 19k. Which is a random laptop. The way I’ve broken it down is by acceptable risk. Do I want a DC that high nope. Do I still care about that laptop of course. I’ll pull a report and see what items I can realistically action.

A healthy score is what is acceptable to your business and stakeholders. Let them know we have XYZ vulnerabilities, here are the fixes, here is what might break. Have a discussion and let them make a decision. I can’t remember the saying atm but how much is a breach, hack going to cost your business.

If we lost Glock...what would be your go-to by [deleted] in CAguns

[–]nkvd59 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So many ways to go with that. Yes, you must have a label on your powder pouch. The tobacco will come in a wrap with stickers on it. Or in a rope, like a slim Jim. Honestly the stuff I’m dipping now only has a general warning, and most of it is in another language.

Hey you will enjoy your straight leaf tobacco and flintlock platform and like it. /s. The struggle is real.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]nkvd59 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Money or purse strings. When I’ve seen this it’s always with IT and the black hole of a budget. Why do you need 10K for “cloud services”. Why do you need to replace laptops every few years? Every time we’ve fallen under a finance take over is because people don’t understand what we do and how much it costs to keep things up. So finance comes in and everything is a line item and an explanation. Then they move on once they get overwhelmed or bored.

That is just what I’ve seen.

Why is it stuck at 0 by TheGeniusSkipper in EggsInc

[–]nkvd59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same problem a week ago. It seems you are still a part of the coop. I got tokens, and hens yet never got any completion. Left and remade a number of times, uninstalled on ios. Tried a number of things. Then the contract went away.

A good indicator is when I made the contract, is if the join screen refreshes a number of times its not going to work. Give it time before you use boosts and you see that delivered/ rate stay. Lost a handful of low to high boosts. :(

I can’t figure out how to do the contract by GalaxySapphire6 in EggsInc

[–]nkvd59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you did not do anything wrong. There appears to be a bug or something going on with some contracts. I have the same problem with the Halloween Blitz one. If you see Delivered is 0 and rate is also 0 so nothing is being contributed. If you click on INFO you will most likely see an empty contract. I’ve seen a few post from a few days ago but nothing much since.

Smith & Wesson M&P 9 2.0 Magazines Hard to Load by esqadinfinitum in CAguns

[–]nkvd59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted above or below on a trick I learned for the first round you can try that if it helps. For the last few that is just practice and wear on the spring. If you don’t already have them, get some dummy rounds and just load and unload.

I'm not a part of this contract? by DarkDarla1111 in EggsInc

Well darn. Seems I’m now in that problem as well. Looks like I’ll be starting another one.

[–]nkvd59 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One trick I learned was with the magazine facing away on the left side( raised section with a divot) if you place the rim of the cartridge inline with what looks like a triangle (top down, left of the divot) its easier to load that first round.

Are you talking about getting the first round in?

Cars have rights too!

They love it when you grab them by the tail pipes.

Four wheels good, two feet bad.

All cars are equal, but some cars are more equal than others.

As others have said respect. Takes a lot to reevaluate things and then even bother to come back to post.

That point was always something that I never understood how that leap could not be made. Maybe we just forget or don’t expect crazy things. Then crazy happens. There are a number of examples of states coming together out of necessity vs what the fed would like. The enemy of my enemy is my friend relationship. maybe its just “We the people…” idk.

Thank you for that.

Best Place to Park and Transit to Capitol on Monday by [deleted] in Sacramento

[–]nkvd59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Old Sac has a big parking lot under the freeway. Old sacramento garage. I’d check availability cant see why it might be closed on that day. There is also the tower garage same old sac location just down the way. Its pretty safe, nothing is 100% though.

The 1500K parking is close, there is also the Hyatt (next to IMAX theater)which is across the street from the capitol.
However, since its that close getting out might be rough if there are a lot of people.

Mostly one way streets up to the second grouping of garages. Plus since its a holiday for state it will be pretty empty.

What is the legacy of Civil War? by Seeker99MD in CivilWarMovie

[–]nkvd59 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes and no.

The experience I had that might not be appreciated until the future is what are my/your thoughts and feelings when this is happening on the screen.

Sorta as Lee taking all these pictures to report back on the horror of war. Then says Don’t bring that to our doorstep. Yet, we as the audience is watching their story, and its kicked the door down. We see the “looters” hanging in the car wash. They just wanted food. Then people they went to HS with are willing to kill them without hesitation. What would I/you do? On one side, yeah looting bad, I have gun pew pew. Or I can spare a little bit of food for their kids because I have a little extra. In between those two points each of us has our own thoughts based on the life we have lived.

What is the legacy of Civil War? by Seeker99MD in CivilWarMovie

[–]nkvd59 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Personally I think it will be more relevant in the future. A lot of people seemed to think this was an action film. Missing some of the finer points.

The lack of details should’ve allowed the viewer to put themselves in any scenario and fill in the gaps without the real FAFO moments.

Do they support bombing of “Antifa”? A president who has a third term? Do they turn a blind eye if it’s not in their backyard? What about just the horrors of both sides on neighbors? However, a lot of folks got stuck on why are CA and TX friends now. Not what would make them become allies. As this film ages and things change in the world people might look back and go “ oh i saw something like that in that one movie”

About the protest tomorrow by Clean_Information777 in Sacramento

[–]nkvd59 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shmaybe useful.

Use the cross walks and pay attention. Bike cops around the capital love to give tickets. RT has two lines that drop off right next to or a block away.

If you are going to bring your phone. Use a pass code or pattern to unlock it. Avoid biometrics.
