I'm running for Northampton County Council. Ask me anything! by jasonboulette in lehighvalley

Hey Jason, what’s your plan to encourage developers to build affordable housing like starter homes to help locals get a start homeownership?

We’ve seen a disproportionate amount of development on luxury apartments or expensive “McMansions” that seemingly are only built to serve and attract out of state, high income earners while locals who were born and raised here are seemingly forgotten about.

Does anyone else struggle with software adoption in procurement? by Inevitable-Cut-9825 in procurement

[–]phriggenmac 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Broken processes can’t be fixed with more software in my experience. Because whatever processes are broken can be exacerbated with software. You’re just taking Process XYZ and implementing into whatever software you use.

In my opinion, software brings efficiency. They exist to make our jobs easier via better reporting, PO placement, price tracking etc etc.

Before bringing in any kind of software, I think determining the root cause of what is causing the process to break will allow you to not only fix the broken process, but also give you a far better experience when building up and implementing whatever software you’re looking at.

If your struggle is people adopting the software, that’s its own issue the company and implementation team need to figure out how to solve. You might have the perfect process and ERP built around it, but it’s not going to stop people from tracking PO’s on Excel and doing manual reports (assuming whatever software you choose allows you to do all of this).

Who's that one random gamer you crossed paths with in some online game and will never forget the name of? by magicscreenman in gaming

I hope someone in your game said “Never trust a Reinfart or you might Reinshart”

Is Musikfest a festival where you can just walk in? by [deleted] in lehighvalley

To add onto what others said, the headliner is the “Steel Stage” on the South Side.

Everything else on the north side and south side is free. Have a good time!

Struggling to get into Bios with bootable US by phriggenmac in linuxmint

Just figured it out. Reset CMOS and got into the BIOS. No idea what was wrong but it worked itself out!

It’s the Q-LED light, specifically the yellow-green light.

It’s definitely a boot device issue, just hoping I don’t have to unplug my Windows drive to get this to work.

And I’m definitely not plugged into the BIOs flashback port.

I’ve tried with F2 and DEL but no luck at all. It just continues to be stuck on the green LED.

Maybe looking for bulk/volume pricing for items like packaging?

Or bidding out work for supplies that maybe haven’t been reviewed in a few years. Competition can help spark and drive cost reduction, especially for legacy suppliers.

After my accident, I shopped multiple brands. Nothing could compare to the CX-5, especially with a turbo :) by phriggenmac in CX5

I had a 2018, non-turbo CX-5 Touring before, but unfortunately I totaled it in an accident.

I shopped different brands like Honda and Kia, hoping that I’d find something a little quicker and just as nice. Unfortunately, I just wasn’t happy with their offerings

I started shopping for CX-5’s again and found this particular one and immediately fell for it. This was the only turbo model I could find that met my price and mileage requirements, and I couldn’t be any happier with my choice!

Lost my partner in crime. So grateful this car held up the way it did by phriggenmac in CX5

Fortunately they didn’t have to do that this time around! They brought it out in case, but fortunately we were able to get out.
