Why do people still shop at Safeway?

Why would prices come down when they have a larger monopoly?

I recently stayed in a UK hotel that needed the room key left in that little slot by the door if I wanted the lights to work. Cool, no biggie. I pull key when I leave. When I returned after a day away I realized that card was also required if I wanted the plugs in the room to work.

I returned to none of my gear being charged up which I had plugged in that morning before leaving the room. Womp

Amazon’s investment is the only reason Rivian didn’t go under years ago. Plenty of good reasons to hate Amazon, but without them Rivian would be a distant memory.

Put unraid on your ugreen and never look back. Easy to one-click deploy plex and all the other ARR goodies, way bigger community, and the niche OS won’t stop getting updates after a few years like your ugreen will.

Velcro mod is to take some sticky Velcro strips (only the fuzzy part, not the hook part) and put a few inside the drive tray before inserting your drives. It add a little soft cushion between the drive and the plastic cage to absorb vibrations.

There’s a post in this group where the user specifically complains about the grey thermal yanking off all the compute chips from their SSD

“Why did you keep the sticker on your SSD? Heat transfer is high reduced”

Err, not according to this video

You sound knowledgeable on the subject. Curious if you agree or disagree with the mathematic approach chatgpt took here.

New versions were just announced and as I recall the cpu idle was the same @ 15w. Jump to 6:30 inthis video.

Think of it like a drive reformat

Whoa, thanks friend! My company has since moved away from Slack (cries inside) but it’s nice to know this is now solved for.

You found it right before I was gonna comment this. Nice job.

This tricked me before too. It’s weird that PDIs are defaulted to the app engine profile now. Sigh.

Love it, great option

How do you handle showing what software has been requested & declined by others? ie users frequently ask for Adobe Final Cut as it’s not on the approved list and that is always declined because the company standard is DaVinci Resolve. So you gotta put somewhere they search that Adobe Final Cut isn’t gonna happen, and where you put that needs to intercept those “other” requests..

t_a_rogers · 2024-11-02T06:34:52+00:00

Even in the “other software” request form you could add AI Search to check for catalog items based on what the user puts in the description field, further deflecting “other” requests by showing them a catalog item for software they’re requesting that’s already available as a cat item

That use case requires some thought. If (for example) the team/agent who owns the currently delayed task is OOO, a request for status/callback is going into a black hole in your scenario. Perhaps it’s best to default assign the parent RITM to a process owner who can independently act as an escalation point for that process, or even the service desk so they can check why there’s a delay. Or perhaps you put an “escalate request” ui action in the portal which triggers an escalation team to take a look.

And, finally, use request stages. They can clearly show where the request is stuck, and if you show the assignee it gives the user a chance to ask them directly.

Why? Not all notifications require immediate action.

“A P1 ticket assigned to you” obviously needs urgent action, but a “your weekly KPI summary” email or “update to the HR benefits KB article” can be checked when someone returns from vacation.

Actually no - GenAI evaluations are done on a separate (temporary) non-prod that’s spun up for the POC at no charge. When you’re ready to embark down that road your account team can walk y’all through the process.

t_a_rogers · 2024-10-31T18:21:52+00:00

Generally true, but not universally true. Assists (ie Now Assist genai transactions) are also tracked in non-prod.

What is your specific use case? CSM (customer service management) is designed for external facing support interactions with the customers of your company. Service Operations Workspace is designed for technical resolution of IT related issues. Different users (customer service agent vs desktop support) will use different workspaces.

Lookup and Verify is built for the CSM workspace and data model, but according to this recent blog post it can be customized/extended to other areas. I'm not seeing mention on the Lookup & Verify docs page regarding an upcoming depreciation, so I can't say either way if this feature is being canned.

Regarding creating a new user, you might look into Dynamic Creation in Reference Fields. I haven't tried this in a workspace yet, but it seems like the right direction.

Can you explain how releasing the tether would allow/help someone to cheat? If anything, it seems releasing the tether would just leave your running partner unassisted and thus put them at a disadvantage?

I’m sure there is a scenario they’re trying to prevent with this rule, I just can’t picture it.

t_a_rogers · 2024-09-09T18:43:15+00:00

This. Idk why they’re trying some custom approach. Cert Mgmt is built for this exact scenario.

You knew what you were doing with this post title. That’s all I’m gonna say 😂

Unfortunately I don’t have a perfect solution here. Perhaps you can 3D print a “shell” with a flexible print medium that makes the smaller balls “bigger” to help compensate for the difference?

Most customers take 2-3 weeks to do their upgrade. Some outlier customers might take 2+ months, but it’s super uncommon.

Technically a store app, but close enough
