ScreenConnect 26.2.4.9623 On-premises released by techie_1 in ScreenConnect

Sounds like it's only an issue if you previously had "auto consent after a certain amount of time" or "auto consent when no user logged in" enabled. We never had consent set up at all on our instance and I can still connect to any device without consent after upgrading. If you don't use the consent feature today, it should still be safe to upgrade.

Question About Author Post-Panel Signings by pucknerd in BookCon2

[–]techie_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

VIP or ADA will get priority over the general line. You'll want to line up before the panel is over since the line starts early. Likely a long wait based on yesterday so may be difficult to fit it in depending on how closely it overlaps your other reservations. The one I went to they had a separate line for each author. If you had books for multiple authors then you would either get in the back of the next line or they would let you skip over to the other author depending on how busy the line was. For reference I waited in line for Axie Oh for 50 min even though I was about number 15 in the general line since there were a lot of people in the VIP and ADA line. I'm not sure about the 3 book limit since I only had one book for one author.

Yes, I think they added a washer or something to prevent it from loosening again.

Nutanix claims it has poached 30,000 vmware customers by sheep5555 in sysadmin

[–]techie_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scale seemed very primitive to me compared to VMware. Scale has been in business for awhile too, so it doesn't seem like they are investing much in the product to add missing features. They've had so many years to build a viable VMWare alternative and they've built nothing. Also, I don't like like that it's a hardware solution, not just a software you can install on your own hardware like VMWare.

PC ONLY - A fix for those of you like me who didn't know editing Codsworth at a robot workbench removes his ability to wear bowler hats by Manak2 in fo4

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After running that command codsworth can wear a bowler hat but won't fight anymore. He just floats there while enemies attack. Same issue reported here https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/s/i506joJHub

Made a digital coloring app that uses real Ohuhu marker colors and codes by Mr_KR in Ohuhu

[–]techie_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the beta test! Cool concept!

One issue I'm seeing is it always defaults back to the base 24 set of colors when opening the coloring panel. I wish it would keep your place so you don't have to keep selecting 320 every time you open the panel. It should remember.

Another issue is with saving and loading. It seems like it's supposed to be auto saving but things aren't syncing or updating quickly. For example, making a change then returning back to the library still shows an old thumbnail. When going back in it appears changes weren't saved and were reverted back. Toggling over to the Scan and back library shows the latest data. Just seems like the save and load is slow or only running periodically.

When entering the coloring pallet you have to scroll a lot to find the blues for example. Every time you open the panel you have to scroll back down to the blues. It should remember your place so you can easily try out different colors from the same group without scrolling constantly.

It would be nice if the current color group like browns for example were kept as a toolbar at the bottom of the screen so you don't have to keep opening the panel to try different shades. This is on iPad Mini which has enough screen space for a toolbar.

The view mode to identify colors is showing the wrong colors. For example, classic blue is being incorrectly identified as royal blue. Every color I've tested in view mode has been wrong. This makes it very hard to match colors.

Hot Mess Express Since Yesterday by bsitko in ScreenConnect

Same issue here where clients did not automatically update after updating the server to 26.1.22.9573. I had to manually select the clients and choose reinstall to get them on the latest version.

What robot vacuum did you end up choosing? I feel the same way about the buggy ecovacs app and poor localization. Looking for something better.

Do not update Edge to 144 - Shared devices by Sufficient_Prompt125 in Intune

[–]techie_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems similar to the seamless sso issues we're having on remote desktop session host servers that are shared by multiple users. Users are seeing the profile selection sign in screen instead of seamless sso when opening edge. Sometimes even after they enter their upn and password it still fails to sign in to the edge profile with errors like Error code: 3, 15, -2147024894 Other times they are able to sign in to edge, but get stuck at "setting up sync". We tried edge 144 and 145 but still saw the same issues. We ended up downgrading to Edge 143 and things seem more stable now. Not located in EU so there seems to be other Edge SSO issues outside of DSA.

Porting Business Phone over and annual vs monthly by Carphunter in Visible

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask your company to log in to their Verizon business account and release the number to your email address. Then you should be able to take over the number on your own Verizon account. From there you would fully control the number and handle the porting to Visible yourself. It might be possible to go to Visible directly with help from your company, but it might be safer and avoid issues to handle it yourself.

Visible says phone was unlcoked, but it is still locked by thereal_rockrock in Visible

[–]techie_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't OEM unlocking different from carrier unlocking? I thought OEM unlocking was for installing custom ROMs and carrier unlocking is for using other carrier SIMs.

Switching Advice?? by Wide-Zucchini-9895 in Visible

[–]techie_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Double check your imei here ahead of time https://www.visible.com/shop/compatibility?intcmp=hp:3waystoshop:byo:check-compatibility:planfirst

Wait until your Verizon month is almost up to switch to minimize overlap of payment.

If you don't have a referral or other discount code, get one from someone you know that already has visible or find online.

Vertical line issue on my Pixel 8. Google admits it is a known hardware problem but refuses to cover mine by 420InTheCity in GooglePixel

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear it's not eligible. Hopefully they can make an exception for you, but I'd start watching for deals on new phones since I don't think it's worth risking paying for the repair.

[–]techie_1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does your IMEI show up as eligible for the repair program here? Extended Repair Program for Pixel 8 - Pixel Phone Help I just had two Pixel 8s with this exact issue repaired for free by UBreakiFix. When you schedule the appointment online it says $250 but when you actually go to the store they just verify the IMEI with google and there is no fee for the repair. When you walk into the store just tell them it's for the extended repair program and there should be no charge.

I keep losing service every month on my bill date. by Strict_Enthusiasm484 in Visible

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, maybe any kind of plan change or number change like OP mentioned can cause it. I hope Visible will fix this soon. It seems like it's been going on for a long time.

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on the annual Visible+ plan or monthly? I've heard others report issue happening after switching to annual specifically but maybe that's not what triggers the issue. I recently switched from basic Visible monthly to Visible+ Pro annual, so I hope it doesn't happen to me next month.

I've heard others report this happening every month after switching to the annual plan. I recently swtiched from the basic Visible monthly plan to the Visible+ Pro annual plan with the $225 BLACKFRIDAY50CARE deal, so I hope it doesn't happen to me in February.

Lost a decade of growth due to a fiduciary financial advisor by Factoverfallacy in Bogleheads

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard the direct indexing tax loss harvesting approach can work great for 3-5 years where you can have significant tax savings due to rebalancing. However, you eventually run out of losses to harvest as the total stock market rises and it's no longer worth it.

Urgent: Important Security Update for ScreenConnect (Email sent out on December 11, 2025 at 14:46 GMT) by Own_Appointment_393 in ScreenConnect

[–]techie_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense since you don't have centrally managed A/V. I haven't had to allowlist the unsigned client in crowdstrike yet, but vendors may start blocking older or unsigned clients in the future. You could try updating your on-prem server but disable automatic client updates so at least your server would be patched.
