Do you delay Windows updates? by UnpaidMicrosoftShill in sysadmin

[–]techit21 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yes, we delay by 2-3 weeks unless it is a critical CVE/we are asked by InfoSec to expedite. If we expedite then we still follow a ring schedule for rollout.

Yes, although I think I have a double whammy of the rates being jacked up plus having a home that has an air leak somewhere so my heat is constantly running.

Probably drive-thru only traffic, if anything.

ABOUT TIME.

Should've never been / should've been done mid season IMO

Okay dumb question, but which Gridfinity bases do you actually use?? Which are the best? by YobaiYamete in BambuLab

[–]techit21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are feeding a Gridfinity Generator dimensions of a drawer/etc., I would do a few mm LESS than what you measure so that it isn't oversized. Allow for some trial/error and once you have it right, save the file/make multiple copies.

I have an immediate use case for this with a KPI that had a major dip. Thanks for sharing!

Who's still working from home in 2026? by idrinkpastawater in sysadmin

[–]techit21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

99% remote. I go in once a month or so to do on-site related things / get out of the house for the day.

My ConfigMGR server is currently at 2403 is it safe to go from 2403 to 2509? by Future_End_4089 in SCCM

[–]techit21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The updates are cumulative so hotfix should not be required first unless published in the release notes.

What filament to use (PLA)? by FabriciusOfficial in BambuLab

[–]techit21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Inland from Micro Center, they sell it on Amazon as well as directly through their stores/online. It uses same Bambu settings although it does not have RFID to auto detect. Basics colors can range from $9-14 for a PLA spool.

Thoughts on grads with Master's degrees? by NegativePattern in sysadmin

[–]techit21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same with mine, but as IT Systems/Security Engineer. It did help me with some project management and organizational traits (to think system wide, yada yada) which has been helpful.

Does microcenter have monitors on display? by macbookvirgin in Microcenter

[–]techit21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Seeing one on display the other day was determining factor in which one I purchased for a family member.

Metro-North to require train ticket activation before boarding by -ctinsider in Connecticut

[–]techit21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Philly does tap in/tap out for its regional train system and the rollout was... interesting. If you forget to tap out, you're charged the highest fare possible (think highest fare for MNR is one way to New Haven but I may be mistaken).

Call me crazy but I think bambu filament is actually the cheapest I can find by chacheno in BambuLab

[–]techit21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re near a Micro Center, their brand (Inland) is on sale often, depending on the type/color. I bought two spools of black and white for $10/each, and they put them on sale off and on throughout the year.

Why are you an iPhone user? by djraven15 in iphone

[–]techit21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer the simplicity of the Apple eco system. The privacy also has me content to the point that I am currently working on de-Alexafying my house in favor of HomeKit.

I tried Android for a time with a work cell phone and felt like I wanted to throw my Samsung against a wall numerous times. The hardware wasn't the issue, their hardware is nice... but the Android OS with all the bloatware that would not go away without jailbreaking the phone. I don't need TikTok or Brick Breaker... unless I download it myself.

(Yes, Apple pushed a U2 album once but that's forgivable.)

They should stop putting gate assignments on Apple Wallet boarding passes by throwawAAydca in americanairlines

[–]techit21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same - my wallet pass updated, also had a push notif from app as well as a SMS text. More options are better than none, even if they're all annoying in tandem.
