  I've used Logitech trackballs for over 20 years now. Been using the M570 both at work and at home for quite a while. As for keyboards, I've also used various ergonomic keyboards (mostly logitech and MS) for the past 20 years. For the past 10+ years, my keyboard of choice is an Adesso PCK-208B...definitely not compatible with a tight workspace, but it works well for me. Initially bought it because, well, I'm cheap, and so was it. Awesome thing about having a ergo keyboard plus trackball at home: Visitor: Can I use your computer? Me: Sure, help yourself Visitor (looks puzzled staring at keyboard/trackball combo): Nevermind Me (Grinning): Suit yourself

  @wrx7m said in Two or three screens. what is your choice? or just one.: @wirestyle22 said in Two or three screens. what is your choice? or just one.: My stepfather has 4 that are linked to different machines via software the simulates the mouse movement across screens seamlessly. He likes having Fedora but also has to have windows for some in house applications. I use 1 at work and two at home. Syngergy? It was Synergy btw

  Would be more interesting, I think, to see things like post count and other kinds of activity.

Changes the hue depending on the time of day or can be manually set/scheduled. I think RedShift does that on Fedora, but I've never tried. Yes, it does, I just tried.

  @JaredBusch said in A recommendation for Buffalo NASes (or at least their support): I do prefer Synology over Buffalo though. HW wise, the main argument for synology over buffalo here in Italy is if you use a NAS as a primary file server: no Terastation 5000 has redundant powersupply, nor easy maintainance is allowed on site. If power suppl. blows: byebye data, you are KO for a couple of days. synology is really well engineered. I'm thinking specifically at TS5400r vs rs815rp+ (also buffalo do not provides units populated with 8TB disks (not yet... hell 8TB in a single disk, brrr))

  Circle has evolved much more to even pn the 4G service. I have my own review of it that I can share. It is actually not controlled by DNS but rather by device. I had it for two months before the 4G service as a trial and worked as intended but the hardest part was to control it remotely, I needed to be at home or my wife and the Android apps wasn't that great. I would think Untangle can do the sam as well. I can share my review if you want. To be honest I am using OpenDNs right now.

  From a high level it reads simpler than what had to be done with Server 2012 R2. Still not sure I would use it in production though.

  @ntozier said in Buffalo NAS Return Policy Review: Maybe the person you spoke to didn't realize if was just for a single drive? I mean I find the some non-technical users think of a Tower as the "hard drive". Here is a quote from him: "And that was for the entire NAS with two 4TB drives (I only needed one drive)!!!"

  Veeam is a great product, and it has saved my bacon numerous times. It has so many features people just don't realize even exist. And their support has always been stellar. Thanks for sharing. We had an issue not long ago where one of our SQL databases would throw a backup error in Veeam and bomb the backup job. Support helped me figure out there was some corruption within the database that needed to be resolved first and even gave some guidance on how to go about clearing up the corruption. Without the help from their support we might have been further corrupted and had this cause us so much more heartache down the road.

I'm the developer for the Reports Plugin (the new and improved reporting module for osTicket 1.10). I just wanted to drop in and say hello as well, I'll likely be lurking around anything osTicket related or anything else that catches my fancy while I'm scrolling through. Thanks, Scott Awesome! Great to have you here.

  @dafyre said in Atera RMM: @Breffni-Potter said in Atera RMM: Looks like a compelling product but I can't touch it until they have an approach to data handling and so on. What do you mean by this? In essence, they have no terms & conditions for their online backup service. This is important. Zero policy or mention about data security, A US owned company holding EU data is a big deal. Every provider has this, anyone who doesn't, run a mile. I did email their support to query this, all I got was that the data was hosted on Microsoft Azure and here's a list of technical things we do to protect the data. No HTTPS on the customer portal, yes customer information should be protected. It's a real shame because it's a great price point, solid feature-set (Webroot intergration, woo!) but I'm really nervous about trusting it with client data. I specifically asked about US/EU data rules and they didn't really answer the question. Not a good first sign. For those in the UK or EU, you would be giving a two fingered salute to your data protection laws by using this product as it stands. It is not enough that Azure is the hosting platform, the regulations insist that the provider (In this case Atera) who has control over the rented infrastructure adheres to certain steps and procedures.

  I had one of these (older model) Of course only had a one year warranty and at 13 months it starting having a problem where it would not power up. sometimes unplugging the battery would do the trick, but that required using a torq driver to remove the bottom. I have no desire to ever own one of these again.

  I see tihngs like that becoming common place. I think (and am suprised we haven't already seen many) HDMI docks for phones that do what that video does. I know one exists for Note 4. It's like $40 bucks. I may get one. But essentially, dock your phone to a device that has USB support for keyboard & mouse, and an HDMI connection, and BAM! instant computer. I've done it a few times with my tablet and a bluetooth keyboard. It's kinda neat, but not quite as useful without a trackball.

  We had repeated cold calls from AVG, no matter how many times we said no, they kept phoning and phoning...Not going to be using their products until they change their culture.
